Will iTunes make me restore to 4.3.3 if I jailbreak?

[Dean211284]

I am on 4.2.1 jb with greenpoison. It is very jerky and respringing often causes a reboot. I want to got to 4.3.2 and jb with but told it's not super stable so am now thinking I will just stay on 4.2.1 but use redsnow instead of greenpoison. Can I just use redsnow over greenposion? If not when I restore (this is my main question) will iTunes make me update to 4.3.3 or can I restore to 4.2.1 then jb with redsnow? Thanks

itunes will make you restore to 4.3.3 but it does have the untethered jailbreak now using redsn0w

Ive never used an untethered. If my iphone runs out of battery and goes off i need to re jailbreak right? and add all my apps, tweaks, etc again everytime? Do you use an untethered? is it much hassle? Thanks so much.
Also does anyone know a link to the correct redsnow I would need for this?

Untethered means you can reboot your phone all you want without having to hook up to redsn0w and choose "Boot Tethered" to get it to boot all the way up.

Head to Dev-Team Blog to pick up the latest copy of redsn0w and follow the instructions exactly.

ahh, i use untethered all the time, i thought he ment tethered, lol. So redsnow works on 4.3.3 already without the need to hook up to my laptop everytime the battery dies? wow! that was quick.

Yes it was quick, fortunately apple didn't patch the hole. I think they thought it was more important to quickly fix the user tracking issue that was in the news everywhere.

im just downloading 4.3.3 in itunes now and will jb with redsnow soon as its done. wish me luck.....

Guessing no one knows how stable it will be? Im only doing all this as 4.2.1 with greenpoison seem realy jerky and a respring nearly always causes the phone to reboot. its doing my head in. lol

 

[maxburn]

4.3.2 was perfectly stable for many. 4.3.3 was such a minor change in location data I am not expecting it to be any different.

will bitesms, sbsettings etc still work?
