iPhone OS 3.0 Jailbreak Released ( Mac )

iPhone Dev-Team just released the official iPhone OS 3.0 jailbreaking tools. Everything works including youtube but this version is for Mac users only!

Finally iPhone Dev-Team released iPhone OS 3.0 Jailbreaking tools. Youtube problem is fixed, so everything should be running smooth. Unfortunately at this time, it is available only for Mac users.

This is the low down on our tools for use with the 3.0 firmware from Apple, read the whole post in full before attempting anything. Because of some bugs and unexpected changes this will be a multipart release, starting with the release of PwnageTool for Mac OS X. QuickPwn for Mac OS X and Windows will follow sometime soon, please don’t bug us about it, we are working flat out to get everything finished to release them.


#  GOLDEN RULE: If you are using a 3G iPhone with yellowsn0w and rely on yellowsn0w to obtain cellular service, then you should NOT use PwnageTool right now. UltraSn0w is not included with this release and therefore your baseband will be locked and unable to use an operator other than the official one it was bought for. UltraSn0w will be release via APT (cydia and icy) soon. If you have an original iPhone (1st generation) then 3.0 unlock works with this PwnageTool release.
# Yellowsn0w in its current form will NOT work with the baseband version that is present in the 3.0 update, you will need Ultrasn0w, which will be released sometime soon, Ultrasn0w will work with all iPhone 3G models (but not 3GS), even ones that were previously unlockable, Ultrasn0w (when available) will be released via APT (this means you can get it via Cydia or Icy).
# Please read all parts of this post before downloading and using these tools.
# Read items 1, 2 and 3 again and again.
# At the bottom of this post are the bittorrent files for the 3.0 capable version of PwnageTool.
# This app is suitable for the recent 3.0 release.
# PwnageTool will NOT work for the iPhone 3GS.
# PwnageTool WILL work for Original iPhone (1st Generation), Original iPod touch (1st Generation) and the iPhone 3G.

iPhone OS 3.0 Jailbreak Is Delayed

I know that all of you are waiting for the official iPhone OS 3.0 jailbreak. I am too. Dev-Team announced that it will come this week and since they announced that iPhone OS 3.0 official unlock will be available on friday we all assumed that the jailbreak will come wednesday night or at least thursday morning (at least i was ).

iPhone Dev-Team just announced new minor problems that they are trying to fix, and they probably will release a preliminary jailbreak for those of you who cant wait anymore… :

* We have two issues that we’ve been trying to resolve:
1. There are new 3.0 complications with YouTube.app if you’re on a hacktivated (unofficially activated) device
2. There’s a bug in Apple’s new version of asr that our custom IPSW’s are tickling and causing crashes on, on some devices.  (For the nerdy or curious among us, the details of that bug were tweeted by planetbeing a month ago.)
* As of Thursday morning we now have a workaround for #2.  For #1, we’ll try our best to get it fixed but we may end up releasing a preliminary jailbreak in which YouTube doesn’t work for hacktivated devices, and then follow that up with a more complete jailbreak when we can.
