i can’t wait…
It looks like the link for Mac on the greenpois0n webpage doesn’t work.
When I press on “Mac” nothing happens. (When I press on Windows it works.)
tried it on my mac with safari, firefox and google chrome
I’m sorry I have seen the note “update1″ by now.
Sorry
So does this have the unlock included?
THanks
what about unlock ? Does anybody checked it?
There is no unlock
Do we have to update our Iphones to 4.1 first.
And also, my iphone4 is currently JB at 4.0. If it’s previously jailbroken, do I need certain other techniques to jb?
thanks in advance.
wait a min , i cant jailbreak it , its comnig try again , am i missing on the timer thing …
do you have latest iTunes installed?
I can’t seems to JB it. It says jB complete but i seeing no apps of GP on my phone. It ask to connect to itunes and what must i do as i have connect it and says in recovery mode.
no success here either …
Same here, after jailbreak there is no greenpois0n or Cydia app, is it dangerous to use limeran after I have used greenpois0n ?
I have the same problem too. what was happening I try both JB both say I have JB done but dont have no cydia app
did you try restarting ur device ?
You have to locate the Limera1n or Greenpois0n icon. From within the app, click install Cydia, then you are done!
Thx.
limera1n jailbreak was better than this :X
Yeah. I have successfully install limera1n and it works after many times of unsuccessful install of GP. Does it makes any difference between GP or Limer1n?
Limera1n doesn’t block Installous. And what I have understand is, that GP wont support it.
what does installous exactly do ? >it’s blank page for me i can’t go past it, and when i [put the website in setting it’s stuck at a servy page
if u use limerain, when u shut off ur device, u cant turn it back on, thats wat happen to my 2 friends
yeah, got limera1n installed at first go, then ultrasnow, and everything works perfect, havent seen any bugs with it… dont know why so many ppl cant install limera1n.
Ultrasn0w is not supported on Limera1n with the 4.1 baseband update…
don’t update your firmware , there is a link to update to 4.1 without updating the firmware , you can use that
and then use ultrasn0w to unlock it
Is the unlock included.
no , this is only JB , but after that follow the steps to unlock your device , using ultrasn0w, but you have to jaiolbreak your iphone first
Any news on the unlock???…. Is it included???
How can you install cydia?
Is there any news for Basebands 02.10.04 sim unlock ?
And what about the GeoHot ???
Need more information please.
I have success in limera1n, but what’s the different in using GP JB and limera1n JB… does anyone knows? I haven’t try GP… since I see that even owner of this blog also had some problem…
yes Bad Blogger , im having an older ipod touch …. it wont work with it , just the new generation iphone 4 …
you see, since I JB my phone with limera1n, I love it man, so much think that was previously impossible seems to be all possible now, thanks to you for recommending me JB… well, I was wondering if you can post the best apps in cydia for iphone 4…
yup , lets first get over with the jailbreak issues these guys are having …. i am planning a section dedicated to Cydia apps only ….
Thanks for your comment
Is it possible to JB with limera1n after trying to JB with Greepoison?
Of course, if you couldn’t jailbreak it one way , you can always try the other
cant get working:( im dissapointed in dev-team what happend?!
ill use limera1n.com insted!
sombody can tel me its come with unlock or not please respond
NO , you JB it first , then follow the steps to unlock ur iphone using ultrasn0w , same question same answer ….
its not unlockwith u have to add a source on cydia.. but apple ruind the unlock for some people if ua llready updated from 4.0.1 without knowing how to prevent them from changing your modemfirmware we have to w8 for some1 to release unlock for the new modemfirmware thats just how it is apple found a way to prevent unlocking.
PEOPLE IT DOES NOT COME WITH THE UNLOCK! KEEP USING LIMERAIN TILL FURTHER NOTICE ON THE GP JAILBREAK…IT SEEMS TO BE TECHNICALLY BUGGY AT THE MOMENT…..
So what is the advantage to using this JB over the one GeoHot released? If I have no problems with my jailbroken iphone is there any reason to restore the phone and re-jailbreak it?
NOPe the only difference is how they went about to jailbreak it. “aint no use fixing it, if it aint broken”
i want to ask about the sim unlock for iphone 4 iOS 4.1 basebands 02.10.04 ?????????????????
For iOS 4.1 if you have the new firmware 02.10.04 that comes with the 4.1 there is not unlock at this time.
