hi
this is Luke from GuideMyJailbreak.com and today I'm gonna be showing you how to
jailbreak your phone
iPad or iPod Touch with redsn0w so if you're not already on our website
go ahead and go to GuideMyJailbreak.com for a complete guide to jailbreaking
once you get there and you're watching this video you're ready to start jailbreaking
we're gonna show you how to do the Mac or PC. for Mac fans, Mac's up first. If you have a PC
go ahead and skip the Mac part to the PC part
your first step is download redsn0w for your Mac click on the link below and download redsn0w
Okay, great. so you downloaded redsn0w now it's time to open it
so go ahead and click on it
and then open the file
that you downloaded to, in my case I went to my downloads folder
go ahead and double click on it
double click on redsn0w
on Windows your first step is to
download redsnow. go ahead and click on redsn0w for Windows
click on open
double click on the folder and then double click on redsnow
click Run
click Run again
and now you're there
so now you'll see this window and it just says copyright information and then
to read all the accompanying text you can move that over for now
the next thing you'll need to do is download the firmware for your specific device
for example I'm using an iPod Touch 4G 4.3.3
but if you followed through with this guide from the beginning from GuideMyJailreak.com
then at the top of the screen it should say the firmware you have. so go ahead and click on
firmware download link and it will download to your computer
this will take some time so come back when it's done
hopefully that's downloaded to your computer now it's time to jailbreak
go ahead and open up that redsn0w application you open up earlier
click on browse and find that file
so for me i went to my home folder and then my downloads folder and then you need to
click on that file
and then click Open
so that will load into the application and then you need to click next
and then it will take a few seconds to load
your next step is to make sure that "Install Cydia" is checked whether you have an iPhone
or iPod Touch
or iPad those other checkboxes will be different but just make sure "install Cydia"
is checked
then you can click Next
this next part is where it gets a little bit tricky. your next step is to plug in your
device
and then turn it off completely. to do go ahead and just click and hold the sleep
button for about 5 seconds
slide to power off okay for this next part you may wanna watch
before you actually do it
what you'll need to do is immediately hold on the sleep button for 3 seconds
then while you're holding onto the sleep button hold on to the home button
for 10 seconds and then let go of the sleep button. after you do this, you're done
so go ahead and watch this before you do it and don't worry if you mess up the first
time
you can always try again
okay so while that jailbreaks, i'm just gonna speed it up so this is just jailbreaking your phone
movie applications, things like that
so just wait for that to finish that could take up to 5 minutes and when that's done,
watch the rest
okay so now that's finished
your device
should restart and you should see the Apple logo so wait for your device to boot up
you'll be ready to go. okay so once your device finishes rebooting
just slide to unlock and then you should try to find an app called "Cydia"
that's been added to your device. as you can see nothing's changed
just the new app called Cydia so congratulations on successfully
jailbreaking your device
if you're ready to embark on making your device so much better go ahead
click on the "Learn Cydia" button below. Thanks for watching.
