Now that you’ve read the important part above, follow the steps below to jailbreak your device -
Step 1
Download and Install PwnageTool 3.1.5
- iTunes 9.0.3 (Direct Download Link)
- OS 3.1.3 for iPhone 3GS (Direct Download Link)
- PwnageTool 3.1.5 – MAC only (Direct Download Link)
Launch PwnageTool 3.1.5, accept the copyright information and select Expert Mode
Step 3
Select your device. A big Green check mark will appear on the selected device.
Now hit the big Blue Arrow button at bottom right to proceed.
Step 4
PwnageTool will automatically find the IPSW file. If not found then click “Browse for IPSW” button and select the downloaded IPSW OS 3.1.3 file from the Pwnage folder. A check mark will appear next to it.
Step 5
On the next page, select the General and hit Blue Arrow Button to proceed.
Step 6
Please read carefully about selecting activate the phone option. You will know you didn’t choose the right option if you don’t have signal after jailbreaking.
On the next Page you can decide your Root Partition Size where OS resides. Click activate the phone (only if you’re on unofficial carrier).
Deselect Activate the phone option if you are on official carrier. For the 3.1.3 firmware you may have to increase the size of your root partition slightly for the IPSW build to be successful. I like 1GB.
The next screen will show the Cydia settings menu. It allows you to create custom packages so you do not have to manually install them later.
The Bootneuter settings are greyed out for the iPhone 3GS and 3G and iPod Touches. Click the blue arrow button.
On the next Custom Logos Settings menu, you’ll be able to add your own images as boot logos. Click the Browse button to select your Boot logo and Recovery logo. I just use defaults so deselected all options.
Step 7
Click the build button to select it, then click the blue arrow button to proceed.
Step 8
You will be asked to Save your custom .ipsw file. Save it to the same Pwnage folder.
Step 9
PwnageTool will start building your custom firmware. Wait until it’s done.
If prompted enter your Administrator password and click the OK button.
Step 10
When prompted if your iPhone has been Pwned before, Click No. It allows for a more thorough restore.
Step 11
You will be asked to turn OFF the device. Make sure it is connected to the USB port.
Step 12
NOTE: If you’re already jailbroken (by whatever means), you don’t need to mess around with DFU mode at all. Just create your custom IPSW and use Option + Restore (Shift-Restore on Windows) to load the OS via iTunes. Don’t enter DFU mode at all. Please make sure you are restoring to the custom IPSW, not the stock one from Apple! For best results, use the latest iTunes (9.0.1) — which includes a nice new application organizer.
When followed correctly, PwnageTool will display a message telling your that it successfully entered DFU mode. iTunes will also pop-up.
Step 13
In iTunes, hold the Alt/Option key and hit Restore.
Step 14
Browse to the Pwnage Folder and select you custom .ipsw file that you just created and click Open Button.
Step 15
iTunes will now restore the firmware on your iPhone. This can also take up to 10 minutes.
When done. You have successfully Jailbreak iPhone 3.1.3 firmware.
