iPhone to OS 4.0.2

[ShamiLoverGlipGlops]

iPhone Dev Team noted that there will be no jailbreak for iOS 4.0.2 (iPhone/iPod) or iOS 3.2.2 (iPad) ? JailbreakMe 2.0 Star was a huge success and it was able to jailbreak mostly all firmwares with a PDF exploit found in MobileSafari, but Apple fixed that quickly on iOS 4.0.2/3.2.2.

Now it?s a few weeks later, and Apple has closed the jailbreakme.com hole. They?re shipping devices with FW 4.0.2/3.2.2, impervious to this particular jailbreak. So now, people will begin to ask: will there be a jailbreak for devices that shipped with 4.0.2/3.2.2, out of the box?
No, there won?t be. FW 4.0.2/3.2.2 was *only* released to fix the jailbreakme hole. With FW 4.1 still in its beta stages, it makes no sense to escalate the ?cat & mouse? with Apple
for FW updates that only fix the jailbreak holes. To quote WOPR, ?the only winning move is not to play?.

Those of you who backed up your SHSH Blobs for 4.0/4.0.1/3.2.1 ? you?re safe and you?ll always be able to use JailbreakMe 2.0.

I know not to update to 4.0.2

Used the jailbreakme hole to jailbreak my iPod and my sister's so it doesn't really bother me.

I have done an update to my iPhone and that is the reason I do not want anyone to really do this mistake.

I have not even saved the SHSH files. :crying

Really missing GTA China Town & Fifa 10 on iPhone.

I have an iPod Touch 3G, with 4.0.2. Is there any way I can jailbreak it? Is it possible for me to downgrade the firmware to 4.0.0 or maybe 3.1.2?

I am using iOS 4.0.2 right now and I have jailbroken it. There is a software called redsnow or something (I think blazerix from this forum helped me with it). After jailbreaking, its so cool because now I can do multitasking and I also am able to use the homescreen wallpapers which looks really cool.

@ Sai you did it your self?

 

[Abhas]

I don't have the SHSH blobs from the previous firmware. Will it still work?

 

[ShamiLoverGlipGlops]

To downgrade you need shsh files

Yeah. A member from this forum 'blazerix' sent me some basic instructions on how to do it, and I did it myself.