For all of you who keep asking OVER and OVER about the unlocking Please do some reading first instead of asking this question all the time. If you take some time to read and do some some research you would have your answer already instead of waiting for someone to answer you.
Regards,
James
thanks for your comments James, but they still wont stop asking …
… coz its not few , there are thousands …
YES READ PEOPLE! ITS ALWAYS THE SAME QUESTION, OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER & OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ James i have read that they will release a limesn)w to unlock the baseband 02.10.04 ,,, so i asked about it ,, when it would be released ???
Hi friends I have an iphone 3G from at&t USA and unfortunately I have upgraded to Os 4.1 today and I dont have a at&t sim to unbrick it as well i want to jailbreak it today can i do it with an indian sim i have tried limera1n and it gets stuck on dfu mode wait for ages tried greenpoison and it does not detect the dfu mode no matter what please I would be travelling tomo friends please help me what to do !!!!!!!!!!!!
No. You need an origal att sim since the phone is still locked…just borrow someones sim it only takes a minute!
As far as I know, you don’t need an original sim card, cuz I have heard that since this JB is in the boot level, hacktivates the iphone which means there is no need of a sim card!
its not working its crap use geohot limera1n and wait for limeraSn0w shoot come soon i try and dosnt work and i need use limera1n and work ok
wielbark,
have some respect for those guys, their JB may have bugs or something does make it crap, you should be happy that there is a JB to use.
All this is FREE people stop complain. If one doesn’t work use the other one and stop your Bitc*ing
have you installed the latest version of itunes?
are you on ios 4.1?
sources:
http://www.iphone4jailbreak.org/greenpoison-not-working.html
It does not work. It shows jailbreak complete with a quit button. After I click Quit button, the greenPoison app close off, but my phone still in recovery mode. After I start my itunes, the phone is back, but no Cydia at all. Sucks.
did you try restarting ur iphone ?
i have lot of respect but now i just say the tru ok for all you ga** use jailbreak the geohot is more safty then greenpos0n o wait to be fix all bugs
GreenPois0n website down? I clicked the Windows button and all I got was “greenpois0n – Mmmm…pois0n”
Same goes for the Mac button, the Donations link works though … :-p
whats new in rc3?
Finally! The moment of truth! It’s hereeeeeeeee at lastttt
Any successful JB at all for the iPhone 4?
yes , its works great with iphone 4
Sorry for the noob questions….I have an iPhone 4, 4.0.1….old baseband and currently JB with JBme.com. Do I need to restore before I use GP? Do I need to upgrade to 4.1 (via TinyUmbrella method) before using GP?
Thanks.
Stick with what you have for now until you can clearly see that GP is working 100% believe me you will be happier by leaving it just like that for now!
Yes… to everything….
But I will use Limera1n in stead.
hi m8.
GP and Limera1n are both for 4.1
Remember to upgrade using Tinyumbrella to preserve your BB. and then JB with which ever you prefer.
I have done my Iphone4 which is 4.1 with 1.59.00 BB with Limera1n but its untested…..
stay on 4.0.1 I’d
till everything is 100% working with both JB, so far alot of people are reporting problems with Limera1n , i donno about GP
I used Limera1n and i am fine , but if your Iphone is already JB/unlocked on 4.0.1 , stay as you are
It’s good
Can you delete Limera1n and then put GP on?
yes..u need to restore ur phone using itunes first..
why ?
i have a new never before jailbroken/unlocked phone from softbank in japan. it came with iOS 4.0.2, which i haven’t changed. can i upgrade to 4.1 through itunes, since this is the first time i am jailbreaking or should i follow the upgrade tutorial?
thanks.
follow the upgrade tutorial using TinyUmbrella …. save your baseband and then jailbreak …. though you may not need the unlock , still if you cahnge your mind later , you can then use the unlock tool to carrire unlock your device and use another provider of your choice … proceed with the greenpoison
jailbreak and let us know if it worked with you
thank you for your reply. still gotta wait around for greenpoison for mac. i don’t have a windows computer.
Mine worked on the Iphone 4! Followed instructions, a bunch of characters came up on my phone, kept waiting, phone restarts, I have the Loader on my phone and it installed cydia!
thats cool ….
Same
no problems here for me
stop your b1tchn everyone else. if you don’t like it go make your own or find something else…or don’t JB!
