Jail-break your itouch/iphone

For those who are not familiar with what Jail-breaking is, its a procedure of duplicating the itouch/iphone OS so that your itunes syncs apps that you have downloaded from anywhere other than the itunes store.

This Jailbreak is applicable only to the ipsw-4.2.1 version (the latest till date, so get your OS updated through itunes). Once downloaded you should be able to locate the ipsw in C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates\

Copy->paste the ipsw to an other location.

Now the first step -

* Keep your device connected.

* You will need a software called snowbreeze-2.2.1 which will duplicate your ipsw and adds a app called cydia which helps you sync your apps.

(snowbreeze-2.2.1 can be downloaded fromhttp://hotfile.com/dl/115082695/5a6d073/sn0wbreeze-v2.2.1.zip.html)

* Run snowbreeze -> click OK -> close credits -> click the blue icon to the right bottom and you should be in front of a window as below

* Now click browse -> select the copied ipsw -> click next -> once it identifies your ipsw click next again -> choose simple mode n click next again.

* Wait till the whole process finishes and follow the instructions.

*Now you have a ipsw created by snowbreeze. (will be placed on the desktop by default)

*Open itunes-> hold shift and click update/repair/recover -> select the ipsw that snowbreeze produced and let it complete recovering.

Now the second phase-

People with wifi just start the cyder app in your itouch. People without wifi follow the process below :

* You will have to download a software called cyder. (http://www.mediafire.com/?myzmjnog3cz)

* Put the software in a pen drive. (very important)

* Start cyder.exe. In the sources tab enter http://cydia.hackulo.us//Packages and click apply.

* Now go to the packages tab and choose AppSync for 4.0+ and Installous 4 and click the download selected option.

* Navigate your way to the Synchronization page and select which apps you want to install.

* Click the button that directs you to ‘Cydia Autoinstallation’. [NOTE: Sometimes you press click this, nothing happens. Just reconnect the cable into the iPod Touch and try again, rinse and repeat]
*  Click the button that syncs your apps from the PC/Mac to the iPod Touch.

* REBOOT your iPod Touch.

* Respring your iPod Touch.

* There you go!!!!
