Massive Iphone and ipod Jailbreak tut, + Tool info[SSH][Cydia]All iOS

Welcome to my Jailbreaking tutorial. This tutorial is not one program that does it, it’s a collection of guides that will show how to jailbreak individual IOS. We will be listing a few different tutorials. I will try and update with newer software ASAP. Also older IOS for the Non Updaters.

To start with here is a few notes:

Questions & Answers

Questions and Answers

Q. Is Jailbreaking Legal?
Yes, It is. Jailbreaking is declared legal by The Library of Congress, July 26th 2010. This means that iDevice owners can now Legally Jailbreak their device to install 3rd party apps not approved by Apple. This won’t stop them making software updates stopping jailbreaks. NOTE: This will still void your warranty.

Is it safe:
Yes it is PROVIDING you follow Jailbreaking guides correctly. Anyone who makes a guide will not take reasonability for damage to your device caused by a jailbreak. Please research before installing any software. I have Jailbroken many times without issues. I have had one issue where I did not check if a package was safe and it bricked my device.

Is Cracked apps Legal?
No, these apps are not legal. Cracked apps are against piracy laws and I do not suggest using them.

If I can’t use cracked apps, what can I do?
Jailbreaking isn’t for cracked apps, although it can be done, not its main purpose. Jailbreaking can enable features that have either not been added to IOS or never will be added. Eg you can download a video from Youtube and store it to your phone.

This Jailbreak is very easy. You don’t even need a computer.
This can be done on 3G internet but I suggest doing it on wifi.

  1. On your device(Not Pc) go to JailbreakMe
  2. Slide to Jailbreak
  3. Wait for a little while, it will have a progress bar, at one point it looks like it’s no doing anything, don’t worry just leave it. Depending on your device this may be very vast or slow, on my Iphone 3gs it took about 3-5 mins.
  4. Once done, it may restart, once booted you will find cydia on you apps page after all you current apps.
  5. Done.

NOTE: Once you have jail broken and have cydia. Open cydia select user than you’re done. Refer to Cydia Tutorial for more info on cydia.

Jb IOS 4.1

For this tutorial I am not going to use limera1n due to the bug reports. Limera1n CAN be very dangerous for your device. I haven’t heard any reports from greenpois0n, although I haven’t tested it.

Requirements:
Back up with itunes
Download greenpois0n from GreenPois0n

Video:
YouTube - How To Jailbreak iOS 4.1 via greenpois0n for Mac!
I give credit to Tipb for the video.

  1. Meet requirements
  2. Open greenpois0n
  3. Follow prompts. It will basically get you into recovery mode which is hold power and home button together until screen powers off than release power but hold home until apple logo appears.
  4. Some code will run onscreen on your device
  5. Your phone will reboot. Just wait until you get to the home screen.
  6. You should have a loader app. Click it. Load it
  7. You will get and option to install cydia. Click it.
  8. Once it’s installed you will have the option to uninstall the Loader. You pick.
  9. Your phone will reboot. You’re done.

NOTE: Once you have jail broken and have cydia. Open cydia select user than you’re done. Refer to Cydia Tutorial for more info on cydia.

Jb IOS 4.2

Well, there are a few complicated tutorials for Jailbreaking IOS 4.2. Most of which you need SHSH blobs saved with cydia.
Your options are:
Limera1n (I strongly don’t recommend this)
Downgrade if possible with shsh blobs

I would recommend waiting for the latest Jailbreak by Comex. He has promised it before Christmas 2010. Didn’t happen. I will update this as soon as I know of the release. I will know within 10 hours of the public release. Last jailbreak I knew 5 mins after release.
So please keep subscribed to this forum. Visit MurQ.net for latest or www.xboxmb.com forum.

Jb IOS 4.2.1

Ok, there is a tethered jailbreak but I would avoid it. Its safe but its tethered. Refer to definitions.
But if you insist you need:

Notes:
Do not update to iOS5 Because of this tut, It MAY not work.
Better tut will be updated shortly
These Option may not work. But if its your last hope its worth a try.

The Problems Caused by it:

When Upgrading, You need a Dev Licence. This Costs $99 a thow.
If you start the inbuilt setup, And dont enable voice over before entering the setup. You may be stuck there.

