The iPhone Dev-Team released RedSn0w 0.9.8b5 that supports tethered jailbreak for the most recent iOS 5 beta 5:
redsn0w has been updated to 0.9.8b5, adding support for Apple’s new iOS5 beta5 (point it directly at the beta5 IPSW). Please use this only if you’re a jailbreak app developer with a legit Apple dev account, and remember it’s a tethered jailbreak for now!
You can download RedSn0w 0.9.8b5 for Windows and Mac OS .
The iPhone Dev-Team has released RedSn0w 0.9.8b3 which can perform a tethered jailbreak on iOS 4.3.4. This means that you will have to connect your device to a computer and run redsn0w each time you restart.
For the convenience of kernel hackers like @comex and @i0n1c, we have a new redsn0w 0.9.8b3 that supports a TETHERED jailbreak for iOS 4.3.4 on all devices that have 4.3.4 except the iPad2. The vast majority of people will want to stay back at 4.3.3 because that’s where the untethered jailbreak is! There are no new features in 4.3.4 – only fixes for jailbreak exploits.
Also, this is a good time to remind everyone (since we’re still seeing confusion about this): iPad2 owners with a baseband (3G or CDMA) cannot currently use saved blobs to go back to 4.3.3 once the signing window is closed. This is unlike every other device, so don’t be confused! iPad2 owners with basebands should stay away from all updates to maintain your jailbreak!
This jailbreak works with iPhone 3GS, , iPad 1, iPod Touch 3G and iPod Touch 4G. It does not work with iPad 2.

iOS 5 beta 3 is jailbreakable by RedSn0w 0.9.8 b1. DevTeam hacker MuscleNerd has confirmed that the RedSn0w 0.9.8 b1 jailbreak works . All you have to do is to point it to a downloaded iOS 5 beta 1 firmware ipsw.
Today’s 5.0b3 can be jailbroken with last month’s redsn0w http://is.gd/6eek4Y (point it at 5.0b1 IPSW..devs only please!)
RedSn0w 0.9.8 b1 jailbreak works on all devices, exect iPad 2. This means you can get a tethered jailbreak on Windows and Mac OS for iPhone 3GS, , iPod Touch 3G, iPod Touch 4G and iPad 1.
You can download RedSn0w 0.9.8 b1 for Windows and Mac OS here.
We didn’t have to wait long for the Windows version of recently released iOS 5 jailbreak utility for Mac OS.
DevTeam created a Windows version of Redsn0w 0.9.8 b1 and iH8sn0w released Sn0wBreese 2.8 b1. Both perform a tethered jailbreak of iOS 5 beta 1 on iPhone 3GS/4, iPod Touch 3G/4G and iPad 1.
You still need activated UUID. Both tools do NOT hactivate devices.
You can download Redsn0w 0.9.8 b1 for Windows and Sn0wBreese 2.8 b1 .
MuscleNerd recently Tweeted that iOS 5 beta 1 jailbreak is already available. DevTeam released Redsn0w 0.9.8 b1.
For now the jailbreak is tethered (you have to run redsn0w each time you reboot) and available for Mac OS X only. It will not activate your device, so you need have registered UDID. iPhone 3GS users with 06.15 baseband: redsn0w will get you past the iTunes restore error. This redsn0w will probably work on future versions of iOS 5.
Redsn0w 0.9.8 b1 works with iOS 5 b1 on (GSM / CDMA), iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 3G, iPod Touch 4G, iPad 1.
This is mostely for developers of Cydia apps. Most tweaks and Cydia applications do not work on iOS 5.
You can download Redsn0w 0.9.8 b1 .
DevTeam released the untethered jailbreak for the latest iOS 4.3.3 – utilities RedSn0w 0.9.6 rc15 and PwnageTool 4.3.3.
The 4.3.3 untether works on all Apple devices that support 4.3.2 except for the iPad2:
Redsnow is easy to use, it is available for Windows and Mac OS. As usual for unlockers – do not update to 4.3.3, use PwnageTool (MAC) and Sn0wBreeze (Windows) to preserve the baseband.
You can download RedSn0w 0.9.6 rc15 .
You can download PwnageTool 4.3.3 .
Ultrasn0w was also updated to support old baseband on new iOS 4.3.3. Ultrasn0w 1.2.3 (for unlockers with old baseband) is available in Cydia.
New tutorials for iOS 4.3.3 are ready:
RedSn0w 0.9.6 rc16 (Windows)
RedSn0w 0.9.6 rc16 (Mac OS)
PwnageTool 4.3.3.1 (Mac OS)
Sn0wBreeze 2.7.3 (Windows)
DevTeam released the untethered jailbreak for the latest iOS 4.3.2 – RedSn0w 0.9.6 rc14.
The 4.3.1 untether works on all Apple devices that support 4.3.2 except for the iPad2:
Redsnow is easy to use, it is available for Windows and Mac OS. As usual for unlockers – do not updaate to 4.3.1, wait for PwnageTool and Sn0wBreeze.
You can download RedSn0w 0.9.6 rc14 .
New tutorials are on it’s way. For now you can still use our tutorials for iOS 4.3.1. Just download iOS 4.3.2 , update in iTunes, point redsn0w to it, everything else is the same:
DevTeam released a new version of RedSn0w 0.9.6 rc10. Short after that they released a fix for that – RedSn0w 0.9.6 rc11.
DevTeam have added boot animation logo, removed some unnecessary settings, and fixed some bugs.
Everything else is the same – untethered jailbreak for iOS 4.3.1 for all devices and both Windows and Mac OS X users.
You can download the latest RedSn0w .
Those running redsn0w may have noticed we enabled too many Settings options in some versions of the jailbreak (for instance, what you want your side switch to do, even if you have no side switch because you’re not using an iPad). Release rc10 of redsn0w corrects that (you can just run it over your existing jailbreak…be sure to de-select Cydia to avoid package conflicts).
Along the way, we’ve also added the option to enable boot animations…these animations can be installed via Cydia, but be sure to select which animation to use via the Settings->Bootlogo setting after you’ve downloaded an animation (and again, you can just run rc10 rc11 over your existing jailbreak…be sure to de-select Cydia to avoid package conflicts).
(The boot animation we tested against was “Android Boot Logo”. It correctly installs all the dependencies needed to run the animation at each boot).
redsn0w_0.9.6rc11: (rc11 makes the boot animation a bit more robust across all devices)
DevTeam released much anticipated untethered jailbreak for the latest iOS 4.3.1 – RedSn0w 0.9.6 rc9 and PwngeTool 4.3.
The 4.3.1 untether works on all Apple devices that support 4.3.1 except for the iPad2:
Redsnow is easy to use, it is available for Windows and Mac OS. Pwnagetool can be used to create custom ipsw and preserve baseband, it supports Mac OS only.
You can download RedSn0w 0.9.6 rc9 and PwnageTool 4.3 .
Here are our tutorials:
Ultrasn0w doesn’t work on iOS 4.3.1 yet (even with iOS 4.3.1 + old baseband). The fix will be available soon. Here’s a warning from DevTeam for unlockers:
ultrasn0w users don’t update yet! We need to first release an update to ultrasn0w that fixes some incompatibilities when FW 4.3.1 is used on the older basebands supported by ultrasn0w. And remember once we do fix ultrasn0w for 4.3.1 (we’ll announce it here and on twitter), you must only get there via a custom IPSW from PwnageTool, Sn0wbreeze or xpwn! Don’t ever try to restore or update to a stock IPSW, or you’ll lose the unlock!
