redsn0w 0.9beta3
What is it?
A cross-platform jailbreaking, unlocking, and customizing tool for iPhones and iPod touches. Customizations include boot logos, recovery logos, and “verbose” boot. It's a standalone program that doesn't use iTunes (no custom IPSWs are involved). The download links are at the bottom of this page. We've been offering redsn0w in various incarnations over the years (including poorlad's windows version of QuickPwn).
What devices, platforms, and FW versions are supported?
The beta supports:
*
All iPhones and iPod touches except the iPod touch 3G
*
Windows and Mac OSX (x86)
*
Firmware 3.0 and 3.1.2
How is it different from PwnageTool?
redsn0w doesn't require a system restore like PwnageTool does (it doesn't even use iTunes at all). On the other hand, PwnageTool can prevent your baseband from being upgraded when you upgrade your firmware, preserving your unlock. (redsn0w doesn't touch your baseband but it doesn't help preserve it during an upgrade either).
How is it different from blackra1n?
It differs from blackra1n because:
*
It uses our original Pwnage bootrom exploit for iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, and iPod 1G. (Because it's a bootrom exploit, it can't be fixed by Apple without a new hardware release.) Note that redsn0w 0.9 does use the USB exploit for iPhone 3GS and iPod 2G running 3.1.2, but that exploit will be fixed in Apple's next FW release.
*
It offers custom logos and verbose boot
*
It installs Cydia without needing a separate download
*
It's not as fast http://www.sinfuliphone.com/sinfulss/smilies/smile.gif (but redsn0w handles more variations http://www.sinfuliphone.com/sinfulss/smilies/smile.gif)
What's different if I have a late-model device
If you have a late-model iPhone 3GS, or if you have an iPod touch 2G whose serial number begins with “MC”, then you are currently restricted to “tethered” rebooting. That means you need to connect your device to a computer to complete the boot after a reset. Also, these devices cannot have custom logos.
redsn0w will ask you whether or not you fit in this category when used with the iPhone 3GS or iPod touch 2G. If you have a late-model device and don't give redsn0w the correct answer, you will likely need to do a system restore to recover from the mistake.
To do a tethered boot after your late-model device resets for some reason, either run redsn0w again and select “Just boot tethered right now”, or run blackra1n.
What if I'm already jailbroken?
If you're already jailbroken, redsn0w can still be used to change your boot logos, revert back to the stock logos, or switch verbose booting on and off. By selecting “Already Pwned” you can bypass the steps normally needed to enter the jailbroken state.
Is it safe?
The Windows version has been tested by small groups of volunteers on IRC and our blog since mid-January. That being said, this is still a beta and if things go wrong you may have to do a system restore…so make sure your data is synced before trying the beta.
Beta feedback
redsn0w is in beta until we get iPod Touch 3G and linux support added. In the meantime, please send any feedback to musclenerd (either gmail or iphone-dev.org), or tweet with a #redsn0w tag.