Follow the tutorial on this site.
You guys keep saying that to use TinyUmbrella to maintain the old baseband.
Just want to have a clear answer that if I stick with my current phone line provider (same provider that i purchase my iphone), means i can JB my iphone 4 with latest baseband without problem? I don’t I’ll switch to other provider at the moment.
You only need to preserve your baseband if you want your phone unlocked. If you are with ATT and it does not matter.
u dont need the unlock , you need not preserve baseband , however , if you change your mind later , you wont be lukcy to unlock from your carrier ..
I am thinking everyone is complaining that the jailbreak is not working because because they are not on Iphone 4 4.1.
il just stay with lovely limerain =]
How come there is no jailbreak that allows a jb from your phone like jailbreakme? Some ppl like myself don’t have computers so this sucks. And I have iph4 with 4.0.2 so am I really screwed?
bad luck
Well is there any suggestion or advice that you can give me because I gots to jailbreak my iph4 lol but seriously tho.
alot of people will do it for you for 20$
do that if you don’t have a PC
I already jailbreaking with Limera1n 2day ago. But i feel my iPhone 4 are running well after Jailbreaking with GP. It working smooth than Limera1n on Cydia. Thanks for Dev Team. Is worth for me to wait for GP. Thanks
ok , you mean its smoother after GP’ing
.. great …. one more reason to JB using GP … go dev go …
GUYS…..IF U HAVE IPHONE 4 AND IOS4.1 THEN IT WILL WORK FOR SURE..DONT GIVE UP IF U DONT GET SUCCESS IN FIRST ATTEMPT BCOZ OF THE TIMER THINGS…..I GOT SUCCESS IN 5TH TRY AND ITS WORKING PERFECTLY……………..CHEERS..HAPPY JAILBREAKING…
Same here! After a few times I was successful in jailbreaking my iPhone!!
Just wish there were more games available
Limera1n gets stuck in DFU on my 3g, after like 10 restores I give up, and now Greenpois0n does not detect when I am in DFU!!!
Screw this.
That’s probably because there are both for iPhone 4 and not iPhone 3GS. Why don’t you read before you bitch about it?
its done its done hurrey thankyou thankyu god bless! guys just read the instructions..
Do I need to upgrade to 4.1 from 4.0.2…read somewhere if I do this I may never be able to jailbreak…I am a first time iphone 4 user never jb before.
Yes , you need to , but follow the instruction to upgrade your IOS without upgrading your firmware
It’s easy using tinyumbrell.
No stay with 4.o2 and use limera1n, make sure you have the latest itunes for it to work, then unlock your fone with ultrasnow, that’s it…
my phone number is gone. i can´t call anybody. what should i do?
What phone , IOS are you on ?
Did you upgrade to 4.1 before trying ?
your problem sounds like someone who tried to jb/unlock on 4.0.2
I´m on IOS 4.1
when I jailbraked my iphone was like an iphone touch. I couldn´t send sms or anything. I could not even recover it with itunes but I finally fixed it with tinyumbrella. I think it has something to do with the company I bought the phone from
Can someone assure me that Iphone 4 is smoother after JB with GP than Limera1n ?
I don’t wana go through the whole thing again if it’s the same , Thanks
Sweet!!! So nice to have my favorite applications on my new iPhone 4 under IOS 4.1
Kudos!!!!
Lot of people are asking for the comparison between limera1n and greenpois0n jailbreak and which one to be preferred… Also, another question is what if both the jailbreak methods are used.???
I found this post http://www.iphone4jailbreak.org/?p=1834 that explains both of these questions along with simple steps on how to use Greenpois0n and Limera1n to jailbreak the iPhone IOS 4.1/4.0.x..
Good luck.
hi i upgraded my iphone 4 to ios 4.1 .. no it shows no sim installed window on the home screen so i am wondering if i would be able to jailbreak with gp or limerain or is there any other process???
thanks…after running tinyumbrell…where should I go to upgrade my iphone to 4.1?
Hi.. It’s really cool to have this new jailbreak released however it didn’t really work with my brand new iPhone 4 ios 4.1. Got my iPhone yesterday and – of course – it is 4.1 out of box. I followed the exact steps and it gives me “Qiut(Restart to retry)” and “Jailbreak Failed
”
PS: I downloaded the RC3 of greenpoison.
