3.1.3 iPhone firmware released today

Today Apple released version 3.1.3 of its iPhone firmware.

For those on the jailbreak/unlock train, unless you have a iPhone 2G, DO NOT upgrade to this version. My suggestion is that when you get the pop-up in iTunes, telling you about the update, you click on "Do not ask me again" and click the "Cancel" button. That way you will no longer receive the popup where you may accidentally choose to apply the update.



iPhone 2G models can be jailbroken and unlocked with the latest release of the Dev-Team's redsn0w software.

iPhone 3g and 3GS models should not be upgraded to 3.1.3, particularly if you value your unlock. While the Dev-Team is working on tweaking redsn0w so that it can jailbreak a 3.1.3 iPhone, if you perform a stock upgrade to this version via iTunes, your base band will be upgraded ... there is no unlock for that version of baseband ( 05.12.01 ).

My guess is that the Dev-Team will update Pwnage Tool so that you can upgrade to 3.1.3 with a custom IPSW firmware bundle but preserve your baseband and unlock.

Stay tuned.

  1. I have a question, my unlocked 3GS just went into recovery mode and I was wondering if you know of a way to get out or preserve the 3.1.2 firmware, or am I going to have to upgrade?
