RedSn0w Updated to Jailbreak iOS 4.0 on iPhone 3G, iPod 2G

Posted June 10, 2010 at 9:36am by iClarified
RedSn0w has been updated to version 0.9.5 beta 5 and adds the ability to jailbreak iOS 4.0 GM seed on your iPhone 3G or iPod 2G.

---
The redsn0w beta has been updated for 4.0GM, and it now supports the iPod touch 2G too. Multitasking and homescreen wallpaper are now turned on by default (Apple doesn't normally allow this on these 2 devices). (Update: the 0.9.5b5-1 version now lets you decide whether you want multitasking and wallpaper enabled or not.)

Because 4.0GM isn't yet public, you'll need a Mac and iTunes 9.2 to use it. Since this redsn0w beta is intended only for those with legitimate developer program access, this shouldn't be a problem.


Just like our other betas, this one intentionally doesn't “hactivate”. Please wait for Apple's public release of 4.0 for that part of it.

You can follow one of our previous jailbreak tutorials to learn how to use redsn0w. We will release updated tutorials once the public version of iOS 4 is made available.
