How to Jailbreak your Iphone 3G Version 3.1.2
This is a description how I did it and worked for me.
Disclaimer Important: Do this step by step description at your own risk. Be aware that you you will loose your guarantee in case of failure.
- You need to make sure your iPhone is up to date (Version 3.1.2)
- Get Blackra1n http://blackra1n.com/
- [Ctrl+Alt Esc] Open Task Manager
End Processes [iTunes.exe/iTunesHelper.exe/iPodService.exe] - Connect your iPhone with the USB Cable and run blackra1n
The first time it didn’t work for me. I always got just a black screen instead of the wallpaper picture. After I made sure my firewall is switched off and I changed the USB Port it worked like a charm. (Here a link with a more detail description for this step: blackra1n) - After a reboot you should have a blackra1n icon (waterdrop)
- Open it
- Choose a Package Installer [I choosed Cydia] and if you want to use it with another phone carrier you can choose sn0w as well then click on Install
- Open Cydia
- Do all package updates
