Posted by DjRaz55 Saturday, October 24, 2009

  1. First Create a Folder named “Pwnage” or whatever you like. Download iPhone 3GS 3.1 Firmware and PwnageTool 3.1.3 into that folder. Also do not forget to download Latest Version of iTunes, if you don’t have it
  2. Connect your iPhone to iTunes. Launch PwangeTool from the folder where you downloaded it.
  3. Now click on the “Expert Mode” and select your device “iPhone 3GS” in this case and click on the Blue Arrow.
  4. In the next step, Pwanage Tool will automatically find the ispw file, if it doesnt then browse for it and select the proper file. It is the file which you have downloaded in the 1st step.
  5. In the next step, there will be a General Setting Screen.
    If you are using an Official service provider (i.e. AT&T) you do not need to “Unlock Baseband”, therefore you can Uncheck “Activate the phone” and Check “Enable baseband update”.
    If You are using an Unofficial service provider (i.e. T-Mobile) then Uncheck “Enable baseband update” So you can enjoy Ultrasn0w with the 3.1
  6. Next Step is of Cydia settings, Check whatever apps you want and then click on the blue Button.
  7. Now click on the Build button and then on blue arrow to begin the Pwnage process
  8. Now select a location to save your .ipsw file. It will take 10-15 mins to compete Custom iPhone 3GS 3.1 IPSW file. Enter the Admin password when asked.
  9. PwangeTool will ask you “has your iPhone 3G been pwned before?”, if you do not know then click on NO.
  10. Now the most important step. You will need to put your iPhone in DFU mode. Switch off your iPhone. Then press the following keys in sequence. Hold the home button for 5 seconds then hold the Home and Power buttons for 10 seconds after that release the Power button while continuing holding the Home button until your iPhone is in DFU mode. If you get it wrong the first time you can try it again. Once your iPhone is in DFU mode a message will be displayed.
  11. Now Launch iTunes to restore your iPhone. In iTunes, hold the Alt/Option key and click Restore. Browse and Select the custom IPSW file you created in the above steps (iPhone2,1_3.1_7C144_Custom_Restore.ipsw) and click on “Open”. The iTunes will now restore the firmware, this can take upto 10 mins and your done.

Your iPhone will restart automatically and your iPhone 3GS OS 3.1 is Jailbreaked.
