What is classifies an older 3GS
Aaagh, never had to deal with a tethered jailbreak…and I don’t want to…
I guess I have to wait to get my untethered jailbreak =(
There is a way to check via your computer but to keep it simple… If you bought a 3GS from around Nov 2009 and on then you have the new bootrom.
I had already jailbroken and installed the patched version of Cydia on my iPad a few days ago. I was able to re-jailbreak using the new Redsnow with no issues (didn’t have to restore).

So can I unlock my 3G phone now???
where can i get the 4.2.1 IPSW ?

Any reason to update my 2G from 3.1.2 to 4.2.1? It’s not listed in the post, is it even doable?
