6. After you have downloaded that, click browse. Click on the desktop and click the firmware that you just downloaded. It should reconize the IPSW file and then you click “next”.
7. YOU HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT INSTALL CYDIA IS CHECKED!!! That is the whole reason that you are jailbreaking. Then click next
8. Shut off your device and get ready. As soon as you click “next”, you have to immediately hold down the power button for 3 seconds, power and home for 10 seconds, and then the home until the next screen pops up or you hear that noise that says something has been connected. This will be different for the iPhone 3GS.
9. YOU ARE DONE!!!
NOTE: This jailbreak does not require you to shift-restore your iPod/iPhone.
