@pepe32,

Some browsers mis-recognize the firmware file as a zipped file and extract it. This will make you fail to open the file in iTunes. I suggest you to use firefox to download the .ipsw file again.

Simon,
I’m on my 3rd 3G, after jailbreaking all of them, they have all crashed and became stuck on the apple logo screen for hrs. I had the warranty so they replaced the phone, but is there something I’m doing wrong and the phone is very slow as well as constantly dropping calls or the tethered signal.
Thanks for any insight that you can provide

Can anyone help
I have a 3gs and 3.1.2, windows xp
I have installed blackrain and cydia and they both work great but my phone keeps crashing for silly reasons like after I hung up on a call the phone screen froze, i could hit the home button and use all other programs but I could no longer use the phone program… So I reset the phone holding the off and home button together until I saw the apple sign..
Then the phone gets stuck on the itunes/usb screen!
Also my battery ran to 0% and so turned the phone off automatically, once I plugged the phone in once again it went straigh to the itunes/usb screen and I needed to reinstall blackrain by plugging the phone in and pressing make it rain.

Am I missing anything? and also how do you uninstall blackrain once cydia is installed

Thanks for your help!!!!!!

@Vivs,

For iPhone 3GS, there is no jailbreak option at the mean time. I will update you when there is any update.

Which iPhone model are you using? You may not be able to go back to 3.1.2 if you’re using iPhone 3GS.
