Swest: Did you capture before 3.1? I think the window closed to briefly that most didn't get 3.0.1 captured but only got 3.0. I believe I saw a tweet by Saurik that it only shows the earliest version that was captured. I am on 3.1 JB but my cydia says 3.0 on file.

3.1 wasnt even out when i captured

I was able to go back down to 3.0 this afternoon from 3.1.2....I had to do it twice, and then I used redsn0n to JB 3.0, and then I used PwnageTool to build a custom ipsw, and installed by itunes...Done!

Were you able to do the hosts thing to change it? Last time you said you had issue with sudo.

Swest did you try restoring 3.0 and 3.0.1, getting the message for both?

Check to see if the etc/hosts/ is setup correctly.
