This is a beta release and more stable than the older versions, the process is fully optimized and functional. But only concern el bluetooth and application Skypee still instabale.

All iDevices can jailbreak under iOS 4.2.1 with the Redsn0wn software by following this guide, but some models have some constraints upon the termination or restart the iDevice.

You Needs to have saved SHSH signed for a firmware iOS 4.2b3 at the time. follow this guide to jailbreak untethered.

Update # 2: The Second Beta Is Now Available (testers ONLY please!). This version should "fix All the native app crashes (Including Task Switcher). That's the only change from beta1 in .... Bluetooth Is Still disabled.

Update # 3: The Third Beta Is Now Available (testers ONLY please!). This version extends The Fix made in beta2 over to the Non-GUI Programs too (That Like the daemons handle media content). That should "cover Things like FaceTime, Winterboard themes, and embedded videos in iTunes. If You Had trouble physician before usbmuxd in previous betas, please wait Until We Incorporate Into That redsn0w Itself (ie Do not Bother Trying this beta3, Just Wait for the integration).

Update # 4: The fourth beta Is Now Available (testers ONLY please!). Starting with this version, redsn0w No Longer Requires you to install and run a program Separate pour la usbmux (This Was a non-trivial procedure for many). It's okay to keep running That program if you use it for ssh Normally anyway. We think we've fixed a aussi Status In The Race That Was Causing redsn0w GUI to crash "during the" Preparing Monte JB Files "step. Nothing at all has changed on the iPhone side (Where the hand exits are "still just Bluetooth and Skype).

If you have a failure with redsn0w to leave your iDevice DFU mode (black screen), hold Home + ON button for about fifteen seconds.
