Jailbreak 5.0.1 Untethered On iPhone 4, 3GS, iPad 1, iPod Touch With Redsn0w 0.9.10b1 (VIDEO)

by Ahmed Omar on December 27, 2011

After showing the first method to jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 untethered using a jailbreak tweak from Cydia, now we’re showing how to do an iOS 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak directly from your PC or Mac using Redsn0w 0.9.10b1 brought to you by the iPhone Dev Team.

Jailbreak 5.0.1 untethered

iOS 5.0.1 Untethered Jailbreak Supported Devices

  • iPhone 4 (GSM – CDMA)
  • iPhone 3GS
  • iPod touch 4G
  • iPod touch 3G
  • iPad 1

Notes:

  • If you have one of those devices and are not on 5.0.1 yet, update now!  The SHSH window is still open for 5.0.1  If you unlock via ultrasn0w or gevey, make sure you only get to 5.0.1 via a custom IPSW!    Once you’re at 5.0.1, use the latest redsn0w 0.9.10 to both jailbreak and untether.
  • If you’re already at 5.0.1 with a tethered jailbreak, you have two choices: either run redsn0w 0.9.10 over your current jailbreak (deselect “Install Cydia” if you do that), or install the Cydia package prepared by the chronic devteam.  The patches are the same regardless of which you choose.
  • Some of you are using a hybrid 5.0/5.0.1 configuration.  If so, do not attempt to install this untether over that setup!  You will most likely get into a reboot cycle.  Do a sync and fresh restore to 5.0.1 then install the jailbreak + untether.

Jailbreak 5.0.1 Untethered iPhone 4, 3GS, iPod Touch 4G, 3G, iPad 1

Downloads

1. Download Redsn0w 0.9.10b1 ( – ).
2. Download iOS 5.0.1 stock firmware from here.
3. Download iTunes from here.

Steps

STEP 1: Backup your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch and restore it using the iOS 5.0.1 IPSW file downloaded above.

STEP 2: Open Redsn0w you already downloaded, select “Extras” then “Select IPSW” and browse for the iOS 5.0.1 IPSW file.

Redsn0w 0.9.10b1

STEP 3: Now click on “Jailbreak” then “Install Cydia”.

Redsn0w 0.9.10b1

STEP 4: You’ll need to follow the on-screen instructions to get your device into DFU mode (for newbies, follow our guide posted here).

STEP 5: Once done, your device will be rebooted and you’ll get a full untethered jailbreak on iOS 5.0.1.

Our video guide:

For those who already have tethered jailbreak on their devices, you can run a jailbreak tweak from Cydia. Follow our guide posted here to do so.

    Whats the meaning of hybrid 5.0/5.0.1 configuration???

  • Daniel A Bergh

    One Question!
    If i already have 5.0.1 installed (No earlier jailbreak installed) with apps, games & music etc. Do i have to restore the device to a blank/restored 5.0.1 install or could i just jailbreak the device as it is ?

    Thanks

  • Iannawfal

  • Lam9998787

    Use a custom ipsw if you need to preserve the baseband. This will allow you to unlock it with a gevey sim etc. if you dont need your phone unlocked, just use stock firmware.

  • Nyox

    Just JB.

  • B477t0n

    got it thanks :D

  • http://twitter.com/GTAMASTER797 Raoul

    i’ve found a bug,respringing removes every app except newsstand!then you need to power off and then power on the device!it’s a little bit annoying,but it gets easily fixed!

  • Piyush

    If your iPhone is on carrier lock then you have to use Custom IPSW to preserve baseband unlock.

    I had iOS 5.0.1 jailbroken (tethered) in my 3GS, then used redsn0w to re-jailbreak (I have no wi-fi here that’s why I didn’t use Corona). Now it gives SIM Failure, and I have already re-installed ultrasn0w 1.2.5.

    I’ve two phones with the following specifics:
    iPhone 4

    BB 02.10.04
    Unlocked by Gevey SIM (FuriousMod)

    iPhone 4

    I’d really need some help on how to upgrade these to iOS 5.0.1 (using custom IPSW I believe) and JB using this untether JB and keep Gevey unlock working. Thanks guys!

  • AznAndy

    Everything went well, but the cydia app icon is now white and crashes when trying to open it. Been re-jailbreaking it for 5 or 6 times now….. Help anyone?

  • Kosic

    @Milla, Where it says Stock Firmware, this means the downloaded firmware from Apple. I just connected my iphone 3GS to my Pc, updated the firmware. Downloaded redsnow, put it into DFU mode, installed the jailbreak (didn’t need to go into Extra’s tab at all).
    The phone booted up, but was stuck on the apple logo, but the Pc was able to detect it on itunes. I disconnected it from Itunes, then did a reset (held the power button and home button till the screen flashed, gave it a few sections then repeated this). The phone booted up, no problems, apart from a white Cydia icon, went into cydia update one APP from there and it is working fine.