If you do manager to get into the springboard, On a phone, You will not be able to use texts, data and phone. as the activation is bypassed.

On an ipad 2, The Weather icon is currently missing on Notifications center. Meaning you cant bypass and its stuck.

The Downgrade:

Requirements:

First you Need Latest itunes
SHSH Blobs saved with Tinyumberella or Cydia (Both after Jailbreak)
Download iOS for the SHSH blobs you have saved from Flelixburns:
iPod, iPhone and iPad Firmware Download

Fake Itune Restore with Cydia:

  1. Modify host files at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts by opening notepad in admin, file, open and make sure you have all files selected.
  2. Add this line at the bottom: 74.208.105.171 gs.apple.com
  3. Save

  4. Hold Shift
  5. Click Restore
  6. Search for your new ISPW
  7. Open it
  8. Your restore is now happening, Please wait.

Once finished there may be one of two outcomes. One will be Device setup Opens, and you can continue easily. Those steps a easy to follow and standard iPhone Restoring Steps.

Otherwise you may get get stuck in recovery. There is a possible fix for this. Download Tinyumberella from TinyU
Open it. On the left you will find some random numbers. Right click them and it will say exit recovery. Click it and you SHOULD exit recovery.

If this doesn’t work, another fix may be restoring with legitimate iTunes restore.

iOS 5.0/5.0.1 Jailbreak

I currently do not have a detailed Tutorial on these jailbreaks as yet, But i will leave you guys with alot of information on how to do it.

Currently, iOS 5 only has a Tethered Jailbreak (Refer to Definitions) with Redsn0w 0.9.9Beta 9. With this you can Jailbreak iOS 5.0 and iOS 5.0.1.
Please download Redsn0w From Here

Once you have downloaded, Open and click Jailbreak, You may be asked to browse to your iOS file (ipsw), This can be found at Appdata/Roaming/Apple Computer/iTunes software updates
Select iOS 5 if Jailreaking iOS 5.
Also Select iOS 5 ipsw if Jailbreaking iOS 5.0.1.
Follow the steps in the software to complete the jailbreak.

Change Log for this jailbreak can be found here:

Changelog

Update #1: Since Apple now provides Windows iTunes 10.5 for iOS5 and iCloud developers, it’s no longer the case that only Mac owners can legitimately activate their devices. We now provide a Windows version of redsn0w for those developers (only!).

Update #2: We’ve updated redsn0w to account for the sandbox changes that affected App Store apps in 5.0b3 (and it now recognizes the IPSWs for all three betas so far). If you already jailbroke 5.0b3 using the previous redsn0w, you don’t need to re-jailbreak…just use this updated version to boot tethered. Point redsn0w b3 at the b3 IPSW when jailbreaking iOS5b3.

Update #3: For the convenience of kernel hackers like @comex and @i0n1c, we have a new redsn0w 0.9.8b3 that supports a TETHERED jailbreak for iOS 4.3.4 on all devices that have 4.3.4 except the iPad2. The vast majority of people will want to stay back at 4.3.3 because that’s where the untethered jailbreak is! There are no new features in 4.3.4 — only fixes for jailbreak exploits.

Also, this is a good time to remind everyone (since we’re still seeing confusion about this): iPad2 owners with a baseband (3G or CDMA) cannot currently use saved blobs to go back to 4.3.3 once the signing window is closed. This is unlike every other device, so don’t be confused! iPad2 owners with basebands should stay away from all updates to maintain the jailbreak!

Update #4: In conjunction with iOS5 beta4 being released to iOS developers, redsn0w 0.9.8b4 is now available for jailbreak app developers (point the b4 redsn0w at the b4 IPSW). Remember, it’s a tethered jailbreak right now so you’ll need to use redsn0w to boot into a jailbroken state at each power cycle.

NOTE: It appears that by design, the OTA update that became available starting with iOS 5 beta4 will not be automatically applied to jailbroken devices. That’s a relief to those who don’t want to lose their jailbreak via OTA pushes. If you’re jailbroken, you’ll need to use the standard iTunes method to get to iOS 5 beta4.

