iPhone 3gs 4.0.2 Need help!

[alaskan]

I've tried several of the guides here on jailbreaking my iPhone 3gs running 4.0.2 but I've been unsuccessful. I heard that limera1n would work with 4.0.2, but when I downloaded it and ran it, no app showed up.


Would I be better off updating to 4.1 and then jailbreaking? If so, how do I go about downloading to 4.1 and not having to update to 4.2 then downgrade?

If you do not need an unlock, you can download the 4.1 ipsw from here :
iClarified - iPhone - How to Jailbreak Using a Custom Restore IPSW and RedSn0w (Windows)
If apple is still signing 4.1, then you can just shift + restore to stock 4.1 ipsw.
You can jailbreak it with Limera1n or GreenPoison.
