Just ran it on my iPad. Working sweet so far. Only have sbsettings installed. Will try backgrounder later.


Have NES3 running now. Pretty cool playing it doubled up.

So people on 3.1.2 with tethered jailbreaks and shshs backed up can just restore to 3.1.2 then use spirit , then use blacksn0w to unlock through cydia ??

I did it on my iPod touch 3g 8gb 3.1.2 and it jailbroke fine but when I tried to turn it back on again I get the Apple logo and the turning bars in a circle in the middle as if it was respringing and it doesn't progress anywhere from there!

Has this happened to anyone else?

Worked a treat through a windows VM for me (edit on a 3G running 3.1.3)

Same here , Feck any way of getting them back ???

Worked great. If you get an error code c0000005 on windows 7, just right click on the spirit icon and set compatibility to windows 98.

avira is tellin me that its a virus

my 3GS is on 3.1.2, jailbroken with blackra1n and unlocked via Ultrasnow (i think!).

Its untethered, which is a bit anoying.

Can i use Spirit to jailbreak my phone, so that its tethered? But i also need to have it unlocked (is that possible atm?)

Cheers.

ya have that backwards i think, tethered means ya have to connect and run blackrain if it crashes or goes dead, untethered will work if ya turn it off etc,

if you don't back up your shsh's and then use spirit, can you then use cydia to back them up?

Just to update on what I said earlier about my iPod touch 3G 8GB 3.1.2 freezing on rebot, I overcame that problem by updating to 3.1.3

Can I unlock my iPhone now with this jailbreak or is it still not possible?

Elessar

Still not possible.

costacurta

Any word on when the unlock will be available?

Your man @Comex was quite satisfied with staying with AT&T in America so didn't feel he needed to make it unlocked!

anyone shed some light on this please

matc66

If I jailbreak now my Iphone 3g2 with os 3.1.3, can I still upgrade to OS4?

Totally new to this. If anyone knows of a good set of faqs or an intro to the whole thing I would appreciate it. I understand how to jailbreak just not the advantages!

guil

i'm the same, just flutin around with it tryin to get the hang of it, i've only installed sbsettings so far
ya will be able to upgrade to os4 but the jb will be gone

matc66

Well I've gone ahead and done it. Lost photos as everyone else did so just restoring now.
What's the best stuff to add to the phone now.
iclarified is a great site.

AntiRip

Although not essential, this is what I find handy anyways if anyone wants to...

Action Menu
Activator
AppLinks
AppS*****
Backgrounder
Categories
Five Icon Dock
FontSwap
GriP - Growl for iPhone
Inst******
MewSeek
ProSwitcher
SBSettings
sbsettingstoggles
StatusNotifier
WinterBoard

Themes
Gradiance Categories
Gradiance V3
AnnMe (is nice)
iPhone OS 4 theme

That's what I use so far anyway and very happy with it. The ****** are from a custom source and can't be mentioned here.

Downloaded spirit says I need new version of iTunes even though I have 9.1.1 any suggestions ??

bertie4evr

That's 'cause your running it on Windows 98/ME compatibility mode, yes?
That's only if you get an error code, if you run it as normal without the compatibility mode then it should work OK.

Eoin_Sheehy

Just to clarify as when you search Spirit Jailbreak on Google you are in danger of downloading spyware and viruses,

this is the official link is http://spiritjb.com/

Virus or unwanted program 'TR/Dropper.Gen [trojan]'
detected in file 'C:\Users\dell\Desktop\Spirit.exe.

Spirit itself is OK but the link on Wired installs a toolbar which is spyware.

Worked fine on my 2G 3.1.3 touch but when I try to install anything from cydia i get the following error message: "The requested modifications cannot be applied due to required dependencies or conflicts that cannot be automatically found or fixed".
Anyone know why this is happening?

cydia is under too much pressure. Try again tomorrow.

Has anyone else got the following: The Application was not installed on the iPhone because an unknown error occurred (Ex8008001)

Yes it will. I did it yesterday

Hey,

I'm currently on a Jailbreak 3.0 iPhone 3g. Should I restore my OS using iTunes, which will bring me to 3.1.3 and then use this jailbreak?

Does this jailbreak all iPhones, ie. 3G, 3GS (on any baseband)?

Thanks,

garlad

So what do I new if I have a 3GS 3.1.2 new bootrom currently running a tethered jailbreak via blackra1n?
Do I restore to 3.1.3 via ITunes, and then run spirit?
If I do this, do I lose all my apps?

I'd stay on 3.1.2, restore if you have your shshs backed up , mixednuts made a guide here before , if you update you update your baseband no unlock for newest one ,so just jailbreak be availbale then

Do what? Restore to 3.1.3 via itunes (lose my existing jailbreak), use spirit, then resync apps via itunes?

guil

I thought ya wanted to know if it worked with 3.1.3

guil wrote: »

I know it works with 3.1.3
I want to know if you have a 3.1.2 tethered jailbreak already, do you need to restore to 3.1.3, then use spirit?

guil

Ah sorry no I wasn't jb before usin spirit

Yes if you have previously jailbroken your iphone using blackra1n, you will have to restore it to the stock apple 3.1.3 and then jailbreak using Spirit

So simple update using iTunes then jailbreak.

It is wise to use something like firmware umbrella or AutoSHSH to keep your blobs before doing any upgrading that way you will eb able to downgrade to 3.1.2 should you ever need to do this (for unlocking purposess or any other reason).
