Compatible Devices: (Must be jailbroken with blackra1n)

  • iPod Touch 1st Gen - 3.1.2
  • iPhone 2G, 3G - 3.1.2
  • PS3 FAT/Slim - 3.41


Required Software:


Tasks:

1. Jailbreak your iDevice if you haven't already.

2. Install Vmware Player and create a virtual machine with the Ubuntu 10.04. Desktop you downloaded. Or if you have Ubuntu installed on a computer, that also works.

3. Get OpenSSH installed on your iDevice.

4. Start up VMware with Ubuntu.

5. Download openiboot and place it on the Ubuntu desktop.

6. Open the rar file and extract the files. Drag the openiboot folder to your home folder in Ubuntu.

7. In the home folder open openiboot folder and find "loadibec" and "oibc" and right click. Go to permissions and set each of them to read write on all options and also check the box that allows them to be executed.

8. Open terminal from applications - accessories

9. In the terminal type "cd ~/openiboot" without the quotes. Press Enter.

10. Now type "sudo su" press enter. Enter your password that you setup while setting up VM.

11. Next put your iDevice in recovery mode.

  • Step 1. Turn off your iPhone.
  • Step 2. Hold down the power and home button.
  • Step 3. When you see the Apple logo, release the power button but continue holding the home button down.
  • Step 4. Open iTunes and wait for it to tell you that its in restore mode.


12. In terminal type "./loadibec openiboot.img3" you should see openiboot show up on your iDevice's screen. If not you need to make sure you set the permissions for the files in the openiboot folder correctly in the step earlier.

13. On iPod touch press the power button once and you will see console highlighted on ipod screen. I believe you may use the volume buttons for iPhone.

14. Now in terminal on Ubuntu go ahead and type "./oibc" but do not press enter yet.

15. On your iDevice press home button. You will see it boot into a terminal and display some text. As soon as you see that press enter on the keyboard on Ubuntu. You should then see the same text in the terminal window as you see on ipod. - If you do not see the text and just see some dots at the bottom of the terminal that means your timing was off.

16. Press and hold home and power on the iDevice until it restarts. Put it in recoevery mode and start over.

17. Once the commands quit scrolling by in the terminal you should see welcome to openiboot at the bottom. At this time type "install" in the terminal and press enter.

18. It will start installing openiboot on your iDevice. This will take a few minutes. It will say finished when it is done.

19. Once it is finished disconnect your iDevice from the computer and you can close Ubuntu, you are done with it for good.

20. Press and hold power and home on your iDevice. You will end up back at the openiboot screen.

21. Just presss the home button as iphone os will already be selected and this will start your ipod/iphone like normal.

22. Now on your PC extract the ipt1g folder from the psfreedom rar file.

23. connect winscp to your iDevice in scp mode. Username is "root" Pass is "alpine"

24. Make sure you are in \system\private\var

25. click and drag the "android.img.gz" and "zimage" files over to the win scp window. Make sure you do not drag it into any of the folders in var, just in var. You may need to streach the winscp window to expose some blank space to drag the files to.

26. Now right click on each of the files and set the permissions to 777 and click ok.

27. Take your hand and wipe the sweat from your forehead. You are done.

At least I can fight
I don't think PSJB is working on 3.42. They havn't even updated their news feed on their website and that would be the first place that you would hear about. Nice tutorial though, I'll be using this later and I'll post my results. Does it work on a 3GS? I have a 3GS but I have an iTouch 3G also.
