    What you need to do is put your ipod in dfu mode, open redsn0w, and click "Extras". Then click "Select IPSW". (On Windows 7) Select your ipod restore data from: C:/Users/(your username)/AppData/Roaming/Apple Computer/iTunes/iPod Software Updates. If you are running ios 5.1 it should be called Ipod4,1_5.1_*****_Restore.

    Unlocked iphone 4 with ios5.0 using redsnow. Then unlocked using SAM. All was well till i downloaded some cydia apps. Then after a tethered reboot, phone restarted in safe mode and so i deleted all the cydia apps i had downloaded.However, the cydia icon disappeared and phone remains in safe mode despite rebooting via tethered redsnow.Can someone advise what to do?Tks

    I accidentally installed ios 5.1 over ios 4 on my iphone 4. Now when I try to jailbreak using redsnow it is not able to unlock the phone. It gives me "No service" error. How do I actually unlock the iphone 4 with ios 5.1 on it. I could not retain the baseband either. So it changed to 4.12.01. Now I know how to do this upgrade by retaining the baseband but its too late for my case. Any suggestions?

    I jailbroke a 3g last year with no problems, and tonight tried to jailbreak a 3gs. Everything went fine, but when I tap on the Cyndia icon, it spends a ton of time "loading" and then times out. This happens with any app I try to access. Any ideas?

    You have to start the iphone 4 using the cydia application. You need to open cydia, use extras, and reboot. IT worked for me.

    I'm having a problem with my jailbreak for my itouch 4g. I can get it t to jailbreak properly with the 5.1 iOS with .9.10b8b redsn0w and got it to work for my uncles iphone 4 and my bro's ipad, but for some reason after jailbreaking my itouch i can't reboot it tethered. Clicking "Just reboot" on redsnow goes smoothly right until it needs to reboot. Instead of booting up with pineapple it boots with apple then precedes to go straight into recovery/restore mode. I know i'm putting it in DFU mode correctly, otherwise the reboot wouldn't even start on redsn0w. I've also tried the hard dfu mode and reg dfu mode, both give same results and i JUST did it for my uncle again and had no problem with his phone.

    I jailbroke my iPhone 3gs, (ios 5.01) used Ultrasn0w to unlock it but the Carrier name remains the same I am in Canada and the Carrier still shows "Rogers 11.0" is this correct or was the unlock not successful, does anyone know the answer I have invested way to many hours already trying to get this to go. Thank you in advance!