Update #5: redsn0w has been updated to 0.9.8b5, adding support for Apple’s new iOS5 beta5 (point it directly at the beta5 IPSW). Please use this only if you’re a jailbreak app developer with a legit Apple dev account, and remember it’s a tethered jailbreak for now!

Update #6: We’ve released redsn0w 0.9.8b6 to jailbreak iOS5 beta6 (point it directly at the beta6 IPSW). Two important notes about this version: (1) Please let your device boot normally to IOS5b6 and do a clean shutdown (slide to power off) before jailbreaking. (2) Boot logos have intentionally been disabled for now, so you’ll see a black screen on tethered boots (you can re-enable logos or verbose boot with command-line options if you really want them back).

Due increased sensitivity to abrupt filesystem shutdowns in IOS5b6, it’s very important that you do a clean shutdown before running redsn0w.

Update #7: Apple updated the iPad1 iOS5b6 IPSW without changing its version number or filename, so we’re releasing redsn0w 0.9.8b7 to handle both the original and changed IPSW. We’ve also added explicit support for a tethered 4.3.5/4.2.10 jailbreak (instead of pointing at the 4.3.4/4.2.9 IPSWs) and fixed a 4.2.10 problem.

Update #7b: About 12 hours after we released redsn0w 0.9.8b7 with some improvements for iOS5b6, Apple went and released iOS5b7 (what are the odds of that?!?). Even though that redsn0w could still jailbreak iOS5b7, you needed to point it at the iOS5b6 IPSW to do so. Today’s redsn0w 0.9.8b7b lets you point redsn0w directly at the iOS5b7 IPSW instead.

We’ve also added some overall improvements for old-bootrom 3GS owners (where the 24kpwn exploit applies): on those devices, you can tell redsn0w to untether 4.3.5 and lower, or iOS5b7. Old-bootrom 3GS owners can once again choose custom logos, and/or verbose booting (for the really nerdy iPhone3GS fans out there!). And it allows 4.3.4 or 4.3.5 users to use ultrasn0w again (if they have a compatible baseband).

Last but not least, we fixed some lingering Verizon iPhone4 4.2.10 JB issues.

Have a great Labor Day weekend!

Update #7c: For those 3GS owners with the 06.15 baseband (and only those owners!), version 0.9.8b7c allows you to restore to the stock 4.3.5 IPSW, then simply run redsn0w to jailbreak. (redsn0w has a built-in fixrecovery that will get you past the Error 1015 you’ll see when you try to restore to the stock 4.3.5 IPSW with a 06.15 baseband)

Update #8: This space intentionally left blank.

Update #9: A bunch of new features!

uses DFU mode to try to automatically determine which device and FW you have
fetches pieces of public IPSWs from Apple (once).  Non-public IPSWs must be provided manually (once).  It then caches those pieces for future use.
“Just boot” is a tethered boot.  Uses whatever “Preferences” you’ve set for boot logo and kernel boot-args
“Pwned DFU” puts your device in a pwned DFU state for some of the iTunes stuff detailed below
“Recovery fix” gets past 1015 types of errors (when baseband portion of restore fails).  Should work on iOS5 beta too
“Select IPSW” is for picking non-public IPSWs, or overriding auto-detection
“SHSH blobs” has a bunch of options…
“Fetch” - fetch current PARTIAL blobs on device.  Should complete in under 10 or 15 seconds.  Puts the set of PARTIAL of blobs on your computer as a plist.  Checks if Cydia already has a full set for this device and build.  If not, it submits this PARTIAL set and returns Cydia’s acknowledgement or rejection
“Verify”  - cryptographically verifies existing blob files from either redsn0w, TinyUmbrella, or Cydia server.  You can select a whole bunch of blobs to verify at once if you want (like the TinyUmbrella directory)
“Submit”  - both verifies and submits one or more blob files to Cydia.  This lets you copy your entire TinyUmbrella cache of blobs up to the Cydia server
“Query” - queries the Cydia server for all available FULL or PARTIAL blobs for a given set of ECIDs
“Stitch” - stitches either FULL or PARTIAL blobs to a STOCK or CUSTOM IPSW

