0.9.6b4, b5 or b6 should work. Are you sure you have the correct redsn0w version and original IPSW downloaded directly from Apple? This will be limited to a tethered jailbreak though. If you want to untether, you should instead use the latest greenpois0n to jailbreak.

I think so.. but i'm still new to this what is tethered and untethered??

Unethered is the best type of jailbreak, it means you can reboot a jailbroken iPod Touch and it will start up normally.

A tethered jailbreak, you need to connect your iPod touch to a computer and run a simple program to "help" the device reboot.

If you're on iOS 4.2.1, you can downgrade to 4.0 and use jailbreakme.com
directly from your ipod device to JB.



JB via greenposion staying @ iOS 4.2.1.

Now, there are some minor differences I've noticed with the above
2 JB's. W/greenposion, the tweak frpom Cydia "makeitmine" doesn't
seem to work - where you can name your iPod but custom boot logos
will on 4.2.1.

Just youtube for specific instructions or ask here again and I can reply.

Either stay with 3.1.2 or run 4.1 (don't bother with 4.0.x). 4.2.1 is limited to a tethered jailbreak (unless you have the 4.2 beta SHSH and can use the redsn0w jailbreak monte technique)

Use greenpois0n to jailbreak 4.1

Hey guys sorry i wasn't here while you where helping! I feel bad, cuz i jailbroked my ipod already with greenposion!!! And i have full acces to cydia :-)

Things changed, an untether exploit was developed and released for 4.2.1 - it debuted in greenpois0n (but is now also used in other jailbreak tools)
Glad you found a solution that worked for you.
