MuscleNerd Announces a Major Update to the RedSn0w Jailbreak Utility

MuscleNerd has announced a major update to RedSn0w that removes the need to select an IPSW and brings the ability to save and submit your SHSH Blobs to Cydia.

Will be pushing out a major redsn0w feature upgrade before my trip to Korea: http://is.gd/PMAdT1 (and look, no IPSW selection button!)

The new version of RedSn0w will be released before Monday. Rather than requiring ipsw selection, RedSn0w will now automatically fetch the important pieces directly from Apple (and caches them so that it never needs to re-fetch them again).

Check out the screenshots below and stay tuned to iClarified for more info and tutorials. You can follow us on Twitter, Facebook, RSS, etc using the links at the very bottom of the page...

For those wondering, the new RedSn0w "won't auto-fetch the betas (since they're not public). You need to provide them (once)."

That is awesome ... hopefully just in time for the untether 5.0 jailbreak ;)
 
Nice, seeing as how I'm still using 4.2.1 JB I'd definitely go for the new features for iOS 5.
 
YES

Saving SHSH blobs through Cydia is good

Can't wait for untethered iOS5 JB to come out quick :D

On twitter the dev team claims they have at least 5 userland exploits for an untether for the iPad 2 (which also means at least 5+ for older devices), and potentially the new iPhone(s) too. Surely, they are testing it on the betas and when the GM hits they will start finalizing it. It feels like they will have the iOS 5 untethered JB out a LOT sooner than the iOS 4.

Meaning a jailbreak for 5.0 ipad 2 will be out in the very near furture? Awwww yeaaahhh
 
Can't wait for the untethered jailbreak for the ios5 on my iphone 4 and ipad 2 :D
 
Actually Redsn0w 0.9.9b1 released but now only tethered jailbreak for 4.3.5 and ios 5
