The Absinthe untethered jailbreak for A5 devices (iPad 2 and iPhone 4S) on iOS 5.0.1 has just been updated to version 0.4 which brings various fixes for both Mac OS X and Windows users.

As most of you know, Greenpois0n Absinthe has been released few weeks ago to bring the first jailbreak for Apple’s newly released handset, the iPhone 4S. Moreover, it could finally jailbreak Apple’s iPad 2.

Version 0.4

~~~~~~~~~~~

added consistency check on startup to make sure required files are in place

Windows: fixed bug in payload generator that might cause a crash

So you don’t need to re-jailbreak your device. This only improves the way of jailbreaking and fixes some issues that met users jailbreaking their devices.

HELP

  • Vlassistria

    Hi I wonder if my device 4s will slow down if I jailbreak it?

  • Iphonehelp

    Before iOS 5, my iPhone 4 with its 4.3.3 iOS was slow after I jailbroke it. Now with its 5 it’s jailbroken and has the exact same speed as it was before, and your 4s has an A5 processor and iOS 5 so I wouldn’t expect it to slow down, if it did then the problem is from your device.
    How do I know?

  • Ryanhoops

    It was on the downloading part of the jailbreak, and my phone fell and unplugged from it. Now every time i try and jailbreak it, it says ” you have previously tried to jailbreak your phone and it failed, we will fix this. goes through another loading phase and says ” recovery completed. If you want to retry jailbreaking your phone unplug, and plug it back in. I do, but it just keeps repeating that process. help?
