Few hours ago Dev-Team released their new PwnageTool that can jailbreak iPhone OS 3.1.3. Unfortunately this version can’t jailbreak iPodTouch 3G nor iPhone 3GS!
iPhone 3GS users still be aware to update to this new version of OS (3.1.3), if you update accidentally like me you have to wait until the next releases of Dev-Team tools.
You can find the whole article here at Dev-team Blog.

Once again Alex posted some useful stuff about developing for a jailbroken iPhone. Below you can find it! Vital stats:
Let’s do it.
UPDATE: Corrected a problem with the run script build phase: corrected the directory names for the new version and copied the new phase that doesn’t include “resource_rules.plist.”
The Goal: we want to be able to click “build and go” in Xcode and get the app we’re working on to load to the phone and start up. More than that, we want to be able to DEBUG on the thing!
Abstract: Our methodology is slightly different this time around. This time we’re going to tell Xcode that it doesn’t need to codesign for iPhoneOS targets, then we’re going to tell it don’t codesign for iPhoneOS targets, then we’re going to tell it, well, actually, codesign but do it using our script, not your built in method.

Apple today released a new version of iPhone OS. This update contains 3GS baseband upgrade (05.12.01) so BE WARNED. DON’T UPDATE YOUR iPHONE 3GS.
There is not any notable change in this firmware.
iPhone 2G users : Can use redsn0w (download here) in order to jailbreak it. Please note that you should have firmware 3.1.2 file and you must point redsn0w to that files after updating (or restoring) to 3.1.3.
iPhone 3G users : If you need to unlock your iPhone baseband (using ultrasn0w, etc) DON’T UPDATE TO 3.1.3. otherwise use the above method.
iPhone 3GS users: BE WARNED. DON’T UPDATE YOUR iPHONE AT THIS TIME.
iPod Touch 1G users : Same as iPhone 2G.
iPod Touch 2G users : Do not update to 3.1.3
iPod Touch 3G users : Do not update to 3.1.3
The above information maintained from Dev-Team blog
Dev-Team released the new version of redsn0w that support iPhone OS 3.1.x.
You can download it here:
How is it different from PwnageTool? redsn0w doesn’t require a system restore like PwnageTool does (it doesn’t even use iTunes at all). On the other hand, PwnageTool can prevent your baseband from being upgraded when you upgrade your firmware, preserving your unlock. (redsn0w doesn’t touch your baseband but it doesn’t help preserve it during an upgrade either). redsn0w works by modifying your current filesystem, so your existing baseband, data and applications should remain intact. How is it different from blackra1n? - It uses our original Pwnage bootrom exploit for iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, and iPod 1G. (Because it’s a bootrom exploit, it can’t be fixed by Apple without a new hardware release.) Note that redsn0w 0.9 does use the USB exploit for iPhone 3GS and iPod 2G running 3.1.2, but that exploit will be fixed in Apple’s next FW release. - It offers custom logos and verbose boot - It installs Cydia without needing a separate download - It’s not as fast (but redsn0w handles more variations)

Nothing to say…
I found a new application for iPhone in Cydia called SIManager. You can manage your SIM contact in your iPhone. In this version (1.4 beta) you can also export your contacts to SIM card.
In order to install SIManager you must add the following repo in cydia then select SIManager package and install it.
I remember the first day I got an iPhone, one of my friends had been using one for quiet a while and after a few short minutes of using his, I thought I gotta have one.
before that I was a long time Palm user and I really couldn’t work with buttons and I thought the iPhones keyboard would be hard to use but being an Apple fan and really loving the iPhone, I went and got one, at first i didn’t know much about jailbreaking or stuff like that but slowly I begun learning, the first time I jailbroke a phone was nearly a month after I got mine, it felt good and I wanted to learn more so I didn’t stop, in fact after only two years now, I have become what I consider a veteran in iPhone jailbreaking and unlocking, the knowledge I have is only gained by experience and cannot be written or given to others in anyway.

If you check the appulo.us site you will see a question there! I found a list of passwords for questions if you know more please share in comment section. Thank you!
There is a new version of Installous 2.5. With installous you can easily search through hundreds of cracked AppStore apps then download and install them with a single click! This version of installous is work under OS 3.1.2 (3.x I think).
I can’t find any sufficient change in it’s interface but I think that this version is more stable than previous version. In order to install it you have to add the following repository on your Cydia: http://cydia.hackulos.us

Today I found that when I click on a thumbnail in iPhoto 09 I get an image that is different than I clicked on and when I click to go back to thumbnails area the proper image shows in the thumbnail area for about a quarter second and then it reverts to the wrong image …
The problem is in iPhoto cache and we have to rebuild the thumbnail cache! To do so close iPhoto, hold down cmd-opt-shift, then open iPhoto you will see the following message appears on the screen, then you can rebuild whole library!
Note that rebuild process can take quite a lot of time, anywhere from 5 mins to several hours according to library size and selected options.
After clicking rebuild, iPhoto will start rebuilding library.
