Since Cydia is broken on iOS 4.2.x, the new Redsn0w 0.9.6b3 released today supports iOS 4.2.1 so that developers can make their jailbreak-apps compatible before Apple releases the final firmware to public. Using this version of Redsn0w, you can now install jailbreak-apps without using 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.
Ever since the open source drivers were released for the Xbox 360 Kinect, there has been a surge in hackers using it for a whole range of different applications. The potential of the impressive hardware was seen by Chris Rojas who created a new processing app which takes the distance data and renders objects in neon cubes, where the size of the cube is based on the object's distance from the sensor.
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.

Could it be possible one day that we can play iPhone / iPod touch / iPad games on our TV? While the idea is pointless, considering how all it you’re really going to be playing relatively archaic casual games on an expensive set up, it is expected to become a reality real soon.
Sn0wbreeze 2.1 for iOS 4.1 / 3.2.2 is now available for download. If any of the existing iOS 4.1 jailbreak tools didn’t work for you, you can give Sn0wbreeze 2.1 a try! For those of you who don’t know, like PwnageTool for Mac, Sn0wbreeze for Windows can be used to create custom firmware files for iOS 4.1 without the upgraded baseband so that you can unlock iOS 4.1 (05.13.04 baseband) with existing version of Ultrasn0w.
Yes you read that right! If the video embedded below is anything to go by, running Android on iPad will soon become a reality.