  • David_anderson

  • Kosic

    On the new page it says “Offical Download Links from Apple”
    You click the link you want for the device you own, and it’ll ask you to download the firmware (it’s the same firmware from updating via Itunes).

  • Bikespod

    thank you, thank you, thank you, i have my fully functional and useable iPhone again. As it should be, not how apple intended.
    Remember to let the phone finish what its doing and all will be well, wait for the running pineapple logo and the rest of the jailbreak, don’t get alarmed by the first stages and your computer saying “done”, when your phone has loads of command lines on the screen.
    Wait for the phone to reboot.

  • DarkD-ante

    Guys how can i restore back my iphone?

    its not a failure, you should’ve just waited. Mine was like that too

  • Perezof2000

    Reboot ur phone. Then click the Cydia icon again. It will load the files. Also update Cydia. Worked for me

  • Applefan94

    So simple! Update to iOS 5.0.1

  • Applefan94

    i had the same problem but i figured it out! Restore your iDevice with iTunes, NEXT you’re gonna wanna activate it NEXT your gonna wanna install iBooks NEXT Jailbreak your iDevice with Redsn0w 9b10!

    What should I do?

  • Sonicdude987

    if im on 5.0 and havent backed up my shsh blobs for it, do i need to?

  • AR

    Anyone running into this.. redsn0w starts the process and uploads the first and second stages then it says waiting to reboot. At this point my phone just starts up as normal and nothing happens after that. (iPhone 4, 5.0.1, using a MAC) Any advice?

  • Meena00

    Really hope they come up with the ipad 2 jailbreak soon…

  • Harvey

    where can i download the version 5.0.1 ipsw for iphone 4?????

  • yaki_soba

    if you are on 5.0 do you still have to restore to 5.01?

  • Pmancuso

    I wish they could update jailbreakme to allow 5.0.1 users to update via safari that was more better and easyier. Especially for those without computers:-/

  • Migue

    same problem.. before redsnow with just boot working right

  • eorjnf

    thats happening to me ipod touch 4g windows

  • Sheen

    I have a problem.
    The jailbreak works fine. But now i can’t restore my old back on to my iphone. As the restore button is grayed out on itunes.

    Any suggestions?

  • Dean Bain

    via itunes? i dont understand these IPSW things

  • Sonicdude987

    there is a link at the top of the page

  • Sonicdude987

    yes, sadly….

  • Sonicdude987

    there is a cydia tweek that allows you to do so! Its the post before this one even!

  • Sonicdude987

    That button is if you want to restore completely, even taking away your JB. To get your stuff back you can either connect to icloud or sync with iTunes

  • Nina

    thanks alot …..i love u muuahhh

  • yaki_soba

    thanks! and thank you to Dev Team. Hope you can work on 4.11.08 bb

    HELP PLEASE??????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • In2Deep

    This may seem like an odd and stupid question but:

    STEP 1: Backup your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch and restore it using the iOS 5.0.1 IPSW file downloaded above.

    I’ve backed up my phone, how do I restore it to iOS 5.0.1 IPSW?

    Also, don’t I have to do something with PKGBackup to ensure my data is safe?

    I understand the rest of the steps, just not the first one *help :( *

  • Mitchellbasaraba12

    so jailbroke it untethered but went to restart and it acted as if it was tethered and stayed at the apple logo? how do i fix this?

  • Fairul Tahir

    guys.after i jailbreak n install appsyn 5.0.1 my phone respring and stuck on apple logo.please help me

  • Manny9321

    I have an iPhone 4s on 5.0.1 can I use this jailbreak or do I have I wait still????

  • eorjnf

    disable the box that says enable battery percentage and keep trying i did it after a few trys

  • In2Deep

    You’ll have to wait, this is for everything up to the iPhone4 (which excludes iPad2 and iPhone4S, unfortuntely)

  • Viper353

    WOOOO!!! thank you so much for your hard work dev team/chronic/pod2g!!! now waiting for 04.11.08 unlock so I can use my iphone 4 not as an ipod touch anymore :) )

  • Israelsaviolli

    simple!!!
    Thanks to you guys!!

  • Viper353

    they meant to restore/update it to 5.0.1 if you haven’t already done it before or you are running any other iOs lower than 5.0.1 :)

  • Viper353

    it does work, just do the steps correctly. if you did and your phone/ipod is now in black screen just wait for the laptop/pc to recognize your DFU iphone/ipod for a few seconds/mins. :)

  • Mitch

    I jailbroke my ipod 4g untethered, but when i go to restart it it just stays at the apple logo and i need to use redsnow to boot it. WHY ?

  • Dend0ng

    hurm.. sure work ?

  • Bob

    so do we still need to “Select IPSW” and browse for the iOS 5.0.1 IPSW file?

