How to Jailbreak an Iphone

So alot of people are run in to are scared to jailbreak their iphone because they think it's either too complicated or too risky. Well the matter of the fact is that it's neither. Jailbreaking the iphone only takes about 5 minutes and if it doesn't work or if you don't like it, you can always plug in your phone to iTunes and hit the restore to take it back to the backed up configuration.

Before I post the quick steps to jailbreak the iphone i just wanted to remind everyone not to do this for the wrong reasons (ie, free apps, etc...) but to have the freedom of open source codes on your phone.

Here are the quick steps:
  1. Download Redsnow for the version of your Iphone (ie. 4.1.2) from the iternet - Google will help
  2. Download the official ISPW (IOS) for your iphone version from the apple website. You can also get this from your pc where iTunes stores the backup.
  3. Connect your phone to your PC
  4. Launch RedSnow
  5. Follow the instructions on RedSnow and Jailbreak
And thats all it takes, good luck to all
