We have already covered the Jailbreak for iPhone 4 and for iPhone 3GS (New BootRom), and now it’s time to jailbreak iPhone 3G under iOS 4.0 or iOS 4.0.1 using JailbreakMe. Thanks to Comex and team who gave us the easiest Jailbreak procedure ever. also, thanks to DMCA for allowing us to Jailbreak and declaring it legal. Now we don’t have to jailbreak our devices in our basements with lights off.

JailbreakMe 2.0 Star supports iPhone 4, 3GS (New BootRom and old BootRom), iPhone 3G and here we are covering iPhone 3G. so happy Jailbreaking…

[ Word of Wisdom ]JailbreakMe 2.0 Star does not hacktivate your iDevice, meaning that you need to have an original Sim to activate your iPhone. People having MMS and FaceTime problems after this Jailbreak should not worry, because JailbreakMe Star has updated and now there are no MMS and FaceTime issues. also, you might want to save your SHSH because Apple will take care of this exploit in the next update so if you want to stay on 4.0 or 4.0.1 save your SHSH.

Step 5.”Slide to Jailbreak” to start the Jailbreak process.

Step 6.The downloading process will start, wait for it to finish. It downloads a few files required to run the patch n all.

Step 7.Once downloaded, it will automatically start processing the downloaded content. make sure you don’t do anything at this point.

Step 8.Once the processes finish you’ll be notified with a message “Cydia has been added to the home screen”. Magic or what?
