4.3.1, can it be done yet?
I've had to restore my iPhone as it was running so damn slow and apps kept shutting down. Even trying to remove photos wasn't happening.

I had a look on youtube and there are a few videos on how to do it but it's not as simple as it was since I last did it, I haven't a clue what they are doing :-/

I spent a full day jailbraking and unlocking my 3GS I knew nothing about it before this before spending hours reading and watching vids.
The actuall process took bout 15 mins. I tried all sorts, and found alot of the 4.3.1 cracks to be unreliable (freezing when doing it. I was running 4.2.1 before but accidently updated to 4.3.1 via intunes as i crashed the phone totally).
In the end i downgraded to 4.1 (download the ipsw file from the net, and unloaded it via itunes), and used the latest redsnow to jailbreak and uploaded the ipad software on it (to enable me to unlock it as i couldnt do it on the baseband that comes with 4.3.1).
Apple are making them harder and harder to crack. If you did it a while ago, it would of been simple but due to getting more and more complex, they are harder to crack. Through hours worth of research, i found the older phone to be really simple.

Was having problems with this yesterday, and i thought i was doing something wrong. Having googled the problems, other people where having them too hence the downgrade. Obviously, in a few weeks the geeks will have sorted them.

I just tried to do it based on what you said Rich, but iTunes won't let me downgrade firmware. I got a 1015 code. Fail

Sometimes I redownloaded the files from another source and they worked better. Sometimes they can be very hit and miss! I think I had a similar problem when trying to go to 4.2.1 and in the end I just unplugged it for a while and started again. It worked for me and I'm talking to you now on the phone.

Fair play. I think I'll just wait for the 4.3.1 to come out. I do miss the jailbreak though

I did it in the end! I did a unthered break on 4.3.1 but ultrasn0w did work with it so then did custom files with snowbreeze on a theatherd break and it worked. I found everythingapplepro to be the best for up to date intro! He says yesterdAy that the unthered unlock on 4.3.1 should be here within a week. Loads of messing around last night!
