    So I gave a demo of this application yesterday. This is probably going to be the last needed jailbreak tool/utility or boot tool/utility needed for redsn0w in it's current form. That isn't just me talking, that's the testers who have used it first hand.

    Consider this a public beta, if you don't like betas, don't use this until it's at a 1.0 file version. Right now it's at .98.

    Here is a download link, I will be back shortly to answer questions and to respond to bug reports. This should be fairly stable so I don't expect too many bugs :D

    v0.98 - http://www.sendspace.com/file/g0d0s7
    v.0.98.5 - http://www.sendspace.com/file/z2y4vc
    V.0.99 - http://www.sendspace.com/file/yeg4ax

    Requirements are .NET framework 2.0, 2.1.1 and 2.2.1 IPSWs (links were removed, look somewhere else) and of course, libusb

    Changelog:

    v0.96
    *Added support for premade IPSWs
    *Fixed UI Bug with 2.1.1 IPSW Path

    v0.97
    *Added fixes for timer error when the counter changes
    *Added fix for iPod not completing boot and iPod not completing "pre-restore patching"
    *Addressed device status detection, .97 can detect HOW your device is connected
    *Addressed multithreading issue, when the app is closed, child sub-processes are killed
    *Added some UI tweaks for when the iPod is booted.
    *More automation added, now there is a true one-click boot.
    *Fixed bug with Auto-discovery of IPSW Files

    v0.98
    *Added patch for jailbreaking, now you may proceed to pre-patching and restoring step
    *Added statically linked redj0hnny binary, no more need for libusb (In testing)
    *Added various UI Fixes to repair glitches

    V0.98.5
    *Various fixes, DFU timer patches, awaiting feedback [FAILED]

    V0.99
    *Fixed various bugs that made the app not want to run properly, awaiting feedback.

    Please do not be disheartened if something doesn't work as expected. I will fix it. In most cases, I can fix it really fast and have a new build within 30min or an hour. THIS IS BETA lol

    Thanks for trying it out though :)

    You have to supply both firmwares... they are required to jailbreak and boot in the future.
