[OFFICIAL] Jailbroken iPod/iPhone Thread

[syko2006]

Hey guys, I've got an Ipod Touch 2G running 2.2.1 software. I really want to jailbreak it but don't want to lose anything on it for instance music and photos. If I jailbreak it can I keep all that stuff as it's already on it? If I can, is there a way to jailbreak it for noobs 'cos I'm really bad when it comes to this sort of stuff and will probably end up bricking it lol.

Thanks.

I think that 'Lockdown' is the best app for Jailbroken iDevices by far. It allows you to pin protect applications you choose.

Is this available in the app store?

Thanks Robbie, but that's for firmware 3.2.1 etc and it didn't really answer any of my questions. Thanks anyways.

What? Download spirit off that website and open it up. Then click 'jailbreak'.

He can't. Like he said, Spirit is for 3.1.2, 3.1.3 and 3.2. He needs a jailbreak for 2.2.1.

Redsn0w 0.3 should work for 2.2.1, download it here >> http://www.mediafire.com/?ymj50xmg1bt
Or from a torrent here >> http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4841...0w-win_0.3.zip
Just put the ipod into DFU and run redsn0w.exe
I can't remember if it deletes all of your stuff, so just back everything up through itunes before you do it
If you prefer to use a GUI (it's much easier), you could use QuickFreedom >> http://quickfreedom.com/
I used redsn0w and quickfreedom ages ago to jailbreak mine and my friend's ipods, both worked perfectly

Out of interest (and cba to read the thread), why are you still using 2.2.1? :S
