Seas0nPass is a new open source jailbreak tool for AppleTV 2G that jailbreaks AppleTV 2G by creating a custom firmware just like PwnageTool. In this guide you will learn how to jailbreak AppleTV 2G iOS 4.2.1 with Seas0nPass jailbreak tool. Follow the detailed step-by-step guide below to create a custom iOS 4.2.1 firmware using Seas0nPass.





Seas0nPass will jailbreak your AppleTV 2G on iOS 4.2.1, by building a custom firmware to restore with in iTunes. This is just a tethered jailbreak for the AppleTV 2G, on this firmware. This means, if you ever have to reboot your AppleTV 2G, you’ll have to connect it to your computer and use the “boot tethered” mode of Seas0npass, to get your jailbreak back.

Note : Currently the jailbreak for the 4.1.1 (iOS 4.2.1) software is ‘tethered’. A tethered jailbreak requires the AppleTV to be connected to a computer for a brief moment during startup.

Requirements :

* Download iTunes 10.1.1 and install it. (check for updates through Software Update located in Apple menu).
* Download Seas0nPass
* A micro USB cable will be required to complete the jailbreak.

2) When prompted, connect the AppleTV 2G to your computer via USB. Wait for the rapid flashing light then connect the power. Once both are connected hold both the MENU and PLAY/PAUSE buttons for 7 seconds.





3) Seas0nPass will complete the tethered boot automatically. Once complete, remove the USB cable and connect the HDMI cable.
