Download Sn0wbreeze Jailbreak 4.2.1 & Preserve Baseband [How to Guide]

For iPhone 3G users you have to enable all choices as it add functions not added naively from Apple.

Update iPhone 4 to 4.2.1and Preserve Baseband 01.59.00 [Full Guide]

his tutorial will show you how to upgrade your iPhone 4 to iOS 4.2.1 without upgrading its baseband using TinyUmbrella for Windows.

Note: This ONLY Works with the iPhone 4!

Step One

Download TinyUmbrella from here Also make sure to download the iPhone 4 iOS 4.2.1 which 

you can find here.

 

Step Two
Double click the downloaded TinyUmbrella.exe file.

If you get a Windows Firewall notification, check both boxes and click Allow Access.

Step Three
Make sure the device is connected, and Umbrella has detected the type of device and its firmware.
 

**If you haven't already saved your iOS 4.2.1 SHSH blobs then click Save SHSH. Make sure they successfully save before continuing.

Step Four
Hit Start TSS Server and make sure you receive no errors.
 
Once The TSS Server is "running" successfully, umbrella will kill iTunes. Leave TinyUmbrella Open. You can double check to see if the TSS server is running under the Log tab.

If you do receive an error, DO NOT continue. Your restore will not work if the TSS server cannot be started.

Step Five
Open iTunes by doubling clicking its icon in the dock.
 

Hold down the Shift key and click Restore
 

Select your iPhone 4.2.1 firmware file from the popup window that appears and click Open.

Click Restore to begin restoring your device.
 

Step Six
iTunes should give you error 1013. This is what we wanted, as it notes the baseband has not updated :) Click Ok and close iTunes.

If you get a 16XX error then try entering DFU and go to step 5.
If your restore does NOT end in a 1013, it means your baseband was updated. This is likely because you did not have the TSS server running OR you updated without TinyUmbrella OR you are working with a device OTHER than iPhone 4.

Step Seven
Place your iPhone into DFU mode by holding down both the Power and Home buttons for ten seconds, then release the Power button and continue holding the Home button for another 5 seconds. You can find help with DFU mode here.
 

Step Eight
You are now ready to follow our Greenpois0n tutorial which will jailbreak your device and bring it out of DFU mode. **Note: You do not need to put the device into DFU mode after press the Jailbreak button in Greenpois0n as we have already done this :)

Step Nine
Your iPhone will now be on 4.2.1 with the 1.59.00 baseband! (Which means you can now unlock using this tutorial)

iPhone 5 to Feature A5 Processor and 4-inch Display

According to Digitimes, Apple will increase iPhone 5 display to be 4-inch, the existing iPhone 4 has a 3.5-inch, Apple will make this screen expanding in order to better compete with the Google Android platform in the 4 to 7-inch smartphone market.

From component suppliers:
The component suppliers noted that the production lines for Apple's next generation iPhone have begun testing, and Apple is interesting in expanding the screen size to 4-inches to support the tablet PC market as the vendor only has a 9.7-inch iPad in the market.

Digitimes also noting that iPhone 5 will sport A5 processor which will directly compete with recently launched Android handsets sporting Tegra 2 dual-core processors.

Apple is reportedly looking to outsource the production of its A4 processor as well as the next-generation ARM Cortex-A9-based A5 processor to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), according to industry sources.

According to Digitimes Research, the iPad 2 will support an enhanced version of the A4 and the A5 will power the iPhone 5. TSMC will initially produce the improved A4, and could likely become the exclusive manufacturer of the A5.

Downgrade iOS 4.2.1 to 4.1 / 4.0.2 / 4.0.1 on iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G, iPod touch and iPad

iOS 4.2.1 was released yesterday for iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G, iPod touch 4G, 3G, 2G and iPad. Even though iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak is possible via Redsn0w 0.9.6b2, but Cydia is still broken which makes the jailbreak pointless for many. It also contains new baseband for all iOS devices which currently makes it impossible to unlock using existing version of Ultrasn0w. So if you upgraded to iOS 4.2.1 and now want to downgrade back to iOS 4.1 / 4.0.2 / 4.0.1, follow the instructions posted below to downgrade iOS 4.2 on iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G, iPod touch and iPad to iOS 4.1 / 4.0.x.

NOTE: This guide will only work if you have SHSH blobs saved for the respective firmware you downgrading to.

STEP 1: Download iOS 4.1 or older firmwares for iPhone or iPod Touch.

STEP 2: Put your iPhone in DFU Mode by following this steps,

• Connect your iPhone to your computer.
• Turn iPhone off.
• Start iTunes
• Hold Power and Home buttons together for 10 seconds or so.
• Release Power button but keep holding the Home button until your computer recognizes a new USB device.
• iTunes will now recognize your iPad.

STEP 3: If you are on iPhone 3G or iPod touch 2G (non-MC model) bypass this step. This step is about adding Saurik’s Server address to your system hosts file. This trick make iTunes thinks it is talking to Apple, while it is talking to Cydia while the restoring process.

• Locate "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\" for Windows and "/etc/" directory for Mac, then locate “hosts” file andOpen it in Notepad (for Windows) or TextEdit (for Mac OS X) and add this at the bottom of the file.

74.208.105.171 gs.apple.com

At last it will be like that, then save it

STEP 4: Now, You will have to restore your iDevice to iOS 4.1, 4.0.2 or 4.0.1  by clicking on the iPhone icon on the left sidebar of iTunes then hold left “alt” button on Mac (“Shift” button on Windows) on the keyboard and then click on “Restore” then release the alt button, Now Select the iOS 4.1, 4.0.2 or 4.0.1 ipsw file you have already downloaded in Step 1 and let iTunes do some automated Steps.

STEP 5: You will need to exit recovery mode, so download TinyUmbrella (Windows / Mac). Run it and the click on “Exit Recovery” button. Your device will now restart normally.
