Tutorial to Jailbreak iPhone 3GS with iOS 4.2 using PwnageTool

Apple has offered the new OS ie iOS4.2 for iPhone and once you upgrade your device to this latest version, the phone would get locked again and you will have to perform the Jailbreaking procedure again. The Jailbreakme.com procedure which we mentioned previously is not compatible with this OS.

Before you start with this process you will have to make sure that you have the iPhone Firmware – iOS 4.2 Beta 1 available with you on your computer which is currently available under the Apple’s developer or enterprise program. Next Download Apple iTunes 10 and install it on your computer.

This Jailbreaking procedure will only work on Apple Mac based computers since the Pwnagetool is available in .dmg format only here. Make sure that the device was earlier jailbroken with other other tools.

Download the PwnageTool 4.01 along with the PwnageTool Bundle and save the same on your computer. Start installing the files after extraction which were downloaded and then launch the PwnageTool Bundle.
