Wuts the difference between blackra1n purplera1n and redsn0w

[2000hadee]

@rjagir74 i don't think so. Blackra1n is only for 3.1.2 and purplera1n says too use blackra1n instead

[nicholas8615]

@2000hadee it sais that to me to

[ShaunaSandVid]

I've got an idea. I have been searching for a solution. I stumbled across softunlock. com (It works!)

[choecho9]

itried to download purplera1n but it says use blackra1n instead but y computer wont read it i have windows xp HELP

[wi9er]

@checho9 The reason is because Purplera1n is old now so either use Limera1n, spirit or greenpois0n Or the new sn0wbreeze software

[XaiQ]

@mrsdunphy1

Good point Apple remotely shut off the iPhone 4g stopping the thief from actually being able to use the phone

A lot of people Reading this comment will not be able to purchase the iPhone 4g, it's just going to cost so much

Luckily I learned on Apples twitter Thursday they are giving away a ton of iphone 4gs. Oh and, this is the link to Apples iPhone 4g giveaway website ... just copy and paste

way｡com/iphone4gfree143

Also, the code they ask for at the end is FACEBOOK286

[sxyrach89x]

Get the latest iPhone 3GS for FREE from iphone.wilder-side(*d0t*)com

[jacoblroark]

thanks for ruining my phone jk thnks this helped

[JohnathenDavis]

Can u jailbreak with purplera1n on an iPod touch

[ideemac]

no you cant, use redsn0w to jailbreak ipod touch

[sirkobro]

@ideemac or Blackra1n

[toguNYC]

I've lost my 1g iphone, now I'm getting 3gs but it comes unlocked and without cydia. What should I do first? unlock first or jailbreak ?

[ideemac]

you say it comes unlocked, so all you need to do is jailbreak to get cydia. Use redsn0w, I have a tutorial if you need help, check out my channel. Please subscribe if you haven't.

[toguNYC]

I misstyped. it comes unlocked. dunno if it comes with 3.0.1 or something else

[trinik95]

When the iphone is already unlocked after you restore it will it be locked/un activated???

[ideemac]

correct.

[slickstudmth]

yea...thanks azzhole u screwed my iphone over ... u damn spic!

[mmaarrkkooSRB]

damn this shit fucked up my phone! thx alot

[Tristanchm]

My phone said version 3.01 and 4.26 Modem Firmware..

[ideemac]

that means your on 3.0.1 firmware, so check out my 3.0.1 jailbreak video using redsn0w.

[Tristanchm]

I have the 4.26 firmware and when i installed the pra1n and it freezez on the picture of geohot the guy... did it more than a few times... I am using vista.. not sure what is wrong is it becaude thr firmware is 4.26 or because i am using vista? If the firmware is the problem how do i go back to an older firmware 3.0? i got the phone a little over a month a go so the phone came with that firmware..... PLZ let me know... Need help!

[ideemac]

Firmware 4.26 doesn't even exist. Not sure how you have it. But if you want the 3.0 firmware I have a link in the description click on (more info). Purplerajn only works for firmware 3.0. Open iTunes and plug wire in iPhone. Hold shift and click restore, then select the 3.0 firmware you downloaded.

[glitzyglam217]

i tried todo this and it stayed on the picture and it wont work i tried it various times and italways stays on the picture help

[ideemac]

Purpleraib only works for 3.0 if your running 3.0.1 firmware you need to use redsnow.

But if you are on 3.0 and get stuck at the picture try unpluging it and then replug it back in the wire.

If you try it again make sure you close the progr and over.

[jigarpatel7]

Hey there... I was planning on buying an iphone 3gs (32GB). What would be a better option... to buy it from an Apple Store & crack it myself OR should I buy an unlocked iphone from ebay?

Will the unlocked iphone support network carriers in other countries other than the United States??

[ideemac]

If the iphone from the apple store is cheaper then buy it there, jailbreaking and unlocking is easy. Yes once you unlock it, you can use any sim card from any country.

[knoscrub]

i tried to jailbreak my 3GS iphone with modem firmware 04.26.08 with purplera1n and now it is frozen on the pic of geohot with the iphone that looks like a skate board. i can not restore from backup and i can not power of the phone

[ideemac]

Put it in DFU mode. Hold the home + power button down for 10 seconds. then let go of power button and keep holding the home button. Keep your iPhone plugged in

[cntmdc]

I tried to (Jail break) unlock the 2 g iphone the phonelocked on the Itunes logoandwon'tlet mepcrecognize it any sugestions on getting it back to work.Please help.

