Jailbreak iOS 4 With Sn0wbreeze 1.6

on 06/25/2010 01:43 PDT

With Apple’s iPhone 4 officially launched, many folks are already looking for ways to jailbreak it, and the maker of BlackBreeze has just released sn0wbreeze 1.6, which is able to jailbreak Apple’s latest firmware. It functions similarly to PwnageTool 4.0.1, but it’s designed for Windows. It’s also worth noting that Sn0wbreeze 1.6 is capable of jailbreaking the iPhone 3GS running the old bootrom, and pwned on 3.1.2 (with anything other than the Spirit jailbreak), not to mention the iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G. As usual, do remember that nobody is going to take responsibility if you muck up the jailbreak and end up with an expensive paperweight, so proceed with caution.

iOS was once upon a time called iPhone OS, or "operating system", which is the software that provides all the basic device functionality and is the interface between the hardware and applications. iOS was introduced with the iPhone on January 9 2007, and it was originally not intended to be programmable by third parties. Steve Jobs had envisioned that developers could create Web Apps that would run in the browser. This changed less than one year after when the iPhone SDK (software development kit) was introduced in October 2007. Today, hundreds of thousands of apps have been created for this platform. iPhone OS became iOS on June 2010. Interestingly, both iPhone and iOS were former trademarks of Cisco, that Apple now uses under a license.