  • Viper353

    you dont need to save shsh for 5.0 since no one is working on that. I think shsh for 5.0.1 is automatically saved if im not mistaken (remember reading about it somewhere) :)

  • In2Deep

    Ah thank you Viper! That makes more sense :)

  • Ktmunited

    U and me only broda.Seems like noone read our post

  • Viper353

    via iTunes, click on your phone from the left side tab of iTunes and then you will see Summary. You will easily find the Restore button below the “Check for Update” :)

  • Viper353

    yes via itunes. :)

  • Viper353

    mine doesn’t work too. It says to restore again but I dont wanna go through all that trouble and sync all my apps/music/vid again. :) )

  • GI

    I had the same problem, I tried a link on another site. :D

  • Viper353

    you tried using tinyumbrella?

  • Viper353

    what device and firmware?

  • http://twitter.com/lemerian lemerian

    OMG its working I love it Thank you so much

  • Bikespod

    i had this problem, just keep trying. imagine the pressure on the servers

  • soho

    Yes, you have to. Otherwise, you will get a white apple logo after jb. (boot loop).

    For those who failed to JB, make sure IPSW file is selected before JB. The old version of Redsn0w prompt for IPSW file upon startup, maybe should put that this feature to reduce the number of questions asked.

  • asf785

    ok ill try right ow but will the pc take that long to recognize it? it’s also saying its not in DFU mode im almost positive it is as i have jailbroken before.

  • Mengual Paco26

    Hey Guys ! Sorry to bother you all, I just got a little problem that REALLY ENNOYS ME !!!! Here it is, I have a jailbroken iPod 4G under 4.3.5 (tethered of course).

    Hey Guys ! Sorry to bother you all, I just got a little problem that REALLY ENNOYS ME !!!! Here it is, I have a jailbroken iPod 4G under 4.3.5 (tethered of course). I decide to back up and upgrade to 5.0.1 on Itunes, so it saves but when it’s time to restore, there’s an error message tellin’ me that it can’t be restored (ERROR #3194) !!!! What Should I Do ????
    Thanks in advance

  • Wayne

    I keep getting fatal error on my redsnow.. Is this common??

  • Prabh_(Punjabi)

    Hey Mengual, Jus install tiny umbrella (soft), and after running it, go to advanced tab, and then untick the “Set hosts to Cydia on Exit”…… then go for updation.. u willl have clean updation

  • ThatGuyOverThere

    Just install the corona untether package from cydia, that might help

  • Momails

    I have an unlocked 3gs with 4.3.2 and 6.15.00. Should I preserve the baseband when I upgrade to 5.0.1?

  • Tyler

  • Jonramost

    i get searching ad no wifi what can i do i have gevey do i need a att sim ?

  • Aturb05

  • Anbes

    That`s what happend to me: iphone 4 4.3.3 – upgrade (itunes) to 5.0.1. restore (backup – my iphone profile). ok (even some installous apps!). Well then: redsnow, jailbreak but: re-boot cycle (unfinished!). Well, tryed to do another jailbreak: same issue. Now I am restoring it againg from itunes, and I`ll try another jailbreak! Any help before do it?

  • Arzizu

    for Iphone 4s 5.0.1, Please…..

  • Nd

    good question regarding hacktivation and untether

  • Sdosf

    Try entering *.* This would show all the files, and then Select IPSW download.

  • Guest

    You need it from here, so u can then point redsn0w to the firmware. Then, when u r finished restoring, the phone will ask u if u want to restore from a backup, then u select the last backup, and everything should run perfectly.

  • Lky_3

    Will this unlock the phone as well. Im using a BRAND NEW/CLEAN Iphone 4 thats a version 5.0 and BB 4.11.08. I have T-Mobile. ARe there any additional steps needed. I just dont see anything about unlocking….just the JB.

  • Anbes

    you didn`t get. It was not on 5.0.1 yet! Fst time on ios5 and I used the newst vers. of redsnow, theorically “unthetered”! It didn`t pass over appels boot logo

  • Damiano

    to load an old backup, you would have to option restore and select the old backup.. i’m having sheen’s issue as well

  • Mengual Paco26

    I did it but the same error message reappeared oO ?? Do I need to quit tiny umbrella while it restores ?? I’m quite lost here –”

  • Guest

    I have a 3GS, and it says that my device doesn’t support untethered options. WTF is that???

  • Anbes

    sorry, wrong place

  • Travis

    once it is jailbroken open Cydia.
    in the bottom right corner select “Search”
    and type in “ultrasn0w”
    install this and then your device will reboot and be unlocked

  • stuck

    nah me too!! ive been tryin to demystify this shit for the past 2 hours

  • Pablo

    iBooks doesn’t work… :( when i open it there is a message that says “There is a problem with the configuration of your iOS Device. Please restore with iTunes and reinstall iBooks“
    Anyone knows a fix?

  • Ben Cichanowicz

    I get that all the time (Redsn0w crashes in Windows). It means you did not properly get into DFU mode. Try to anticipate when the different parts of that process go to the next step and when you get to the last part where you are holding just the home button release right when you hear the USB ‘do donk’ sound, you should have like 8 seconds left on the timer clicking down in that step’s direction. It’s very exact (and annoying nonetheless).

