How to jailbreak iOS 6.0.1 on iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, or iPod touch 4th generation using RedSn0w

Apple has released iOS 6.0.1 and it is already available for download. Although it just came out you can jailbreak iOS 6.0.1 using RedSn0w. Remember iOS 6.0.1 is an incremental update and does not bring any new features to iOS devices. If you haven’t updated to iOS 6.0.1 then we would recommend that you stay on the iOS version you are using right now.

However if you have already upgraded to iOS 6.0.1 or you have to upgrade due to some bug you are facing on current version of iOS you can upgrade and then tethered jailbreak it using the method I am going to show you in this post. This jailbreak solution of iOS 6.0.1 only works for A4 devices including iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and iPod touch 4th generation. A5 devices including iPhone 4S or newer, iPad 2 or new, and iPod touch 5th generation are not supported. This guide for is for Mac as well as Windows users.

Remember: This is a tethered jailbreak, that means you will need to connect your iOS device to RedSn0w on every reboot. Also, if you need to unlock your iPhone in order to use it – stay away from iOS 6.0.1 and this guide. – [See update below]
