iPhone 3g and needing 4.0 for apps
Why would or need to upgrade the phone to 4.0 for apps? I thought 4.0 and above add no new features to a 3g and older.
Can we have a fake 4.0 for our working stable legal jail broken phones.

IOS 4.XX for 3g has added features too, the way you put into folders, it is up to you if you want the new features. If you want to upgrade , go for the 4.1 ipsw with Snowbreeze 2.0.2 for windows.

No no and No, just read 1000's of posts of problems Jailbreaking with snowbreeze and you cannot unlock as well since the Baseband will now be 5.14 not 5.12 or 5.13 for Ultrasnow.
You see people like to think its simple, its not, many Iphones have been bricked by the darn process
I will have to wait till redsnow can unlock on windows and there is an unlock for 5.14 baseband!

I will advise you to do some research and understanding before you make such a statement. You have no clue what you are talking about and I am not going to explain to you since you are too smart.

Its right on the blog from just 2 weeks ago friend! You do not have to be that way!
So you can unlock the phone with 4.1????? Really????
You know if you are going to post a comment like that ( your so superior) then why not at least show the evidence I have it wrong? LOL wow what a response!
Jailbreaking is not unlocking!
How to Jailbreak iOS 4.1 with Snowbreeze 2.0.1 [Tutorial] 66 comments just on snowbreeze site alone with major problems all from Sept 21st till now.
I can't afford to brick my phone just for 4.1
Honestly this site is unfriendly
and I seem not to get that much help at times, a shame really, my fault for using an Apple product I guess.Last edited by DRFP; 10-03-2010 at 09:48 PM.

Read carefully, I didn't ask you to restore to stock 4.1 ipsw.
If your firmware is at 3.1.3 and bb is at 05.12.xx, and if you use Snowbreeze to upgrade to 4.1, your bb is still at 05.12.xx, it will preserve your bb at what you had before.
Certainly if you have updated your baseband to 05.14.xx, and you downgraded your firmware in order to jailbreak again at 3.1.3 and then back up to 4.1 with Snowbreeze, you will not be able to unlock. Snowbreeze will not touch your bb and bb cannot be downgraded too.
Yes, this site is unfriendly only to those who makes false statement and trying to be smart.
You don't have to upgrade and no one is forcing you to do so, stay at 3.1.3 is your best choice.Last edited by iYeow; 10-03-2010 at 09:45 PM. Reason: Automerged Doublepost

Apple forces an upgrade to use some Apps in the App store, was not being smart, it is true that the current methods are not 100% safe and can brick the phone, to post otherwise is not responsible.
what I don't get is why so many people apologizes for the crap Apple develops or does? These phones should be easy to unlock and easy to use other programs from places like cydia, its not illegal and not immoral its Apple who is in the wrong.
Just recently the Iphone 4 antenna problem, yes a case fixes it OMG.

Apple doesn't control the apps that require 4.x...the app dev does. No jb method will brick an iPhone, it's generally user error.
For instance, the most common brick occurs when people with new boot 3GS goes and install Spirit2pwn, they reboot and next thing you know it's bricked and can't be restored. Worst case scenario. I've seen this happen before too and someone managed to fix it by draining the battery then restoring.
I don't believe it when people say they bricked their phones with a jb tool. I believe they used these tools incorrectly and they bricked the phone themselves. And in regards your your previous post, Redsn0w for Windows is already out but it is a jb tool, it has never had the ability to unlock any phone except the 2G. And Sn0wbreeze doesn't cause problems like bricking the phone, it just causes minor issues like Push or YouTube not working.
And those minor issues can be fixed by some patches in Cydia or simply de-selecting activate in Sn0wbreeze so it doesn't hactivateLast edited by i.Annie; 10-09-2010 at 11:09 AM. Reason: Automerged Doublepost
