Jailbreak iPhone 3G/3GS with 3.1.3 or 3.1.2 with Spirit

iOSiPhone

After a long wait, the jailbreak for iPhone OS 3.1.3/iPad 3.2 is finally here. Spirit is an untethered jailbreak for iPhone with OS 3.1.2/3.1.3, iPod Touch 3.1.2/3.1.3 and iPad OS 3.2. It’s a simple 1-click solution and as easy to use as blackra1n. However, Spirit will not unlock your iPhone. If you use a hacktivated iPhone, you are still better off with not upgrading to OS 3.1.3 until there’s an unlock for 05.12.01 baseband.

Also, make sure you have backed up your SHSH blobs before updating. You don’t have to really update to OS 3.1.3 to use Spirit. Using it with 3.1.2 will preserve your unlock as well as let you use an untethered jailbreak. That alone is worth the hassle of going through this guide.

Jailbreak iPhone OS 3.1.2/3.1.3

  1. Download the latest version of iTunes. (9.1.1 at the time of writing)
  2. Download Spirit
  3. Run Spirit and click Jailbreak. Jailbreak iPhone 3G/3GS with 3.1.3 or 3.1.2 with Spirit If you get error code c0000005, set compatibility mode to Windows 95/Me as shown below: Jailbreak iPhone 3G/3GS with 3.1.3 or 3.1.2 with Spirit
  4. When the jailbreak is done, the app will show you the status. Your iPhone will automatically reboot and you’ll have an untethered jailbreak! Congrats!

  1. Yup, back up your iDevice using iTunes or sync them. After doing a restore you can reinstall the apps using iTunes, or just restore from the backup.

  4. Hi, i have iphone 3gs 3.1.2 (7D11) and modem fw 05.11.07. I jailbroke and unlocked my iphone. Now, i want to use spirit to jailbreak my jailbroken phone. I understand that i need to restore 3.1.2 before doing so but apple doesn't support 3.1.2 restore now. And i have “This device has SHSHs on file for iPhone OS: 3.1.3” in cydia. Is there a way to restore and use spirit? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
