I just bought a 16GB 3GS from a guy whose "cousin did something to it 3 weeks ago" that is fully jailbroken (untethered) with everything working, no activation screen, SAM reports it as "FactoryActivate" which means hacktivated. It is on baseband version 5.16.05. This is not a joke. I know you will all brush this off and dismiss it as just another prank but I have the firmware uploading now and will post the link shortly. Here are some screen shots and the chipmunk.nl report on the serial.

Can anybody shed some light on the subject? I would be happy to run some commands or dump some smaller files while the ipsw uploads (my internet is pretty slow as the moment). Anybody need any extra proof while we are waiting? I will put this thing up for a pepsi challenge any day.


...now if I can only find the kid who jailbroke it

I can't believe no one is replying *BUMP* ...this is not a joke I need some assistance
 
wow...the point is i dont know who jailbroke (untethered) this iphone and want to know what I can do to help the iphone community by providing information about the device. I am unsure as to what to do to get the system files/browse the system.

If you're on 5.1 and you're untethered that just means that you have the old bootrom which has an untethered jailbreak for life, nothing special about your situation as far as I can tell.

How could 5.1 on a 4S "ever" have an old bootrom?
