iPhone 3.0 Jailbreak Confirmed
The Dev Team never seizes to amaze the iPhone community at how fast they pop out updates and innovative information. They have already gotten ahold of the new iPhone 3.0 SDK and confirmed that you will be able to jailbreak iPhone firmware 3.0 when it’s available.
However, be reminded that jailbreak users running unlocked phones via YellowSn0w, to hold off on jailbreaking their iPhone on 3.0 software until all the issues are cleared up.
If you find yourself with access to the 3G IPSW for 3.0 via the iPhone Dev Center program, and you are using yellowsn0w, do not update or restore to that official IPSW. You will lose yellowsn0w and find yourself unable to revert the baseband to get it back.
And for those wondering, yes the 3.0 OS is jailbreakable on all devices. It’s just those using 3G yellowsn0w that have to show some restraint and wait for PwnageTool to create a custom IPSW that avoids the baseband update.
It’s no surprise that they have already cracked the 3.0 firmware, however as we’ve seen the past, Apple may throw some surprises in last minute differing the beta from the final release. If you’ve got those “itchy update fingers” it would be wise to hold off until everything is stable and you get the thumbs up from the Dev Team.
