redsn0w is the only way to go when it comes to jailbreaking 4.2.1 on an iPod touch. Though on newer models, it's limited to a tethered jailbreak.

I rebooted a few time now just to make sure. Up and runnig. Thanks again for the help here and the great Guide! Maybe if i get bored ill try 4.1

There is a tethered jailbreak available. An Untethered version will be available by christmas.Sotoro said:Still no jailbreak for ipod touch 4 and 4.2.1 right?
Not necessarily, but it is expected by then (or around that time).Lightning said:Means that I must connect to my pc to boot my iPod to use Ciddea? What if I don´t connect to my pc? Will it launch normal? And if I need to connect to my pc is plug in, boot, plug out?
Edit: I believe I found it. not very sure since my English is as broken as the hell.
Edit 2: Can I go back to basic after I do not want my jailbreak anymore? And will there stay any signs of it on my touch 4g? Will my warranty still be voided after that?
Depending on what you have installed, iOS may refuse to load Cydia/unsigned apps, or even hang at the Apple logo. You'll need to run redsn0w to boot it up when the device is connected.
Your warranty is technically void once you jailbreak, but you can always eliminate all jailbreak traces with a DFU restore (and not using a backup).

metamaster said:Only one? You get full control of your device. All limitations put by Apple are removed, therefore you can do anything that your device can handle.

The possibilities are endless. And yes, free apps.
