14 DAY TRIAL // The famous iPhone Dev Team has updated its blog with a notice saying that, “Snow Leopard [...] poses no new wrinkles for the redsn0w jailbreak or ultrsn0w unlock.” Softpedia doesn’t condone jailbreaking.
Basically, what the Team is saying is that redsn0w can now be used by iPhone or iPod touch users to jailbreak. “To summarize the status of our tools [...] You can use redsn0w to jailbreak any iPhone or iPod Touch using OS X, Windows, or Linux,” the iPhone Dev Team says.
“For both 3.0 and 3.0.1 firmwares, you should point redsn0w at the 3.0 IPSW. If you see it hang at ‘waiting for reboot,’ just unplug and replug that USB cable,” the team explains.
iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS users can use ultrasn0w to unlock their device. BootNeuter can be used by those who wish to unlock an iPhone 2G device.
“Both ultrasns0w and BootNeuter are available via Cydia,” the Dev Team also confirms. “You can use PwnageTool for Mac to create custom IPSWs with pre-installed packages,” the post reads. The hackers also point readers to detailed guides on how to run these tools. “For specific help on any problems, feel free to use our comment system,” the Team points out. “We’re glad to see Apple joining in on the ‘snow’ theme. If only Apple had called their new OS ‘Sn0w Leopard!’” the iPhone Dev Team jokes.
