Contents
Models Supported
The iPod touch 2G iPod Touch 3G iPhone 3GS need to have the signature checks disabled beforehand by having a pwned iBoot either by jailbreaking using a iBoot exploit or using the iBooty method. The S5L8900 devices can enter DFU Mode and restore with iTunes without being jailbroken. The iPhone 2G, and iPod touch 1G users cannot use sn0wbreeze to pwn 4.x since Apple no longer supports these devices anymore.
iPhone 4, iPod Touch 4, iPad 1G
sn0wbreeze would be updated to support these devices as there is a bootrom exploit for these devices.
Devices with new bootroms
sn0wbreeze would be tethered on devices with a new bootrom, the reason being is because the bootrom exploit only allows unsigned code thru USB so it requires the computer to boot the device up.

Use of xpwn
The backend of sn0wbreeze 1.x.x was xpwn, an open-source custom IPSW generator created by planetbeing in parallel with iPhone Dev Team developments of techniques and tools.sn0wbreeze 2 now custom generates IPSW without the use of ipsw.exe from xpwn.
