Step 2
Download Redsn0w 0.9.15b3 [Mac, Windows] and extract it.
Download iOS 6.0 firmware for your device (Yes, iOS 6.0. The trick is to point RedSn0w to iOS 6.0, NOT the iOS 6.1.6).

Win 7 users: Run the RedSn0w in Windows XP compatibility mode. (Right click the application > Properties > Compatibility tab > Select Run this program in Compatibility mode for Windows XP). Run the application as Administrator (Right click on application > Run as Administrator).

Step 4
Click the Extras button > Select IPSW button and then browse and select the downloaded iOS 6.0 IPSW (NOT the iOS 6.1.6) that your downloaded in Step 2. RedSn0w should identify the firmware.

Step 5
Go back to the main page of RedSn0w and click on the Jailbreak button.
Redsn0w will now start preparing the jailbreak data.

Step 6
Now select Cydia from the options and click Next button.

Step 7
Now you'll be prompted to put your device in DFU mode. Simply follow the on-screen instructions to do that. In case you face any trouble entering DFU mode, here's our detailed guide on how to put iOS device in DFU mode.

Step 8
Once your device is in DFU mode, Redsn0w will now begin uploading the new RAM disk and kernel.
Once the jailbreak process is completed, RedSn0w will notify you that this is a tethered jailbreak. Click the Ok button, close the RedSn0w and follow the further instructions to Tethered Boot your device.

How to Tether Boot

1. re-Run the Redsn0w
2. Hit Extra > Select IPSW button > browse and select the iOS 6.0 firmware.
3. Now click the Just Boot button.
4. Hit next, follow the on-screen instructions to enter into DFU mode.
5. This should boot your iPhone 3GS or iPod Touch 4G into tethered jailbreak mode.

Note: Since Redsn0w currently supports only a tethered jailbreak except for iPhone 3GS with older bootrom, you will need to install p0sixspwn from Cydia to achieve the untethered jailbreak on iPhone 3GS and iPod Touch 4G. Follow these steps to untethered jailbreak iOS 6.1.6 with p0sixpwn.

Troubleshooting

Can't find Cydia: Make sure to use the correct iOS 6.0 IPSW for your device.
Unsupported IPSW: Make sure to point RedSn0w to iOS 6.0, NOT the iOS 6.1.6.
Cydia closes immediately: Tether boot your device and it'll work.
