You have been waiting so long folks for the actual iPhone 3.1 OS jailbreak to arrive and the iPhone Dev Team has delivered. Your iPhone 3GS is ready to be freed. All you need to do is get the Pwnage Tool 3.1.3 but only if the phone was jailbroken when running iPhone OS 3.0 or 3.0.1. That shouldn’t be a problem, should it?

Of course, we don’t recommend in any way that you jailbreak and/or unlock your iPhone, or any other phone for that matter. It’s solely up to you to take such decision, and before you do, take a personal moment and consider what could happen if you messed up your phone. I bet the manufacturer and your carrier will not be happy to hear about your hacking activities. Those of you that still want to jailbreak, follow the link below at your own expense!

Apple recently released the second beta for the iPhone’s upcoming OS that is version 3.1. Details are scare on exactly what this update will entail but chances are there won’t be anything too drastic. However it probably includes fixes for the current jailbreak methods on the scene.

Of course since version 3.1 is still in beta form it is currently only available to developers. Of course, if you really want to get your hands on it, your favorite torrent tracker probably can help you there. Then again, the chances of it bricking your device are there so I’d suggest not trying it.
