    Blackra1n= hacktivation and jailbreak. Blacksn0w = unlock

    Basically just plug your phone up, run blackrain, let it do it's thing, then open blackra1n on your phone and select unlock and install. And your done. Only thing you need to be aware of is to make sure your running 3.1.2

    Make sure you're connected to wifi first.

    yeah you just need a working wifi connection

    Just install the "sn0w" by it self, and test everything out to make sure it worked.

    After install cydia or rock, or both if you want

    weird.. have you try to use any local hotspot and see if you can use the wifi?? or reset your router?

    you won't be able to use your tmobile sim until you install blacksn0w using blackra1n

    I am having the same problem. I am getting so frustrated with people telling me to install Blacksn0w through Blackra1n. I WOULD IF I COULD! My iPhone was already jailbroke through blackra1n and was going good for a couple of weeks. Then one day my phone went on the blitz. It kept turning itself off and then wouldn't turn on past the apple screen. I figured AT&T somehow infiltrated it once again. I had no choice but to restore and try and use blackra1n again. I get all the way to the part where I have to go into blackra1n on my iPhone to download blacksn0w but it says I have no internet connection. I'm going to find a wifi hotspot today and see if it'll work from there. I will keep you posted. I have been trying to fix my phone for days and I'm so frustrated.
