With it’s relatively small list of tweaks, mostly security related, the latest iPhone OS update has proven to be about as exciting as watching paint dry. Many speculate that the new update was released exclusively to frustrate the jailbreak community. While this may be the case, the frustration did not last long thanks to the work of the iPhone Dev-Team. The team of iPhone whizzes announced this morning the release of their latest version of PwnageTool (v3.1.5 for Mac OS X) that allows jailbreakers to the update their devices to iPhone OS 3.1.3 while preserving the device’s ultrasn0w unlock and jailbroken state.

Today, iPhone Dev-Team member MuscleNerd announced that the team’s latest jailbreak software redsn0w 0.9 is officially out of beta and is now available for both Mac and Windows.

“redsn0w 0.9beta3 results were good, may as well take it out of beta: http://wikee.iphwn.org/howto:rs9(new: ipt3G and IPCC tethering)”

It looks like the sorry little amature scammer Jody Sanders is at it again. Once again Jody is stealing the hard work of the Dev Team. This time the crime is being committed through a shady company out of the UK called iPhone Unlock UK (I refuse to link to their website so that they will get no help from me with their Google rankings) and a of course the ever-so-familiar scammer Jody Sanders.

Apparently the iPhone Dev-Team works pretty quickly. Of course the unlock for the iPhone 3G took much longer than anyone expected that it would but at least it is here and after some initial problems our loyal friend Moniker 9 tells us that the new release of Yellowsn0w v0.9.4 (which is still beta) is working great. Once again we have to give it to the dev team for their quick work. Download and discuss here.

Another holiday, another major release from the iPhone dev team. This time it’s the long awaited unlock for the iphone 3G. They’re calling it “Yellowsn0w” and while usually we would have a download and instructions for use already posted here we have been unable to get it to work properly. This release really is living up to it’s beta moniker for us. Instead, we will provide the link to the dev team blog where you can download and contribute to the ongoing beta testing conversation.

Good Luck! and Happy 2009!