  • Anbes

    it is not ready. Just wait

  • JPlante925

    yea i have the same problem.. i recovery fixed it but now the screens black and i presume off, but nothing else works im gonna try restoring it through itunes and than re try it..

    I had the same situation with my sisters iPhone, and to fix it all i did was use another computer to upgrade it. Worked fine for me. If its possible try using another computer to do your upgrade.

  • Djchewie

    Anyone know why I cannot get a carrier? I connect to Itunes and it wont even give me the option to restore. =(

  • Tetten

    I’m currently running 4.3.5 (not jailbroken). Can I use iTunes to update or do I need to use the “restore” file mentioned above? And if so, how do I do this? This is my first time jailbreaking. Thanks.

  • Helen

    no

  • doubthou

    Use iTunes
    But be quick, before they release iOS 5.0.2

  • Tarek Bahie

    i also have the same problem

  • doubthou

    No, but you can backup your cydia apps, like xbackup

  • Solarmeo

    waiting for 4.11.08 unlock too !

  • doubthou

    no, it is even lighter than the app store

  • Fairul Tahir

    yupe and i just restore and jailbreak again but still the same.why?

  • doubthou

    Are you an ultrasn0w user? You should choose the option deactivate in redsn0w and then install ultrasn0w through cydia

  • doubthou

    Reboot

  • Helen

    i was on 4.3.3 JB and I updated on itunes but mine is factory unlocked, if you have an unlocked phone, you should ask again.

  • doubthou

    Respring or reboot, it should work

  • doubthou

    They are corrently working on it

  • Adrian Wong

    i keep having exploiting failed problem. anyone the same as me? help pls ! :(

  • doubthou

    Ozzy, use redsn0w and the custom BB option. (have to be in pwned DFU mode). (redsn0w custom BB is like sn0wbreeze). After that run redsn0w and Jailbreak, be sure the option deactivate is checked, this is the same as jailbreak. Go to cydia then and install ultrasn0w

  • doubthou

    I meant deactivate is the same as hacktivate no jailbreak, sorry :)

  • Sunsetofnemesis

    Too bad A5 gadgets have no jb. I’m soooo sad!!!!!

  • Damiano

    i am connected via cable.. both ‘check for updates’ a dn ‘restore’ buttons are greyed out. I’m on a mac. all latest software.. :(

  • doubthou

    Corre redsn0w, selecciona Jailbreak y Sigue las instrucciones en pantalla, fácil ¿No?

  • doubthou

    In redsn0w, section extras you find the option custom IPSW

  • XIII

    Installed Corona but now cydia wont open. Someone please help. Thanks!!!

  • doubthou

    Maybe you are usibg an old version of redsn0w, now that you are thetered, just look for Corona in Cydia

  • Viper353

    like approx 5 mins. It did take longer than the usual jailbreak

  • Tyler Marable

    how do u unjailbreak it

  • Viper353

    welcome :)

  • doubthou

    No, you can use spirit but you still need a 4s for the authentication token

  • Viper353

    mine took around 1-2 minutes. maybe yours is already tethered jbroken before doing these steps? I heard some people have problems with that (not sure how to fix since mine went flawless) :|

  • Dman4441

    can you unlock it still?

  • doubthou

    Do a clean restore with iTunes.
    Put your device in DFU and then click restore in iTunes

  • Viper353

    It’s this program which helped me before after encountering some errors via iTunes. I’m not sure though if its gonna work with error 21. Sorry if I couldn’t be much of help but try searching online, I bet there are lots of guides regarding that :)

  • Nickolasn

    No, after jailbreak you have to download appsync from installous source and select the apps you want from itunes. cydia apps you have to redownload but becareful not all cydia apps are compatible with ios5

  • ipsw4

    Where can we download custom ipsw 5.0.1 for iphone4 ?

  • doubthou

    Of course you can, but be sure you used a custom IPSW, otherwise reflash iPad baseband (This will only work in old botroom 3gs users!)

  • Anbes

    Well, it worked after new re-instal of iOS and new jailbreakQ

  • darkxk9

    i updated my jailbrocken ipad 1 from 4.3.3 to 5.0.1 then jailbroke it and now its stuck in boot loop. does anybody know how to fix it?

    Weird, in the setup window, Did you pressed restore from backup or use as a new iDevice?

  • SBF

    I have a new/clean iPhone4 (not 4S) and it is not jailbroken yet, it has IOS 5.0.1…
    Is it possible to jailbreak a new and non-jailbroken iPhone? How !
    There are two IPSW file for iPhone 4 at link (iPhone3,1_5.0.1_9A405_Restore and iPhone3,3_5.0.1_9A405_Restore) which one is right one?
    I read some problems with ibook in comments below… Is it solved already?

  • doubthou

    May be you just need to restart iTunes

  • Helen

    you just do as it says above! Read the tutorial.

  • jan

    me too. I strictly followed the steps..I guess. But then I have restored it and now facing that problem will happen again.

  • Gshdzf

    Worked great on iPhone 4! Cydia was a little buggy at first, but seems good now!

