To be honest neither of them were unstable for general every day use. I use my Mac running Developer Build 1 as the main operating system for about 10 hours a day and the only errors I ever got were with Safari bugging out occasionally and not being able to restart with Mail open. That was basically it apart from minor things.

I'm experiencing the "stuck in recovery mode" fiasco. Since I almost-always have a computer around I can run blackra1n and get going but it's a major drag. Things could be worst - I could still be with ATT

cementdrums, Can you please explain to me the steps you did to Tether your Iphone? I have 3gs 3.1.2 and ATT. I would love to Tether my iphone so I will not have to access Black Rain everytime I reboot...thats what Tether means right? Sorry guys, I am new to this. Thanks!!

By: cementdrums

cementdrums — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 14:05:27 +0000

I installed blackra1n snow and was able to tether on AT&T 3G network. It worked amazingly well!

However, my phone will no longer access WiFi. WiFi is on, but it will not recognize any networks.

Any ideas what can be done?

Dan and Darrell this is a pain. I have been searching for a way around this rebooting to recovery mode. I am suprised that no one has found a way to get around this problem as of yet. Every time I see a new release with a day or two I already see a post with away around it. It seems like Apple has really stumped them this time. I have been looking for about 2 months now every day for hours searching and no update yet... My fingers are crossed hoping for an update for this soon!!!! As I have said on mulitipule forums, once it is found I will update as many users that I have come across that have the same problem

Jailbreak is good but not that good. I use my 3GS with Telstra NextG which is my carrier who sold me the phone, however jailbreak deletes my mail settings and phone settings. They just are not there, not even MobileMe works. SO whats the point? I think I'll just stick to un-broken.

hello all got my brand new3GS 3.1.2 (7D11) baseband 05-11-07. unlocked with Blackra1n RC3 ( thanks GeoHot ) after Rock and Cydia installed installed all my apps, all IPA with appsync etc problem : after some time ( no reboot ) my wifi gone !! even i cant connect with wifitrack !!

So i decided to use Pushfix, and wifi went back. but after some instal with BEYOURIPHONE REPO ( Autosilent ) my iphone crashed, stay lacked on the apple at boot ! no way to make it work

so i spend a night to restore with DFU mode tec this time i decided to folow updated tuto step by step ! if some off you guy succeded to make it work so can i

I did, restore 3.1.2 and firmware with Itune last version. Important: Removed PIN lock on the operator GSM card installed BlackRa1n from windows then Cydia and Rock and Snow from blackra1n menu, then basic packages and updates ( openSSH) from Rock after this i unistalled Blackra1n, did a boot, to test, ( USB cable puged in) all was perfect I installed Appsync from Cydia I restored all my apps with Itune then i dont know why, no more Wifi ! no netwaork detected ! should be an app conflict !! instead of using pushfix again with risk of freezing the phone again I tried to see the basic tuto on wifi, I did a reset network in genral menu, and then a reboot Well i was the worst idea, no more wifi, and wifi menu grayed out !! i was freaking out at nearly 5AM ! so i decided to tried a boot again shutdown and boot ! and a miracle, all is back wifi works and 3G and Push !!! all is fine! I get it!! juste boot more than once to test and it will be fine!

For all the people having wifi issues go to your router and unplug it and then plug it back in so basically you are resetting it, this is what worked for me

But now i have a problem after unlock i have full bars but i cannot make or receive call any suggestions?

There was problem with connecting to carrier after unlock.. just stays SEARCHING and carrier states Carrier 5.0 (im on TMO)... fixed the problem by changing to a newer sim card, found out sim card was deffective.. worked on other phone but not on the unlocked iphone.. if your having trouble connecting to your carrier after unlock... try changing to a new sim card..

Hey, I have been using jailbroken iphone 3G 8GB. Since ibluetooth started giving me problems, I uninstalled it and went to settings-->general-->Reset-->Reset Network Settings (maybe just for fun ) and lost my wifi!

Interestingly, in settings-->Wifi, it was showing 'not connected'. but if I tapped wifi, it showed my wifi network name and showed it connected.

Went thru several sites and internet searches, and mutiple n/w settings resets and reboots but nothing seemed to work for me.

Then I went to General-->settings-->Wifi and tapped "other..."

Then I entered my network's name(the same name which was showing 'connected' but wasn't connnected actually.) and tapped 'Join' on the keyboard.

And wholla! I was able to connect to my wifi again

God! the glorious uncertainties of iphone!

I have a iPhone 3Gs and I used blackra1n to jailbreak it and then downloaded something from cydia and then rebooted my phone as it was freezing and then i had no wifi for quite a while.

After tons of stuffs I tried to reset network settings twice in a row and it worked, but now i would suggest you all not to restart your phone ever while it is jailbroken.

i have the same problem,if my phone goes flat or is turned off the connect to itunes logo appears...this is a new programme added by Apple to counteract the jailbreak...if you look at the serial number on the box or iphone...if the 3rd,4th and 5th numbers are over 940...you will have to run blackra1n everytime to get the jailbreak back...lets hope Geo or the Dev Team come up with a solution to this...fingers xrossed

@ Shagee -

Thanks for the clear responses regarding the tethered jailbreak of the new model iphone 3Gs. We in this situation are seemingly stuck- unless of course we could find a way to jailbreak on a downgraded firmware- though I am not sure if that is possible now for my phone- Spent a bunch of hourse yesterday trying to restore it via Itunes 8 but evidently itunes 8 did not want to accept my phone... now more problems to google. I guess we have to wait for Geo or some others to see if there is a way around the reboot loop because ON TOP of the fact that the phone cant die on us or be allowed to have a system crash (different from a springboard crash) whenever a program requires a reboot- it cant be installed... unless i am missing something.. Thats the part I am really bothered by at least now.

