- jailbreaking is a simple technique where you can remove the limitations imposed by Apple corp. on there devices running the iOS operating system. It is done by use of custom kernels, devices include the iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, and 2nd Gen Apple TV.
It can access you to gain root permission on an operating system. Allowing iOS users to download additional applications, extensions, and themes that are unavailable through the official Apple App Store.
You have to know that most of the jailbreaking tools automatically install Cydia, a native iOS APT client used for finding and installing software for jailbroken iOS devices.
Today in this article we would check out how to jailbreak apple’s latest OS iOS 5.1 and ipad 3 with three Jailbreaking methods.
(A) Here for those who are running the older, A4 devices (i.e. iPad 1, iPod touch and iPhone 4), can jailbreak latest iOS 5.1 with two tools.
- Redsn0w
- Sn0wbreeze
Note:- If you unlock with GEVEY or Ultrasn0w, do not update to the stock of iOS 5.1 firmware. Skip to the latter part of this guide. You will be booting tethered quite a bit, so if you got headache to deal with constantly connecting and rebooting, wait for an untethered or downgrade to iOS 5.0.1/4.x.
Procedure:-
1. First, Download the latest version of iTunes (10.6).
2. backup your device while opening the iTunes.
3. then upgrade your firmware to iOS 5.1 from here
4. Download the latest version of Redsn0w from here (Windows/Mac)
5. Start Redsn0w, select “Jailbreak” then “Install Cydia”. Follow the steps to place your device into DFU mode.
6. Now we move on to the tethered boot process. This is the process where you will need to repeat every time your device is switched off.
7. Launch Redsn0w, select “Extras”, then”Just Boot” in order to boot your device tethered.
If you are the user of GEVEY SIM interposer or Ultrasn0w to unlock your iPhone, you will need to create a custom .iPSW, in order to preserve your baseband.
In Redsn0w, select “Extras”, then “Custom IPSW”, locate your iOS 5.1 file, and all the things Redsn0w will do automatically.
Then enter in pwned DFU mode (Extras > Pwned DFU) and restore to your custom firmware via iTunes. After that, you’ll be able to unlock with GEVEY, Ultrasn0w fixer, or Ultrasn0w (when it is available).
2. Sn0wbreeze procedure:-
Newly released Sn0wbreeze 2.9.2 is currently of a tethered nature, meaning that if the device is powered down or requires a reboot for any reason, then it will need to be connected to a computer and rebooted into a jailbroken state to continue enjoying the Cydia based benefits. But for the A4 processors devices update is limited. iPad2 and iPhone 4S has got A4 processors.
Procedure using custom firmware Sn0wbreeze:
1. Download the latest iOS 5.1 IPSW which is healthier for your device.
2. Download and launch latest version of the Sn0wbreeze software, currently version 2.9.2.
3. When you are on the main screen, click the blue arrow in the bottom right hand corner to continue.
4. Sn0wbreeze will show the option to browse for the previously downloaded firmware file. Select ‘Browse‘ and point it to the location of the iOS 5.1 IPSW.
5. If the firmware file is ok then, Sn0wbreeze will process it briefly before displaying a page which shows a firmware verification message as well as the model of the attached device.
6. Sn0wbreeze then presents the user with a number of selections. If you are planning on performing an unlock on iPhone 4 or 3GS (old basebands only), then select ‘Expert Mode‘ followed by the blue continue arrow.
7. The next screen presents a number of options for all usage types. If you a simple jailbreak and Cydia installation don’t do any thing, just select ‘Build IPSW‘ followed by clicking the continue arrow.
8. Now the turn for DFU mode, When Sn0wbreeze detects DFU mode, the device’s screen will be black and a confirmation prompt will be shown.
9. The time has come to load the custom created firmware into the iDevice. Open iTunes with the device still in DFU mode and click on the device name in the left hand side bar of iTunes.
10. Hold down SHIFT and press the restore option in the window to bring up a directory search prompt. Find the custom created IPSW and double click to select.
11. The process will be same for any official iTunes based restore and when completed, the device will be loaded with a pre-jailbroken firmware.
Note: the current available jailbreak for iOS 5.1 using the Sn0wbreeze method is of a tethered nature, requiring a tethered boot in the event of any power cycles. In the event of your device powering down or rebooting, you will need to follow these steps every time.
1. Before selecting the ‘Start‘ option launch the iBooty utility and find the relevant device from the drop down list.
2. iBooty requires DFU mode once again, which can be achieved by following the on-screen prompts after beginning the process.
3. iBooty will now boot the device into a tethered jailbreak state.
4. When completed, it will present the user with a completion message. Job done.
(B) AS we see our first process is completed now lets check out the second procedure.
For jailbreaking iOS 5.0.1 for iPhone 4S and iPad 2, by using Absinthe on Windows or Mac. A Chronic Dev Team releases Absinthe tool. The initial release is for Mac OS X computers with the Windows and Linux version just waiting to be packaged before it can be given to the world.
Procedure:
NOTE: Full back up of your device before beginning. The Absinthe program uses a new jailbreak technique, and although no problems are expected, Neither we or the development teams waive any responsibility if anything does go wrong.
Untethered jailbreak for the following devices and firmware’s:iPhone 4S running iOS 5.0, 5.0.1 (9A405 and 9A406) - iPad 2 Wi-Fi/GSM/CDMA running iOS 5.0.1
2. Connect your iPad 2 or iPhone 4S to your Mac or Windows computer using a USB cable and launch the Absinthe tool.
3. Click on ‘Jailbreak’ option on the right side of the dialog box.
4. Once your device is connected, click that button to begin the process. What looks like a restore will begin on your device with the words ‘Restoring in Progress’ being present. Don’t panic wait until the progress is completed.
5. Unlock your iPhone / iPad and look for the ‘Absinthe’ icon which will now be located on your device’s Springboard, when restore is completed.
6. Tapping the icon will momentarily launch the GreenPois0n website, before causing your device to reboot.
7. After the reboot is completed, the aforementioned Absinthe icon will now be replaced by a brown Cydia one.
NOTE: If an ‘Error establishing connection’ message at this stage, exit to your Springboard and be patient. The website servers are experiencing a tremendous increase in traffic so just keep trying to launch the Absinthe ‘app’. Alternatively, as a quick fix you can head over to the SETTINGS > GENERAL > NETWORK > VPN entry and then toggle VPN to ‘on’. This will cause an error message to be generated, which will reboot your device when dismissed. You can then launch the Absinthe icon again.
