• How would one go about jailbreaking a '3rd' gen 8 gig iTouch?

As I'm sure plenty of people know, Blackra1n doesn't work with the updated 8 gig iPod touches, I was pretty pissed when I learned this. I created a custom firmware from a 3.1.2 iTouch 2G, but can't restore it, because iTunes 9 is gay. So, Am I fucked? :downs:

iTunes 9 doesn't like doing custom restores. :/
Do you have backups of your computer. if so recover from /Users/USERNAME/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates from the date before the update.
Tried it before, get an error 1604. I've tried like, everything..
It's called searching. [QUOTE=MUFC2007;17801239]It'll be fine for those, normal jailbreak, but the [B]"iPod Touch 3G", "Updated 2G", "3.1.1 Preloaded 2G" or "iPod Touch 2.5G"[/B], whatever way you want to name it, but [B]Blackra1n will not function correctly[/B] and you will stall in restore after seeing the image of GeoHot. GeoHots tweet: "with regards to new ipt2/3 8g support, if your model starts with MB it'll work, if your model starts with MC it won't, and restore required" MC models are the newly released models.[/QUOTE] [url]http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=827691[/url]
This is why I'm loving my first-gen 8GB ipod touch. ^_^
To what i have researched if your computer can't recover your iPhone then you plug it in to another computer and it would re-install the OS and fix the problem, and then you can get the apps back from your old computer by re-downloading them again, and if that doesn't work go to the iTunes store and select buy app, BUT it would be free because Apple keeps a record of all apps bought on your account. Best of luck! [editline]08:43PM[/editline] and i guess also if you don't have another computer then another account will work just as well!
