Redsn0w-mac0.7.zip » 13 MB redsn0w is a easy to use, multi-platform, multi-device jailbreaking and unlocking tool for the iPhone 2G (original iPhone), the iPhone 3G (but not the 3GS) and also the iPod touch (1st generation and second generation). This is the Mac OS X version that supports the 3.0 firmware from Apple. DO NOT USE REDSN0W. That’s because to use redsn0w at 4.1, you need to already have updated to official 4.1 from Apple. If you do that, you lose the ultrasn0w unlock (possibly forever). The Windows version needs further testing, so for now this is available only for Mac OS X x86. The Windows version will come as soon as the bugs are ironed out.

Redsn0w for mac os x 10.8

Redsnow is an untethered and tethered Jailbreak tool to install Cydia developed by iPhone Dev-Team. QuickPwn was the first name of this. Redsn0w is not only a jailbreak tool. It worked as an unlocker, Rebooter, IPSW detector & recovery mode fixer too.

However, this tool is not alive now. Developer iPhone Dev-Team has stopped releasing updates after following versions. On the other hand, they gave up this tool once Apple introduced the 64-bit devices.

Specialty of Redsn0w

  • It worked for both Windows and Mac surfaces, when compared with same era releases just like Sn0wbreeze & other tools.

  • Except for the Jailbreak process, it has many options under the Extras tab, which users need to maintain the device. Here are some of them.
  • Under the Preferences option it has ECIDs, Boot Args, Boot logos.

Redsn0w Options

Redsn0w is a little bit different jailbreak tool than other tools. Other than the installing Cydia, Redsn0w offers many extra features such as enable multitasking, enable wallpapers, enable battery percentage and more. Use the following screenshot to get more redsn0w options.

Ultrasn0w

Ultrasn0w was an iPhone unlock app, which was made by the iPhone Dev team. It needs a jailbroken iDevice to use this unlocker. It was possible to unlock your iPhone 4 or iPhone 3GS running iOS 5.1.1 firmware using UltraSn0w 1.2.7.

Redsn0w For Mac Os X 10.10


UltraSn0w Supported Baseband Versions:

iPhone 4: 1.59.00 (GSM only)

iPhone 3GS: 4.26.08, 5.11.07, 5.12.01, 5.13.04, and 6.15.00 (special iPad baseband)

iPhone 3G: 4.26.08, 5.11.07, 5.12.01, 5.13.04, and 6.15.00 (special iPad baseband)

However Ultrasn0w support stopped after iOS 5.1.1. Therefore it has no Ultrasn0w version for the latest Apple iOS version jailbreaks. Repo666.ultrasn0w.com repo is also not working now.

Pwnage Tool

Redsn0w For Mac Os X64

Pwnage tool is another jailbreak method developed by the iPhone Dev Team just like Redsn0w.

Pwnage jailbreak releases for iOS 5.1.1 running iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. PwnageTool 5.1.1 is available for Mac OS X users only. PwnageTool creates custom iOS firmware(IPSW) to user-defined specifications just like snowbreeze.

PwnageTool also avoids sync issues, but again it applies only to A4+earlier devices. If you unlock your iPhone with ultrasn0w or a commercial method, you must use PwnageTool to avoid updating your baseband otherwise you’ll lose the unlock.
Device Compatibility:

iPhone 3G

iPod touch (2nd generation)

iPhone 4 (iPhone3,1)

iPod touch (3rd generation)

iPod touch (4th generation)

iPad

Apple TV (2nd generation)

Now it has completely stopped releasing Pwnage Tool versions.

Those who are using iPhone 3G, iPhone 3G S, iPod Touch 2G on iOS 4.2.1 already have a fully working untethered jailbreak with Redsn0w 0.9.6b6. As you might know, an untethered jailbreak let you restart your device to jailbreak mode, without the need of connecting the device to a computer. Redsn0w 0.9. 7b1 download released today is intended for Mac users who are interested in helping the dev team in testing the jailbreak for any bugs.

These are the requirements for running Redsn0w 0.9.7b1.
