A program created by iH8sn0w, that is used for early-generation devices, which include:

What is iREB?

iREB is a GUI application that uses iTunnel. It uploads 3 pwned files, so that iTunes can accept custom IPSW firmware/downgrade to lower firmwares. For S5L8900 devices, it uploads the following:

  • iBSS.MODEL.RELEASE.dfu
  • WTF.MODEL.RELEASE.dfu
  • WTF.s5l8900xall.RELEASE.dfu

iREB does NOT jailbreak, it just disables iTunes's ability to upload a patch to the ramdisk to block custom firmware made by sn0wbreeze.

Why cant it work with the later-generation devices?

Those devices such as iPhone 3GS iPhone 4 iPod Touch 3G require SHSH Blobs to upload iBSS to these devices, Also required is an exploit within the bootchain to execute unsigned code.
