Yo I am one depressed and frustrated iPhone owner, let me tell ya… It looks like my iPhone 2G, that I use with T-mobile, is now locked and permanently un-jailbreakable. But let’s start from the beginning…

It all started when I download a free app from the App Store. It said it was “compatible with OS 3.1.2 and up”. I was still using OS 3.0, ‘cuz… come on, there’s really nothing gained from upgrading to 3.1.2 and each time you jailbreak, you run the risk of **** goin’ wrong and who knows what. But when I downloaded this free app, low and behold, the crappy little thing wouldn’t start. I realized then, that it was time to upgrade to OS 3.1.2… I should say, find a way to jailbreak to it.

So I downloaded Geohot’s Blackra1n tool, since it’s the “easiest jailbreak in history” or some crap that he says. It is easy… except for the fact it didn’t do ****. But I figured it wasn’t really the program’s fault, because most attempts to jailbreak don’t go right at first for the Neocell. Seems to always be the case, so I always try over and over again whenever I jailbreak ‘cuz eventuality it’ll work. But no go this time…

I checked online for some trouble shooting, and most people who said they had problems said to upgrade directly to OS 3.1.2 from iTunes (who I DO NOT recommend) and then jailbreak. I did that and well, **** kinda’ went downhill from there.

Once iTunes went through the long process of updating to iTunes 3.1.2, I then lost the ability to jailbreak at all.

Yep… now the Neocell is permanently unjailbreakable. Now, I can’t jailbreak… at all. Tried multiple ways to jailbreak, tried restoring through iTunes… all the same thing. There still could be a way to upload a jailbroken “image” through iTunes manually, but that’s only with an activated AT&T SIM and crap. I’m hoping that I can find some way to still jailbreak.

But man, this sucks. It looks like I may have to get an iPhone 3GS sooner than I thought… and wouldn’t you know, I’d end up getting one of the 3GS’s that you can’t jailbreak. Man this sucks…

Peace, J
