Unlock and Jailbreak iPhone 3GS on Windows

By Isa Nagib on July 14, 2009

Now you can unlock and jailbreak iPhone 3GS running on firmware 3.0 to make it work with any carrier:

Step 1: Now you need to download purplera1n for Windows and you must already have iTunes 8.2 installed.

Step 2: Run the purplera1n app. If you are on Vista, make sure you run it with “Windows XP Compatibility” mode by enabling it from the “Properties” tab.

Step 3: Make sure iTunes 8.2 is running.

Step 4: Click on “make it ra1n”:

Make It Ra1n

Step 5: Let the app do its thing and wait for the phone to automatically reboot.

Step 6: You should now have “Freeze” in the list of applications. Run “Freeze”, download Cydia and let it install it.

Step 7: Finally reboot your iPhone 3GS. Voila! You should now have fully jailbroken and unlocked iPhone 3GS.

Download iTunes 8.2

    Hi, Help!!! I download purplera1n and loaded to my iphone 3GS. An image appears but that’s as far as it goes. The image continues to stay on and I can’t turn off my phone. Also iTunes doesn’t recognize my phone either. Please help.

    purplera1n doesn’t seem as reputable/credible as redsn0w.

    Try googling up how to reboot your iphone.

    And then google up “jailbreak iphone 3GS redsn0w’ :)
