Okay, sorry for asking but just wanna recomfirm. My iPhone 3Gs unlocked with version 3.0.1 can be unlocked with redsn0w right? I don't have to downgrade the version to version 3.0 right? As for the problem I was facing earlier, my redsn0w exe couldn't detect any ipsw because I downloaded the 3.0.1 ipsw right? So I gotta download the 3.0 ipsw from the link above. Just wanna re-comfirm.

I think u'd need to downgrade to 3.0..

Prior to my attempt to JB, I had 3.0.1 installed and couldn't get the redsn0w to recognize the file.. until i downgrade to 3.0 and it managed to recognize to file now..

Another problem.. when the JB process started, redsn0w crashed.. any idea y? I'm using version 0.8

Here are what I did to JB with Redsn0w:

Downloaded the following:
iPhone2,1_3.0_7A341_Restore.ipsw (version 3.0) and redsn0w 0.8

1. Downgraded from version 3.0.1 using iTunes 8.2
2. Restore my iPhone 3G[S] to iPhone2,1_3.0_7A341_Restore.ipsw
3. Run redsn0w 0.8 and select the same ipsw file as above
4. Unchecked Icy
5. DONE! icon_rolleyes.gif

I had updated my iPhone 3G[S] with version 3.0.1 using iTunes prior to jailbreaking but unfortunately, redsn0w was not able to recognize the same version I downloaded in Post #2 (iPhone2,1_3.0.1_7A400_Restore.ipsw - version 3.0.1). Thus, I restored it with iPhone2,1_3.0_7A341_Restore.ipsw and redsn0w managed to recognize it.

Encountered another problem during the jailbreaking process - redsn0w crashed and terminated. Then found out Icy may be causing this. I run redsn0w again but this time with Icy unchecked. I was able to see the jailbreaking process on my iPhone 3G[S]! Cydia is in the springboard/winterboard!

One question: My iPhone 3G[S] is an officially unlocked set from Maxis. So, do I still need to run the unlocking process?

Thanks!

Maxis/officially-unlocked sets = no unlocking needed.

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/871684

the reason why redsn0w is unable to recognize OS 3.0.1 is 'cause it's not written to recognize it, yet. it only supports up to OS 3.0.

hence, to jailbreak an 3GS on 3.0.1, restore thru iTunes with 3.0.1 but jailbreak using redsn0w with 3.0.

so does this mean after jailbreak, i can update it with version 3.0.1?

answer is NO... updated iphone 3GS to firmware 3.0.1 then only jailbreak.

if u jailbreak first, then update firmware to 3.0.1 it will wipe out all d jb stuff
