Guys I wanna update my 3gs from 0s 4.0 to the latest which i think is 4.2. Is it as simple as updating the os from my itunes and the just going to jailbreakme and have cydia again. Im with meteor and have everything running (MMS, internet, carrier logo) working perfect.

is your phone factory unlocked or ultrasnow unlocked

14murphy

Im pretty sure its not factory unlocked as I bought it off a guy on Adverts.

massy086

well you would ereally need to be sure because if u update you could kill your unlock if its not factory

14murphy

Im nearly postivied its not factory unlocked. When I got it it already had Cydia installed and would take my meteor sim. I just had to add the meteor carrier bundle

massy086

go in to sourse on cydia and see if ultrasnow is in it dont update

14murphy

Yeh it is. So is there no way I can update it ?

massy086

what baseband are you on you could save your ssh blob with tiny umbrealla just google it maybe

14murphy

Ever ? Crappidy. Could I not just jailbreak then unlock no ? Is there even a huge difference between the OS's ?

Is it possible to jailbreak unlock on 4.2.1, even though I have done the teethered jailbreak for this firmware with redsnow last month?

I attempted it this morning with no joy.

Used Tiny Umbrella to save my shsh.
Tried creating my own custom firmware with snowbreeze 2.2, didn't complete, got an error saying it couldn't create the an activex component.

Ran greenpoison, that worked fine. Had to run redsnow after that but the program crashed everytime.

Phone is grand, so I'd imagine that firmware isn't sorted yet, or I don't follow instructions very well...

massy086

Spazdarn

Yeah thanks, I ran it twice and it failed so haphazardly I gave it another go last night and got Loader this time! Got Cydia and everythings right in the world again! Cheers

Hey, just bought an iPhone off a friend in the North, its on 4.2.1(8C148a) and I'm having a bit of a problem trying to jailbreak it, I went through the guide on iClarified but apparently Ive downloaded the wrong version of firmware (according to iTunes when I go to hit restore) despite sticking to the one they suggested. Anyone else have this problem?

Edit: Probably should have mentioned its on o2 UK and I want to keep it on that because I live on the border.

It would work if you get it unlocked. Not possible at the moment. Make sure you get a GSM phone and not a CDMA phone
