The well known iPhone developer and hacker Joshua Hill of the Chronic Dev Team has provided an ETA for the arrival of updated GreenPois0n jailbreak tool for the newly released iOS 4.2.1 firmware. For those of you who don’t know, GreenPois0n is based on Geohot’s Limera1n bootrom exploit which has already pwned all current iOS devices for life. The only problem is that it is a tethered jailbreak, which means you will have to boot it into a “jailbroken state” using a tool like Redsn0w on every reboot.
Apart from iOS 4.2.1 for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, also released today is iOS 4.2 for Apple TV 2G which brings video AirPlay feature that will allow you to stream pictures, videos and music right from your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to TVs connected to the second-gen Apple TV.
Apple has just released the very final version of iOS 4.2.1 for iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, iPad and iPod touches.

Well, well, well, what do we have here? Playboy has re-released Steve Jobs interview which he gave to the popular American men’s magazine back in 1985, just before he was fired by CEO of Apple John Sculley.
The recently released Redsn0w 0.9.6b3 can jailbreak all iOS based devices including the new A4 devices like iPhone 4, iPad and iPod touch 4G. Since Cydia included in this version of Redsn0w is not compatible with iOS 4.2.1, you can use the following steps to install a patched version of Cydia.
The iPhone Dev Team has just released Redsn0w 0.9.6b3 which brings support for iOS 4.2.1 GM firmware file. The highlight feature of this release is SSH and SSL support which will now allow you to install bundles and packages independent of Cydia, which is currently broken on 4.2.1.
PwnageTool bundle for iPod touch 4G on iOS 4.2.1 GM has just been released. You can use this bundle with existing version of PwnageTool to create custom firmware file which is jailbroken on the newly released iOS 4.2.1.
iOS 4.2.1 was released yesterday for iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G, iPod touch 4G, 3G, 2G and iPad. Even though iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak is possible via Redsn0w 0.9.6b2, but Cydia is still broken which makes the jailbreak pointless for many. It also contains new baseband for all iOS devices which currently makes it impossible to unlock using existing version of Ultrasn0w. So if you upgraded to iOS 4.2.1 and now want to downgrade back to iOS 4.1 / 4.0.2 / 4.0.1, follow the instructions posted below to downgrade iOS 4.2 on iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G, iPod touch and iPad to iOS 4.1 / 4.0.x.
Apple today has released iOS 4.2.1 GM for iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G, iPad and iPod touches. This build which is currently available to developers only can be jailbroken using the current version 0.9.6b2 of Redsn0w. For those of you who don’t know, Redsn0w 0.9.6b2 is based on Geohot’s Limera1n exploit which can pwn all iOS devices for life.
