I love the way you telling how to jailbreak iphone 3gs
Followed these steps. Now my phone has no service. Any thoughts?
I got it to work. I had to skip step one. You can re-use redsn0w v0.8 to jailbreak today’s 3.0.1 update. Just let iTunes update or restore you to official 3.0.1 then run redsn0w. The only “trick” is that when redsn0w asks you to identify the IPSW used, point it at the 3.0 IPSW instead of the 3.0.1 one.
