Depends on your firmware. If you're on 4.1, yes. If you're on 4.2.1, the jailbreak will be tethered and you'll have to use redsn0w, not greenpois0n (tethered as in you need to plug in your iPod in a computer and rejailbreak every time you want to turn it on)
That's temporary until a new version of the software is released, right?

If you're tethered on 4.2 and want to untether with the new program that's on it's way, you'll apparently have to restore. (I saw that on one of the developers' twitter)

Thx Dialexio, so according to this list http://theiphonewiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Firmware ipod touch 3G 32GB can be jailbreaked untethered up to including ios 4.1 is that right, so if i reboot i dont need a pc?

What is the firmware i should use, do i have disadvantages if i stay on 3.1.3 newer games dont work e.g.??? Recommended firmware for 3G?

I red so much but its confusing since so many sites write different things as the original wikipedia write 3G cannt be jailbreaked untethered just tethered as they are mc models and 2G and 4G now is untethered. And that around christmas greenpoison will release untethered jb for ipod 3g?

thanks

^ I tried the unlock and it didn't ask me for the iPad's firmware. I think redsn0w is just downloading the baseband, so you can let it finish.

@heman110: You should go to 4.1 because your iPod model is more powerful and can support all the features of 4.0 without any lag (including newer more demanding games). The things you hear with MB and MC models don't apply to you, only to people with 2g iPod touches (MB) and those with 3g 8gb iPod touches (MC). Your exact iPod model is tethered on 4.2.1, but it's untethered on 4.1. I think Apple is still signing 4.1 SHSH blobs, which means you can update straight to 4.1 through iTunes. There are two methods that are being worked on to untether all models on 4.2: one that uses 4.2b3 SHSH blobs (and uses no exploit) and one with an all new exploit that is being developped by Comex. He says it should come out by Christmas, but it won't necessarily be Greenpois0n.
Also, tethered means that you have to rejailbreak your iPod everytime you turn it off, otherwise you just get stuck at the Apple logo.

Edit: I think that if Apple is still signing 4.1 SHSH blobs (not sure), you have to save them with Tiny Umbrella and use it in conjunction with iTunes to update.

Edit 2: Apparently, Apple is only signing 4.1 updates on 2g iPod touches and 3g iPhones. So unless you want a tethered jailbreak, I suggest you wait until a new jailbreak is released and stay on 3.1.3 for now.

Ok I'll try that. One more question...
smile.gif
I've first activated the phone with AT&T's SIM card. Then I did the jailbreak with redsn0w (not sure if it hacktivated since the phone was already activated). Will it be ok to now unlock with redsn0w? Or might it brick?

unlikely it will brick. just double check your baseband and see if its unlockable with ultrasn0w

I was in the exact same situation as you (aside from the carrier) and didn't get a brick. You shouldn't get one either.

And yes you can update. Press the start TSS server in Tiny Umbrella, open iTunes and shift-click update. From there, you have to select the 4.1 ipsw which you must have downloaded before (google it). After that, you can jailbreak your iPod with Greenpois0n or Limera1n.

Hey guys.
I am working on another video for the guide.
Just thought I would let you all know.
I think our redsn0w video is out of date I'm just really bored basically.

So, YEAH!

Try and add in the new unlock method.

I don't have an iPhone that needs unlocking.
Also, I don't have my own iPhone, I have access to my sisters. But they won't let me use it.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages

    It does that when I edit a post.

    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
