3.1.3 - Jailbreak iPod Touch 1G,2G (Older Non-MC Models Only), Jailbreak and Unlock iPhone 2G,3G

Redsn0w 0.9.4 can jailbreak and unlock iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G (No unlock for 3G), iPod touch 1G and iPod touch 2G (older Non-MC models only). Do not update to iPhone 3.1.3 firmware yet if you want to preserve your unlock for iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, iPod touch 2G (new models) and iPod touch 3G. This is because the new iPhone 3.1.3 firmware updates baseband to 05.12.01 on iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G which makes it impossible to jailbreak and unlock iPhone 3GS and 3G.


Before You Begin:

Follow the step by step instructions below
to jailbreak and unlock iPhone 2G, jailbreak iPod 1G/2G (older models only) on 3.1.3 firmware. You can also jailbreak iPhone 3G with redsn0w 0.9.4 but doing so will make you loose your unlock.

Note: If this version gives you problem on iPhone 2G and iPod touch 1G, then try redsn0w 0.9.3. Download redsn0w 0.9.3 from here and then follow the instructions as follows - Windows - Mac.

Step 1:

Update to original iPhone 3.1.3 firmware via iTunes
Step 2:

Start redsn0w 0.9.4 and direct it to the 3.1.2 firmware to proceed. You need to direct it to iPhone 3.1.2 instead of 3.1.3 because redsn0w 0.9.4 can't validate the latest firmware.



Step 3:

Now select "Install Cydia", "Unlock" and "Already pwned" options for iPhone 2G.


Step 4:

Now make sure your device is both OFF and PLUGGED IN to the computer before you click "Next".


Step 5:

Connect your device in recovery mode by following the direetions on the screen.








Step 6:

Redsn0w will do all the rest for you. Once complete, yourdevice will restart automatically and you will find it jailbroken with firmware version 3.1.3.

Note for iPhone 3G and 3GS Users:
I suggest that you stay away from this upgrade until the DevTeam or George Hotz releases new jailbreaking and unlocking tools for 3.1.3 firmware.
