Blackra1n - Jailbreak Using Blackra1n Tool

If you are on iPhone OS 3.1, 3.1.1 or 3.1.2 and want the simplest jailbreak solution for your iDevice then you want the Blackra1n tool. The best feature about this jailbreak tools is that it is bundled with Blacksn0w tool which helps you to unlock your iPhone. Blackra1n was formerly known as Purplera1n which was a jailbreak solution for iPhone 3GS on iOS 3.0 only.

Just like Redsn0w, you must be on stock firmware to use this tool. Blackra1n will also hacktivate unhacktivated iPhones and is available for both Windows and Mac OS X users. For those who are still curious, blackra1n uses usb_control_msg(0x21, 2) exploit which was found in iPhone OS 3.1/3.1.1 and 3.1.2. This is why it requires you to connect your iDevice to your PC via USB cable.

There is a total of 3 versions of Blackra1n tool which are dubbed as Blackra1n RC1, Blackra1n RC2 and Blackra1n RC3. All of the three versions of Blacra1n are created by George Hotz aka Geohot. Blackra1n has been superseded by Limera1n tool.
