I know that you may accidentally update your 3GS (New boot rom) to 3.1.3… Unfortunately you didn’t backup your ECID SHSH… Same as me
I can’t find anyway to jailbreak my iPhone … Here is the list of what I done in order to jailbreak my iPhone…
It seems that we should wait until the releases of OS 3.2 … Sorry!
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)

In this guide I want to help you to choose the right firmware for your device with the speed in mind. I already test all firmware from 1.1.4 to 3.2.1 (the latest firmware as I write this article) on my iPhone 2G.
The speed factors are as below:
1.x
There is nothing to say about 1.x family because there is no AppStore on this family, So JUST FORGET IT!
2.x
If you remember the early versions of 2.x family (2.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2, 2.1) is full of bugs so everyone decide to upgrade to newer version as soon as Apple release them. But by the releases of 2.2 the game changes. It’s stable, fast and accurate in action and also if you jailbreak it, it will bring all the good things that you need to enjoy your iPhone such as AppStore, Copy/Paste (clippy), Video recording (Cycorder), Bluetooth file transfer (iBluetooth), Background application (Backgrounder), etc.
3.x
The main feature of OS 3 is the “Push notification”. Actually there is no more notable things in this version (you can find full list here), all the things that they add to this version was previously resolved by jailbreakers. Beside that if you have to unlock your 2G using any kind of PWNing tools you will lose the Push ability, after that you will found a way called “push fix” by Dev-Team that bring push to your 2G but when you enable it, first of all your device will works very slowly and also you will get lots of false push alerts. The speed impact of the 3.x family on 2G was very ridicules, I think Apple intentionally do this in order to force 2G users to buy an iPhone 3GS. It may also happens because of jailbreaking.
Conclusion
If you want to have a fast iPhone 2G I suggest you to use OS 2.2 (if you already upgrade to 3.x you can easily downgrade it, i will post something about that in near future).
If you upgrade to 3.1.2 :
If don’t upgrade to 3.1.2 (stay on 2.2)
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.

Look at this:
What do you think? Apple can detect cracked ipa! hah!?
Today I got this message while using IM+. I didn’t see any kind of limitation in IM+ after that message but I think jailbreakers have to find a way to resolve this issue. I think it’s time to update the cracking process, Installous, etc.
[iPhone 2G - OS 3.1.2]
DevTeam released PwnageTool 3.1.4 for Mac OS X that support iPhone OS 3.1.2 (iPhone 2G/3G/3GS, iPod Touch 1G/2G)!
This release allows your baseband to remain unlocked at 3.1.2, but it does not unlock a new baseband put there by restoring to official 3.1.x. It is super important that people who need the unlock to understand they can keep it only by starting at 3.0 (or earlier) and updating solely to custom IPSWs that don’t update the baseband. For those who have been onboard the “unlock train”, simply install ultrasn0w via Cydia once you’ve restored to your custom IPSW. Don’t forget to turn off the “3G” setting in Settings->General->Network if you use T-Mobile in the U.S.A. SUMMARY: The iPhone 3GS is now supported out of the box in PwnageTool 3.1.4 (or if you have upgraded to 3.1.x in iTunes) The iPod 2G is still supported in PwnageTool 3.1.4 but you must already be jailbroken (we’ll update this if there’s a big demand from non-jailbroken ipt2G owners) The iPod touch 3G is NOT supported

SUMMARY:
The guys at appleturk.net ( makers of iReb – the itunes 16xx error bypasser ) have released iReb 3.1 which solves the crash problem on windows and mac and also, as promised, they have released a tool for 3GS users ( which was a surprise ) that saves your ECID and SHSH so you can downgrade your firmware even after apple releases new firmwares and stops signing the old ones!!!
To download iReb go to http://ih8sn0w.com ( where ‘0′ is a zero ) and click the Windows or Apple logo depending on your OS.
Then, you can run iReb and follow the onscreen instructions.
For the custom firmware, you can either create one using this on mac on download one and use it for windows.
