    iOS4 for iPhone and iPod touch is just released, and its still available only for developers right now as the official version is yet to go live. But till then you can use the firmware in your iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS and a team has successfully tried to jailbreak the iPhone 3GS with the iOS4 firmware, using the Pwnagetool tool. Still, you are doing it at your own risk, as the baseband preserving is not guaranteed fully. Btw thanks to Amit Bhiwani and tranfx for these instructions.

    NOTE:

    The bundles included in this release are not official because they were not issued by the DevTeam.
    You must be on already pwned 4.0 Beta / 3.1.3 / lower.
