Jailbreak Your iPhone 3GS & 4, iPod touch 3G & 4G and iPad on iOS 4.2.1 Using redsn0w 0.9.6b5
Take just a moment to go ahead and patch the jailbreak data, and then we can go ahead and choose a couple of options so while it's there, we go that while it's loading um their options will be different depending on what device you have so I am doing this on an iPod Touch 4th generation so as you can see here I don't have that many options however if you have an iPhone 3G or an iPod touch second generation you have quite a few more and now keep in mind it's pretty much all up to you the main thing is as long as you have installed Cydia checked you're pretty much good to go.
Now there are a few other things uh like I said if you have an iPhone 3G or an iPod touch second generation you might want to go ahead and enable multitasking you can go ahead and enable custom logo custom recovery logos but again that is all optional as long as you have installed Cydia checked you're going to be good to go.
I do want to mention one thing, you will definitely need to pay attention to this boot tethered as this is what you're going to need to do whenever you know reboot your device, you're going to need to go ahead and rerun red snow and click this and rerun it so definitely keep that in mind you don't need to do it right now but you will at a later date.
So now we'll go ahead and click next, and we're ready to continue on and show you exactly how to do this. Okay, so now at this point, we need to go ahead and put our device into dfu mode and this is pretty simple, you need to go ahead and just plug it into the computer, so make sure it's connected via USB, connect it, and then shut it off, so just go ahead and not like you know hit the power button but make sure it hold it until it says slide to power off and slide to do it.
Now I've already done this just to save a little bit of time, but yeah, so now we're going to ready to go ahead and begin. Now we're going to need to try to make sure you guys can watch, so as soon as we click next, we're going to start holding the power button for three seconds and it does catch you down.
Now we're going to need to start holding the home button for about 10 seconds now if you drop any of the button or whatever you can go ahead and hold them both for about 10 seconds and it will reboot there we go, now we're going to continue just holding the home button without uh pressing the power button and I'm just going to keep holding this until Red Snow gives us the okay and there we go.
So there you go, guys, that's pretty much it. The program will take just a minute so just leave your device alone, and I'll be right back as soon as it's done.
Okay, so if you have any device that was unto the jailbreak, you're all set as soon as it finished up, you're good to go. Now if you do have a device that is Tethered and you know it boots and you see just a white Cydia logo, you will need to rerun Red Snow to get it to boot uh now this is pretty simple, you're going to need to do this, you'll probably find yourself doing this quite a bit but uh yeah so anyway guys, it's the same process just go ahead and rerun it and just click boot tether um.
So there you go, guys, that's it. Um really I don't recommend this for everyone 4.2 is not a huge update there's not a whole lot new in it to be honest and it's kind of a little bit annoying to have to deal with the jailbreak for most devices however if you want to do it, you can go ahead obviously and showed you with the tutorial so yeah if you have any questions any comments anything like that feel free to leave them in the comment section below, and I'll do my best to get back to as many of you as I can.

