iPhone 4.2.1 Jailbreak Released

[CSP]

Been waiting for this for a while...

New Greenpois0n

I can confirm it works perfectly - it's EXTREMELY simple to do. Just make sure on Windows 7 you run Greenpois0n in XP compatibility mode.

Cheers!

My other half will thank you for this link. Looks like this version isn't tethered to PC whenever it reboots, which is the reason she gave up on jailbreaking it last time.

Doesn't work with older 3G phones for those who are interested. For those you can use redsn0w which is untethered as well.

Lol, that's the trouble with iPhone. So much easier upgrading, rooting and restoring on Android

Errrrr... Did you seriously just say that?

Watch this video and see if you still agree with that.

Link fixed.... My bad.

Yeah looks easy enough to jailbreak, except when you have un-jailbroken reverted back to stock and can't save any of the jailbreak customisations easily.... setting up each and every one is a PITA. Android is just a case of using titanium backup, hit restore after a new ROM is loaded and all done

The apple firmware upgrades and re-jailbreaking with iPhones just makes it so hard to keep up with the updates

Yeh still cant cbf upgrading lol.
And it takes ahwile for all the jailbroken apps to get updated
