First official photos of a jailbroken 3G[s] released. Tool not too far away!

[A_DuB187]

I have faith in the Chronic Devs. Im sure we will see something real real soon.

[icyred64]

Chronics Devs and Geohot ROCK i have lost COMPLETE faith in Dev Team....
1) yes 3gs will be jailbrable when it comes out
2) yes 3gs is jailbreakable and will be out soon
3) sorry we have it jailbraked now but will wait till after 3.0.1 when apple fixes the bug and we cant jailbreak it anymore.

GO CHRONIC DEVS AND GEOHOT YOU GUYS ROCK

[dayloon]

Where did this rumour about chronic dev releasing a tool come from? I'm beginning to think it was made up

[limppp]

The only way that a jailbreak doesn't happen before 3.0.1 is if Apple releases that update today.

Is that a hint?

[reeko]

It came from stealth bravo and his inside knowledge, I was skeptical to begin with and even more so now, although everything has gone quiet across the board so both dev teams + geohot are working hard on it, but there hasn't been a hint of an actual release date from either of them.

The dev team always release a mobileterminal screenshot showing that the phone is jailbroken, like geohot has. Seeing as they haven't this time, I don't think they have a jailbreak up and running.

Geohot does and it's just a matter of packaging it into a tool with some kind of UI which seems to be taking a long time

seeing as chronic have no previous track record whatsoever I am surprised at many peoples reactions on here. I'll make my decision when the tool(s) are released, until then chronic are pretty non exisent to me

[rel1215]

someone needs to give the dev team a little business 101 lesson.......production checks for the 3gs show 7 million iphone 3gs produced in the june quarter.....these are all iphones that are guaranteed to come shipped with 3.0.....exactly how many iphones are they expecting to sell before the release benefits enough people?


i remember getting my wife here first iphone this past october....i can't remember where we were at that point in 2.x.....but her phone came loaded with 2.0.

[LGgeek]

I think Apple hopes all the dev teams with their various fan boy clubs will help the jailbreak effort self destruct. I have respect for ALL teams and all involved in the effort.

@StealthBravo

You have officially got my hopes up and i want to know do you actually speak to Geo & chronic dev team?

did they tell you they will be releasing a JB soon?

do you know more then you tell us here?

what is ur prediction of release of JB?

so you felt the need to steal his AVY?

[M4tt Dam0n]

I smell a drunknbass here lmao.

[Araya213]

I can never get those zagg shields on right. on my 2g it was a nightmare! I'm thinking about sending my 3gs to cpjr to get a custom paint job and have him put the shield on for me, as he offers it with the paint job.

I just get the one for the front. Easy as pie. I use an incase slider to protect the back.

[reeko]

I smell a drunknbass here lmao.

hahaha, i sure hope not

[M4tt Dam0n]

I just get the one for the front. Easy as pie. I use an incase slider to protect the back.

Front is useless as the screen does not easily scratch and on the 3GS you are missing on the oleophobic screen. The whole point of having a shield is to avoid bulky cases and keep the sexyness of the iPhone.

imo Zagg is total fail they got the dimensions wrong and the cut isn't good. Was frustrated as hell with it. You should try BestSkinsEver...this one owns but you still have to be patient to align everything.

I smell a drunknbass here lmao.

memories...

[jerrykid323]

Stop.


no problem I am done !!

back on to the subject

[rellim07]

I like bananas. Oh yeah, I want a BJ... I mean the JB for my iphone 3gs.

[mr.sparky]

so you felt the need to defend him? are you his boyfriend? do you suck his ****?

also i did not steal it got it from a different website so ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

NO I DON'T THINK THAT'S IT AT ALL.
YOU SEE YOU LITTLE SNOT NOSED PUNK.WE ARE MORE THEN A FORUM HERE SOME OF US HERE HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR A LITTLE WHILE AND WE HAVE BECOME FRIENDS,NOW I DON'T REALLY EXPECT YOU TO UNDERSTAND THAT (what it means to have friends)and you dont steal from your friends
Didnt your mommy and daddy teach you stealing is wrong?

[StealthBravo]

These answers are not from the teams, they are all just a matter of my opinion and the way I have seen things go down over the past few weeks

@StealthBravo

You have officially got my hopes up and i want to know do you actually speak to Geo & chronic dev team?

I speak with them several times a day. Since the GM release of 3.0, I have been in constant contact.

did they tell you they will be releasing a JB soon?

When the 3GS was released every team, and independent dev started working together to share info. Then geohot started advancing way beyond anyone else (at the time the iphone dev team did not have 3GSs and the chronic dev team only had one member with one), thats why I was asking people to tweet and email the teams offering donations. The dev team and geohot have never got along, not entirely the dev teams fault, geohot works better as an independent anyways. To put this in perspective and this is no disrespect to anyone, geohot is light years ahead of any iphone hacker on the planet. The dude is simply amazing, he cracks stuff effortlessly. Like mentioned before geohot felt disrespected by the dev team (which is valid), at that point he stopped sharing information with them. The chronic dev team is very good, they were responsible for the 24kpwn exploit. That exploit is the bootrom exploit that geohot and everyone is using for the iPhone 3GS. Now, the chronic dev team and geohot are in the same boat as far as feeling like rejects from the dev team. Because of this they have a common desire of wanting to get a tool out and beat the dev team to the release.

do you know more then you tell us here?

I do know more. I try to tell you all as much as I can tho.

what is ur prediction of release of JB?

I am hoping as soon as possible

You are the coolest, and sexist moderator on MMi

Thanks, I appreciate that

Front is useless as the screen does not easily scratch and on the 3GS you are missing on the oleophobic screen. The whole point of having a shield is to avoid bulky cases and keep the sexyness of the iPhone.

Nobody really knows if the front is useless on the 3GS yet. Sure the screen is tough, but is the oleophobic coating? If it's not, it might end up looking scratched even when the glass is pristine. I'll let you be the guinnea pig on that one.

Zagg isn't the best, and the cut does suck, but It's easily obtainable at my local Best Buy.

On a side note. I have noticed a couple of differences in installing the Zagg on the 3GS. First, when you apply your solution soaked Zagg to your 3GS screen, don't expect to be able to move it around freely like you can with the 3G, that sucker grips tight and is very hard to move. Also, after squeegeeing out all of the bubbles, it would be unmovable on the 3G. On the 3GS, I can still move sections of the corner a bit if I press down hard with the squeegee. This is a plus in my opinion in case you notice allignment issues later on, but I wonder if it will actually stick once it's done curing.
