How to jailbreak iOS5 on Windows with Redsn0w 0.9.9b4
Well, it’s been a few days since the Mac only release of Redsn0w 0.9.9b5. I figured the Windows version would be out within the next day so I only made a tutorial for that version of Redsn0w. However, I have decided to make a b4 tutorial for those users who only have access to Windows and would like to jailbreak on iOS5. This is a tethered jailbreak just like all other iOS5 jailbreaks. It will work on any device running iOS5 besides the iPad2 and the iPhone 4S which are not susceptible to the exploit.

How to update iPhone baseband to 06.15.00 for unlocking on iOS5
Alright, so it has come to my attention that many of our readers have an iPhone3Gs and would like to unlock their phones but are on a baseband which is not unlockable. The good news about the iPhone3Gs is that no matter what baseband you have, you can use Redsn0w to update your baseband to the iPad baseband, 06.15.00 which IS unlockable with Ultrasn0w 1.2.4 on iOS5.
*WARNING* By updating your iPhone to the 06.15.00 baseband you run a HUGE risk of losing your GPS functionality. I would say probably 9/10 iPhones that use the 06.15.00 baseband …

Important announcement for iPhone3Gs users on 06.15.00 baseband updating to iOS5
Along with the release of iOS5 compatible Ultrasn0w 1.2.4 yesterday, the iPhone-Dev team added a special note for iPhone3Gs users who have updated to the 06.15.00 iPad baseband or plan on doing so. Just like any other unlockers, 06.15.00 baseband users should NEVER update to a new firmware using a stock firmware. Even though the iPad baseband cannot be upgraded, trying to install a factory firmware may screw up the baseband.
