    blackra1n RC2 Released, Tethered Jailbreak for iPhone 3GSSubscribe Subscribe

    blackra1nRC2
    George (GeoHot) Hotz released version
    RC2 of his blackra1n “all device” jailbreak tonight. The update fixes a number of issues, and includes a working version of Icy along with Mac support.

     

    In the initial release, blackra1n jailbroke all iPhones and iPod touches running on iPhone 3.1.2 firmware except for the newer 8GB iPod touches. The update, blackra1n RC2, jailbreaks all iPhone and iPod touches, but the iPod touch and iPhone 3GS running the newer bootrom require tethered jailbreaks, meaning blackra1n must be run each time the iPhone or iPod touch is rebooted. There were a number of issues jailbreaking iPhone 3G devices under the original version which GeoHot claims to have fixed in the new release.

     

     

     

     

    GeoHot’s blog reports the following changes in RC2:

     

    * Fixed all issues that you might had when jailbreaking iPhone 3G with blackra1n RC1.
    * Tethered jailbreak for 3.1 OOTB iPod touch 8GB and all the new iPhone 3GS’s.
    * Fixed Icy issues.
    * Works on both Windows and Mac.
    * If you used RC1 with success, no need to rerun

     

    Windows and Mac downloads are available in the download section or by using the links below.
