This is step-by-step instructions on how to perform tethered jailbreak of your iPod 4G on iOS 4.3.5 firmware using RedSn0w 0.9.8b7b for Mac OS.

Tethered jailbreak means that each time you restart your device you will need to connect it to a computer and run redsn0w.

If you have other device, here are links to our RedSn0w 0.9.8b7b iOS 4.3.5 jailbreak tutorials:

UPDATE: Please, consider reading our Jailbreak & Unlock FAQ, especially if you have questions or troubles.

Important information.

Please think first, before you do something.

If you have iOS 4.3.3 firmware - do an untethered jailbreak using one of our tutorials.

Step One

Create a folder on your desktop called Pwnage

Download RedSn0w version 0.9.8b7b or higher from here. Save it in the Pwnage folder. Likewise, download iPod 4G firmware iOS 4.3.5:

Extract the redsn0w executable from the RedSn0w zip file into the same folder by double clicking it.

Connect your iPod 4G to the computer and launch iTunes.

Select your iPod 4G from the list of devices on the left. Create a backup by right-clicking on iPod 4G name in Devices (iTunes left pane) and choosing Back Up.

Once RedSn0w has finished you will need to boot tethered your iPod 4G. You will need to do it everytime you restart.

Rerun RedSn0w and this time select Just boot tethered right now from the list of options instead of installing Cydia.

When your iPod 4G finishes rebooting (5 minutes or so) it will be jailbroken with Cydia on the SpringBoard.

Step Fourteen

Run Cydia. Let it do all the necessary updates.

To have access to the root file system of your iPod 4G (via file managers like iFunBox or iPhone Explorer) install application called afc2add in Cydia.

Step Fifteen

Do not forget to change your default password if you've installed openssh.
