NOV 2010 : DiskAid 4.11 has some serious bugs.

I was in the process of RENAMING a FILE (an MP3). As I was typing the new name, I wanted to remove an extra character .. so I pressed DELETE on the keyboard. DiskAid then RENAMED the entire FOLDER (where the file being renamed resided) which resulted in the folder’s new name being the SAME as the file I was trying to rename (the partial name at the moment I pressed delete key).

After I realized what happened – a major screw-up by Digidna.net), I renamed the folder back to its original name. When I opened the folder this time, the file I was trying to rename was DELETED! How did this happen?!

And there’s NO “are you sure” confirmation prompt .. NOR an undo function!!

I am very dismayed. What, if any, type of QA (quality assurance) testing is the developer performing before this stuff is released to the public? This mistakes / bugs are costly to us consumers.

i wouldnt say Blackrain is crappy. is easy and simple to use for newbie people, the only problem i found was that i couldnt access the root directory, but thanks to you thats no longer a problem.
peace out.

For all those talking about rebooting devices and having reset your iPhone to factory settings.

Apple fixed a weakness in their latest update to 3.1.2 so if you have updated to 3.1.2 or bought a phone after the fix. You wont be able to jailbreak freely. The only jailbreak working for 3.1.2 afaik is the Blackra1n Tethered jailbreak.

Tethered jailbreak means that you have to Plug your iphone into the PC while blackra1n is running when you reboot your device. So for instance installing winterboard, or running out of battery. You will need to restart your device while plugged in. This is a hassle I know, but it’s the only way for those who have updated to the latest baseband.

If you have a PRE 3.1.2 iPhone DO NOT use iTunes to update, get pwnagetool and update to 3.1.2 through the tool, and you will KEEP your old baseband, and you can have a fully jailbroken iPhone.

Rumour is that there will be a jailbreak for 3.1.2 but not untill Apple release their fourth generation phone. till then, we have to make do with a tethered jailbrea.

I have a 2g iphone and jbroke it with blackra1n. I had the youtube issue and installed the pushfix app, and rebooted the phone and it was fine. I also had the issue of viewing root and had to install another app from cydia to make the fix to view from iphonebrowser app. Other than that, it is still definately worth checking out and seeing if it works for u.

good luck.

I JB my device with blackrain… Everything worked fine for a while. Until about two weeks later. It just gets stuck on the apple screen and I have to restore my phone everytime. This last time, I decided not to install winterboard. I haven’t had a problem since. Just sucks because a major reason for JBing was to customize thngs. Everything is whacked out. Help….