Stitching is NOT yet supported on iPhones!  Need to work out the baseband part of the restore process.
FULL blobs stitched to a STOCK IPSW gives you a completely self-contained signed IPSW that iTunes will accept without any tricks (no need to go into pwned DFU mode, no need to start TinyUmbrella TSS server, no need to redirect to Cydia server for blobs)
PARTIAL blobs stitched to any IPSW requires you to go into pwned DFU mode before running iTunes.  No need to start TU or use Cydia though.
Stitching either FULL or PARTIAL blobs to a CUSTOM IPSW also requires a pwned DFU start before iTunes restores.  No need to start TU or use Cydia though.
Will eventually support fetching the blobs directly from Cydia instead of a file on your computer

Update #10: Version 0.9.9b2 has been released with fixes and enhancements related to: Verizon iPhone4 firmware detection, Fix Recovery, Stitching, and blob processing. If you encountered a problem with any of these in the b1 version, please try b2 and leave any feedback below!

Update #11: redsn0w has been updated to 0.9.9b3 to auto-detect iOS5 GM firmware. Remember: it’s still tethered for all devices except for iPhone 3GS with old bootrom. If you don’t use redsn0w to “Just boot” at power up, all jailbreak apps (and even some native ones like MobileSafari) will fail to launch.

If you already jailbroke the GM by pointing an older redsn0w at the beta7 IPSW, there’s no need to re-run the full jailbreak step again…just use this newer one to make the tethered boot easier :smile:

Update #11a: We’ve replaced the Windows version of 0.9.9b3 with 0.9.9b3a. The new version fixes a caching bug that affected only Windows users — point it one more time at your iOS5GM IPSW, and from then on you won’t have to point at it again.

As a special bonus to Windows users, we’ve made it so that if you make a copy of redsn0w.exe and name it something like “justboot.exe” (anything with the word “boot” in it), it will start up in “Just Boot tethered” mode. That way you don’t have to click on any buttons at all to boot tethered! :smile:

Update #12: For those of you who experiment with your own custom ramdisks using the -r command-line option, version 0.9.9b4 adds auto-detection support for iOS5. This is needed because iOS4 and iOS5 treat the root partition differently (it’s encrypted in iOS5). redsn0w will now upload the correct iOS5 kernel by itself, but it’s up to your own launchd to determine if it needs to mount using the old or new partition scheme.

redsn0w now also accepts both native and img3-encapsulated versions of files you provide via the -r, -k, and -d command-line options (do redsn0w -h to show all the available options).

Update #13: With today’s official iOS5 release, redsn0w has been updated to 0.9.9b5 to include the public URLs for the IPSW files. This way, first-time iOS5 jailbreakers don’t need to supply the IPSW file manually. It’s still a tethered jailbreak on all except the old-bootrom iPhone3GS, and it doesn’t apply to iPad2 or the upcoming iPhone4S.

Because the jailbreak is currently only tethered for most devices, we’re not going to release a new PwnageTool yet. Instead, we’ve decided to build some of PwnageTool’s functionality into redsn0w (since you need redsn0w to “Just boot tethered” on every power cycle anyway). The new “Custom IPSW” button on the Extras screen will create a custom IPSW without the baseband update for 4.3.3 or 5.0gm (iPhone3GS and iPhone4 only, for now). Remember to NOT accidentally restore to the stock IPSW after you create the custom one! The custom one begins with NO_BB_ (for “no baseband”). On Mac iTunes, you select an IPSW by holding down the Option key while clicking “Restore”.

You must enter “Pwned DFU” mode before trying to use the NO_BB_ IPSW with iTunes (and your hosts file cannot be pointing to Cydia’s servers due to the new blob nonce mechanism they’re using in iOS5).

Version 0.9.9b5 is available only for Mac for now, until we can do more testing on the Windows version of “Custom IPSW”.

We’re currently working on a normal compatibility update for existing ultrasn0w unlockers. After that we’ll try to fix the iBooks issue on jailbroken iOS5.

Update #14: We’ve released version 0.9.9b6 of redsn0w, with both a functional fix and cosmetic fix for iOS5 jailbreakers. For iPhone3GS owners with the 06.15 baseband, this redsn0w eliminates the network crash you saw when using Location Services in iOS5 (in fact, you don’t even need to disable Location Services anymore during the initial setup). The cosmetic fix is to the visual countdown you see when going into DFU mode.

