Sn0wbreeze 2.1 iOS 4.1 Jailbreak for All iOS Devices Released [Custom Firmware Windows]

Sn0wbreeze 2.1 for iOS 4.1 / 3.2.2 is now available for download. If any of the existing iOS 4.1 jailbreak tools didn’t work for you, you can give Sn0wbreeze 2.1 a try! For those of you who don’t know, like PwnageTool for Mac, Sn0wbreeze for Windows can be used to create custom firmware files for iOS 4.1 without the upgraded baseband so that you can unlock iOS 4.1 (05.13.04 baseband) with existing version of Ultrasn0w.

Download Redsn0w 0.9.6 for Windows to Jailbreak iOS 4.1 on iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G

We’ve released a beta version of redsn0w for the iPhone3G and iPod Touch 2G at FW 4.1 or 4.0.  It uses the same pwnage2 DFU-mode exploit that we’ve been using since the 2.x days.  It does not include the SHAtter exploit developed by pod2g.  Nothing new is revealed to Apple with this jailbreak.

Jailbreak iOS 4 iPhone 3GS 3G with Sn0wbreeze [Custom Firmware Windows]

Sn0wbreeze 1.6 has been released. This is by the same developer who is behind other popular iPhone jailbreak tools such as sn0wbreeze for iPhone 3.1.3, f0recast andBlackBreeze. Just like the PwnageTool for Mac, Sn0wbreeze 1.6 can jailbreak iPhone 3GS (old bootrom, and already pwned on 3.1.2 with anything other than Spirit), iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G (non MC model).

So if you have a Windows machine, you can use Sn0wbreeze 1.6 to create custom firmware files without the upgraded baseband. Again, just like the PwnageTool 4.0 / 4.01, only the following devices are supported.

• iPhone 3G/3GS (old bootrom/already jailbroken with anything other than Spirit)
• iPod Touch 2G (non MC model)

Instructions are as follows.
Step 1: Download and install the latest version of iTunes.
Step 2: Now start iTunes and sync your iPhone with your PC so that it backs-up all your important data including settings, apps, music, contacts and photos.
Step 3: Download Sn0wbreeze and the original iOS 4 firmware file for your version of iPhone or iPod touch (download links given below). Move all these files to your desktop.
Step 4: Start Sn0wbreeze and select “Simple Mode”.

Step 5: Sn0wbreeze will now ask you to browse for your .ipsw file. Select the correct iOS 4 firmware .ipsw file by clicking the “Browse” button. Sn0wbreeze will verify the selected file and then will present you with following screen.

Step 6: Click on "Yes" when Sn0wbreeze asks you “Do you want to activate your iPhone?” for hacktivation. Click on “No” only if you are on an officially supported carrier like AT&T.

Step 7: Sn0wbreeze will now create the custom .ipsw file for your iPhone which will be jailbroken.

Step 8: Now you will have to restore your iPhone to this custom firmware 4.0 that you just cooked using Sn0wbreeze for your iPhone. Click on your phone from the sidebar in iTunes and then press and hold left “Shift” button on the keyboard and then click on “Restore” (Not “Update” or “Check for Update”) button in the iTunes and then release the “Shift” button.
This will make iTunes prompt you to select the location for your custom firmware 4.0. Select that custom .ipsw file and click on “Open”.
Step 9: Now sit back and enjoy as iTunes does the rest for you. This will involve a series of automated steps. Be patient at this stage and don’t do anything silly. Just wait while iTunes installs the new iOS 4 on your iPhone. Your iPhone screen at this point will be showing a progress bar indicating installation progress. After the installation is done, iPhone will restart automatically and you should now have a fully jailbroken iPhone running on iOS 4.
How to: Unlock iPhone on iOS 4.0 (Any Baseband): Follow the complete step by step guide posted here to unlock iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G, on iOS 4, on any baseband using Ultrasn0w 0.93.
Step 10: Once you are done with the unlocking and jailbreak process. You can now restore all your settings, apps, music, contacts and photos to the newly installed iOS 4 by restoring the backup that you made in Step 2 from iTunes.

Save SHSH Blobs (ECID SHSH) of iOS 4 on Windows and Mac

TinyUmbrella has been updated to support the new iOS 4 on iPhone 3GS and iPod touch 2G/3G. iPad is also supported but iOS 4 for iPad isn’t available yet. iPhone 3G is not supported because you don’t need to save SHSH blobs for iPhone 3G, and older iPod touch (non MC model).

This is important if you want to jailbreak (by downgrading) your device again should Apple patches the exploit used by the new unlock and jailbreak tools. It is also important to note that you wont be able to save SHSH blobs once Apple has released the new firmware (iOS 4.0.1 / iOS 4.1). This is because Apple will stop signing the iOS 4 firmware once the new one has been released, hence negating you to save your iOS Device SHSH files.

Use the step by step guide posted below to save your SHSH blobs (ECID SHSH) of iPhone 3GS, iPod touch 2G/3G on iOS 4 without having to jailbreak your device.

Step 1: Download the latest beta version of TinyUmbrella for Windows, Mac or Linux.

Step 2: Make sure you are running iTunes > 9.0. iTunes 9.2 is recommended.

Step 3: Start the program and plug in any ONE of the supported iDevices (iPhone/iPad/iPod touch).

Step 4: Click on “Save My SHSH”. TinyUmbrella will now grab the signature for you.

It will be enabled again once a ticket has been generated to save it to saurik’s server.

This is it ! You should be safe now. Make sure you save the signature for your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch on file before Apple releases the next firmware.
