Here are some important points to note before you proceed.- This guide is meant for iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPod touch 4G users.
- Warning: If you depend on Ultrasn0w to unlock your iPhone, then DO NOT update to iOS 6.1.3.

- Step 11: You will be notified once the jailbreaking process is complete. Click on the Ok and then Quit button to exit the application.
- Step 12: The rest of the process will take place on your iOS device, wait for it to complete. Your iOS device will reboot once again (which could take approximately 5 minutes). You will now see the Home screen on your iOS device, but Cydia would still be missing, that’s because you still need to tether boot your iOS device using Redsn0w. So follow the steps mentioned below.

- Step 20: Wait for the process to complete, once it is complete, you should see the Lock screen on your iOS device.
Note: Since Redsn0w currently supports only a tethered jailbreak except for iPhone 3GS with older bootrom, you will need to follow steps 13 to Steps 20, each time you reboot your iPhone or iPod touch to be able to use the jailbreak apps like Cydia.
Troubleshooting Tips:
1. Can’t find Cydia:2. Unsupported IPSW:If you can’t find Cydia on your iPhone’s home screen after following steps 1 to 20 then it looks like you’ve used an incorrect iOS 6.0 firmware file. Please ensure you download the correct iOS 6.0 firmware file for your iPhone model. Check this link if you need any help in identifying which iOS firmware file to download for your iPhone model.
If you get an error message informing you that the IPSW is not supported by this version of Redsn0w, then it means you’ve downloaded iOS 6.1.3 firmware file in step 2 instead of iOS 6.0 firmware file. Please download iOS 6.0 firmware file to jailbreak your iOS device running on iOS 6.1.3.3. Cydia closes immediately:
If Cydia closes immediately when you try to launch it, it means that you haven’t tethered boot your device. Follow steps 13-20 mentioned above to solve this issue.