It’s okay to re-run this redsn0w over an existing device jailbroken at iOS5. Just choose “Jailbreak” again and de-select Cydia (in other words, all the checkboxes will be unchecked). If you are lucky enough to have an old-bootrom iPhone3GS, please pre-select the IPSW first (redsn0w can’t yet auto-detect the FW version of your old-bootrom 3GS if it’s already been jailbroken).

Update #15: After some feedback on reddit, we’ve decided to make the initial jailbreak as quick as possible by no longer “stashing” the applications by default during the redsn0w run. This reduces the time to actually perform the jailbreak from 210 seconds to 80 seconds (60 percent!). However, you make up for much of that the first time you launch Cydia, which will then want to stash the applications. You can choose whether you want redsn0w or Cydia to stash in the Preferences pane.

Update #16: redsn0w version 0.9.9b8 will natively recognize the 5.0.1 beta that Apple let developers start testing this week (so you don’t have to play the “point at 5.0 IPSW” trick). Because the IPSW isn’t public, you’ll still need to provide it once to redsn0w (at which point it will cache all the important pieces so you don’t need to select it again).

For those 3GS and i4 users who preserve their baseband, the Mac version can also produce the NO_BB_* custom IPSWs for 5.0.1. (But please note that ultrasn0w doesn’t get updated for betas like this.)

Update #17: The holiday season is almost here (Happy Holidays!) so we realize everyone is busy (especially @pod2g!). And even though we always recommend that jailbreakers stay where they are until a new untethered JB comes out, that’s not always possible. So we’ve updated redsn0w for those who may have found themselves at iOS 5.0.1, and added some other useful features too:

native support for 5.0.1 (no need to point redsn0w at 5.0 IPSW or use command-line args).  Support automatically extends to all of redsn0w’s various functions: “Jailbreak”, “Just boot”, “Fetch blobs”, “Stitch blobs”, “Recovery Fix”
iBooks fixed in 5.0 and 5.0.1.  This is a targeted fix that doesn’t remove entire sandbox mechanism.  5.x users already using redsn0w “Just Boot” can just use the new version without redoing entire jailbreak again
3GS old-bootrom owners can now create custom IPSWs without blobs
ultrasn0w compatability update (i.e. same baseband requirements) for 5.0.1 will be available on Cydia Monday
support for newer 8GB iPhone4 (which until now had problems with “Fetch blobs”).  Thanks to @JKjeepnJeff for loaning us one of these newer i4 units for testing!
allows Windows users (not just OS X users) to use the “Custom” button to create IPSWs without baseband updates.  (Update: please use 0.9.9b9b for this!)
accommodates APTickets in 5.x (until next Apple countermove).  APTickets are crypto-verified before submitting to Cydia, just like the main blobs.  Cydia server support for sending back the APTickets is upcoming.  For now, use stitched IPSWs for 5.x.  Due to APTickets, stitched 5.x IPSWs now require user to start in “Pwned DFU” mode
Support added for stitching 4.x blobs to iPad2-GSM IPSWs.  Similar to @notcom’s TinyCFW but doesn’t require lots of RAM or a TSS-assisted restore. Won’t work for iPad2 5.x blobs (or iPhone4S at all) until a bootrom-level exploit is out
top line now shows whether (and where) a redsn0w update is available, or if the version being run is the latest.  Uses DNS TXT record to alleviate any concerns about snooping
no 5.1 beta support at this time (major apps like Cydia are not yet compatible)
@pod2g has been doing a great job porting his 5.x untether…check his blog for updates!
Owners of newer 3GS iPhones must not flash the iPad baseband.  The iPad baseband will not work on 3GS iPhones built later than 2011 week 35.  You have a week 35 or later device if your serial # starts with xx135.

Update #17b: Version 0.9.9b9b enables the “Custom” button for Windows users, and make the 3GS week 35 warning a more explicit part of the process.
Update #17c: For those Windows users encountering launch errors due to the self-update check, please use this version instead for now.
Update #17d: iPhone3GS owners in our comments section below noticed a problem with the untethered jailbreak available for the old-bootrom 3GS. We’ve corrected that problem in 0.9.9b9d. If you have an old-bootrom 3GS and have already used last night’s redsn0w on it, you can re-run it again without losing anything. Just use this new version, go to Extras->IPSW and manually select the 5.0.1 IPSW, then go back and Jailbreak it again (but you can uncheck Cydia because it’s already installed).

