Here is the Jailbreak for the Second Generation iPod Touch



1. Download QuickFreedom



2. Open QuickFreedom



3. Click Jailbreak.



The next page will check to see if LIBUSB has been installed. If it has then you should see a green check, if it has not then click the install button to the right.

The Same applies for the the Original Firmware 2.2.1. If you don’t have the firmware already installed click Download. Then Browse to find it in your download folder. (If you don't have Original Firmware 2.2.1, download at http://www.quickpwn.com/downloads, then go to iPod Touch Firmware section and click iPod Touch 2G 2.2.1 firmware)



4. Once both have been installed click Next.



5. Check Install Installer. Check Use Custom Boot Logo (if you want a custom boot logo).



Once Checked, a window should open asking you what type of boot logo you want.



6. When Finished Click Create Firmware.



Takes about 5 minutes depending on your specs.

7. Click Next.



8. Connect your iPod to the computer and put your iPod into DFU mode. (If you don’t know how, follow the instructions by clicking DFU Instructions.) When it is DFU mode then the screen should be black.



9. Press Start Pre-Jailbreak.



Your iPod should Turn White.

A window should pop up saying, ” iPod successfully put into Pre-Jailbreak Mode. Now restore your custom firmware in iTunes. This file is located on your desktop“.

Click OK.

10. Click Next.



11. It will tell you how to restore you custom firmware. Do this by:



Opening iTunes.

Hold Shift & click Restore.

A browse window will open.

In the browse window, find the Custom Firmware.ipsw located on your desktop. Click it.

now no longer unlawful by federal regulation, yet Apple does not somewhat like it. So do only now no longer anticipate any assure help in case you brick it by twist of destiny (or harm it in any understand). confident, you're able to get each and each and each and all of the apps loose in case you want, plus some distance extra. additionally, in line with Emily L's rant: you're in a place to do plenty extra valuable than that in case you jailbreak. you basically ought to desire to be conscious of the area to look (Cydia is a phenomenal place to initiate). and you will regulate settings that actual remember, which incorporates on the spot and distinctive ideas, from the homescreen, and you're able to make the slide-to-free up exhibit interactive (as in sync with Calendar, Notes, and so on). additionally additionally: confident, you run the threat of bricking it, even even though it in all threat won't happen as quickly as you're careful. don't get application/firmware updates from Apple (app updates are ok). make particular you persist with the stairs very heavily. in case you choose to un-jailbreak it, fix it utilising iTunes.
