JAILBREAKING: How to jailbreak from redsnow

redsn0w is the jailbreaking tool used to jailbreak an iphone,ipad(first genration),ipod and apple tv .....

Redsn0w is specific to your firmware. The latest version does not jailbreak all firmware versions. Please download the tool version below based on your firmware or your operating system (MAC vs Windows).

Redsn0w v0.8 (firmware 3.0 & 3.0.1) MAC Windows
Redsn0w v0.9.4 (3.1.2, 3.1.3) MAC Windows
Redsn0w v0.9.5b5-3 (4.0 only iPhone 3g) MAC Windows
Redsn0w v0.9.6b1 (4.1 only iPhone 3g) MAC Windows v0.9.6.b4 (4.2.1, all devices) MAC  Windows
v0.9.6.rc9 (4.3.1) MAC  Windows
v0.9.6.rc14 (4.3.2) MAC  Windows New–> v0.9.6.rc16 (4.3.3) MAC Windows
This guide applies to all versions of Redsn0w. The pictures show v0.7 but this hasn’t changed. The guide has been updated for all firmwares.

(Note screenshots are from a PC, but they are the same as MAC)

Guide:
Step 1) Run redsn0w (Windows 7 users, run this in XP compatibility mode to avoid hanging on uploading firmware bundle step).

Step 2) Press “Browse” and fi!nd the correct firmware for your device.  You should have downloaded it above because you should have read the needed files section!  PLEASE make sure that if you have an iPhone 4 your firmware should start with 3,1...iPhone 3G, your firmware should start with iPhone1,2,.... iphone 3gs firmware starts with iPhone2,_1...... and if you have an iPhone 2G it should start with iPhone1,1!  This is a big deal, it won’t work without the correct firmware

Click “Open”, and redsn0w will process your firmware.  When it is done, it should say “IPSW successfully identified”.

Step 3) On the next screen you will be able to install Cydia, and I suggest you do so.  What’s the point of jailbreaking if you can’t install jailbroken apps? (rhetorical =) Note: DO NOT INSTALL ICY. At least at the point of this writing, there seem to be conflicts having both installed and Cydia handles apps better and you will have less problems.
Just hit the next button, and you will see this:

At this point, you want to turn your phone off.  Hold the power button until you see the “slide to power off”, and do it!
The next screen wants you to follow a series of instructions that will put your phone in DFU Mode.  This will allow redsn0w to perform the jailbreak.  You need to do this correctly otherwise it won’t work. If you have any problems, see our DFU mode guide.

1. Hold down the Power (corner) button for 3 seconds
2. Without releasing the Power button, push the Home (bottom center) button for 10 seconds
3. Without releasing the Home button, release the Power button BUT KEEP holding the Home button for 15 seconds.

Once redsn0w starts doing something, you can release the home button on the third step, you don’t have to hold it down for all 30.  You’ll KNOW when it happens.
Now your phone will be doing a series of things – and in the end, you will have a jailbroken iPhone!  Please comment below with success, failure, and suggestions on the short guide.

what is JAILBREAKING

So you have your iPhone(4, 3, 3gs) and you can install thousands of apps from AppStore. What’s all this commotion about jailbreaking? Why would you need to jailbreak? What does it offer? In this post, I will give some of the most compelling reasons to jailbreak your iPhone(currently iphone 4, and 3 through Firmware version 4.3.3). I will continuously update this post as changes occur.it is mentioned in the article to the firmware version 4.3.3 as after 4.3.3 update there is only tethered jailbreak...to know the what is the diffrence of the tether and untether jailbreak you can check our FAQ page..

Jailbreaking is not unlocking! It is risk free and totally legal. Everything that works before jailbreaking continues to work after. Jailbreaking only adds features. Jailbreaking is risk free but it voids your warranty but you can simply restore in iTunes at anytime to get back to a factory state. You are not alone, many people are doing it. There are over 10 million jailbroken devices now!
Basically jailbreak let us do thing which apple dosent allow us to...there are many cool tweaks(tweaks=cydia app) which change the iphone user interface makin them much better and easy..
i would suggest you to jailbreak from pwnage tool (only for mac users) or redsnow (mac & windows)....this jailbreak tools are frequently updated after a new firmware launch....
If you decide after reading this that you wish to jailbreak, head on to our jailbreak page which will be frequently updated at KUI ..^_^
