Now, iPhone Dev team has just released new update of Redsn0w 0.9.10b3 to fix the problems that have occurred to the app that have stopped working after installing version of Redsn0w 0.9.10b2 which released yesterday.
Update #3: The b3 version of redsn0w fixes a problem where re-running redsn0w over an existing jailbreak would cause MobileSubstrate-based apps to stop running until MS was installed again. Now you can re-run the redsn0w jailbreak step without worrying about that (but still remember to de-select the “Install Cydia” option if it’s already installed).TIP: If auto-detection fails and redsn0w tells you no identifying data was found, you can always pre-select the appropriate 5.0.1 IPSW using “Extras->Select IPSW”.
Here are the redsn0w download links:
- redsn0w 0.9.10b3 for OS X
- redsn0w 0.9.10b3 for Windows (be sure to run in Administrator mode)
everytime i try to use the ipsw 5.0.1 on my iphone 4s it says that it the ipsw could not be read and is not for redsn0w with the some fingerprint error code PLEASEEEE HELP MEEEE

Same error on a 2G iPhone when selecting Jailbreak option. Same when selecting 3.1.3 or 3.1.2 firmware.
When selecting Extras – Pwned dfu it says “Sorry, that isn’t supported yet on the 1st gen device”.

pwnage tool was just released for mac for some reason, however there a windows counter part. Its called snowbreeze, however, the latest release of redsnow incorporates the functionality of pwnage tool and snowbreeze along with other features.

hi, first of all, download the latest redsnow version (0.9.10b5), then try again, if it still isnt working, you have to manually point redsnow to the ipsw. to do that, first download the iphone 3gs 5.0.1 ipsw from this link: http://appldnld.apple.com/iPhone4/041-3307.20111109.5tGhu/iPhone2,1_5.0.1_9A405_Restore.ipsw
then in redsnow go to extras -> select ipsw and select the file you just downloaded
