Few minutes ago, Dev-Team released their new PwnageTool for jailbreaking iPhone OS 3.1

iPhone 2G (1st Generation)

Use PwnageTool to do the magic and then restore with iTunes using your newly created .ipsw ‘nuff said, you don’t need to worry about anything, the baseband will be unlocked, the phone jailbroken.

iPod Touch 1G (Original iPod Touch)

Use PwnageTool to create a firmware image and restore with that .ipsw using iTunes.

iPod Touch 2G (New iPod Touch)

Sorry, no support at this time within PwnageTool, use Redsn0w for an earlier (pre 3.1) firmware release instead.

As we all know, the Dev-Team recently released their jailbreak and unlock for 3GS however just today, a recent Dev-Teammember who we know as Geohet has released his own unlock, since the Dev-Team called their jailbreak Redsn0w and their unlock Yellowsn0w, Geohet called his jailbreak purplera1n and his unlock purplesn0w.

In order to use purplra1n, first go to www.purplera1n.com and download your corresponding software, once downloaded, open the app and connect your iPhone 3GS then click “make it rain” your iPhone will start to jailbreak, once it has completed it will come to the home screen, WARNING: do not disconnect, sleep or turn your computer off until you see the home screen, you should see an app called freeze, open it and tap on “install Cydia” it will finally install Cydia, if it doesn’t reboot automatically, reboot your iPhone then you should get cydia, open cydia and add the repo: repo.geohet.com

Tap on the repo then download the file “com.geohet.purplesn0w” insert your SIM then reboot.

You are now unlocked!

Thanks to the combined efforts of AriX and westbaer, they are releasing a version of GeoHot’s purplera1n jailbreak for the  iPhone 3GS for the Mac. Both Windows and Mac versions have also received payload stability improvements, updating the the Windows version from RC2 to RC2a (although there’s no reason to use it if you already have RC2 installed). You can get both the Mac version and the new Windows version at purplera1n.com.
