Want to jailbreak iOS 6.0.1 on iPhone 4, 3GS and iPod Touch 4G ? I have made tutorial on how to jailbreak your iPhone 3GS on iOS 6.0.1 using redsn0w for Windows or Mac. redsn0w is updated to version 0.9.15b3 which jailbreaks iOS 6.0.1 on A4 idevices only and fixes glitches on the previous beta, This jailbreak is untethered for iPhone 3GS and tethered for iPhone 4 and iPod touch 4G. 

Important : Tethered jailbreak means you will need to connect your idevice to your computer each time you reboot :(. However, I would suggest you to keep your hands off of this jailbreak unless you really need it and want to keep your unlock and wait for an untethered one. The tutorial is same for both Mac and Windows.

Supported idevices 
  • iPhone 4 (tethered)
  • iPhone 3GS (untethered old bootrom).
  • iPod touch 4G (tethered).

Requirements
  • Download iOS 6.0.1 firmware for your idevice

Step 1 : Make a folder on your desktop and name it Pwnage. Download redsn0w 0.9.15b3 and  6.0.1 firmware above and place them in Pwnage folder you just created. Now, extract the redsn0w zip file to the Pwnage folder.
