Just a few minutes ago GeoHot released the new version of blackra1n, the new version now allows you to also unlock your iPhone 3G or 3GS on a 05.11.07 baseband (that’s just 3.1 or 3.1.2 firmware). It just adds a tab in the Application after running blackra1n to also unlock your iPhone as well as adding Cydia, Rock and Icy. This will make things so much easier for he jailbreaking community. If you want to unlock your iPhone or Jailbreak just download it from there site here. If you need to find out how to use the tool, we have a post on the blog somewhere or why not check out the forum?
Update: Just found out if you add: http://blackra1n.com to Cydia under sources then it will bring up the blackra1n tool so you can install your unlock with having to install blackra1n to your iDevice via your computer.
hi i uesd the last vergan and it dasnt warek my iphon is alweas in sam moed that ie cant do ane theng in can u help my ….
I think this is what was meant??
“install your unlock with out having to install”

thnks
I never delete blackra1n from my phone. So I just check it awhile ago and it had sn0w already there! And it work like a charm! Thanks GeoHot
Does “Blackra1n RC3″ remove the tether from the itouch 3G jailbreak??
dollfacekilla fixed thanks for showing me was in a rush.
if i have a 3g jailbroken and unlock what is the best way to upgrade to 3.1.2 firmware jailbroken and unlocking it
Sweet… good to know. Thanks for posting up.
Hey Ty
Im having this strange issue of not seeing the blackra1n icon on my phone even though it has been already jailbroken with blackra1n about a month ago. I added the blackra1n repo like devteam blog said but i still see no blackra1n icon although geohot’s pic appeared on my phone when i ‘made it rain’ .So in effect all i did was to re-jailbreak my already jailbroken iphone 3G with the hope of getting the blackra1n icon on my phone so i could use blacksnow… i still get no icon on the phone but jailbreaking is succesful. I really wanna unlock it.Help me if u can
Oh btw greetings from Finland
As Nick said, does “Blackra1n RC3″ remove the tether from the itouch 3G jailbreak?
Looking forward for an answer!
Thanks guys
ive been successful with all previous unlocks and jailbreaks but this one completely bricked my 3gs nothing shows on my 3gs at all and is stuck in restore mode but cant restore….i get error 1601 everytime!
No,blackra1n rc3 does not make ipt3g unteathered. The bootfile exploit for the 3g hasn’t been discovered and put into blackra1n, but i’d expect geo hotz to do that in future updates.
this is the best jailbreak/unlock device ever!
Pleae help!! iPhone 3G is on 3.0 software and acting funny, want to upgrade and unlock. What is the best way bot that blackra1n is out?
Add: It is already inlocked with 3.0 and T-Mobile but I only get every other call sometimes. So i want to upgrade and keep T-Mobile upgrade.

Hi,
The installation worked great. However after reboot I can no longer use the Wi-Fi. Prior to the update the Wi-Fi worked without trouble. Do you have any idea what might be wrong?

I am jailbroken and unlocked on 3.1, but i want to upgrade to 3.1.2 whats the easiest way to do this?
Found out how to solve the Wi-Fi issue. Just an ordinary reboot fixed it!
Hi Darron, I had the same thing as yours.
What I did was officially update to 3.1.2 via itunes which obviously updated to 05.11 baseband too and once that’s complete I used Blackra1n to jailbreak and once that installed used blacksn0w on the iphone to unlock the baseband. Tried it on 2 different cellular networks and it works like a charm. Just in case you’re wondering my model no. is MC134B
Hope that helps all who are trying to do the same.
Ciao

Love the blackra1n…I don’t know if they (he) could make it any easier. thank you!
This is can be a real PITA. My 5 year old daughter turns her ipod and then I have to go reload everything again. Easy to jail break with BlackRa1n.
hi
i have 3gs 32gb.i have done unlock and jailbreak with blackra1n,and every time i turned off i must repeat proces “make it rain” how can i fixed that???
Thx guy..
I have a 2G iphone and i got black rain n unlocked it, but when i put my SIM in it said connect to Itunes so i did, and then it asked me for the data plan. What should i do?
I see a lot of similar questions and it seems that there is not a real step by step for unlocking the iPhone. I do agree with everyone that Geohot made this extremely simple with the exception of once the “Make it Rain” button has been hit, there is no other explanation going forward. When reading the blogs here and other places, I find that many are having similar problems after the “make it Rain” as I am having.
Can someone provide information for the following:
1. Once the “Make It Rain” completes the 20 second process it is my understanding the iPhone should reboot and then it is ready to go. In my case, I see the the picture of Geohot and then after the reboot I get the cord showing it should be plugged into iTunes. When I plug into I tunes well it makes you restore. Back where I was before I hit the “Make it Rain” button.
I haven’t been able to go past #1 but I see other questions that concern me.
2. I see that when the iPhone is turned off then you have to re-jailbreak the iPhone. Is this true? Is there a way to avoid this after jail breaking the iPhone?
3. WiFi – I see people complaining that they have lost their WifI after jail breaking. I have seen both that a reboot has fixed the problem and then I have seen it doesn’t. What is the norm?
Then there is the article I recently read:
http://theappleblog.com/2009/08/20/apples-official-iphone-3g-unlock/
How true is this? and if it is true, then why can’t we call over seas to get a problem free unlock?
A response would be very appreciated.

this problem is not solved yet,so everytime u reboot your iphone u have to blackra1n it again but faster than your 1st run.This problem occur due to new iboot on your iphone prevent u frm blackra1n,after blackra1n again everything back to normal.tat’s wat I know,just be patient wait for Blackra1n RC4.
