Installer Apps Jailbroken iPhone Apps & Jailbroken iPod Touch Apps

Recently it was discovered that iTunes keeps the iBEC and iBSS files, which will be required to jailbreak an iPhone 3GS in the future, is stored in the temporary folder for Windows and Mac during any restore process. Now getting these files is easier than before, and we’ve got a guide for both Mac and Windows!

Windows

Step 1
Bring up the Run menu by pressing Windows key + R. Enter %temp% into the box and press enter. This will take Explorer to your temporary folder for your account. Make sure to organize this by date modified, most recent being first.

You must now be able to view hidden files, to do this in Vista, from the Organize menu at the top of Explorer select Folder and Search Options. Once you’re in there select View hidden files and folders and hit ok.

Step 2
Create a new folder on the desktop called Pwnage, place your iPhone 3GS 3.0 firmware there.

Step 3
Lauch iTunes.

Step 4
Connect your iPhone 3GS and restore your device by Shift+Clicking the restore button and select your 3.0 firmware.

Step 5
While the restore is taking place, keep your eye on the Explorer windows for a folder to appear with a name similar to Per518D.tmp. When it appears, select it, Control+C to copy, and Control+P to paste it into the Pwnage folder you made earlier.

You must copy the file fast, as iTunes will delete it soon!

Step 6
Put your iPhone in DFU mode.

Turn off your iPhone.

Press the Home and Sleep/Wake button and hold for 10 seconds.

Release the Sleep/Wake button and continue to hold the Home button until iTunes pops up.

Step 7
Shift+Click restore and use the same 3.0 firmware as before.

Step 8
Just like step 5, while it’s restoring watch the temp folder for a folder named PerD112.tmp. Copy and paste it into your Pwnage folder before iTunes deletes it.

Step 9
Sit back and wait for that iPhone 3GS Jailbreak tool.

Step 3
Open iTunes.

Step 4

Step 5
While the restore is in progress, watch the /tmp folder for a new folder to appear with a similar name to PersonalizedRestoreBundle.rCWW7jtHro. When it does appear, select it, press Command+C to copy, and then paste it using Command+P into your Pwnage folder.
