Thanks Dhlizard. I do have SHSH saved on Cydia. When you say restore to 3.1.2 how do I do this? Can I do it officially or should I JB to 3.1.2? In the past I have used iClarified tutorials which all use Dev Team tools. http://www.iclarified.com/tutorials/iphone/index.... Also do I need to do something regarding the SHSH? Do I need to retrieve it through Cydia or something first? I assume that right at the end when iTunes asks me if I want to re import all my data or set up as new phone - I set up as a new phone and do not sync with computer. Sorry I'm not so high tech ! thanks Pete

How do I wipe a 3GS preserving the JB/Unlock ? I am selling my 3GS and want to wipe all the personal information. Apple says to do this using "Erase All Content and Settings" in Settings > General > Reset. But will this remove the JB/Unlock? thanks for any help Pete JB/UL Pwnage 4.01 / BlackSn0w

REMOTE WIPE: If I use remote wipe will it affect the unlock on my 3GS? Would like to sell it and buy iP 4. Also is this the best way to wipe your phone if you're selling it? thanks for any advice Pete

Yes thanks it worked. I suppose "turn it off" could be ambiguous i.e. just switched off, as in standby thanks anyway Pete

BTW your method for putting in recovery doesn't work on my 3GS (on Mac) because if I hold down Home continuously the Voicecontrol pops up ! Even if I connect it before it pops up - nothing happens - just mounts as normal in iTunes. Maybe it's something to do with Windows thanks Pete

Thanks...I am trying to go into recovery mode so I can find out if I have old or new bootrom. I'm following instructions from a thread below. There seems to be some debate over how to find out which bootrom you have. One person says you can tell from the ser no /model no. Then someone else said this is not correct you have to go into recovery and look at info through System Profiler. Also I believe when restoring with custom firmware through Pwnage this involves holding down Power and Home for 10 secs as described (which I did successfully last time with Pwnage) then keep holding the Power button and iTunes says it has detected a phone in recovery mode. but the phone doesn't want to let me do it now, thats all.

I think I am in the same position as you technolion (except maybe not so techno!) but how do I know if I have the old or new bootroom? 3GS UL/JB Pwnage & blackra1n. 3.1.2 / 05.11.07 Serial: XX9385BL3NS Model MC134B I uploaded my shsh to Saurik. My phone was registered to 02 and I still have the SIM. So can I go ahead and use Pwng 4... and then will I need to install Ultrasnow through Cydia? If I get the same 1600 error what exactly is the procedure? many thanks for any advice Petezzz

Is it OK to use iTunes 9.1? Could there ever be a time when Apple releases a version of iTunes that when you try to synch it detects your unlocked iPhone and bricks it? thanks Pete 3GS 3.2 Pwn + blackra1n

Muststylez doesn't say his phone is brand new. I believe if your phone has a slightly older serial number (search earlier posts for details) it is possible... cos I did it...3GS , same OS and baseband. JB with Pwnage and unlock with bkacksn0w. Works fine. (UK vodaphone PAYG sim)

Not quite a search but... On each page of messages hit Comm F (Mac) Cntrl F (PC) and you can search for key words on that page. I'm using Firefox on a Mac and that works.

Wi Fi not working. 3GS JB with Pwnage 3.1.4 then UL with Blacksn0w. Wifi definitely not working even after following all the tips in these threads. Should I run Blacksn0w again? Are there any alternatives I can try? many thanks Pete

hey guys - be kind. It's not that easy to understand if you're not used to all this tech speak. I am just learning myself. Goodspeed - As far as I can figure (anyone else please correct me if I'm wrong)... you first have to jailbreak using Pwnage. You can't unlock without JB. Then you want to unlock using UltrasnOw but THERE IS CURRENTLY NO UNLOCK for 3GS on baseband 5.11.07. Just have to wait for that. If your phone is already activated you can continue to use with the original service provider.
