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.

If you have an iPod touch 3G, why not go onto iOS 4.1?
Since well....It;s not slow on your device.

You should also know how to boot a tethered device, and perhaps backing up SHSHs on your computer. Have fun jailbreaking!

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).

There is a tethered jailbreak available. An Untethered version will be available by christmas.
Not necessarily, but it is expected by then (or around that time).

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.

Accessing the file system, using SBsettings, using themes, a bunch of awesome tweaks for springboard (like graviboard, SBrotator and Iconoclasm), syncing with wifi, etc.
The possibilities are endless. And yes, free apps.

The main thing is that the bootROM revision doesn't appear to have changed as it has with every other fix (for obvious reasons) and there hasn't been any model number change (which would be expected with a part replacement)

    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
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.

    never had that i don't think