Any idea anyone… Thnaks
Hi, probably timing – you need to get it right and into DFU mode correctly. Then click the Jailbreak! button then be patient and let it go through the motions.
Thank you.. but really nothing seems to happen. I did the timing correctly and got it into DFU. Once I click jailbreak the Apple sign appears on the iPhone, jailbreaking continues and once it’s done it says “Jailbreaking Failed”.
same happen here, after apple logo iphone reboot and go to recovery mode
Hi..
An IMPORTANT UPDATE HERE.
In my first comment I didn’ mention that I was using Win7 on my MacBook through VMWarefusion and that was why I couldn’t jailbreak my iPhone. I have just finished jailbreaking the phone on a PC and it DID WORK with the final update of greenpois0n RC3.
Thanks.
Woo Hoo!! Jailbroken iPhone 4 running 4.1
Everything appears to be working fine ATM and Loader / Cydia installed over 3G data no problems!
Looking forward to tweaking my first JB iPhone!
Many thanks to chronic-dev team.
JB iPad !?!?!
Thank you! Got my IPhone 4 ios4.1 JB. I didn’t get the timing right for the first couple tries. After that everything went smoothly. iPhone reboot, started loader, intalled Cydia, Done!
i’m on 4.0.1 and tinyumbrella method to update to 4.1 doesn’t work as i get the following message: “CYDIA DOES NOT HAVE YOUR SHSH FOR iPhone4 4.0.1 (8A306) THERE IS NO WAY FOR YOU TO GET THEM. SORRY. YOU ARE JUST TOO LATE.”
what can i do to update to 4.1 and use GP??!
use jailbreakme method for your iphone …
iphone 4 is already jb’d using jailbreakme
you mean , you want to jb 4.1 now . I guess you are doing something wrong with the TinyUmbrella method , watch the video tutorial for TU upgrade method … it will clear things …
Try first updating your version of TinyUmbrella. Happened to me the same way and with the update was able to save SHSH blobs FWIW.
check this out : http://www.iphone4jailbreak.org/how-to-save-shsh-blobs-video-tutorial.html
thanks for your help.. realized my tinyumbrella wasn’t the most current version and that resolved the issues.
hi – excuse me for the very naive question – have researched and read all the blogs and tutorials but have to ask one more time before i go through with this! i have iphone 4, 4.02 from usa and need to unlock it to use a different sim card….so i know i can jb it with gp now but do i have to upgrade to 4.1 first? and save the shsh? i have no idea about it but will try to read the tuts…thx
Greenpois0n worked flawless for me (I4, IOS 4.1 official). Cydia installed, works with no errors and very quick! Thanks GP!
hi guys;
i want to ask different question to you.. ive iphone 3g now i buy iphone 4 with 4.0.2. i want to copy all my contact list and application to iphone 4. my itunes is installed on my macbook. now the question is if i restore my iphone4 with old account (iphone 3g) and get all stuuf to iphone 4. then plug it my PC and start process for jailbreaking, will i loose all stuff that ive installed before?
do u have any offer to transfer my contacts or other stuff by using MAC before jailbreaking iphone 4 in PC?
thanks for your help…
How to know the jailbreak is successful?
It didn’t show either “jailbreak failed”, or “jailbreak successful”.
I just JB my iPhone4, IOS 4.1 with GP, on WinXP.
1st attempt, until I see the “start jailbreak button” (can’t remember).
The green bar filled up instantly, for few times.
While it was processing, my iPhone screen came out some console messages, like booting up a Unix machine, and then went off, after that while Apple logo appeared, and then done, HOME screen is there.
I managed to launch “load”, after some downloading, the Cydia icon appeared.
BTW, I able to launch Cydia apps.
So is it consider a success?
anyone know when the mac version will be working?
I got my iPhone 4 4.1 JB after some unsuccessful tries. Bottom line is I think I did not get the phone in DFU mode right and everytime it showed “Jailbreak Failed
“.
My final try, followed the instruction to a “T” [Start GP, Off phone, connect to PC, press the ‘Start’ button, WAIT 3 seconds (grace period), then start pressing the Sleep button for 2 sec …etc
After that everything went smoothly as described in the tutorial.
The last part when the verbose mode text scrolling thru the blank screen (just like matix) I nearly froze hoping my phone don’t crash.
Loader app was there as expected after reboot, ran and installed Cydia.
