Sn0wbreeze: PwnageTool to Jailbreak iOS 4 for Windows Coming Soon

iPhone 4 - First Impressions

iPhone Dev Team released PwnageTool 4.0 yesterday, which made it possible for iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS (old bootrom) users to update and jailbreak their iPhone with iOS 4. But it’s available only for Mac users.

So if Windows users are feeling left out, we’ve some good news for you. iH8sn0w, developer of Sn0wbreeze, which is the Windows version of the PwnageTool has announced that he will be releasing Sn0wbreeze for iOS 4 very soon.

Sn0wbreeze for iOS 4 will allow users to create custom firmware (.ipsw file) so that they can update and jailbreak their iPhone with iOS 4.

Sn0wbreeze will support the same devices as PwnageTool 4.0:

  • iPhone 3G/3GS (old bootrom/already jailbroken–NOT INCLUDING Spirit)

  • iPod Touch 2G

iH8sn0w has also published a video of Sn0wbreeze in action:

 

We’ll let you know as soon as Sn0wbreeze 4.0 is available, it could be as early as today. So stay tuned here at iPhone Hacks or follow us on Twitter or subscribe to our RSS feed.

  4. Mr. Tex says:

    This might be silly question. But i received my i4 tdy. But my question is, can i just jb it. I dont need the unlock. Please let me know IP.Hacks or someone. Cause i really dont want to start using it until i can actually jb it.

  5. dibsta says:

    yes you can just use a fake itunes server worked for

  6. dibsta says:

    worked for me

  7. donkeykong says:

    mine is a 3G jailbroke with blackrain on 3.1.2 then up graded to 3.1.3 and jailbroke with spirit. I now already upgraded to ios4 and restored to manufacture setting. does it mean i'm ok to jailbreak mine with snowbreeze when it comes out or i have to wait for spirit?

  8. saadi says:

    right click on the file-change name and just change the format to .ipsw

  9. d brown says:

    i jailbroke my 3G using redsnow 9.5.B5-3, it's working fine with multitasking and folders, camera zoom all ok as far as i can see

  10. d brown says:

    ment to say that i had updated to io4 first

  11. bobi says:

    Successfully Jailbreaked iOS4 on windows with redsn0w 0.9.5b5-3 and unlock with ultrasn0w 0.93
    its working

  12. jitjet says:

    If my phone was jailbroken by Spirit in the pass, but now I have already restored it back to factory setting ios 4, will I be able to jailbreak it?

  13. hxclos says:

    I'm not too worried about it not working. I heard GeoHot is working on something big anyways. Probably another simpler jailbreak tool.

  14. mike says:

    I did the jailbreak to 4.0 and everything works great, except I cannot sync my apps (jailbroken apps) or music for some reason. Any suggestions?

  15. Mr. Tex says:

    Your best bet is App Backup. I use it faithfully. Question, do u have the new iPhone or 3g/3gs. I am assuming I can use the redsn0w beta, im jus nervous. Yet anxious O_o Gonna try anyway…. but jus want I guess re-assurance.

  16. Nick says:

    HERE IS HOW I JAILBROKE AND UNLOCKED MY 3G WITH 4.O

    I UPGRADED TO 4.0 THROUGH ITUNES, THEN DOWNLOADED redsn0w 0.9.5b5-2, AND I DOWNLOADED ANOTHE COPY OF iPhone1,2_4.0_8A293_Restore BECAUSE redsn0w WOULDN'T TAKE THE COPY THAT ITUNES DOWNLOADED. JUST WENT THROUGH THE PROCESS AND FOLLOWED THE STEPS, AND WHITHIN MINUTES I HAD A JAILBROKEN 3G RUNNING 4.0 WITH WALLPAPERS AND MULTYTASKING. AFTER THAT I DOWNLOADED ultrasn0w THROUGH CYDIA AND UNLOCKED MY IPHONE 3G!!!!

  17. IPSEEKERED says:

    NICK I WAS TRYING TO DO THAT…BUT AFTER DOWNLOADING REDSNOW AND EXTRACT .. I CANT GET IT TO RUN THROUGH…. I HAVE WINDOWS

  18. Mike Ross says:

    Bobi what firmwire file did u use?