[ideemac]

purplera1n is only for the 3GS... You have to use redsn0w to jailbreak your 2G. I have a tutorial check it out. If your phone is not working then you have to restore it with itunes.

[shopgirlhawaii]

Hi,

I keep getting a error message telling me DFU Mode failed...running 3.0.1 2g windows

Please help!

[ideemac]

this video is for 3.0 only. Try redsn0w to jailbreak 3.0.1 i have a video tutorial on it also. since you have a 2G, please click more info and download the bootloaders and insert into redsn0w. Everything esle is the same as in video.

[sherjen6907]

[ideemac]

[PBizzle43]

yeah same man wtf!

[RAREART]

omg thats a lot of steps man im using aol browser will that be a problem?

[wrps]

thanks for the updates. guess we'll have to use redsnow for 3GS. cheers.

[RAREART]

where can I get the redsnow version for 3.0 ? thanks hopefully they have a great tutorial lol

[ideemac]

my tutorial is the best lol please click on my name to view the tutorial.

[jay23cr]

I think AT&T may have cought up with purple rain cause I am trying to unlock anewly purchased iphone 3GS and it no longer works it seems, please get back to me

[ideemac]

purplera1n doesn't work for 3.0.1, use redsn0w

[BaNgLlSh]

i tried over and over... redsnow isn't working either for 3gs 32gb...

any suggestion please?

[RAREART]

so is there any other way of jailbreaking the 3.0 3gs iphone now ? I dont want to update to 3.01 ? THIS BLOWS

[ideemac]

yea just use redsn0w.

[RAREART]

great just when i wanted to jailbreak my damn 3gs :(

[ideemac]

jailbreaking 3.0.1 and 3.0 is the exact same. So click on my redsn0w 3.0 jailbreak video

[RAREART]

thanks man but i still have the version 3.0 software just got the phone a week ago I checked what firmware it has and it says version 3.0??? the exe file keep saying "encountered error cannot open file?

[RAREART]

I just tried running the purple ra1n exe and it doesnt work whats up tried restarting my pc and still nothing ? is it down

[ideemac]

purplera1n still works for firmware 3.0. If you updated to 3.0.1 then you have to use redsn0w to jailbreak it. check out my video.

[wrps]

how patient are you talking about? I left it for over 10 minutes. I heard you can also use redsn0w to jailbreak? does it work just as well?

[ideemac]

yea i suggest you use redsn0w. If you want you can update to 3.0.1 and i also have a video on how to jailbreak that.

[wrps]

i click on Make It Rain, and iPhone stays on the screen of George leaning in the iPhone. What do i do?

[ideemac]

This only works for iPhone 3GS, on 3.0 Firmware. If you have those 2, then try closing purplera1n and just trying to click make it rain again. Be patient when george's pic comes up.

[Kakashigirl250]

me too! I've had it jailbroken before but because of the new apple software update, I had to redo it..and mine is still stuck on the pic of Georgie boi ]:

[wrps]

so what do you think? I just bought my iphone 3gs couple days ago. I heard there is a redsnow as well that can do same thing.

[Kakashigirl250]

redsn0w can do the same thing, but man purplera1n is so easy! It's probably just due to the software update, and I'm sure the program will be updated soon.

[wrps]

so are you gonna wait for the software update for purplerain? If you get it working, let me know what you did please. Wish i could jailbreak this thing.

[Kakashigirl250]

Sorry I took a couple of days to respond. Yeah, I'll wait from some news about purplera1n and i'll let you know. it's the easiest jailbreak out there.

[wrps]

k thanks

[Kakashigirl250]

Alright. So I read the creator of Purplera1n's blog and it turns out because of the firmware update it no longer works ]: And the developer has no intentions of fixing it. There's a way to downgrade it but it's very complicated. I'm disappointed. Purplera1n was very simple, now it's obsolete.

[MILFHUNTER947]

damn yo, im in dubai right now and that purplerain link is blocked for some reason, is there any other website i can get the purplerain at?

[MrAmen]

So whaddo I do after I restore it? Just do the regular purplerain jailbreak?

[MrAmen]

iTunes is not even recognizing the phone anymore.

[ideemac]

maybe its because of the new 3.0.1 firmware, check out my redsn0w video on how to jailbreak it.

[MrAmen]

I have a unique issue. I updated the software on the phone and then after the update was complete, it started saying that the sim could not be recognized. I noticed that it uninstalled cydia and freeze. So I tried reinstalling cydia but it just froze up. So all I have is a picture of George on my phone. Can you help?

[iTSChRiiSZ]

hey can u plz help meee ok i did eveything u said n wen like i click make it rain it does eveything then i c the pic n it stays like th thw do i get it to work i did it so many timesss

[maniacwithagun767]

does it delete the apps?

