iPhone 3.0.1 Jailbreak stuck on “Waiting for Reboot”

After looking through the comments on the iPhone 3.0.1 jailbreak and unlock post, it looks like many people appear to be having a problem where the redsn0w program is stuck on the “Waiting for Reboot” screen.

Here is a fix for this:

  • Unplug your USB quickly and then plug it back in. Your iPhone will reboot and the jailbreaking process will continue.

Thanks to dococ for the tip!
