Just gotten myself an iPhone (iPhone 3GS 16GB - SingTel) but I am not sure whether it is fine to jailbreak it or not. I was planning to try out blackrain but my mates told me that there are a higher than normal chance of bricking it... Is this true?

QUOTE(teikwing @ Dec 3 2009, 08:40 AM) iPhone has almost zero chance of bricking TBH. Thanks for the reply - just one more question - must I determine the bootrom number before using blackrain? As I just got my iPhone yesterday, I am wondering my iPhone is one of those newer versions that will hit problem like everytime I reboot my iPhone (after blackrain), it will go into DFU mode automatically? do a search via the 'Search' button. the topic has been discussed numerous times.  Don't really understand what it means that I must use blackrain everytime I need to reboot - does it mean that I use blackrain to reboot, or I need to restore my iPhone after reboot and then blackrain it again? |

QUOTE(teikwing @ Dec 3 2009, 10:31 AM) for iPhones with new bootrom, the jailbreaking process is the same. Thank God that you ain't in front of me now else I would have given you a bear hug for the prompt and perfect reply that I have been looking for. Thanks a lot mate for the explanation (and not simply directing me to the search function) the only thing to take note of for your unit is, everytime you power off/reboot your unit, you will need to connect it to your PC and run blackra1n to rejailbreak. that's what tethered jailbreaking means.  Just one LAST question, is it possible to start up the iPhone (from DFU) without re-jailbreak? |
