Ok, because I'm a sadist (and I heard blackra1n 3 is out I tried again). And again same problem. Did the steps mentioned above. Heres the problem that differs from others. "itunes has detected an IPOD in revoery mode. You must retore the ipod before it can be used with itunes" Weird huh ? Any help or suggestion is greatly appreciated

What I've read is that you have to run BlackRain each time you reboot because it's a tethered JB on Touches that are produced after Oct 2009. I JBd my GFs touch, and the same thing happened when it rebooted. All you have to do is run BlackRain again, and it will come up fine. You only have to do this after you've shut the power off. Apparently the same thing holds true for new 3GS ...

I used iTunes 8.0+... when I used 9.01 it had many problems. After hearing that I downgraded to 8.0+ and the jailbreak went fine.
