this looks like quite the daunting task.... :erm:

http://thebigboss.org/guides/jailbreak-with-redsn0w

im a bit confused with this part...

Downloads:
Redsn0w is specific to your firmware. The latest version does not jailbreak all firmware versions. Please download the tool version below based on your firmware or your operating system (MAC vs Windows).

Redsn0w v0.8 (firmware 3.0 & 3.0.1) MAC Windows
Redsn0w v0.9.4 (3.1.2, 3.1.3) MAC Windows
Redsn0w v0.9.5b5-3 (4.0 only iPhone 3g) MAC Windows
Redsn0w v0.9.6b1 (4.1 only iPhone 3g) MAC Windows
v0.9.6.b4 (4.2.1, all devices) MAC & Windows
NEW –> v0.9.6.rc9 MAC & Windows

what is the difference between the last two?? It just says NEW :confused:

Not.. Once you upgrade, the jailbreak is removed as you said, and any jailbroken apps, including any "non-purchased" iTunes apps will get removed as far as i know.. In order for the non-purchased iTunes apps to sync to the device it needs to be jailbroken, and AppSync installed. So once you upgrade, AppSync is no longer installed

100% correct.
 
Hi guys, I get the dreaded "redsnow.exe has stopped working" error while to trying to JB 4.3.1

I'm running Vista SP2

I googled it and tried to run redsnow in Vista SP2 compatibility mode, disabled firewall, AV etc....no luck.


I'm yet to try it out on another PC.

Any other suggestions, help?

Thnx

Weird.. some things to try

1) Try download again, from the official page.

2) If that still gives you problems, create a new user account for your Windows and try it on that account.

3) ask in the iPhoneZA forums @ http://iphoneza.co.za/forums (in my sig) ;)
 
I see that maximus does not use paypal anymore for Itunes gift cards, do people still use them for US cards?
 
Hi,

I have just upgraded to 4.3.1 on my iPhone 4 16GB and jailbroken with redsn0w as per fxit_man's sweet website.

However, now my push notifications don't seem to be working properly. I receive none from Facebook and only receive from Whatsapp when I have just left the app and it is still connected. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm gonna try a restore this evening and hopefully it will sort it out. Just wanted to check if anyone else had experienced something similar?

Great stuff! Glad to hear my site was of assistance!

Check out the forums section of my site as well to post any problems you may be experiencing such as this! http://iphoneza.co.za/forums

Some troubleshooting:
Check that in Settings, Mail, Fetch New Data, Push is ON

Check under Settings, Notifications, that the notifications are enabled for the app that you wish to enable push for.

If no luck, try Reset All Settings - Settings, General, Reset, Reset all settings

As a last resort, you can try restoring.
 
Hey,

Does anyone know if there is a way to download the different Hipstamatic packs for free on a jailbroken device? I updated mine to a new version and now I hardly have any lenses and films..

Shot,
Patrick

Yeah.. Well were you jailbroken on a previous firmware version? Chances are you will have SHSH blobs saved for that firmware version if you were, and you can restore back to that version if so!

All depends on whether you pressed the "make my life easier" button in Cydia when you first jailbroke.
