Thanks to Jane for dropping the tip
Some of our follower asked us they don’t have the working WiFI connection, so how can they unlock their iPhones with Blacksn0w without having WiFi connection. For them here is a workaround to Unlock iPhone 3.1.2 Blacksn0w Offline Without WiFi Cydia.

The problem is that once you switch the iphone OFF then wifi still doesn’t work.
I reset all the setting and then switch off and restart and looks working till I switch off again… is because of Switching OFF and not Reboot ?
What about gps sir?
How to fix it?
@iPhoneMod pushfix also fixes the Youtube and GPS
youtube GPS were fixed thanx guys, but the WiFi problem exists, when reseted it works but if the phone is rebooted for sum reason, the wifi doesn’t work. have to reset network settings everytime i reboot the fone. any fixes for that yet. but still im glad that the fone is unlocked hehe..
iphoneil.net remove the push fix… anyone notice that?
after resetting the network settings… my WIFI still doesnt workk!!
please help me with it!
What kind of iPhone does this wi-fi issue exist in. I have a 3GS bought in August.
Guys, I have 3GS 3.0.1 and I have lost the WIFI since 3 days and did the above “Settings>General>Reset> and hit Reset Network Settings. After resetting the network settings. Then reboot your phone and you should be fine” BUT still the same problem… please please please tell me what to do as I can’t live without my WiFi…
Thank you
On a 3GS I loose WiFi not immediately but after one or two days. Restore the OS, it works fine and keeps working. I also tried the reset and not restoring my backup. No change. BlackRa1n RC3 is still broken for me.
@ Dr. Touch GeoHot stated broken WiFi on random 3.1.2 iPhone is an Apple bug
why you removed my comments
Dear Dr. touch,
I don’t know how to restore the OS as suggested by you, shall I do it from Itunes? Then everything will disappear and it will lock my Iphne as it will do it through Apple and mine is jailbroken (unlocked Iphone 3.0 3GS). Please help, I dont know what to do to restore my Wi-Fi back!!!!
Thank you again

after jail braik, my iphone dont connect youtube, how i can fix that? thanks
I Have Installed The ‘PushFix’ And When I Went To Restart My iPhone It Wouldn’t Turn On… Just stayed At The Apple Logo… So A Complete Reset Was In Order… After That, My Wifi Now Is Messing Up… And I Still Have NO BLOODY GPS Or YouTube Dx
What’s Going On And Has Anyone Any Idea When This Will Be Fixed Or Apple Will Be Releasing A New Firmware… Agitated Much!!
none of the tips works… In trouble !
Hi guys, If in doubt, do what I have done and reset back to factory default by doing this;
Power off phone by holding in home button and power button at top right.
Once off, connect back to you comp using USB and then turn iphone back on holding in home, pressing power, and then continue to hold in the home button until iphone goes into recovery mode. Itunes will then prompt you to do a restore. This will allow you to put it back into Apple factory restored mode. As a result of the wireless dropout issue, I have had to do this about 4 times now. Everytime I do a Reset Network Settings, my iphone restarts but fails to boot. It gets stuck in a infinite loop of booting, crashing and then rebooting. I am going to try a different jailbreaking tool or wait until blackrain has problems ironed out. No offence to blackrain developer/s because it is an awesome tool, but the little quirks that occur arent worth the pain of having to restore and then recopy everything back onto the phone again.
Hey
I have had the 3GS since August, jailbroke it the first day with redsn0w, love it.
My Dads just got the 3GS, on 5.11.07 and 3.1.2 firmware.
And I agree with Ross. I’ve had to reboot 3 times now, each time after hitting the “reset network settings” button. This might fix the WiFi, but we lose the jailbreak, so why on earth would it help?
What am I doing wrong?
AMAZING THANKS SOOO MUCH I DID EXACTLY WOT u SED FOR THE WIFI PROBLEM N NOW EVERYTHING IS OK !!
Resetting the network settings will not make u loose the jailbreak. At least i didnt when i did the reset. ull loose the jailbreak after resetting the phone but not network settings.
couldnt find pushfix anymore on the mentionned cydia source.. any new source available to get it from
Push Notifications Fix : Launch the cydia and add the following repo “ http://cydia.iphoneil.net/ ” then search for “ pushfix “ and install this patch. By doing this your push notification bug caused by blackra1n will be patched.
Above tip is no good… i added iPhoneil.net and dont find “pushfix” in it. Any other alternate way, still not able to launch YOUTUBE.

Hi all
I have been having the same wifi issues on the iphone 2g. The issue on the iphone 2g seems to be different from the iphone 3g / 3gs. The reset all network setting will not work nor will resetting the iphone.
The wifi stopped working after i used blackra1n.
I have tried resetting all settings, using different jail break solutions, and going back to older operating systems. The wifi is still broken.
I have read that the issue is caused by corruption in the baseband, through buggy jailbreak solutions. This is not the first time this issue has occurred on the 2g iphone, the original jail break from geohot, ziphone, used to cause this issue sometimes.
The FIX from what I have read is called swifi, it is made by the iphone dev team. The only thing I cannot work out is how to get it onto the iphone. People use to use iliberty+ to put it on as a payload, but now it seems far more difficult. any ideas of how to put it into a pwnage custom firmware?
Worked for me, thanks!
I did all the jail breaking and the push fix and everything that i can to fix the bug on the iphone after unlocking with blacksn0w. But i could not fix one problem… when ever i make a call the iphone screen goes blank(black) and does not come back…nothing works not even the power or the home buttons. My only option would be connecting the iphone to the itune and wait for display to come back. Is any one having this problem. Can anyonw fix it..???
you guys are fantastic, fixed everything…Thank YOU!!
I have unlocked with blackra1n and run blacksn0w. My iPhone 3G works perfectly except I cannot run apps. I can install apps from the iTunes store, but when I launch any app it quits instantly. I have tried restoring and re-jailbreaking. It used to work whilst jailbroken with apps, but the apps have not worked since my husband helpfully updated my iPhone to 3.1.2 via iTunes which updated the baseband!
Can anyone help me? Please!
Hi i have jailbreaked my iPhone 3GS yesterday and it was all fine and I did realized that it never connected to any WiFi so far even though I had it enabled. Prior to jailbreaking I had updated my firmware from 3.1 to 3.1.2 and updated carrier settings too. Since my WiFi is not working I reseted my network settings. Now it is struck at apple logo repeatedly while going blank in between after sometime. Please help me.
please help… i have no internet connection after i jailbreak my iphone 3g 3.12…

Hi i have problem with my wi-fi i can not be connected on wi-fi. I have reset network connection still not working what to do now please help.?????
Hey guys, had this problem with no Wifi on my gf’s iPhone 3GS (3.12 firmware 5.11.07 baseband), I did the network settings reset and the problems still persisted.
Then I proceeded to do it a few more times, resetting everything and it worked. Unfortuately with my setup I have to use blackra1n to reset it each time.
But this works! Key point, reset it a few times, reset everything and it should be good. Thanks for making this fix-tip!
Hi all, for those who are having troubles with reset network settings – I had too and I found a solution. Go to settings => general => reset => reset all settings.
It worked for me after I tried anything else. The only down side is that you will have to rearrange your icons – they are all mixed…
I hope I was helpful
iPhone 3Gs 3.1.2 OS blackrain
