Dev-Team has just released a fresh beta version of redsn0w version 0.9.6 b1 for Windows, which allows users to jailbreak iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G on iOS 4.1. The same tool for Mac is already existing as we reported you the last few weeks.
The Dev-Team warned who use ultrasn0w to unlock their devices, to stay away from redsn0w, and wait for PwnageTool to support iOS 4.1. that is because to use redsn0w at 4.1, you need to already have updated to official 4.1 from Apple, if you do that you will lose the ultrasn0w unlock.
This BETA release supports:
This BETA release supports:
- iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G only (for now)
- Mac OS X x86 and Windows only (for now)
- 4.1 or 4.0 firmware from Apple
Note: if you have an “MC” model of the ipt2g, your 4.1 jailbreak will be tethered…sorry! (Consider rolling back to a FW supported by jailbreakme.com or spiritjb.com)
Any Windows users seeing “Waiting for reboot” for too long (more than 20 seconds or so), please try “shaking” the JB process by unplugging then replugging your USB cable (while letting redsn0w continue to run). Also, try using a USB port “closer” to your computer (as opposed to on your monitor or behind another hub). We’re still tweaking the Windows flow and so any feedback you can provide will help!
