Dev-Team Warns Against iPhone 3.1.3 Jailbreak Scams

Regardless of some unscrupulous websites out there, Dev-Team reminds us that jailbreak solutions for iPhone firmware version 3.1.3 on new devices like the iPod Touch 3G don't exist! Unlock solutions for baseband version 05.12 do not exist! Scam sites will take your money and give you older software that was already released for free.

Unlocking and jailbreaking software is always released free of charge. Currently baseband 05.11 can't even be unlocked on iPhone OS 3.1.3. If you upgraded your firmware using the official Apple 3.1.3 software you'll just have to be patient while the Dev-Team finds a way.

Progress has already been made, as Dev-Team commenter sherif_hashim has discovered a promising crash in the new baseband. The Dev-Team is looking into it and could possibly come up with a working unlock solution. Right now there's no telling how long it might take.

Scam sites are counting on iPhone users stuck without a jailbreak to be impatient and spend a few bucks on nothing. Don't be fooled!

So is the dev team actively working on a jb or are they waiting for 3.2 or 4.o to be released? I thought the latter. One way to keep people from being ripped off would be to release a jb for 3.1.3. But then what do I know.

From what I've heard, no one of repute is actively working on a 3.1.3 jb. Plans are to wait for OS 4.0.

there seems to be a little bit a misinformation when talking of jailbreaking(JB) and unlocking(UL)the iphone. the current 3.1.3 OS and 05.12.01 baseband can not be unlocked but it can be jailbroken. look for Spirit software and it will JB it. i did it and it works fine.
now to UL you will have to wait. there is no current baseband hack for 05.12.01. meaning you wont be able to use any other SIM carriers like T-mobile. basically all you can have at the moment is and iphone turned into an ipod. hope this helps.
if they tell you that you can downgrade your baseband to 04.26 with the fuzzy app that you download from Cydia it is a lie. it does not work and it is a lie. i tried and it did not work.
hope this helps

fuzzyband DOES work but only on the first 3g that came out with bootloader 5.8. You can check if yours has 5.8 by going to ih8sn0w.com (note the eight and the zero instead of 'o') and run forcast and it will tell you what boot loader you have. I unlock commercially and have only ever seen 2 5.8 bootloaders out of the 200 iphones I have unlocked.

Well we are desperate, we are following every clue on the web. Dev-Team does not help a lot with not giving any information if they are even going to find solution.

BE AWARE OF SCAMS, I FOUND A SITE THAT CLAIMS TO HAVE A JAILBREAK SOLUTION FOR THE IPHONE 3GS 3.1.3. SITE NAME IS www.automaticiphoneunlocker.com. DO NOT GO NEAR THEM, IT IS ALL A LIE. WAIT PATIENCELY UNTIL THE REAL GUYS FIND A WAY.

Yeah; go the Dev Team...you guys rock!!

Here is a website easyiphoneunlocking.com

Becareful ,they claim to be able to unlock the 3.1.3,but it is a SCAM!!

Also be aware of the web site http://iphoneundo.com/ they are a scam too they only have the old downloads, plus there is nobody on any of the contact for help. Agood way to chck the web site is to call the help line and check thier terms and conditions first before paying anything!

http://iphoneundo.com/

I HABE PAYING IST A FAKE

The website
iphonee3gs.de.tl/

Please do not download its solution for the iPhone, it is only the QuickPWN.exe and a .txt and this solution does not start.

FAKE

Yeah iphoneundo are big time scammers they not only used old software that doesn't work but they even duplicated another unlocking website so they looked more professional. I believe they have just been taken offline thankfully but i'm sure they will turn up again

yeah they are scammers for sure, one minute they were using a bog standard website design then suddenly they have duplicated another unlocking company, i believe they have just been taken offline but i'm sure they will turn up again
