We’ve just gotten word from TiPb forums that George Hotz has released his much anticipated Mac OS X version of purplea1n.

So you say you have an iPhone 3GS along with that jailbreak itch? Hit the link and get your download on. As always proceed at your own risk. TiPb and all of it’s staff take zero responsibility to any wrong doings that may occur while using the software.

    I tried to download the file…upon opening it gives me an error about unsupported architecture

  10. Mikechek says:

    I’ve checked the info on the extracted file and it states application(intel)…does that mean it can only be opened on an intel mac???

    Seems to be working great for me.

    Purplera1n works, but Winterboard does not work on the 3GS. It crashes and puts the phone in Safe Mode.

    i just used total commander and T-Pot, found the Freeeze.app folder removed it and rebooted the phone and it is gone… much easier than ssh