Cydia app was there as expected too after reboot, took some time for cydia to rebuild.
Just writing to boost confidence to people out there who’s still considering this JB, it works, probably need to retry a few times to get DFU mode right.
I got it too! JB for Ipod Touch 2g MC model. You really have to get the timing right. I’m on windows 7 and I extracted it, but didn’t run it as admin. I also had to move my port to the back rather than the front. Thanks Buzz96.
Hi spottedtigers, I too have an ipod touch MC model. I have seen several different sets of instructions for putting the touch in DFU mode, some calling for the device to be turned on before you start, some for it to be turned off, and of course different amounts of time to press and hold the various buttons. Did you use the exact instructions that greenp0ison gave? I haven’t had much luck getting the device into DFU mode, it’s either extremely sensitive to precise timing or I’d doing it wrong, lol. Thanks!
Update: For you ipod touch MC users that can’t get any jailbreak to work, the only way I’ve gotten mine to work (after a LOT of trying) is to downgrade to 4.0. I had read where I had to have “SHSH blobs if you want to downgrade you’re f’ed!” and thought that meant if you upgraded to 4.1 it was too late and you couldn’t retrieve those SHSH blobs. That is NOT the case. You can run TinyUmbrella and downgrade to 4.0. I’ve confirmed this on ipod touch 2g MC model.
Thanks dude.
u got the only way that worked for me
hi ..i have iphone 4 factory unlocked ios 4.0.1 BB 1.59..and since it is factory unlocked, i dont have to worry about upgrading the Baseband while jailbreaking right?
hi ..i have iphone 4 factory unlocked ios 4.0.1 BB 1.59..and since it is factory unlocked, i dont have to worry about upgrading the Baseband while jailbreaking right?
-iphone is jailbroken and planning to upgrade to 4.1 if ever
Baseband is upgraded with OS upgrade, eg from 4.0.1 to 4.1.
However since yours is factory unlocked, then no issue, mine is also factory unlocked and did not encounter any problem upgrading to 4.1 and then JB with GP.
thanks!
jb worked for me thanks guys only thing what worried me was the unlock but just go to google and search for unlock and you will find info to get it unlocked
Will this greenpoison unlock my iphone that had accidentally been upgraded to 4.1 which changed the baseband to 02.10.04?
no
DOes it work for iphone 3gs ??? answer back ty
Quick question, that may be dumb. If I jailbreak on my windows computer, I can still use the phone with my mac for everything else right? Otherwise I’ll wait for the mac link to work.
Do i need to have internet connection? It gets as far as white screen then jail break failed just don’t know whats wrong i use wifi for internet only got one bar. It just gets stuck on white scree itunes connect thing doesn’t pop up just stuck on whiite
screen able to try agian but same results , is somthing wrong with my itunes or
internet connection?
SAme with me !
Is that a 3GS BB 05,14,02 ?
Is it ok to use limerain over greenpoison or the other way around ?
THnx

Pawel is this jailbreak reversible..??
Can u install installous in it.???
Does this make the phone slower.??
Hi friends I am new to iPhone 4 . I recently bought a factory unlocked iPhone which was 4.0.2 version .
Can I jailbreak my iPhone 4 with this jailbreak.
Is this jailbreak reversible, and will I be able to install installous in it.
Also tell me something about shsh blob or something like that what is it????
Hey friends someone reply please…
I am very eager to jailbreak my iPhone …
I jailbroke my IP4 using limerain and I stayed on 4.0.2 and it worked perfectly. And yes completely reversible using itunes restore. If you want to backup ur shsh download tinyumbrella and follow the tutorial.
I NEED HELP!!! i still cant manage to jailbreak my iphone 3g!!!! i did what the instruction prompt me to do.. but its allways comeback to retry… HELP someone!! and im uing win7
Is this jailbreak reversible to IOS 4.1? Will it void warranty of the phone?
No it will not void your warranty. And yes it’s completely reversible using itunes restore.
I have jailbroken Iphone 4 on OS 4.0.1 with a baseband 01.59.00.
Can any expert on here recommend me what my options are in-terms of upgrading to OS 4.1.
Should I upgrade to 4.1 and then Jailbreak?
Will the Jailbreak work?
Your answers are appreciated.
If your already jailbroken and its working just leave it. Otherwise I would wait for 4.2 coming out next month to upgrade and go from there.
