Redsn0w 0.9.5 has just been updated for Windows and Mac which allows you to jailbreak iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G on iOS 4 (formerly iPhone OS 4). Among the various new features, iPhone Dev Team is now providing better support for iOS 4 and in particular the jailbreak tool Redsn0w 0.9.5 now allow iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G users to activate some functions intentionally blocked by Apple (as shown in screenshot).
Among these are:
- Ability to enable multitasking native
- Ability to change the background of the springboard
- Possibility of activating the percentage of battery
The latest redsn0w beta lets you individually select whether multitasking and homescreen wallpaper are enabled. It also adds battery percentage and verbose boot mode options. (Verbose boot shows you the kernel messages during boot)
Note: Once you enable battery percentage, you actually toggle it off and on via Settings→General→Usage.
This is particularly useful and avoid lengthy procedures manual changes via Cydia or SSH.
