UNLOCKERS AND THOSE PRESERVING THEIR UNLOCKABLE BASEBANDS SHOULD STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS! You will very likely lose your unlockable baseband if you try to install iOS 6.
THIS JAILBREAK IS INTENDED ONLY FOR DEVELOPERS OF JAILBROKEN APPS! There are just too many broken components (Apple's official apps, 3rd-party App Store apps, Cydia apps, etc) for this to be useful to anyone but those truly looking to fix bugs in their iOS 6 jailbroken apps.
CYDIA WILL NOT BE INSTALLED because it just hasn't had time to be updated to the new SDK. The only access you'll get to the device is through SSH or afc2. If you don't know what either of those are, you shouldn't be using this developer version of redsn0w!
THIS REDSN0W WILL NOT HACTIVATE! You need to be an iOS developer with a registered UDID to get past the activation screens. PLEASE DON'T PIRATE APPLE SOFTWARE! Only registered devs with Macs can develop iOS applications,and only those people will have legitimate access to the beta IPSWs.
THIS IS A TETHERED JAILBREAK ONLY! No new exploits are being exposed with this jailbreak (it uses geohot's limera1n bootrom exploit), but that comes at a cost. You will need to use redsn0w to "Just boot" button to be able to use many things, including Cydia and Safari. If you see a white icon for Cydia, or if Cydia or Safari crash when you open them, it's because you didn't boot tethered.
You can download the latest version of RedSn0w from here. Please note that you must point RedSn0w to your IPSW manually to jailbreak.

hello USA people just to inform you that I have installed iOS 6 for my beloved iphone 4 now my slow iphone is just as fast as a new one. Thank you also I not need unlock but jail break very good take me 5 min Ty Ty ty
waited for this. Long time now now my phone seems to be much faster with ios6 took me over 1 hour to jail brek though after 10 true it worked. If you were here I would kiss you
This JB can (and has been) only be fixed by new hardware. That is why the newer devices (4S, etc.) are not and will never be supported.
This is only a tethered JB, a thing that might be ok for developers, but might not be so nice for end users who have to reboot their device on the road.
I just installed OS6 on my 3gs and it took me all of 9 minutes. Thank u division team out standing and took 3 minutes to jail break Runs 5 times as fast now I will donate to it cause thanks again
I also had trouble to install ios6 but..... If you you use FIREFOX it will install for some reason if you use just window xp or 7 it is not compatible. And just to add this is the best upgrade yet as it puts it iphone in a super fast speed
You do it by clicking the "Do you want to upgrade now?" button that appears when you plug your device in. Or you leave the automatic update feature turned on. It's not that hard to do. Besides, iOS 6 won't "erase your data" (assuming you have iCloud or back up your data). Besides that, there are now several services to back up your Cydia apps and settings as well.
You can only upgrade to iOS6 beta with a developer key. So there is NO accidential upgrade possible at all and no "do you want to upgrade" button.
Apart from that, there has NEVER been an automatic upgrade function in iTunes or iOS. But you would know that, if you knew your iOS.
Even if you "accidentally" hit the upgrade button it still gives you a warning/TOS agreement and it has to download the new firmware. Plus iTunes backs up your shit, extracts the firmware, and prepares your iPhone for upgrade. 10-15 mins to realize that you hit the upgrade button. PLENTY of time to unplug your cable from your iPhone and avoid "accidentally" upgrading.