[ideemac]

it doesn't delete anything when you jailbreak using purplera1n.

[TMANDAMAN]

hey can i ever restore my iphone 3gs to its normal settings?

[worldisu]

can i jailbreak without activating with itunes...plz help

[ideemac]

to jailbreak w/o activating you have to use redsn0w. I have a tutorial in my channel page, please check it out.

[warzephyr]

wow i never knew jailbreaking was so easy! i was about to pay some guy 20$ to jailbreak and put on installous.

Is it hard to put on installous?

[Kaelo3g]

Nice!!!

[MrAmen]

This absolutely works! At 1st I was skeptical like"what if he just had his friends comment and say it worked?" But it worked for me and I am barely computer literate. So much for paying someone else to do it! Thx Ideemac! I'm def subscribing!

[ideemac]

Thanks for subscribing, I really appreciate it. I'm glad my video helped you and everything worked out.

[SlickmagicTJ]

How ever Geohotz made Purplera1n, its by far my preferred method in jailbreak. Why? Beause its fast! Its nice for those time you have to restore your iphone. :) All jailbreaks should be this simple!

[searcher500]

when i download winterboard it just shows the apple sign and goes blank. anyone help me out and im using  iPhone 3GS

[dryice1337]

Winterboard doesnt work for any 3GS right now.

[dimebagman08]

yes it does

[dryice1337]

Yeah sorry i didnt read about the update when i posted, lol. YEAH GUYS WINTERBOARD WORKS!

[lavery536]

will this slow my iphone 3gs down?

[ideemac]

no, the jailbreak is just like another app (cydia) and the unlock uses about 150bytes. I have it installed on my iPhone 3GS and i feel no difference of speed.

[BenjyCJ]

Hey, cheers, this was really helpful!

I tried again and again with redsn0w and it just wasn't working, tried this and it worked first time!

Great vid!

[BaseballCacher]

what is better to use redsnow or purplera1n?

do u still come out with the same "jailbreak" in the end?

im new to the jailbreak and i would like to do it.

NICE VID BY THE WAY!!!

thanks in advanced

[maxxramman]

If you are on 3Gs, then Purplera1n is your only option.

If you aren't then you should use redsnow.

[BaseballCacher]

ok thank you, got it working now!!

[ideemac]

you can also use redsn0w 0.8 released by the dev team for the 3GS. check out my video on redsn0w for the 3GS in my channel.

[jay23cr]

Ok, anyone knows how to activate the phone before you do the purplerain?

[ideemac]

Get a prepaid SIM card.

[kevinaelita]

i have i problem i jailbreak my iphone 3gs with purple ra1n and it worked out well. but when i went to freeze and it wont complete. it completed at fisrt but cydiawasnt their so i did it again it stops at a certain point and the bar wont go up

[Belistix]

I had that happen too, but re ran cydia 3 times and the last time i just let it sit for 3 minutes and saw cydia.

[pbkid130]

GeoHot came out witht he first ever jailbreak

He is tight.

[ideemac]

yea he is tight that the dev team took so long to release their 3gs jailbreak lol.

[pbkid130]

Wait so the dev team has a jailbreak?

[ideemac]

yea its called redsn0w, i made a video tutorial on how to install it also check out my channel, subscribe if you like the content.

[jay23cr]

Very useful, but how do I ACTIVATE the phone?

[wildsvo]

so if tmobile wont run the 3g network why get it for the speed?

[ideemac]

its just for people who want the iPhone but don't want to sign a contract with at&t

[pbkid130]

Dude it is faster processor more ram and more hardrive space

[xoxonicole]

i jailbroke mine with the first jailbreak not RC2 ....Does RC2 fix the problem with the keyboard themes on the 3GS ? cuz thats basically what i want...the keyboard themes. lol

[ideemac]

not sure because that hasn't happen to me, but i do know the RC2 has been updated to have less errors, so it might fix your problem.

[jjjmmm93]

PLEASE HELP my iphone got stuck in recovery mode. i tried running purplera1n mutltple times and it stll doesnt work so i tried to restore it using itunes and durng the restore an error message occurs. PLEASE HELP

[ideemac]

check out my redsn0w video, there's a link for the 3.0 firmware. Download the firmware and try to restore it with that. If purplera1n is giving you problems then i suggest you try redsn0w.

[supermann667]

great vid really easy!

[vcarter1x]

none of the apps I download from cydia show up on my iphone icons. How can I get them on the phone so I can used them

[drivebyee]

[ayeue320]
