Update 1: Blacksn0w launched. Check out the step by step guide to use Blacksn0w to jailbreak and unlock iPhone 3.1.2 baseband 05.11.07

Update 2: BlackRa1n works with every iPhone and iPod touch model out there. However for some models of iPod Touch, it is still tethered. The steps are almost same for all devices.

iPhone 3G and 3GS users running 3.1.2 firmware can unlock and jailbreak their iPhones using a new tool released by GeoHot named Blacksnow (or blacksn0w).

According to his latest blog post, he wrote that he is working on a new tool called Blacksn0w, which will enable users on 05.11.07 baseband to unlock and jailbreak their iPhone 3g and 3GS. The software is still not ready and would take some time to be released.

GeoHot released a screenshot on his blog confirming the arrival of Blacksn0w.

    Hi,

    I just had my unlocked iphone 3g replaced under warranty….now I have a new 3g with the 5.12.01 base & the 3.1.3 firmware. The guy at Apple set evrything up and activated it…I decided to upgrade to iOS 4.0 and now it wants an AT&T SIM card?!?

    After much reading, it looks like I should not have upgraded to 4.0 and I may have to downgrade to 3.1.2 & the 5.11.07 base……

    So, a couple of questions:

    First, how do I reactivate the phone now (tmobile sim). If I cant activate it how do I go back to 3.1.3? Basically it is stuck in “emergency call” mode…How do I get out of here???

    Second, is it safe to download the older 3.1.2 firmware & 5.11.07 base? What is the best way to do that? Also, are (7E18) after the version number important when downloading the 3.1.2 software?
