Which devices can be jailbroken?

This is a post I’ve been asked to write via email. There is a lot of confusion regarding the jailbreakability of certain devices due to the ios4 update. Here’s a quick guide of what can be jailbroken.

Don’t update itunes to 9.2 is you want spirit to work!!!

So far the iPhone dev team have released redsn0w. This works for the iPhone3g and iPod touch 2g.

They have stated that they will release pwnagetool that will jailbreak most devices on iOs 4. However, until it is released, we can’t say for certain what devices it will support. Check back often, I’ll update this once they release PwnageTool. :)

Update!!

It doesn’t support any ipod touches (yet). It supports iPhones (most). However, there are several scenarios. Check their blog for details for your scenario

As always

    The iPod touch mc model cannot be jailbrokrn with redsnow or pwnage tool. It is technically a 3G iPod touch without voice control or multitasking. We have to wait for geohot or the chronic dev teams greenpois0n.
