How to Jailbreak the latest iOS 5.1.1 software (Untethered!)

MY GUIDE!

First of all compatible devices are:

- iPad3 (WiFi/CDMA/Global)
- iPad2 (WiFi/CDMA/GSM)
- iPad1
- iPhone 4S
- iPhone 4 (GSM), iPhone 4 (CDMA)
- iPhone 3GS
- iPod 4G
- iPod 3G

The program you need to jailbreak your device is called Absynthe 2.0.4 and can be downloaded from here:
[Windows Version] - [Mac Version]

What does untethered mean? - Well it simply means that the phone operates as normal where hackers have completely cracked the tethered version of the jailbreak where if users lost power to their phones for what ever reason, they would have needed to plug the iphone into the computer to reboot it. This is now, not the case! The iPhone will operate as normal with the latest software!

OK, so I've downloaded the above program - what do I do now?

Simple, once it's downloaded to the designated file you save your downloads in, double click the file, and Extract it, leave the box checked that says "View after extraction"

Once that has extracted you should be able to see the green "greenpoison" logo icon - click that to run the program. A box will open up that has the word "Jailbreak" greyed out - ready to click. Well, once you have connected your iphone or other compatible idevice to your computer, it will un-grey - and you will now be able to click the "Jailbreak" button.

This is one of the simplest jailbreak processes I can remember - It's all just a ONE-CLICK jailbreak. all you do is wait whilst the sytem jailbreaks your device - you will notice a series of reboots on your phone during your process - this is normal.

NOTE: there is a point along the jailbreak where the progress bar seems to pause and freeze for a minute or two, This is normal as well - so please do not disconnect your device during the process! BE PATIENT!

It will inform you when the jailbreak process is complete - you can then disconnect your device, and you will notice then - that a brown CYDIA package icon app on your homes screen! BINGO! you now have a jailbroken iPhone or device on iOS 5.1.1 which is fully untethered!

NOTE: ALWAYS make a backup of your iphone before updating to iOS 5.1.1 - I prefer to backup directly from my iPhone using iCloud, but that's up to you if you prefer to back up to your PC with iTunes.

If you are already running a jailbroken iDevice on another version of iOS, then you can backup your device, update to 5.1.1 then - restore from the backup to re-set all your previous settings. (although the Jailbreak tweaks will all be wiped off when updating to 5.1.1 the settings for those tweaks will not! - so as you re-install all your favourite JB tweaks using this new method, you will find that the settings already saved will revert all the new installed JB tweaks back to their original settings!)

Any questions - Just ask.

What does a jailbroken phone do? Will it work on my nokia3210?

Try it you moaning old fart!

Right I have the new ipad 3 will this invalidate the warranty if it all goes tits up?

Am I right in thinking I can just restore original settings in any event?

You can Jailbreak your device, and if you want to remove the jailbreak at any point - you just do an itunes restore. Once that's done - nobody can ever tell its been jailbroken before! (so the answer is no, it won't invalidate your warranty - on the same note, if you took it into an apple shop with the jailbreak on - they'll just say they can't touch it! [until you remove the JB])

I wanted to do this so that I could unlock my 3gs and avoid paying o2 but it would seem that my baseband isn't supported.

We havent been able to unlock phones since about iOS 4.0.1 - all basebands after that over a year ago have been unlockable - without using snowbreeze to preserve baseband! (although amateurs are not going to know about this!)

Therefore, If you want it unlocked - after an 02 contract expires its FREE to unlock - during contract (after 3 months) is about £15 - and £20 for PAYG customers.

You can unlock your iphone3GS from Network lock using Remote unlocking method. Which is the safe and secure method to unlock iPhone. You can get this service from ClassicUnlocking.com here you need to specify your country, IMEI number of your iPhone. Here they unlock your iPhone using latest versions of iTunes. This is permanent unlocking solution. Both upgrading and downgrading will not lock your iPhone again.

My friend always used to do this when he found phones instead of giving them back. He'd then sell them.

The karma was great though, he lost his and the guy didn't give it back

What about iPhone 5? Not possible is it?
