DjayB6 (@DjayB6) has just released PwnageTool bundles to jailbreak  iPhone 3GS 4.3.1 (Old+New Bootrom). You can use these bundles to create iOS 4.3.1 custom IPSW for iPhone 3GS which on restore through iTunes will jailbreak your iPhone on iOS 4.3.1 with fully working Cydia. It is a tethered jailbreak which require you to use TetheredBoot Utility to put your iPhone into tethered jailbroken state on every restart.


Note: Ultrasn0w is still broken on iOS 4.3.1 due to Apple ASLR security feature. If you rely on an unlocked iPhone, STAY AWAY from these bundles until iPhone Dev-Team releases a more stable jailbreak with a fix for Ultrasn0w.
