Early Jailbreak Software For iPhone 4.0 Beta Is Available

Jailbreak software for the iPhone 4.0 Beta is available for download. But be warned: it could brick your precious device.

The Dev Team has released an early beta of the redsn0w 0.9.5 jailbreak software for 3G iPhones. It’s for knowledgeable, developer types only, they warn:

Please note that this beta is not meant for the average end-user. There are many things “broken” with jailbroken apps in the 4.0beta1 environment right now […] This beta redsn0w allows the developers behind those jailbroken apps (like MobileTerminal.app!) to fix their software before the general public gets iphoneOS 4.0.
Because it’s meant for JB app developers, this beta redsn0w does not perform hactivation. You’ll need a properly-registered developer UDID with Apple to get past the activation screen. For similar reasons, there is no Windows version of this beta redsn0w (since apps are developed on MacOSX). Please don’t pirate Apple software.