  • doubthou

    Just use redsn0w, choose Jailbreak and then follow the onscreen instructions. As you see in the video they didnt choose the IPSW, redsn0w does this automatically.

  • keventthk

    cydia really laggy is the only problem.

  • SBF

    which IPSW for iPhone 4?

  • doubthou

    Did you chose Install cydia in redsn0w?

  • Xxxnsvxxx

    wil this work on 5.0

  • Damiano

    after the new iOS 5 was installed, i jail broke it with redsn0w, i turned it on and all looked fine. then i want to restore the backup that i did before upgrading, so I would have to click restore+option key to select the backup i want, but the restore button is greyed out. I’m reinstalling the whole thing now. let’s see if it happens again. i’ll keep u posted. thank you!

  • Helen

    OH NO! I got error code 3004 and now had to restore! I hope I have a backup…
    what does that error code mean? I got it when i tried to update to 5.0.1……..

    how to make “Custom IPSW” for iOS 5.0.1 – I need to preserve BB?

  • Sheen

    Anyone found a solution to the iTunes restore button being grayed out?
    I reckon it has to do with the baseband or SHSH blobs. I plugged my iPhone 4 into a different computer and the same problem occurred. I plugged a different iPhone 4 into both mac and PC’s and that works fine.

    Without the backup, i have no contacts, pictures or data.

    Do I need to do something with tiny umbrella?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Gtmort

    Just restart you device

  • Sheen

    Download the firmware file.
    Run redsn0w.
    Click Extras.
    Click ‘Custom IPSW’.
    Locate your firmware file.
    After redsn0w has done it’s thing, put your iDevice in DFU mode. (Click Pwned DFU on redsn0w for step by step instruction).
    Once you are in DFU mode (screen should be black).
    Click option/alt on the Restore button in iTunes and select the NEW firmware file.(begins with NO_BB)
    Once your iDevice has started up, launch redsn0w again and select Jailbreak this time round. Follow the instructions and you’re done!

  • Gtmort

    Just restart your device

    issue fixed.
    1. enter DFU again ( follow the standard procedure)
    2. reimage iOS 5.01 by iTunes
    3. setup iPhone as new device
    4. reboot PC and JB again
    enjoy

  • Sheen

    Well, I managed to figure it out myself.

    I was relying on the gevey unlock so I had a different carriers sim inserted. Instead, I deactivated the phone and inserted the phone carriers sim and activated it. Boom! Restore button has restored.

    so quick question…I Successfully jail-broke my iPhone 3gs but the only problem is when in cydia I cant seam to download anything now i think its because i cant update cydia itself…. im missing small files that should be there….( I Think) like prefreneloader Ect…should i just wait becuase cydia is being smashed with users?

  • Christian Diazf

    cydia doesn’t work? Its giving me the request timed out. Verification timed out. anyone knows how to fix that?

  • Sheen

    Well, I managed to figure it out myself.

    Great, just jailbroke my 3gs…No problems…..I do have a question if somebody wouldn’t mind giving some advice……

    At the moment my 3gs is on BaseBand 05.16.05, I’d like to install the 06.15 BaseBand to unlock it, but it has the new BootRom….I have been told to stay away from the ipad BB as it will break the radio making the iphone useless, but someone else told me it depends when it was made, so I’m getting conflicting advice..Could anybody with experience advise me please, my Phones details are….

    3gs 5.0.1 JailBroken, New BootRom with BaseBand 05.16.05, Serial No. **019******, Model MC132B.

    I’m told the 019 means it was made in week 19 of 2010, which means it should be ok….Someone else told me that’s rubbish and the New BootRom will die if I try to unlock it…..Which is right……

    Thanks in advance….

    To everyone having the cydia issue, i belive it is because cydia is OVERLOADED. i’m already jailbroken/unlocked on ios 5.0.1 but i cant find the corona patch on cydia anywhere, and all the “NEW” apps are showing under yesterdays date, so i imagine it is an issue with all the traffic…. I’m on a 3gs 5.0.1 tethered jailbreak, but i jailbroke the phone using the 5.0 ispw and i boot using the 5.0 ispw… i guess im one of the ones using a “hybrid”… still unsure about applying this once i find it… mine phone is working GREAT already

    I just got an iPhone 4 a few days ago. After installing the new jailbreak my audio is messed up. Whenever I play music or do anything involving sound it makes this annoying noise. I’ve restored it three times and the problem is still there. Idk if it’s related to the jailbreak but I’m taking it back to get replaced. Any ideas on what’s happening? I’ve also tried rebooting.

  • Davids

    Thanks for the update!

    Just untethered 3GS with redsn0w. It seems like it worked, Cydia is on my iPhone now. I noticed after the JB that when I looked at my photograph albums, it showed pixelation and didn’t sharpen up until after I did a hard reboot, then it viewed normally, but with some noticeable slowness. The whole reason I JB was for the PDANET WiFi and the SBSettings. PDANET 5.30 installed fine, but when I click to turn on the WiFi hotspot, I activate it, but the Wifi hotspot does not stay on nor does the other device see it. SBSettings won’t install, I keep getting multiple http: 1.1 500 internal server error. And it won’t install. Anyone know what I need to do??? Thanks in advance.

