Bumping because i'm sort of in the same boat.
Is changing the baseband from the 3GS' to the iPad's really dangerous? I'm wondering how it could be reverted if something were to go wrong?
Not cool dude. Not cool.

Been jailbreaking for years now but never had to unlock a phone before.
Gave my mom my 3GS when I bought the 4S.
With news of this new jailbreak out, I'm assuming the unlock for 3GS is still not out right?

I haven't jailbroken in a while, but last I remember about a year ago it was no more difficult than updating the official iOS fw.
I'd like a guide to update my iPad 1 5.0 to JB 5.0.1. Can I get this right, though; all my games I bought/got are still there, plus I can get new stuff from cydia. Right?
Jailbreaking is considerably less painful than updating firmware. I had a text arrive just before jailbreaking that was still in my notification centre afterwards, all apps and music etc. will still be there as well.
All you need to do is make sure you're on 5.0.1, maybe have a quick look at videos of putting a device in DFU mode if you've never done it before (The installer will walk you through it though) and download Redsn0w.
Oh and run it as an administrator if you're in windows.

if you don't need to preserve the baseband (for those who can unlock their phones) the guide is as easy as updating your a4 idevice to 5.0.1 then download and run redsnow 0.9.10b1 and you're done.

Well well, it's about fucking time!!
First update your iPad to 5.0.1.
Then go to iphone-dev.org, download redsn0w, run it and follow the instructions.
Thanks, I had already went there and the download link wasn't working, but now it is. I'll post again to let everyone know how it went.

Has anyone gone about setting up Siri Proxy for the Spire port?
Supposedly a public one will be set up here - http://www.ijailbreak.com/spire-proxy-host-list/
I imagine it'll last a few minutes before thousands of users and/or Apple shut it down.

Ok, is there any way to backup my text messages without jailbreaking?
Just JB'd my phone, first timer here and it's overwhelming to explore all the possibilities. Not gonna mess with any themes or ugly stuff, but added functionality possibilities are cool.
But why aren't the multitasking gestures working, is it an iPad only thing that for some reason is included into the phone settings too?

BiteSMS on iOS5 is really sweet, totally how the default messenges app should have been.
Do you mean export them out so as to read them using something else?
Because text messages are backed up with everything else via iTunes/iCloud.

Any ideas on untethered JB for 3GS with new bootrom? Also, updated my 3GS that was jailbroken to 5.1 OS. Is it just my phone or is iOS 5.01 on the 3GS considerably slower than say iOS 4.2? Finally, the last couple of months my battery has been extremely inconsistent. It will show that I have 30% battery left and then it just shuts down. It happens consistently now once it hits the 25-30% level. I want to upgrade but am waiting for next years phone so I'm hoping this one will last until then.
Whats the mileage on your battery?

Well I've had the phone since October of 2009 so yea, I know it's way past due. But I'm trying to hold until the last minute lol as I just bought an iPad/TV, can't upgrade just yet lol. Also, I use it daily for hours. Whether its streaming NetFlix, etc.

Exactly, I want to export them in a text file, csv file, pdf, or something! Already downloaded the software above, will try it!
My reminders icon disappeared, I resprung and it came back.
I've rebooted my phone and resprung and neither of them have come back. Ideally its not that big of a deal (since I don't use either apps), but its an OCD thing.
One app to install from Cydia is Nonewsisgoodnews, it gets rid of the Newstand folder (for those of us who can't stand it).
Gonna restore my phone and try it again. Nothing I do seems to bring them back.

Finally! I can use LockInfo again. Apple's notification system is piss poor in comparison.

I can't find "nonewsisgoodnews" on Cydia search. Any ideas? Update: Nothing shows up under the BigBoss source...odd.
Edit: Do I need to install Corona or is it already untethered?
