How to Jailbreak Your iPhone Without Updating the Baseband (Mac) [iOS-5]

These are instructions on how to jailbreak your iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4 on iOS 5 without updating the baseband using RedSn0w for Mac. You may want to do this to preserve an unlock from a lower baseband version.

Please note this jailbreak is tethered for every device but the old bootrom iPhone 3GS which means you will need to connect your device to the computer each time you reboot. 


Step One
Create a folder on your desktop called Pwnage

Download RedSn0w 0.9.9b5 from here and place it in the Pwnage folder. Likewise, download the iOS5 firmware from here and place it in the Pwnage folder.

Extract the RedSn0w zip file by double clicking it.

Click to select Extras from the main menu.


Step Four
Click to select Custom IPSW from the Extras menu.


Step Five
Navigate to the Pwnage folder on your desktop and select the iOS 5 IPSW we downloaded then click Open.

Step Nine

Step Ten
RedSn0w will now guide you through the steps to get into DFU mode. You can find more help with DFU modehere


Hold down both the Home button and the Power button for 10 seconds.
