It looks like The iPhone Dev Team has just released (at 3:52a.m.) a iOS 5 beta 1 compatible version of redsn0w for the following devices:
* iPhone 4
* iPhone 3G S
*iPad (1st generation)
* iPod touch 4th gen
* iPod touch 3rd gen
Now, as I said before, this is a tethered jailbreak so if you need to reboot, you have to connect it to your Mac and run the reboot sequence within redsn0w.
Also, this is Mac only (for now)! MuscleNerd says that they will bring out a Windows version soon.
I, for one, am jailbreaking in order to merge my music & videos icons once more, it is VERY annoying having them be separate. Also, I want to dig into the OS and hopefully find some intriguing things…
Again, DO NOT use this for piracy reasons, we can not stress that enough.
Incoming search terms:
- installous iOS5
Are most Cydia apps compatible?
MuscleNerd says that mobilesubstrate extensions are iffy. Actual applications work just fine.
Have you tested yet?
I will tonight and report back
Is installous compatible lol?!
Can’t comment on that. Sorry.
Yep. Sorry, just waking up. Went to sleep at 4am
Yes I have. I jailbroke as I was writing this article 🙂
