So last night was my last night out "stateside", as far as I know; at least in the Cleveland area. Had a great time with family & friends - from what I remember. I'm severly hung over, but, there's work to do. The latest jailbreak for Windows was released last night - so, for those of you who are already jailbroken on a previous version, here are the steps I took to "upgrade" my jailbreak:
1. Purchase & download pkgbackup from cydia
2. Run pkgbackup being sure it backs up all packages
3. Sync/backup with iTunes
4. Download & install newest version of iphone firmware (ie, 4.2.1)
5. Sync with itunes & make sure all looks good (minus jailbroken items of course)
6. Run greenp0ison - wait it out & run "loader" when it becomes available & install Cydia
7. Remove loader app once you've run Cydia (be sure to launch it, perform any upgrades/reboots)
8. Download pkgbackup
9. Run pkgbackup & restore; note - you may have to run the restore more than once to get everything back.
Be patient. There is plenty of waiting & rebooting involved. It should all go without a hitch if you just give it a few minutes to finish whatever it is doing.
