For starters: “the 4.2.x jailbreak is not yet untethered for most devices!” However, “it’s very important that you get the file permissions and ownerships right in your custom redsn0w bundles,” the Dev Team warns.įinally, it reveals that “redsn0w has also been updated to recognize the 4.2.1GM IPSWs.”Ī bunch of warning signs are also pinned around the iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak using redsn0w 0.9.6 beta 3. In fact, the Team notes, “the bundle can actually be Cydia if you’ve compiled it on your own.” The hackers confirm that redsn0w will now let users install their own custom bundles independent of Cydia. “As noted above, the public version of Cydia (and MobileSubstrate too!) is not 4.2.1-compatible.” “We’ve made some updates to redsn0w to make it easier for jailbreak developers (and tinkerers) to get their programs ready for 4.2.1,” the Team writes. The edited report includes a warning for iOS device owners which goes “if you use the ultrasn0w unlock, please read no further…this doesn’t apply to you yet!” The Dev Team is currently at its third update to the original “redsn0w+limera1n fun” blog post. According to the hackers, only the iPhone 3G, non-MC iPod touch 2G devices, and old-bootrom iPhone 3GS units are supported for the untethered jailbreak.
