Jailbreak

No public jailbreak is known for iOS 3.1.1 on iPod touch 3.

How to install iOS 3.1.1 with this IPSW

  4. Hold Option (Mac) or Shift (Windows) and click Restore. Choose iPod3,1_3.1.1_7C145_Restore.ipsw.
  5. Wait — the device restarts several times. Don’t disconnect it until you see the Hello screen.