Cool…
Thnx
wel….. guess wat…
it jus worked in the first shottt… .!!
yippeeee
Thanks for all this free will ! Great job. Long live the Dev Team et al.

it works as per instruction on win7 64bit. i had to use itune to restore my phone due to my own st00pidity. good job on GP
I have an Iphone 4 on ios 4.1 and I jailbroke it using greenpoison. It’s the first time I have ever jailbroken an iphone and it went smoothly. The thing is, it’s a little too much for me. I just want my phone to be unjailbroken again. I have searched the internet and tried to unjailbreak it with zero success. This is what I did. I hooked up my phone to my computer and itunes automatically opened and starting backing up/syncing. Once this process was over I clicked “restore” and it asked me to add ios 4.1 onto my phone. I did all this and it took over an hour to do. The only thing is, after all that time it didn’t work. It gave me an error message saying something along the lines of check my network connections or my network settings. Something like that? I have tried it about 3 or 4 times and get the same thing every single time? Can anybody help me unjailbreak my phone? It would be very appreciated.
I am facing one problem. I had followed whatever it said, but my iPod Touch 3GS just auto delete every data in it. I have to use my iTune to recover everything over again and again.
how to unzip the file to winrar? thanks
I used greenpoison and seemed to have unlocked my ip4 fine but now i’ve realised that videos (mp4) play without picture? youtube still works fine, as do mp4′s via itunes, just Vimeo and site embedded mp4′s are the issue. anyone else had this?
b
Hi, is your Iphone 4 a MC model?
I have windows 7 Pro 64 bit. greenpois0n work like a charm.I had no issues.
Can Iphone 4 IOS4.1 MC model be able to jailbreak by GrrenPoison? and for unlocking is it using ultrasNOw?
Greenpois0n JB worked fine from the second time on my iOS 4.1 iPhone. Just be patient in stead of saying that it’s not working.
hi currently my phone Ver is 4.1
i hav download t green poison. & it’s keep pop up t sign of try again. But currently my phone is under recorvy mode.
but it’s still keeping up t same sign.
Anybody knows the different between greenpoison RC3 with RC4?
hi,i’m new to this so i will apreciate a little help.
will jailbreaking with greenpoison instal cydia too ? if not from where can i instal cydia.
thank you
After you jailbreak, there will be a green icon which is a loader app. The cydia download is in this app.
all goes well and i end up gud but nothing hapen next
wht i do to mke my iphone 4 support other sims
tried limerain and green poison now
im screwed!!!!!
Hi just wondering would this work with iPhone 4 firmware 02.10.04 i dont really want to try it unless it works as its my 1st iPhone and dont no much about unlocking them for other sims.
Try limera1n. Always worked well so far. My latest JB performed on i4 iOS 4.1 02.10.01. Smooth… )
why everytime i try to jb my ipod touch 4 wit greenpoison it tells me to retry
Hey guys! Sure this has already been said, but too lazy to read all of the comments. Just thought I would let everyone know that you don’t have to have ‘winrar’ or download the program. Just hit run instead.
Hey, I didn’t put the link in for the word dwnload, it automatically does it, so I am not encouraging you to visit the link. I don’t know what it will do.
So I follow the steps.
every single one of them.
it tells me to jailbreak. so i pressed the jailbreak button.
it loads up and says jailbreak failed ):
i’ve tried multiple times and i get the same outcome.
I tried to use sn0wbreeze… it didn’t work either.
I have ipod touch 2nd gen MB model.
ps. I jb’ed my friends 3rd gen perfectly.
and she did not experience any problems.
my previous jailbreak was gp as well… but it constantly rebooted. i’d start up facebook app and then go into im+ app
and it would just shut down. it shut down a lot one day and it went into recovery mode by itself.
now i can’t even jailbreak.
I just bought i phone 4 and it had 4.1 iOS in it. i was trying to jailbreak with this tutorial, but after those seconds it always says try again. I tried 2 times, and thought screw it. But after that i cannot turn my phone on. It does nothing now.. any solutions? Please you if you can, help me.
same sh#t happened to mine
hi all, iphone 4 (16gb) iphone4 4.2.1 (8C148) Firmware 03.10.01
should i wait or risk it?
If reading is too hard for you, this youtube video walks you through the jailbreak via guru EverythingApplePro.
