A few people are under the mistaken belief that to jailbreak 3GS phones is impossible, but this is not true. What I'm about to lay out for you is a simple step by step how-to manual to crack and jailbreak these kinds of mobile devices. After you get your hands on the requisite software utilities you can often get this done in an estimated half an hour.

1. If you want to do a complete unlock of your mobile device it is necessary for you to jailbreak it and to do this you will need the genuine Apple IPSW. Attach the phone to it's plug and after that click the restore button. You will need to select that you agree to do a back-up of the Apple phone and then you will need to download the app to restore it. As soon as the device displays the download pop-up message come up on the left portion of the phone's LCD screen, disconnect the phone. You do not in reality want to restore it; you just need to get the IPSW file.

2. So you've downloaded the file - now open redsn0w and click on "browse". In the case that you are downloading thru Apple iTunes, select the iPhone2, 1_3.0 7A1 file - it will be in the library under the folder for iPhone Software Updates; in sub-account that says user.

3. Hit Ok. Then pick the button that says "next", you ought to get to where the kernel is in order to start compiling the customized firmware that is used to crack the mobile device. After completion of the loading procedure you'll be queried as to which options you want to load. Click the check box on the Icy and Cydia boxes and click "next" to permit redsn0w to finish putting together the firmware.

4. After the app is loaded, redsn0w will put your mobile unit into DFU mode. Be cognizant that 3GS phones are not all the same when it comes to DFU mode vis a vis older models of phones. Carefully follow the instructions - disconnect, power off and plug in the unit when it tells you to. Depress the home button until the logo reappears. The app will then begin the jailbreak.

5. Next up, you'll need to load "Icy". You might have to wait for the sources to compile. After it does so, then you should tap the edit key at the upper left corner . After this, click the button labelled "add" to type in: http://repo666.ultrasn0w.com inside of the source location. Pick the more sizeable add key to wrap up the source add-on.

6. Whilst you are in the folder for the Icy app, you ought to scroll toward the bottom of the screen and pick the key that says "Utilities". Be certain that you hit "Utilities", not "Utility". At the bottom of the utilities screen "ultrasn0w" should be seen". Select this and then Press "Install". After this installs, your jailbreak 3GS is done - simpley reboot the phone and you are completely done!
