Jailbreak iOS 4.2 GM With Redsn0w 0.9.6b2
Yesterday Apple Released iOS 4.2 Gold Master For Developers and it turns out Redsn0w 0.9.6b2 can jailbreak it. All you have to do is point redsn0w to the 4.1 IPSW instead of 4.2. If you are planning to jailbreak, make sure to uncheck the Cydia box, because many apps “including Cydia” need to be updated for 4.2. Unlockers should stay away.
There is a new app in Cydia, called Musicdog. Musicdog is a new and free music streaming application which requires iOS4+. You can search among 100,000+ songs, suggest songs, check out the top rated tracks and it also supports multitasking. All you need is a account, login and you are ready to stream free music. » Musicdog: Streaming Free Music [jailbreak]