Greenpoison worked like a charm. All the hype about “hacking” being this long complicated process is BS. Jailbreaking is as easy as holding down a button or two for fifteen seconds.
If it doesn’t work, check which apple device you have and what VERSION you have. Settings > General > About > Version. Mine worked like a charm with 4.1 (8B117). I have the IPhone 4.
My phone is so amazing now. I’ve been playing with the Bioshock theme: I have a video background that looks like rapture with the fish swimming, and my app icons look like plasmids. The SNES is allowing me to replay EarthBound, which reminds me of being a kid. And there are many more emulators and customization options.
If you: 1. Have an IPhone 4
2. Have the version 4.1
3. Have never downloaded any modifications to the phone outside of apple/itunes
Then the jailbreak will work FINE. I had to do it twice but it takes 30 seconds.
That video is actually helpful, so watch it.
@ Miranda : thanks for the video link , the post is now updated with your video . dont forget to share

Hey guys,
I have a ipod touch 2G (non MC), and has already been successfully jailbreak it for 4.1 with greenpois0n (newest release). However, occasionally, it will be stuck with the apple logo. But if I wait for some time, (let say 10 mins), then it will be ok. Has anyone have the same problem?
thanks
My loader icon doesnt work!!! What i need to do?!?!?!?!
DO NOT use this method of jailbreak! Against my better judgment, I decided to try and jailbreak my 4.2.1 ipad again. I used redsnow the first time and it failed, but I didn’t learn and tried use greenpoison. It most certainly did poison my ipad! The moment greenpoison said “jailbreaking” the program quick unexpectedly and my ipad wouldn’t turn back on. I plug it into itunes to try and restore and i get the “this ipad cannot be restored” message. Now I’m shi**ing myself with a bricked ipad thanks to greenpoison. I followed all the instructions carefully, but this still happened. Trust me people, it isn’t worth it. DON’T JAILBREAK!!!
Barry,
I have not tried this yet myself. But did it ever occur to you that you may have done something wrong? How could all these people even with the slight errors never brick thier I-Pad/I-Pod/I-Phone and your the only one most recently? No speculation here just thinking either you did something wrong or your I-Pad maybe cr@pped out on you. Sorry this happened and hopefully when I attempt this myself soon I don’t have the smae problems.
Im having the same issues bro tried just about everything.
help please
al did all day was search search search
NO FIX
Hey guys, i tried this method and it works to a certain point but now i am stuck. I bought this iphone 4 about 3 months ago and it was version 4.1 (never activated, no sim card, but it did have every function but a phone) After i followed these steps everything seemed to work (the phone turns on with the green poison apple logo) but after that, on the phone it just says “no sim card installed” with the apple usb cord, arrow to the itunes logo in the background allowing me only to make emergency calls… Do i need absolutely need a sim card in order to get back to the main screen or is there a program i can install to bypass it. I guess im asking if i need to activate it before i can unlock it. thank you in advance
if greenpoison doesnt work, try redsn0w, but u have to download the ipsw yourself though
i was trying the jailbreak and now my phone wont turn on what should i do?
does it work for ipod touch 3G?
This works fine on the ipad on 4.2.1, but only after I turn on itunes. Somehow itunes failed to launch after launching greenpoison.
After it goes into dFU mode and before clicking on jailbreak, launch itunes then click jailbreak. That works for me!
i have try to jailbreak with greenpoison but its start up after jailbreak finished. when jailbreaking its processed it showing me unable to find gbdevlist, fs_mount, fs_ lod_file and then greenpoison initialised. after that its showing large list of something iboot version and powerstate 1….pls help me

Hi: I download greenpois0n for my iphone 3GS 4.1. Tried a few times but it was not working. It always stuck at the white screen. and greenpoi0n shows “Quick greenpoison to try again”. Is there anything else that I can do?
bye the way. my iphone3GS running 4.1 on 05.14.12 baseband. Will greenpois0n works for jailbreaking now? I downloaded gp_win32.rc4. I wonder this is the currect one to use. Thanks!
I get pleasure from, cause I found just what I was taking a look for. You’ve ended my 4 day long hunt! God Bless you man. Have a nice day. Bye
Hehe, obrigado… Olha, acabou de ser lançado o jailbreak para o iOS 4.3.1. Só para confirmar, o seu iPad é o original né (o 1º)?
