Iphone, Ipod touch Upgrade and jail break

"APPLE SUCKS", thats exactly what i used to say before buying apple iphone, and guess what, my moto is still the same but with a slight difference that is "MAC Sucks :P". So Iphone or ipod touch is basically a nice product of Apple, its more like a must have thing. The first little experimentation that i did with my iphone after doing some touch glitches and touch scrolling was the jailbreak :P as i heard a lot about it, So Lets go straight to the point, the upgrading of firmware and the jailbreak.

Well, upgrading of the firmware is not really a part of the jailbreak step but it is highly recommended to upgrade the firmware. The best fitted firmware so far is the version 3.1.2 that is stable and reliable and works pretty much smooth. So starting with the upgrading of the firmware here are the steps:

Upgrading the Firmware

1) connect the device to your crappy computer and download the 3.1.2 version of (iphone or ipod Whatever you have) from the website http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/

(make sure that you are using firefox browser to download the firmware. the file extension will be .ipsw. (store it anywhere, may be desktop))

2) OK, good, now open up the itunes software that you have in your computer, And on itune you can see that your device is connected. Click on the Connected device on your computer and hold shift and click restore button on your right side, select the downloaded file.

3) Now is the hard part, that is WAITING!!! yeahh... Itunes will load up the new firmware, but will take time like 2 or 3 minutes. Grab yourself a bear in the meanwhile. Once done The Phone will restart and you have the latest firmware there on your cellphone..yuhuuuu!!!!

Jailbreaking the phone

1) Download a software called blackrain from the website http://blackra1n.com/ and run it, while your device is connected to the computer.

2) Click on the single Button that you see, and wait again..it do usual loadings and restarts...let it do..

3) After restart your device is now jailbroken. Hurrahh...