This is still a tethered jailbreak for all except old-bootrom 3GS users.

Recovery Mode loop/Stuck Fix
  1. Download the iRecovery files Here
  2. (Mac users please skip to step 2, this step is for Windows users only)
    Install the libusb first. If you are on Windows 7 or Vista you need to run libUSB in Windows XP SP2 compatibility mode:
  • Right click on libusb exe file > Properties > Compatibility. Check mark the “Run this program in compatibility mode” box and select “Windows XP (Service Pack2)”from the drop down list.
    
    Right click again and select “Run as “Administrator”. Install libUSB.

    setenv auto-boot true
    saveenv
    /exit

  3. Now reboot your iPhone/iPod Touch by holding home + power/sleep for 10 seconds.

Cydia

When you install cydia, you need to learn a few basics.
Firstly, when you start up cydia for the first time you need to make a selection. There will be developer coder and user. For the people who will be reading this, select user. This will not show just a few little things. Those things can mess up your device with incorrect use.
To add a source, go to the manage tabs at the bottom. There will be packages, sources and another selection. Select sources, at the top there will be two buttons, Manage and edit. Hit edit. Than Add. Type in a repo like BigBoss Cydia Repository | iPhone News, Help and Guides or http://apt.modmyi.com.

To download an app, hit the search tab, type in a name, for this we will download Makeitmine. This will allow you to change the carrier name. Type makeitmine, when you find your package press it. Once it opens hit install.

Please refer to Packages tutorial for suggested and handy apps to install.

Packages

Some packages I suggest from cydia:

  • MakeitMine
    o This package allows you to change you carrier, Eg AT&T or Optus
  • Mobile terminal
    o This allows you to change some settings and run scripts. Needed for changing root passwords.
    Popular apps:
  • Installous
    o This app allows you to download cracked apps WARNING: High piracy.
  • You tube downloader
    o mxtube is one, its ok but not great, Best one is Yourtube 2 from Modmyi. Cracked can be found at repo : Http://cydia.myrepospace.com/hacktor/ but i suggest buying it. for only 2 bucks
    More to come.
iTunes not discovering iDevice

If your Itunes is not picking up your iDevice after jailbreaking, this is a possible fix.

  1. Close Itunes, Maybe Reboot but this is optional
  2. Restart and Go to My Computer
  3. Navigate to C:/ Drive
  4. Open Windows Folder
  5. Open System32 - You should now be at C:/Windows/System32
  6. Double Click/Open services.msc
  7. Look for Apple Mobile Device
  8. Right click and Select Start

If start is not able to be click, try stop, Once it has stopped, Click Start

This is not a sure fire fix, but works alot of the time.

SSH

How to SSH into iDevice.

Why do you ssh?
Well ssh is the ability to gain access to root and system files. Without ssh there is no jailbreak. SSH isn’t always needed tho, when you come across something you need it for, the tut is here.

Is it hard?
No its not. It may sound hard to some Newbs but it isn’t really.

Ok let’s get started.
Requirements:
Your wifi ip address
WinSCP - WinSCP :: Free SFTP and FTP client for Windows
OpenSSH from cydia

This is a Wifi Method:

  1. Finding you wifi:
    a. Go to Settings App
    b. Go to Wifi Connection
    c. Connect to wifi
    d. Click the blue arrow
    e. Locate the number that looks something like:
    i. 192.168.1.1
    ii. 10.0.0.2
    f. Note that number
  2. Install WinSCP/Open
  3. Enter these details:
    a. Hostname:
    i. Ip Adress from step 1E
    b. Username
    i. Root
    c. Password
    i. alpine(Default)
    ii. If you changed it in the Mobileterminal root password tut it will be what ever the new password is.
    d. Connect save if you wish.
    Done
    Wired Method:
  4. Download i-funbox
    a. i-FunBox | File Manager, Browser, Explorer, Transfer Tool for iPhone, iPad & iPod Touch via USB
  5. Install/Open
  6. Select you Device
  7. Go to “Raw File System”
  8. Done
    NOTE: Do not fiddle with files if you do not know what to do.

