If you don’t care about Unlocking, update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to iOS 4.3.3 via iTunes. (If you’re not sure, here’s how to update.)

Next, you will need to download redsn0w via the link above

Next, you will need to go grab the appropriate iOS firmware for your device. (Located in the directory listed above)

Once you have downloaded the correct firmware and redsn0w, you are now ready to jailbreak.

After you launch redsn0w, you will be asked to browse and choose the custom firmware you downloaded in the previous step.

redsn0w will process the firmware…

…and let you know when it’s good to go

Next you’ll choose to install Cydia

And then redsn0w will walk you through placing your device in DFU mode. Just make sure you start this process with your device OFF.

Let your device do its thing and then reboot it and your ready to roll!
