iPhone Dev Team Releases redsn0w for iPhone, iPhone 3G, and iPod Touch
As expected, the iPhone Dev Team has released the redsn0w jailbreak tool for the first generation iPhone and iPhone 3G/iPod Touch via PwnageTool 3.0 for Mac OS X.
Now for the caveats:
1. redsn0w will only jailbreak and unlock the first-generation iPhone, with the ultrasn0w 3G unlock tool for iPhone 3G not being included in this release.
2. iPhone 3G users that have jailbroken and unlocked using yellowsn0w should avoid redsn0w as the baseband in 3.0 is incompatible and will be relocked to the original carrier.
3. redsn0w WILL work for the first-generation iPhone and iPod touch, second-generation iPod touch and the iPhone 3G.
4. Unlock/jailbreak tools for the iPhone 3G S and Windows unlock/jaibreak tools are not available in this release and are forthcoming. PwnageTool will not function with the second generation iPod touch running 3.0 with redsn0w recommended.

If you want an unlocked iPhone 3G: Wait for ultrasn0w.
If you want a jailbroken iPhone 3G: Use either PwnageTool or redsn0w.
If you want an unlocked original iPhone: Use PwnageTool.
If you want a jailbroken original iPhone: Use either PwnageTool or redsn0w.
If you want a jailbroken iPod touch 2G: Use redsn0w.
If you want a jailbroken iPod touch 1G: Use either redsn0w or PwnageTool.
If you want an unlocked iPhone 3G S: No solution exists yet.
If you want a jailbroken iPhone 3G S: No solution exists yet.
OMG, I tried to upgrade my unlock Iphone( yellowsn0w) g3 to the new frimwork…..now it not finish the apdate of the new software and ask for the original SIM!!!! what can I do???????? HELPPPPP
Shlomi – You need to use an activated version of the 3.0 firmware (pre-hacked) then jailbreak and then unlock with the new solution.
Good luck!
Thanks,
The problem is: I can not complet the instulation of the 3.0 firmwork it keep asking for the original SIM wich I don’t have…..
Thanks Chris, I’ll be waiting for UltrasnOw
Shlomi, you weren’t supposed to upgrade yet. The replacement for yellowsn0w, ultrasn0w, has not been released yet. You have to either wait for ultrasn0w to come out, or try to downgrade to 2.2.1 (which we have not tested)… and the reinstall yellowsn0w.
Thanks