If anyone finds a solution before i do for this problem- PLEASE post it!!! Many of us with this 3Gs problem would appreciate it thoroughly!

To shagee, it's not only a problem with the 3gs, I've got a 3g and it only happens after I install blacksnow.

Had my phone jailbreak with blackrain for a few days without unlocking with blacksnow, phone works fine until I installed blacksnow. I get "No Service" and a pop up message saying "Restore Needed". Tried to boot my device and I got into recovery mode. Can anyone help me with this?

Hi guys just bought a new iPhone 3gs with 05.11.07 firmware 3.1.2 7d11 . I jailbroke my phone using blackra1n 3 which was easy & it seemed fine until I turned it off then it goes into recovery mode. Can someone give me some advise on the matter? Thanks

Just curious, is that reboot problem just with the 3gs if the serial # has 94 in it? Or is that also with the 3g as well?

By: Dan

Dan — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 02:28:25 +0000

Ok for all the people having problems turning off after jailbreaking it and coming up in recovery mode. It's because you got a brand new Iphone. The new series of Iphone with the serial number being 94 instead of 93 and below will have this issue. I have been looking for a solution but have not found one yet. For now you got to make sure you don't lose power. Also if you do run out of power or have to reboot you do not have to restore it, just make it rain again and you will be back to where you were before you rebooted, but unfortuanitly for now you will need to use a PC to bring it back to life.

Hi,

I have a iPhone 3gs 3.1.2 firmware.

I have the problem when unlocking to all providers. When rebooting it comes up in recovery mode.

I can pass this stage by connecting to the laptop and running blackra1n but this fix is a bit too long winded especially if I haven't got my laptop with me.

Is there a fix for this?

Attention to 3GS owners with boot issue

After a search around the web before with the same boot issue myself found out that having to connect to get out of recovery mode is a feature.

Just to make that clear the iPhone is soposed to enter recovery mode every time.

does anybody KNOW whether or not an iPhone 2G will be able to work on the Telus and/or Bell network in Canada? Does their network allow for it? HSPA? I'm confused?

Yes there seems to be a bug in the iPhone 3gs 3.1.2,i had the same problem,no wifi-stuck in recovery when you turn on,but this works perfectly on iPhone 3g 3.1.2. I guess we will have to wait till geohot fixes the bugs,as for those stuck in recovery,you don't need to restoe again,just click the make it ra1n again to kick out of recovery

FYI - if you have a new 3GS (bought in the last month) you will need to run blackra1n every time your reboot (google tethered jailbreak)

But, i had a problem after unlocking and resetting my network settings (to try to fix the wifi) that blackra1n wouldn't work and i had to do a full restore from itunes. Anyone else see this (or another website that has this problem posted?)

My issues with T mobile - T zone plan

1) bought Iphone 3g factory reset from other seller..basband 5.11.7, and iphone os version 3.1 2) Use blcakra1n to jailbreak and unlock..everything went smoot with windows vista.. 3) Try Tmobile simcard. use apc.tombile.com as APN and email, wifi and internet work perfect. 5) When I connect this on my "Imac"- It asked if I want to restore with "ipod touch" back up. 6) I select yes..restore with pics, notes,preference went smoot. but none of my apps was there.. 7) I make sure that that phone has correct APN settings..,phone is still unlocked, incoming/outgoing call from t mobile work fine...

BUT internet, email DO NOT WORK... Error "could not activate Cellular data network .. you are not subscribed to a cellular data network"..

I try resetting network settings multiple time... Still not working.. Help Appreciated in advance

---I am thinking to "master rest to factory resetting" and try Blackra1n again... Would that work...?

Hey guy had same problem, JB and wifi and everything lost. felt like a bird without wings. But then i entered my providers supportsite. (http://www.onecall.no/kundeservice/iphoneoppsett.php). It gave back wifi to me!!! Dont know if it works on yours but it did on mine. Remember to turn on wifi else the mobilenetwork will be usef (and eat megabytes from your account). Do this on own resposiblillity.

I jailbroke my 3G with blackra1n for the first time. It worked great, no problems at all. Don't like the idea of it voiding my warranty though. After going through 7 iPhones in the last 2 years I've come to rely pretty heavily on that warranty. I'll we weighing the cost/benefit ratio over the next couple weeks to see if I think it's really worth staying jailbroken. Right now I'm leaning towards restoring though. Backgrounder, 5 icon dock, themes, and tethering are pretty cool but I've lived without them for so long I think I'll survive.

Just to add that my WIFI disappeared after eventually downloading the OPENSSL file that the "rock APP" said I had to download, I dont know if it was to blame or just coincidence!!!
