If your iDevice is not supported by Jailbreakme, there is software (DFU Helper or Last DFU) that will put your iPhone into DFU mode so that you can Jailbreak using Redsn0w with a broken home button. Or you can use the method at the link iphoneappmaster posted in the description. I used the same method about 4 years ago and it works great, but I haven't tested it lately, should work though.
Thanks SO much!!! Have a friend that needed help with this and it works well!! iHome (from Cydia) wasn't working - I've been looking for this all day!!! Thanks!
@DNA64Productions This is a great tip, thanks for sharing! Another thing you can do is wait for IOS 5 (or find a way to get your UUID registered with a developer). There's a new setting that gives you an overlay with several options such as locking, home button, and volume controls. This does not require a jailbreak either.
If you're having issues doing any of this because your home button is broken already, and your iPhone has a passcode or you can put a passcode on the device. Then all you need to do is hit Emergency Call, then the back arrow, then enter your passcode, and you'll be on the home screen. Do this anytime you need to press the home button.
OMG i think i know how to put it into DFU with out the home button there it was something with a white snowflake and black background! and you just click on your idevice anyway thank you man i luv for this video!
i jailbroke my itouch 1G w/ spirit. every time i download a new app on cydia & click on reload springboard, d itouch crashes. i only downloaded Quickdo app besides cydia. Is there any solution 2 d problem?
if you cant use your home button or want to jailbreak REALLY quick and SIMPLY, use spirit. /watch?v=wFfqwgl6ak4 Can i get a thumbs up so people can see?
thankyou so much! it worked for me. This has sort of saved me a trip to swapping for a new iphone from the apple store. I know i should get a new one but i cbb.

@gruntymanx100 First of all did you even read the post above this? And second. iPod doesn't have 4.2.8. That is a iPhone 4 Firmware.
