Greenpois0n Released

Chronic Dev Team have released Greenpois0n RC1 today. Instead of utilizing the SHAtter bootrom exploit; it now uses the exploit found in Limera1n.

From what I've seen it looks pretty similar to Limera1n but as I've heard it's a lot less bug-ridden. I would recommend you to use this to jailbreak your iDevice. Tutorial coming soon.

Sorry to Mac users. This is for WINDOWS ONLY.

Limera1n RC1 released

Geohot has just announced that limera1n is out of beta and limera1n RC1b is available for download.

If you had problems jailbreak your iPhone 3GS/4, iPad and iPod touch G3/G4 using limera1n then try it again using the latest version of limera1n as many readers have reported that the new version has fixed the problems they were facing with the previous version (especially iPad users).

limera1n website briefly provided details of the improvements in the new version:

RC1: afc2 support, reliability improvements, no reboot for Cydia, 2kb smaller

RC1b: addresses an install issue, mainly with iPads

afc2 support is necessary for tools like iPhone Browser, DiskAid etc to access the file system and allow the transfer of files such as Winterboard  themes, NES ROMs, etc  to the iPhone.

Meanwhile, iPhone Dev Team has advised jailbreakers to take a backup of the SHSH blobs for iOS 4.1:

Because the “untethered” part of this jailbreak comes from a userland hack from @comex, you should still backup your SHSH hashes for 4.1.  Do this by either letting Cydia keep them (“make my life easier”), or using Tiny Umbrella.   This way you can always come back to an untethered, jailbreakable 4.1 on your devices after Apple has closed their 4.1 signing window (they’ll close the 4.1 window once they push out their next firmware version). If you fail to do this and ever need to restore to 4.1 again, you can still jailbreak but it will be a tethered JB (you’ll need to connect to your computer to finish the booting process, each and every time).

The simplest way to achieve this is to launch Cydia after jailbreaking your iDevice. It should automatically take a backup of the SHSH blobs.

HOW TO: Jailbreak iPhone 3GS/4 iPod touch G3/G4 and iPad with Limera1n (Windows)

For people having trouble with jailbreaking the iDevice. Here is a helping guide.
THIS IS CURRENTLY WINDOWS ONLY

1. You will need the latest version of Limera1n if you don't have it already. Click here for download.

2. Connect your iPod/iPhone/iPad to your PC

3. Run limera1n.exe

4. Click on the"Make it ra1n" button. (Do NOT unplug your iDevice after this point, doing so will for you to restore)

5. Follow the instructions that follow on Limera1n.exe (This will put you into DFU mode, allowing the jailbreak to occur)

6. Once it says done you may unplug your iDevice

7. Now on your iPod you must find the app named Limera1n (it may have a no icon) and run it

8. Download and install Cydia through Limera1n

9. If it doesn't appear after it says it has, reboot your iDevice

10. You may uninstall Limera1n if you wish, through the Limera1n app

11. Tah-dah! You now have an untethered pwned4life iDevice!

iPod Touch/iPhone jailbreaks

As many avid iPhone and iPod Touch hackers have heard about Greenpo1son, from Chronic Dev, a bootrom (best possible break) jailbreak. Now there is a new contender. Limera1n, from Geohotz, the guy who made Blackra1n. Greenpo1son is an untethered jailbreak for all A4 chip devices. Limera1n is untethered for all iOS4.1 devices.

Shite! As I was writing this Limera1n was released! Its been taken down now. I assume for geo to talk to Chronic Dev Team

EDIT: Here's a mirror, UNKNOWN I haven't checked it so run for viruses.
And here's my own SAFE

EDIT2: Limera1n is available for download on the site. There will be a huge surge of traffic so mirrors are essential.

KNOWN BUGS
3GS new bootrom is broken, fix pending
some people need to restart to get the Cydia icon to show up after installing
some people still don't have windows