    Follow the steps posted.
    Put your device in DFU and then hit Jailbreak in redsn0w, that is all

    Even IF it were illegal, that doesn’t mean it’s wrong to do so. Please do not endorse the idea that law and morals are anywhere near similar.

    Iphone 3Gs – new bootrom

    This worked perfectly for me! BEFORE doing this though, I had previously updated the IOS to 5.0.1 and installed an earlier version of redsn0w (redsn0w_win_0.9.10b1). I then jailbroke the phone ensuring I selected “select ipsw” (click extras on the first page that opens in the redsn0w application). The 5.0.1 ipsw was saved to the desktop after downloading it. The you go “back” and select “jailbreak.” At this point, tick “install cydia” and “install ipad baseband.” I had done this over and over again without ticking “install ipad baseband” and it would not work because ultrsn0w 1.2.5 (which I had installed previously) is only compatible with firmware 06.15.00. After running the jailbreak this way ultrasn0w kicked in automatically (didn’t need to re-install it) and the phone was unlocked. If at this point you have not installed ultrsn0w – using the Cydia App in the phone – then you need to do this in order to unlock the phone.

    So after doing all of this above, when I ran this untethered redsn0w – I made sure NOT to select “install cydia.” (see the notes above). It ran perfectly. iPhone is running untethered – I can turn it on and off without having to run redsn0w each time using a PC.
    No problem installing apps now; so far everything seems sweet!

  • Frank

    HELP! I created two custom IPSW’s to preserve my baseband, one with Redsn0w and another with Sn0wbreeze. I went into DFU mode and selected the custom IPSW’s to restore but I keep getting errors 1600, 1601, 1602 even after I run iREB. Can someone help?

    No doubt this is something with the program itself. Just to be sure, I’m going to run a system scan via the command promt (SFC /scannow) and report back any results.

    May I know how do you fixed it? I have the same problem on my XP sp2.

    The only new software I installed after the last jailbreak using this machine was AVG free 2012. Is that the reason?

  • Anwar

    the jailbreak should activate your phone.. after restoring just run the jailbreak and that should do

    everyone is jailbreaking and updaying the modmyi source is down and alot of the stuff wont work.. just wait until the server is back or google the sources list ssh into your device and install them manually

  • D.Peysum

    Just in case you were having doubts, I can confirm that you can install the iPad baseband on the new bootrom 3GS. I’ve done it on several iPhones with no adverse effects. Just as long as the serial is xx135 or below, you’re fine.

    yeah, it happens unlike the last version of redsn0w

    Currently running jailbroken Iphone 4 on iOS 4.3. Should I “update” to iOS 5.0.1 using Itunes before running Redsnow 0.9.10? Or should I “restore” (how do I do that?) to iOS 5.0.1 using the IPSW file downloaded here? What is the difference? Thanks.

  • Gene Anderson

    same here…was able to download a book, but then got a misconfiguration error stating that i needed to restore or reinstall ibooks

  • Weeljohn

    Works perfectly! :) iphone4 BB 5.0.1 firmware 1.59.00 THANKS A LOT!!!

  • Matt

    everytime i put in DFU redsn0w starts up fine then goes to the “waiting for reboot” part and the apple icon shows up on my phone and then the phone just turns as normal

  • http://twitter.com/CliffyTheRed Kyle Clifford

    So, I followed these instructions, and got the jailbreak onto my ipod. Cydia was installed, but it won’t let me download anything from Cydia that I had on 4.2.1′s untethered jailbreak. It gives me an error message that says, “Note: Cannot Locate Package.
    The package libactivator cannot be found in your current sources. I might recommend installing more sources. This issue may also be caused by a number of other factors. The most common one is that your package catalog is out of date. To manually refresh, click the refresh button on the changes tab. This package may simply no longer exist. It is also possible you are using an old firmware version: users should attempt to remain reasonably up to date with apple’s firmware releases.”
    I’ve tried adding a few of the most popular packages, and refreshing the package catalog’s etc. and I don’t know what to do. I’ve heard rumors from friends that the 5.0.1 jailbreak doesn’t work on ipod 4g’s? help please?

  • Weeljohn

    just try a hard reboot, hold down the home button and sleep button at the same time then wait till the apple logo appears then release..

  • Gene Anderson

    Cydia server is having issues…give it a day for the dust to settle….this has happened before, and legit cydia purchases always end up working fine.

  • Emma1985

    Ok thank you =)

  • Doubthou

    Shit, the servers are down. Let me explain you.
    Redsn0w fetches the files in your iDevice (to see your IPSW) .
    What happens here is that redsn0w acnt connect, keeping you waiting. If you have the time and patience you can download the IPSW for your device and use it with manually select IPSW option in redsn0w

  • Gene Anderson

    cydia is up and running…check saurik twitter

  • Musou18

    I have jb my iphone 4 and installed cydia. But for some reason when I try to add source by clicking on “add”, cydia crashes. Anybody know why this is the case???

