- Download the latest version of iTunes.
- Connect your iPhone to your PC/Mac and upgrade to iPhone OS 3.1.2
- Download blackra1n. ( Chose the correct version for your OS )
- Run the app and click on the make it ra1n button.
- Let it do its job and once your iPhone reboots, the blackra1n app will be there in the Springboard. Run it and install blacksn0w.
If you already had blackra1n installed on your iPhone, run the app and you’ll see ‘ra1n’ instead of Icy. Upgrade by tapping it. After the upgrade, it’ll show ‘sn0w’ in the options. Install it and your iPhone will be unlocked.
blacksn0w will also be released via Cydia later today so those who jailbroke using pwnage tool or deleted the blackra1n app will be able to unlock their iPhones easily.
For those interested, here’s the change log for blackra1n RC3:
- Hacktivation support
- 15-second speed improvement
- Tiger+PPC support
- Installation of latest blackra1n app

hey, i have an ipod touch which i found in town however, it has a passcode on it. i have now entered so many wrong combinations that the ipod is now disabled and will not connect to itunes as my laptop is obviously not its primary source. is there any possible way for me to unlock this ipod as it wont even connect to my laptop? please help :(
Why would anyone help you keep an iPod Touch that's not yours? Return it to the lost and found where you found it. Have a heart or get a conscience. Someone is sick to death and heart broken.
You don't have to be stupid or excessively careless to lose an iPod (or as the news shows, even a prototype iPhone), just human.
put it in dfu and then restore it
My iphone 3G 16G (Jailbroken on 3.1.3) was stuck on the connect to itunes screen after inserting a new simcard from my new carrier. I used a hactivation tool I got from Cydia to hactivate the phone which allowed me to use my phone but it simply displayed NO SERVICE (or -113 or 1bar).
In an attempt to rectify this, I created a custom IPSW using PwnageTool 4.1 and restored my phone to a jailbroken iOS4! Success, however, no matter which sim card I use, I still get no service :(.
