Pre-requisites
1) Users are reminded that the Redsn0w 0.9.15b3 supports only tethered jailbreak which means they need connect the device to the computer on every reboot except iPhone 3GS with older bootrom. Â
2) This tethered jailbreak is compatible with pre-A5 devices such as iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 and iPod Touch 4G.Â
2) Currently it is not possible to jailbreak devices such as iPhone 5, iPhone 4S, iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad mini and iPod Touch 5G
3) Back-up all the data of the iOS device before proceeding.
4) Ensure that the battery of the device carries above 80 per cent of charge.
5) The tutorial below uses an iOS 6.0 jailbreak with the iOS 6.1.3 file system, therefore it is likely to create some unknown issues.
