what is blackra1n ?

blackra1n is a utility that jailbreaks version 3.1.2 of the iPhone OS. It achieves this by patching the firmware of the device “on the fly” – meaning it edits the firmware located on the device whilst in DFU (recovery) mode. It allows users to install either Cydia, Icy (Cancelled in RC3), Rock, or all three. This allows the user access to tweaks, homebrew applications, and the root directory and file system. Blackra1n can also tether jailbreak the iPod Touch 3G and the iPhone 3GS with the updated bootrom.
