Redsn0w 0.9.6 Beta For iOS 4.0, 4.1 Released

#Redsn0w 0.9.6 Beta For iOS 4.0, 4.1http://snapvoip.blogspot.com/
iPhone Dev Team's latest redsn0w for the iPhone3G and iPod Touch 2G sporting Apple Firmware 4.1 or 4.0 is ready for tasting or any other use. The iPhone Dev Team tells us that this uses the same pwnage2 DFU-mode exploit that they were using since long time ago. They also mention that Apple does not know more than they knew already, with this iPhone Jailbreak.

IF YOU USE THE ULTRASN0W UNLOCK, PLEASE WAIT FOR PWNAGETOOL TO SUPPORT 4.1. DO NOT USE REDSN0W.

Because it is not wise as you might lose ultrasn0w unlock (possibly forever), because you have to have updated to official iOS 4.1, in order to use Redsn0w 0.9.6 Beta.


Only the Mac OS X x86 version available as of now because the Windows version needs further testing. Keep watching iPhone Dev Team site or here for Windows version, as it will come as soon as the bugs are ironed out.
Another note mentioned by the team is that

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) 

The Redsn0w 0.9.6 BETA supports and needs following:

• 
  
  iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G only (for now)
• 
  
  Mac OS X x86 only (for now)
• 
  
  4.1 or 4.0 firmware from Apple

Once you have updated your device to 4.1 or 4.0, then do the following to get your iDevice jailbroken:

1. 
   
   Launch the beta redsn0w 0.9.6b1
2. 
   
   Select your stock 4.1 or 4.0 ipsw (you've already used this to update your device to 4.1 or 4.0)
3. 
   
   Select “Install Cydia” and click “Next”. Use DFU mode to install the jailbreak.

Note: If you choose to “Enable battery percentage”, you actually toggle that off and on via Settings→General→Usage.