Siri

Siri

In October 2011, Apple announced its new feature to the iPhone 4s called Siri. Siri is a digital personal assistant catering to your every need.

Jailbreakers and developers all over the world rose to the chalange to make this feature possible to all iDevice owners after apple restricted it to the iPhone 4S.
Since than, many attempts to Port siri have been made, Most failing. One developer Made and released a version of Siri Dubbed H1Siri, Although, many users could not use it due to the massive server demand.
In December 2011, Apple released a iOS version 5.0.1R2 for the iPhone 4S and for an unknown reason, left the Ram disks unencrypted, making the siri port legal.
On the 24th of December, 2011, A developer called @mrajstech on Twitter announced he has made a Automated program to grab siri keys for iPhone 4 Users. This is hopefully going to be released by New years. To check the status of this Project, Follow @joelcasey on twitter for more information.

The People behind it

A list and brief description of the people behind jailbreaking

Releases:
JailbreakMe
Spirit

Comex is well known for his Jailbreakme.com website. Its a Untethered Jailbreak which used the PDF exploit. This jailbreak did not require a PC or Mac at all.
Comex was also the first to release a jailbreak for the iPad 2. Apple has since Hired Comex to “Discover and Patch vulnerabilities in iOS”, But Most belive that he was hired out of embarrassment of Apple.

For Instant updates on Jailbreaking Information, Please Follow me on Twitter: @Joelcasey[/size]

My Ultimate Goal for this Thread is to provide good, all in one information. My Secondary Objective is to gain a iOS/Apple Computer/iDevice section under the general discussion area/Tech Section

Hope this helps the Xboxmb community. I think its hours well spent of my time.

I thought we do not post these stuff?

So thanks bro

What do you mean? its not against any rules, its in general disscusion not xbox modding??
AND ITS NOT ILLEGAL.

cheers.
hope you like. Reffer to sig for goals.

https://www.wemod.com/forum/77-tech-section/11018-[tut]-how-jailbreak-unlock-all-idevices-4-1-extras.html

Please read both guides again. There 2 completly different guides. My guide is an alround guide, His is for ios 4.1. i have already had a discussion on this before. And yes he did a nice tut.

There was a similar post reagrding 4.2.1 that was closed. Mine is standing strictly for being the current unteathered Jailbreak, and most users have no use for 3.X.X or some apps no longer work on 3.X.X.

Don’t get me wrong, you made a very nice tutorial, but most people are not interested in teathered jailbreaks, especially if the author of the thread is recommending that they avoid it.

EDIT: Also, the teathered jailbreaking of iOS 4.2.1 is for Mac users only, so it kills the chances of a large number of users.

Ok a few things:
Why make a jb tut at all than? out of the 50Millioun idevices and counting out there, there is less than 1 mill jailbroken, meaning “Most users arnt interested in it”.

second:
4.2.1 tethered is NOT mac only. i did on windows.

third:
Some people need tethered or not, there phone is unsupported by their carrier. meaning they need a jb to fix that.

People need to either read things or do their research before they post.

Sometimes i just think its pointless contributing to the community. what happened to xboxmb. spetember 2010 was the best, everyone weas supportive no matter what.

Flames ahoy captain!

I realize most users are not interested, hince why my post was very specific. 80% of the people looking into JB’s are not fully aware of the capabilities of what they could do with it. I know what you can do or what needs to be done, This isn’t my first rodeo.

Regardless, I’m not being unsuportive in any manor, I am just stating what has already been stated and argued previously.

Ok, sorry if i came accross as a flame. didnt mean it to be that.
just asking for people to read when they comment. those tuts are great, im not saying their useless. but. this tut has info about most os.

and lots of people still use ios 3. i know atleast 5 people i know in person. i have 2 ios 3 devices myself. 2 ios 4.2.
thanks for your input anyways

who cares if its been posted i like it nice share buddy

Thankyou. I put a bit of effort into it.
Why He get banned?!?!

Tinyumberlla comming soon.

Very nice post good job!!!

Nice and organized thread :smiley:

Compared to the other tut. Which is a sticky. I think this is worth a sticky:) anyone agree???
