Redsn0w To Jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 For iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch Released (geohot, unlock, Apple, Auckland, 0212640000)

iPhone Dev Team has released a new version of Redsn0w to jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 for iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, iPod Touch 4G, iPod Touch 3G, iPad and Apple TV 2G.  http://tiny.cc/redsn0w


Redsn0w 0.9.6b4 makes use of Geohot’s USB bootrom exploit used in limera1n for iOS 4.1.

Redsn0w 0.9.6b4 is available for both Mac and Windows users.


As Dev team had explained in the update yesterday there is good news if you are an iPhone 3G, older iPhone 3GS, and non-MC iPod touch 2G user and some bad news for users who own an iPhone 3GS (new bootrom), iPhone 4, iPad, iPod touch 2G (MC Model), iPod touch 3G and the iPod touch 4G.


iPhone 3G, older iPhone 3GS, and non-MC iPod touch 2G users will be able to enjoy the benefit of an untethered iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak using Redsn0w.


Unfortunately, iPhone 3GS (new bootrom), iPhone 4, iPad, iPod touch 2G (MC Model), iPod touch 3G and the iPod touch 4G users will have to manage with a tethered iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak using Redsn0w. As Dev team had explained yesterday:


A tethered jailbreak means that each time your device loses battery power or needs to be rebooted, you must attach it to a PC or Mac to boot into the jailbroken state.


Comex is working hard to bring a untethered iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak for users with newer devices so we’ll let you know if we have any further updates.


Redsn0w will NOT hactivate or unlock your iPhone. So if you want to unlock your iPhone and currently have iOS 4.1 or lower running on your iPhone then please wait for Dev team to release PwnageTool for iOS 4.2.1 as it preserves the baseband from getting upgraded so that you can use Ultrasn0w to software unlock your iPhone. Dev team is also expected to release a new version of Ultrasn0w shortly for iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G users. They have mentioned that the unlock for iPhone 4 users will need more effort and are not in a position to provide any further information currently.


Please remember that jailbreaking your iPhone may void its warranty so proceed with caution.


You can download Redsn0w using the download link provided by Dev team at the bottom of their post.


Please don’t forget to let us know how it goes.  

HTC 1 can really make Apple iPhone 4 look ugly! (tech, news, report, leaked, pictures, Auckland, "Abby Technology")

HTC 1 Future Phone: Specs and Release Date Unknown

|HTC has been known for releasing beautifully designed phones. With this, another fabulous designed mobile phone is set to fascinate us in the future. It is HTC 1 as designed by the great designer who conceptualized the said design especially for HTC named Andrew Kim. The HTC 1 looks so simple but stylish. You will surely love its elegant design which is built with silver-plated brass body and comes with a built-in UV light which can kill germs on its surface as you charge your phone.

Known as HTC 1, the phone was built on the concept of having a single user, who is recruited for a cleaner and a more high- end approach. Looking beyond HTC 1, it seems that the design is very minimalist and that Andrew Kim has removed unnecessary design elements and made even simpler.

Andrew Kim also took time to make some improvement in its Sense UI. He took effort refining the existing widgetmania to a much simple set of icons and notifications. It has the news widget which provides quick access to your news sources and social widget which brings you the latest updates from your social networks like Twitter, Facebook and Flickr.

Ideally the HTC 1 is rumored to come up with a slightly curved touchscreen surface. It makes us think how this unique design will affect its users. The phone seems to be thick which provides ample space for a nice camera.

The HTC 1 is supposed to come with dual speakers located independently for a better experience together with a kickstand making it an ideal media device. With the kickstand, you can stand it upright as well as sideways. It has also a modern alarm clock on it. So with the stand and the alarm clock combine, you can simply transform your phone into an alarm clock.

The HTC 1 is also designed with the idea of creating a harmonized environment between its hardware and software design which is not currently present on most smartphones. And with its silver-plated body one can be assured that it is durable, smooth and has the ability to lasts for a long time.

The HTC 1 is also equipped with an integrated messaging feature that brings SMS, MSN, Facebook and other messaging sources into a single stream which makes messaging easier for its users.

With these features included in HTC 1 and its very elegant yet simple design accompanied by a high qualityperformance, it looks that the HTC 1 is something to watch out for. Release date has not yet been announced but expected to be around early next year in time to compete with the iPhone 4G.