unlock your iPhone 3G or your iPhone 3GS and I'm not going to get into the unlock tutorial on this video it's very simple I'm just going to go ahead and show you how to jailbreak your device to get started so before we begin I do want to mention a couple of things the first thing is is that this is a tethered jailbreak for most devices I tethered jailbreak if you don't know what that means basically it indicates that you will need to go ahead and plug your device in every time it shuts entirely off now it's a little bit more complicated not you might not always have to do this depending on if you depending on what apps you install insidia sometimes you actually might be able to boot uh untethered and your jailbreak just won't be there so it's a little bit complicated however do know that for most devices you will need to rerun Red Snow every time you shut off the device uh now it's not tethered for all devices if you do have an iPhone 3G an iPhone 3GS old boot ROM or an iPod touch second generation MB model if you have one of those three devices then no worries whatsoever this isn't totally untethered however if you have any of the newer devices such as an iPad an iPhone 4 an iPod Touch 4th generation if you have any of those and a couple of others you will have a tethered jailbreak so I did want to let you guys know about that okay so the first step is going to be to download Red Snow I will have a link to where you can download it for Windows or Mac in the description and now once you do this if you're on a Mac you can skip this step however if you're on Windows Vista or Windows 7 you're going to need to do one additional feature so what we're going to need to do is go ahead and right click the red snow I'm going to go ahead and come down to properties now we're going to go ahead and come over compatibility and click run this program in compatibility mode for Windows XP Service Pack 3. I'll go ahead and we're also going to need to run this program as an administrator so there are some problems if you don't do this in Vista and Windows 7 if you're running XP I don't think you should have any problems but definitely be sure to run it as an administrator and run it in Windows XP Service Pack 3. so let's go ahead and apply this and hit OK and now we're ready to go ahead and continue so let's go ahead and just open it up and there we go so now we're ready to go ahead and continue the jailbreak um so the next thing you're going to need to do is find the ipsw the 4.2.1 ipsw for your device now I will have another Link in the description showing you how to find it it's pretty simple okay so once red snow is found your ipsw file and successfully identified it we can go ahead and continue on um so it'll take just a moment to go ahead patch the jailbreak data and then we can go ahead and choose a couple of options so while it's there we go that while it's loading um their options will be different depending on what device you have so I am doing this on an iPod Touch 4th generation so as you can see here I don't have that many options however if you have an iPhone 3G or an iPod touch second generation you have quite a few more and now keep in mind it's pretty much all up to you the main thing is as long as you have a install Cydia checked you're pretty much good to go now there are a few other things uh like I said if you have an iPhone 3G or an iPod touch second generation you might want to go ahead and enable multitasking you can go ahead and enable custom logo custom recovery logos but again that is all optional as long as you have installed city of checks you're going to be good to go as I'm going to believe this alone although I do want to mention one thing you will definitely need to pay attention to this boot tethered as this is what you're going to need to do whenever you need to you know reboot your device you're going to need to go ahead and rerun red snow and click this and rerun it so definitely keep that in mind you don't need to do it right now but you will at a later date so now we'll go ahead and click next and we're ready to continue on and show you exactly how to do this okay so now at this point we need to go ahead and put our device into dfu mode and this is pretty simple you need to go ahead and just plug it into the computer so make sure it's connected via USB connect it and then shut it off so just go ahead and not like you know hit the power button but make sure it hold it until it says slide to power off and slide to do it now I've already done this just to save a little bit of time but yeah so now we're going to ready to go ahead and begin now we're going to need to try to make sure you guys can watch so as soon as we click next we're going to start holding the power button for three seconds and it does catch you down now we're going to need to start holding the home button for about 10 seconds now if you drop any of the button or whatever you can go ahead and hold them both for about 10 seconds and it will reboot there we go now we're going to continue just holding the home button without uh pressing the power button and I'm just going to keep holding this until Red Snow gives us the okay and there we go so there you go guys that's pretty much it the program will take just a minute so just leave your device alone and I'll be right back as soon as it's done okay so if you have any device that was an unto the jailbreak you're all set as soon as it finished up you're good to go now if you do have a device that is Tethered and you know it boots and you see just a white Cydia logo you will need to rerun Red Snow to get it to boot uh now this is pretty simple you're going to need to do this you'll probably find yourself doing this quite a bit but uh yeah so anyway guys it's the same process just go ahead and rerun it and just click boot tether um so there you go guys that's it you're not jailbroken on iOS 4.2.1 and if you have an iPhone you can go ahead optionally and continue on and install Ultra snow now so there you go guys that's it um really I don't recommend this for everyone 4.2 is not a huge update there's not a whole lot new in it to be honest and it's kind of a little bit annoying to have to deal with the jailbreak for most devices however if you want to do it you can go ahead obviously and showed you with the tutorial so yeah if you have any questions any comments anything like that feel free to leave them in the comment section below and I'll do my best to get back to as many of you as I can so anyway guys thanks thanks for watching
