Hey everybody,

I still don't know weather to Jailbreak my iTouch with Red Sn0w.

1) Can my iTouch bust like never turn on ever again?

2)Is it worth it to Jailbreak?

3)I have an instructional guide video on, but I'm scared.

4)Has anybody used RedSn0w before?

5)If Yes to 4, did you have ANY PROBLEMS.

Ok, so please, PEOPLE HELP ME. I AM SCARED. I have RedSn0w downloaded, I have everything set up by these 2 videos;

SO PLEASSSSE HELP ME. I AM LOST AND THINK I NEED BRAIN HELP. I FEEL DEPRESSED AND LIKE I'M BEING PULLED BY GOOD CLEAN FUN, AND 'NO, YOU CAN HAVE THEMES AND CUSTOM ICONS.'

HELPHELPHELP Thank:apple:You
 
There is a semi-tethered version of redsn0w out, maybe you should better try that.
I've never had a problem with jailbreaking my iPod, but once LogoMe won me and killed my iPod and it didn't want to turn on! I thought it permanently died, but the simple steps were to force it to DFU mode and click restore. It's live and kicking now :)
 
I don't suggest using redsn0w, until it's full version is released. This method is complicated for the average user, and there are many things that can go wrong.

Is there an estimated time frame when the full version is released? Thanks!

You shouldn't jailbreak your iPod touch until Redsn0w officially comes out, without the tether method if you're getting depressed about it. Also, go see a doctor. If you're that lost about it, then something tells me that you shouldn't even attempt this until Redsn0w is out and tested. If all you want is themes, then it really shouldn't matter to you.
Just my 2 pence.

If you are lost, I wouldn't suggest doing this.

You seem to need more help than anyone would be willing to give you.
 
Does anyone know an approximate date that the full version of redsn0w will be released? (srry if its already been asked).:eek:, oh and the kid on the youtube video said that u shouldn't try it on Vista. I have Vista :(, what do i do then?
 
Ok everybody, umm another thing;

WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OF TETHERED!!!!

LOL, well if you don't know what "tethered" means, you definitely shouldn't be using redsn0w. :D

It means you have to be connected (that is, tethered) to a computer in order to reboot your ipod.

Yes, you better be sorry -- someone asked that earlier in this very thread! ;)
 
Thanks

Okay, well, I finally understand everything I need to. Thanks to all and to all a good night.

Do you have to be connected at ALL times? Or just to turn it on?
