Apple are now attempting to halt jailbreaking for the time being. Latest 3GS models are now loaded with a new booting firmware update, iBoot-359.3.2 which fixes the popular 24kpwn exploit.
Another exploit will have to be found in order to jailbreak future iPhones, but fear not there will always be a way around this.
In other jailbreaking news, jailbreaking for the 3GS 3.1.2 is now available. The PwnageTool coming from Dev-Team and blackra1n coming frmo Geo-Hot.
I went the PwnageTool way and was successful. Creating an custom IPSW was easy and restoring it to my 3.0 Jailbreak worked perfectly. However PwnageTool is mac only at the moment. Geo-Hot’s blackra1n however only works on 3.1.2 stock phones, which means you will lose the ability to unlock with this tool. Nevertheless blackra1n does its job well and fast. Whichever method you go, you won’t go wrong unless you need the unlock.
