    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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 655 ✭✭✭14murphy


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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,851 ✭✭✭massy086


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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 655 ✭✭✭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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,851 ✭✭✭massy086

    So can you unlock a phone 4.2.1 with 03.10.01 now?

    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...

    Sorry, not sure on that as Vodafone unlocked mine for me.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,986 ✭✭✭Spazdarn


    I did but I didn't get Cydia...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,851 ✭✭✭massy086


    did you get a freen app called loader if so click it and install cydia


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,986 ✭✭✭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
