He's not released a Mac version yet though, which is a shame.

Dev team have caught up though, have some Pwnage Pie. I used PT 3.1.4 last night and the phone is now at 3.1.2 and seems ok.

The only quirk I've seen is not being able to sync custom ring tones via iTunes. They are showing up in the ringtone item within the Library section in iTunes, and I can drag and drop them to the iPhone's ringtone section, it syncs, but they are not there. iToner does get them onto the phone though, so that's something, but not sure what Apple has changed as it was working previously.

 

Looks like you need to set the phone to sync ringtones, which will wipe out any music or video on the iPhone (it does alert you to this) and then once synced, you go back in, enable "manually manage music and videos" which was previously set but the ringtone sync turned it off, then copy your music back on and it seems fine. Not tried copying another ringtone onto it yet, but will try.

 

Looked like George now has a Mac version of blackra1n.

 

Just remember that if you unlock your phone, 3.1.x wil not work with Ultrasn0w unless you just install the custom ipsw file created with the pwnage tool (thanks Marcus ).

You on 3.1.2 Steve
