iOS 6 now Jailbroken for A4 iDevices only

And Steve Jobs looked down from Apple-heaven saying, “this is good”. We think that if Jobs was still around, he’d be happy with people such as Redsn0w who’ve now successfully managed to Jailbreak iOS 6 for A4 devices. That includes the iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 and older iPad. Why happy? Because jailbreaking an iDevice opens it up to endless customisation options. And we think that wherever Jobs is now, he’d be at peace with that. Enough rambling, onto the details:

The details

Actually, the details are fairly basic so we’re just going to link straight to it. It involves the standard tethered Redsn0w jailbreaking process, and a manual installation of Cydia. If you’re up to that task, it involves terminal commands and a Mac. Get cracking people and remember, the process only works on A4 iDevices so jailbreak at your own risk. It’s a chase, a constant battle between Apple and the hackers. Weeks before a new iOS lands, hackers would have already begun work on the dev version of Apples mobile operating system. It’s never going to end, and there’ll never be a winner. Best thing to do is to sit back and enjoy the fruits of Redsn0w’s labour.