  • http://twitter.com/CliffyTheRed Kyle Clifford

    Well, things like Activator and Winterboard are the only things I really need, and they don’t have purchase versions as far as I can see. Plus I’d rather just get a free version anyway. I’ll try again in a few days though and see what happens. Thanks.

  • sony

    solo sigue los pasos que te recomienda….. Para actualizar manualmente, haga clic en el botón de actualización en la ficha cambios para que se descarguen los paquetes completamente,,,,, espero y te ayude dealgo,,,,,

  • Weeljohn

    Im not sure if this is the difference, i think if you depends on unlock iphone 4 or if you want unlock iphone 4 (unlocking baseband for iphone 4 1.59.00) you have to download the IPSW file that given by them to preserve the baseband using redsnow.. because when you update it directly to your itunes, it will automatically upgrade your baseband.. And now if you only want a jailbreak iphone 4, i think its easy to update it on your itunes then just jailbreak it with Redsn0w 0.9.10

  • Hydromaster

    Why does it say cannot load package when I try downloaded my purchased apps

  • Kevinrubio98

    PLEASE ANSWER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i was having that problem earlier, when i did the 0.9.9b9 jailbreak tethered just as this was getting released for a friend. I believe that the traffic flow is very crowded so the repos are going down.

  • MichaelC

    For everyone who is having problems… Just use the older Redsn0w and download semi-tethered and then install Corona to prevent any weird problems. Fixed mine for sure.

  • LaZYGuY

    you can download winterboard and see bigboss items?

    I have iPhone 4( AT&T ) running in iOS 4.2.1 with BB 3.10.1 using gevey unlock and I want 2 update to iOS 5.0.1 so tell me the whole procedure plz

  • Hipstaman iPhoneography

    Can some one please please help me! I’ve tried googling the answer before posting here but I cannot find one.

    Here’s what happened. I was running hactivated iphone 4 running iOS5 tethered jailbroken device with no problem. A few hours ago I decided to update to iOS 5.0.1 for the untethered jailbreak.

    1) Connected my phone to iTunes. right click. Backed up phone.
    2) Created custom ipsw with redsnow
    3) Restore via itunes using the custom ipsw
    4) Jailbroke using redsnow
    5) Booted using redsnow

    Then I had to set up the phone as a new phone and it did not give me the option to restore from back up. So I went ahead and set it up as a new phone.

    Now for my questions:

    1) Is cydia buggy for everyone?

    2) Why are my update and restore buttons greyed out in iTunes?

    3) Does sam prefs work for iOS 5.0.1?

    4) Is there anyway I can recover my data? I have the backup file in my itunes.

    I now have a untethered jailbroken phone with no push notifications and have lost all my data.
    Please please answer me, even if you have the answer to one question.

  • Anonymous

    Download the 5.0.1 stock firmware from the link above and save it to your desktop, of course download resn0w also, after downloads are complete open redsn0w click on extras and go to select ISPW find the 5.0.1 firmware you saved to your desktop, go back and now click jailbreak and follow the rest, make sure idevice is powered off

    Yes Cydia is buggy it will probably be for a couple days, I would simply close iTunes and restart my computer and reopen iTunes. Do you have the latest iTunes installed?

    Hurray!! People who are not able to unlock their iPhone 3GS on 6.15.00 baseband….follow this.

    You must Jailbreak your phone by using ‘install Cydia’ and ‘install ipad baseband’ options and then try to unlcok using ultrasnow 1.2.5.

    Restart your iphone and it’s done. Network is back and working!! Hope this helps…

    Thanks Symine. Could you please point me in the direction of some instructions for this. All of the instructions I’ve found seem to be iphones already using a tethered or semi-tethered for IOS 5.0.1 version. Thanks

    Hey guys, some help here? I just Jailbroken my iPhone4 with the untethered 5.0.1 version. But the Cydia app crashed when I try to search or add sources… HELP PLEASE!!!! THANKS!!

  • Aamirgigani

    I am on ios 4.3.3 and baseband 03.10.01 and i use gevey sim to unlock my phone.Was wondering if the same gevey sim will work if i update to ios5 by preserving my baseband

  • DarkD-ante

    Guys doing this for the first time so could help… to restore back to my original state what all do i need… i mean files… in my pc??

  • Christian Diazf

    yes, just download the ipsw and on redsn0w use the preserve baseband option in extras and it will build you a custom ipsw that will be labeled NO BB 5.0.1 saying no baseband upgrade and you’ll use that to update your device via itunes and then you will be able to keep the same baseband and yes you can use your gevey sim with ios 5 if you do what i just told you.

  • Amith_surana

    Guys yesterday ni8.. i jailbroke ma iphone 4(running ios 5.0.1)(untethered)…. now when i try adding source it takes a long time to download n in between i get a error msg like not able to fetch data n all… after waiting for a lng time its says return to cydia…when i go n check inside the source is empty.. guys wat should i do..

