How to Jailbreak iPhone 2G/3G/3GS & iPod Touch on 3.1.3 Spirit Guide
Looking to jailbreak iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, or iPod Touch? You have come to the right place!
NOTE: THIS GUIDE WILL NOT UNLOCK YOUR iPHONE
What is ‘Jailbreaking’?
Jailbreaking is a term used that refers to modifying the software on your iPhone/iPod Touch. These modifications essentially “free†your device from the device constraints and allow you to do functions such as applying custom wallpapers, changing the way the icons look, modifying text message tones, changing the device sounds, and about 1 million other things. The list is endless. The image below is an example of what you can do with a jailbroken iPhone/iPod Touch:
Jailbreaking is accomplished by using programs such as ‘Spirit’ (listed below). Once you do jailbreak however, it is not permanent. At any time you can restore your iPhone/iPod Touch to factory defaults and return the device back to ‘normal’. However until you do the restore, your device will stay jailbroken. Also, it goes without saying that this voids your warranty, but when you restore to factory defaults, the traces of jailbreaking are usually cleaned up.
If you want to know more about Jailbreaking, you can read all about it here.
What is ‘Unlocking’?
The wireless carriers in Canada, such as Rogers and Fido, put “carrier locks†on their devices. What this does is prevent you from using the device on another wireless network. For example, you cannot take a Rogers device and put a Fido SIM card into it and vice versa.
Using similar methods to jailbreaking, one can unlock their iPhone. This allows you to “free†your device and allows the user to put any SIM card into the device. For example, if you unlock your Rogers iPhone, you can now put a Fido SIM in, or AT&T or O2 or whoever.
Unlocking is accomplished by using programs such as ‘ultrasn0w’. Once you do the unlock however, it is not permanent. At any time you can restore your iPhone to factory defaults and return the device back to ‘normal’. However until you do the restore, your device will stay unlocked. Also, it goes without saying that this voids your warranty, but when you restore to factory defaults, the traces of the unlock are usually cleaned up.

This jailbreak is so incedibly fast! Literally, 1 second!
The title mentions unlocking?
Its been so long since I have jailbroken/ unlocked my phone (since my 2G) that I have forgotten some things.
When you jailbreak, do you lose any of the apps I have downloaded or any functions that are set up from Apple or in iTunes? Does everything stay exactly the same but you just have Cydia now on your phone?
Also when you restore do you only lose the Cydia apps and nothing else? Is there a tutorial or something on that part of what happens?
Thanks
what is the advantage of jailbreaking my iphone else to have more probleme updating when Apple release new update?
The problem I'm having is iTunes can't connect to App store after the jailbreak on my iPad. Anyone experiencing this with their iTunes after jailbreaking their iphone?
links are dead lol
Anyone else experiencing issues with grey text? I restored everything with PkgBackup after using the spirit jailbreak and everything went flawlessly with the exception of winterboard not turning the icon text white, making it very difficult to read…
Nevermind, I edited a plist file to force the color white
My antivirus tells me there is a trojan in the file while downloading. What gives?
Just did it… was looking good until my network got lost…. i now have no service and will probably have to restore the phone…. though i did get cydia to pop up..
oh well,
anybody else have this issue?
Nice job, Guys ! Jeanlbreaking as a breeze Easy and secure. I know, in previous messages, I wrote I was not a Jealbreak fan, but I decided to try this one and it was a real success. Like others I still trying to find a way to unlock the 3GS, but in return, I can use MyWi, a cracked version, and actualy I am sending this message well conneced via MyWi. Thanks again and hope someone will find a way to unlock the last baseband on 3GS.

same issue but also here we have a nice snow storm… will restore and see
iphone restore still runing problems… Fido says Calgary area is affected badly
worked Flawlessly for me using Macbook Pro , iPhone 3Gs 3.1.3 on Rogers
I have that error in my MAC :
FATAL(__LINE__): Assertion failed (dl.c:197): 0 = = (AMDeviceStartService(dev, service, &it, NULL) (but it was -402653091)
same here! i couldnt hear ppl and ppl couldnt hear me! phone kept freezing in simple factory apps like SMS and Email! cydia worked fine for me… was able to add a couple of programs… but this was the last time i jailbreak! its such an unreliable platform!! i dont get how ppl put up with the constant crashes… maybe because my 3G isnt capable?? who knows… but will restore to factory, and thats gonna be the end of that!
Suggestion: I think best to not to link directly to the Spirit files and just bring people to it's main page http://spiritjb.com/ because if you still want to unlock your phone and didn't do a backup (read the page before downloading files) you'll be out of luck (from my understanding).
jailbreak worked for me also and was only like few seconds,i have cydia but is there any way i can find rock????
If you search for it within Cydia, it's there. I just did it last night.
Constant crashes? You must be doing something wrong…lol Mine was jailbroken since BlackRa1n was released… So a few months and no issues. Just had to do a restore yesterday due to some issue with backgrounding of the Phone and Mail apps…
No, you don't lost any apps you've downloaded nor functions. It does everything the same, except you can install unsigned apps from Cydia and Rock.
When you do a restore, you lose anything you installed from Cydia or Rock.
Btw, when you get Cydia, I'd recommend installing Rock, it's a MUCH better installer.
Hey my ipod touch is stuck at the loading bar… Does this happen to everybody or is my ipod broken? The bar is loadead but this swirly think keeps going around to load. Reply back please and thanks.
After clicking on the jailbreak button it gives me the following message.

I am using Windows XP, I updated the latest i tunes 9.1, and my i phone 3GS with firmware 3.1.3 with new bootrom
HI Erik, I had the same problem. Tr y this: Hold down the Power button for 3 seconds, without letting off the power, push down the home button for 10 seconds (both buttons should be pressed now), then let go of the power button, but hold the home button. DFU Mode doesn't have any screen, it's a blank screen.
You will see the apple, then press the home button again, the cynthia screen appears again but this time it should work. It worked for me. Good Luck.
Just did the jailbreak last night, worked like a charm. it was the simplest and quickest jailbreak I've ever done.
The problem Im having is that after I install a theme, only my background changes but my icons stay original. I'd tried several themes but with same results. I have a 3GS with 3.1.3. Anyone knows why this is happening?
Thanks.
I've just completed the spirit jailbreak. Wow, that was easy!
Did you install Winterboard? If not, you need to in order to install and use any themes without actually reprogramming the iphone.

I hope everyone does this anyway, but I will mention it anyway: backup your phone. Some people are reporting that their photos are getting deleted after the jailbreak process.
Also, if you’re having problems running Spirit.exe in Windows, run it in Windows 98 compatability mode. That should do the trick.
Good but can crash ur iPod