  19. Nick says:

    U USED WINRAR TO EXTRACT IT. IF IT DOESN'T WORK, TRY DOWNLOADING IT AGAIN, OR FROM ANOTHER SITE. iT WORKED PERFECT FOR ME, THE ONLY ISSUE WAS THAT IT WOULDN'T ACCEPT THE IOS 4 DOWNLOADED BY ITUNES, SO I HAD TO DOWNLOAD IT FROM A RANDOM SITE WHICH I DONT REMEMBER, BUT JUST GOOGLE: iPhone1,2_4.0_8A293_Restore

  20. dan says:

    if i have my shs blob saved does that mean i can downgrade back to 3.1.3, if so can someone please tell me how would be great :)

  21. Anshul says:

    it's already out

  22. IPSEEKERED says:

    I TRIED THIS PROCESS .. WHEN I BROWSED THE FIRMWARE IT SAID UNABLE TO RECOGNIZE SPECIFIED FIRMWARE

  23. SBFmech says:

    I used redsn0w_win_0.9.5b5-3. Restored my iphone 3g with iTunes, used the official 4.0 firmware downloaded from apple, jailbroke, ran Cydia, unlocked with multitasking, and custom wallpaper. I will admit though, phone does run a little slow trying to multitask

  24. IPSEEKERED says:

    FOR SOME REASON I CANT FIND redsn0w 0.9.5b5-3 .. AND I LOOKED EVERYWHERE

  25. IPSEEKERED says:

    I CANT FIND IT..redsn0w 0.9.5b5-3 for Windows WHERE DID YOU DOWNLOAD IT .. I TRIED GOOGLE SEVERAL TIMES

  26. iDre says:

    I have a 3GS, jailbroken with Spirit. I'm on version 3.1.3, 05.12.01 firmware. My serial # is 86937***3**. I read somewhere that you can tell what bootrom I have using the #s that are in the serial number. Can someone help me figure that out? I am wanting to jailbreak & unlock as soon as possible but I have no clue if i'm already on the new bootrom or still on the old. the stars are only replacing letters. Thanks!

  27. gunnar says:

    everyone needs to know: dont update until devteam has a jailbreak for ios4. otherwise you can't jailbreak until they release a new jailbreak.

  28. IPSEEKERED says:

  34. n00b says:

  35. Beretta007 says:

    ok I need help. I have a 32GB 3gs, unlocked with black ra1n.
    Bootrom: 359.3.2
    Firmware: 3.1.2 (7D11)
    Modem: 05.11.07

    Never jailbroken with spirit.
    Have access to mac and pc.
    Need to stay unlocked if possible. Want 4.0
    What backup or status do I need to get the phone into before I start? I also have another phone the same that has never been unboxed and arrived the same day.

    Im confident enough to follow a tutorial, just need to know what state I need to be in before I start

    Thanks

  36. Spitfire says:

    Nope, He's in Berlin right now and said stop asking about a JB, it ain't happening from him.

  37. Ha Duong says:

    Hi Nozzy
    Is there a possible for me who jailbreak the phone using spirit to jail break the OS4 in future??
    Thanks a lot

  38. Nick says:

    Do what I did a couple of pages down:

    HERE IS HOW I JAILBROKE AND UNLOCKED MY 3G WITH 4.O

    I UPGRADED TO 4.0 THROUGH ITUNES, THEN DOWNLOADED redsn0w 0.9.5b5-2, AND I DOWNLOADED ANOTHE COPY OF iPhone1,2_4.0_8A293_Restore BECAUSE redsn0w WOULDN'T TAKE THE COPY THAT ITUNES DOWNLOADED. JUST WENT THROUGH THE PROCESS AND FOLLOWED THE STEPS, AND WHITHIN MINUTES I HAD A JAILBROKEN 3G RUNNING 4.0 WITH WALLPAPERS AND MULTYTASKING. AFTER THAT I DOWNLOADED ultrasn0w THROUGH CYDIA AND UNLOCKED MY IPHONE 3G!!!!

    don't be afraid to upgrade your software, the latest redsn0w would jailbreake the latest ios 4 and modem firmware.

  39. Beretta007 says:

    Thanks Nick, can you confirm that will work with 3Gs??

    + will upgrading to 4.0 through itunes update the bootrom??

  40. Nick says:

    i'm not sure about 3gs since I only have a 3g, but i don't see why wouldn't it work. And the bootrom might be updated, I did all of this with an iphone that i'm no longer using (i'm using and HD2) but if it does update your bootrom, you can still use the latest version of ultrasn0w to unlock your iphone again.

  41. pawan says:

    if it is 3g u can upgrade and unlock using ultrasn0w and redsn0w

  42. bobi says:

    give me u r mail and I'll setnd it to you

  43. HI5 says:

  46. Mike Ross says:

    NozzyEz How do i downgrade to 3.1.2? i hit shift and look for the restore file and then i get some error? after 2 min sayin something unkown ? please help

  47. Nick says:
