Jailbroken iPhone 4 on 4.2.1 with modified PwnageTool

Just wanted to let you guys know that I just jailbroke both of my iPhone 4's on 4.2.1 while keeping my 1.59.00 baseband using the method described on this website:

Just wanted to share my experiences and it went well.

It would be nice if the team would get on this instead of us having to resort to some guy who is creating bundles to modify the team's program with.

Glad it worked.

To update, everything is going well. I was able to add all of my jailbroken apps and everything is running fine, Cydia is a bit slow and the ModMyi repo is down but that's no fault of the jailbreak.

One thing is that it does not hacktivate (the readme in the file stated that the guy was too lazy to modify the bundle) so you'll need an official SIM to activate.

Another thing is that I was not able to decrease the size of the partition. For my 4.1 P/T jailbreak, my partition was 888 and this one would not let me go any lower than 955 (When I was on 888, I was 17% free, now i have 31% free. I don't see that as a problem but that was something different.
