Have a 3GS 3.0.1 and jailbroke with redsn0w pointing to 3.0. Everything seemed fine and Cydia was there. Then unlocked with ultrasn0w from Cydia. Tried rebooting, but the phone just shows the apple logo for a minute and blanks out. I haven’t seen any solutions yet for this problem… Can’t get the phone to work at all. Even the PC doesn’t recognize it with the USB plugged in… Mei

Oh I solved my issue with this after not seeing winterboard on the spring board. Problem was that after the first jailbreak I instaled categories which makes folders to keep the apps in. Well I put cydia and winterboard into a folder, which really “hides” the icons from the spring board to a sub folder. after updateing to 3.0 and re jailbreaking I kept installing winterboard and couldn’t see the app on my spring baoard. Ok so after reseaching the word “hide” clicked in and so I installed BossPrefs from cydia and there is a section with settings and a “hide Icons” menu… well there it was and there were all the apps I had put into folders with the Category app… so I toggled the ones I was missing back to ON and problem solved I could see my winterboard and apps again.

I used purplera1n and the only thing that still doesn’t work for me is the keyboard skins (bummer!) but it may have been the easiest thing on earth to install purplera1n

So where is the best place to go to jailbreak? I’ve done it before but not with the 3gs yet. What are the major cydia applications that do and do not work. I was upset when I updated to 3.0, now I am more nervous to have more programs not running properly..

I jailbroke with purplera1n but seemed to go into safemode every 3 or 4 times I changed something in winterboard. Not a big deal cause was just able to click one of the buttons and it got out of safe mode. But I just restored and decided to wait for 3.1 firmware so I can get MMS and then rejailbreak instead of having to worry about creating an iBrick. Apple should just sell different wallpapers and stuff in the app store cause I think more people would buy it instead of deciding to jailbreak. That’s mainly why I like it. Well there is other cool stuff But the majority of people really just want a cool backround.
