If you own the Apple iPhone 3GS you will be happy to know that it can now run the Untethered Jailbreak on iOS 4.3.1 and to do this you need the new Sn0wbreeze Beta jailbreak tool.
The new Windows jailbreak tool aka Sn0wbreeze has been updated to give a tethered jailbreak on iOS 4.3.1 and iDB mentioned the new release beta a few days ago and some of you have already been successful jailbreaking your iPhone on 4.3.1.
iDB do recommend holding off on iOS 4.3.1 until an untethered solution is released from the Dev Team because the Sn0wbreeze beta is a tethered jailbreak, but to their surprise one of their readers called Ryan (ryandodge) sent in a video (Shown below courtesy of YouTube) of his iPhone 3GS running an untethered jailbreak after using the latest Sn0wbreeze 2.4b1.
Ryan did say:
“Don’t quote me, but mine is. I don’t know how, or why. I had to restore it really weird, because my Power button is broken, and I had to restore to a custom, hacked 3.1.3 firmware to cause it to enter DFU Mode. Then, I used that DFU Mode to restore to my cooked Sn0wbreeze 4.3.1 firmware. So, when I installed WinterBoard, and my phone restarted, I expected to have to do some cooky thing to make Cydia work, but… it just worked. I can make a video if I must.”
If you watch the video below it does show that his iPhone 3GS is running Cydia 1.1 untethered after using the Sn0wbreeze 2.4b1 jailbreak.
Please let us know what you think of the video provided below, is this something you would do or have you already tried it out?
