This does require a couple downloads. I have included the links to all the downloads needed. So all the information and site url’s are found here in this post. I am trying to stay updated with all the jailbreaking news so if you need to stay updated as well please subscribe to the sites feed or through email. Here is the process you need to follow in order to jailbreak your idevice with firmware 4.2.1 or later. this DOES NOT include the Verizon iPhone. It can be jailbroken but the process and downloads are a little different.
Supported Devices for the RedSnow Untethered Jailbreak on firmware 4.3.4
• iPhone3GS
• iPhone4 (GSM)
• iPod touch 3G
• iPod touch 4G
• iPad1
• AppleTV2G (v4.3 8F202…see update #2 below for the v4.3 8F305 bundle)
Some things to note:
1. ultrasn0w unlockers must stay away from redsn0w! Use only a custom IPSW to update to 4.3.3, to avoid updating your baseband. There are plenty of tutorials for both redsn0w and PwnageTool at sites like iphonecaptain.com or iphoneforums.net. Or feel free to ask away in my comments section below.
2. ultrasn0w has been updated to v1.2.3 to be compatible with iOS 4.3.3 and earlier (the ultrasn0w update does not include any new baseband support!). Please reboot your iPhone using the normal “slide to power off” swipe after installing ultrasn0w 1.2.3.
3. By popular demand, redsn0w now allows you to enable multitasking gestures (although most will find it useful only on iPads).
4. iPad2 update: The iPad2 jailbreak remains under development. As you may know, the original exploit @comex developed in the first week of the iPad2 release was mysteriously fixed by Apple within days of its development. Partly because of this, don’t expect much public discussion of the iPad2 jailbreak until it’s actually finished and ready for release (and please avoid asking about it). In all liklihood, it will be a userland exploit like the first (unreleased) one, not dependent on bootrom dumps. The first one can’t be released even for those with the original 4.3 firmware due to legal (distribution) reasons.
Here’s a link to any firmware downloads you may need.