  • http://twitter.com/Dingchow Dingchow

    Use redsn0w_win_0.9.9b9d.
    Point to ipod 4g 5.0 ispw and jailbreak (tethered)
    After jailbreak “Just Boot” to enable Cydia
    Go into Cydia install Corona (5.0.1 untether)
    Done 5.0.1 untether

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1208342918 Ziyau Saeed

    yes it will work.. i had the same configuration with gevey sim.. you need to keep the baseband safe.. you can do that by making a custom IPSW using redsn0w

  • Choirbass

    awesome, it worked!. Updated essential files. After it fiinished, reprung, relaunched cydia, refreshed, located corona, installed, *rebooted*, and all was still fine :)

    refreshing and updating everything does take awhile, especially if not all sources are able to be updated.

    Help, after jailbreaking untethered my iPhone 4 can’t launch all apps, only stock apps, all other apps opens and then loading and closes almost immediatly. Cydia apps like bitesms dont work they install well but cant be used, neither winterboard, i download it and it appears on homescreen but it doesnt respond when I change themes or anything :( Tried to both check and uncheck Cydia when jailbreaking.. Send me help to or respond here..

  • xDarkblade

    i had the same problem but after using the “just boot” function in redsnow it work normally again! even after any reboot!

  • Help me plz

    In Redsnow -> extras there is only “Just boot” “Pwned DFU” “Recovery fix” “SHSH blobs” “Select IPSW” “Custom IPSW” “Preferences”. Im guessing its select IPSW but i have no idea what IPSW is so i don’t know what to load

  • Vivek_vicky98

    hi i tried every thing like reboot with redsn0w & re jailbreak , but my cydia is not working till know , it worked only once for me only for the first time after that on restart i am not able to open it all stok apps like mail & Safari is working fine but cydia is not working . plz helpppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp.

  • Jeffrey

    I just followed these instructions above, but it “upgraded” by modem firmware from 05.12.01 to 05.15.05, which seems to be incompatible with ultrasn0w and so now my unlock is not working.

    Any ideas how to fix this? The instructions didn’t say anything about it not preserving the baseband…

  • gulf23

    I already updated to 5.0.1 through itunes. Do i need to download the IPSW file and update again?

  • Dasher888

    Hi guys just a quick one. When i try to install “WinterBoard” on IPod 4G–IOS:5.0.1 Cydia gives me a “Cannot Compy” Then under that “Note: The requested modifications cannot be applied due to required dependencies or conflicts that connot be automatically found or fixed” under that it says “Continue Queuing”. At the bottom it also says WinterBoard Depends on preferenceloader and libhide >= 2.0.4. Please help a newb ;D

  • Danielr

    Im user of iphone 4, yesterday I do downgrade soft from 5.0.1 to 4.3.5 but baseband 4.11.08 is still thesame. Can anyone help becouse I dont know what to do. Some people say downgrade BB can be done but others say no posibilyty. Please HELP!

  • Dasher888

    I think i may have found a answer it looks like winter board hasn’t been updated to the new IOS:5.0.1

  • New iPod owner :)

    Feel i little silly! in 1st step does it mean

    Step 1: backup my current iPod using iTunes
    Step 2: restore using new IPSW 5.0.1

    just mixing me up Step 1: It says back and restore but step 2 is restore

    can someone be kind enough to put me straight

    cheers for the great job

  • asif

    f*ck, nobody answers here, everyone just reads everyone else’s shit

  • Dasher888

    It depends on what you need to do. ;D I am guessing from your name that the IPod is brand new?
    That means it is proberly already on 5.0.1 ;D But ignore step 1′s restore and carry on :)

  • =)

    It means you should backup your iPod first, and restore with the IPSW files (shift + restore) .
    Then, you can choose the options “Restore from backup”. Done. cheers.

  • =)

    Not yet, because iPad 2 uses A5 chip.

  • =)

    This jailbreak is for iOS 5.0.1.

    u must upgrade to iOS 5.0.1 for this jailbreak. just update from itunes.

    You will not lose the Apps you have bought or downloaded from the App Store n

  • rbid

    I also have iphone 4 on 5.0.1. and no, all will be left as is. This is my first time jailbreaking, was quite nervous about what would happen. Everything works just as it did before (so far) and cydia installed. I am having issues with cydia like a lot of other people but apparently it should smooth out after a couple of days.

    It does not matterif it is factory unlocked

  • Torch_ind

    I have this prob with my wifes iphone 4 same thing I can’t get it to load any big boss repo stuff causing all these problems.

  • TLN

    Yes but you need to restore to a custom firmware that removes baseband. you can either use iFaith or redsn0w to build. Restore , jailbreak and then unlock…

  • prince3o

    Thanks guys!!!

  • asif

    Ill reply cos no one else will – NO!

    OMG and I thought my questions were dumb and that’s why they weren’t being answered…….

    Does baseband matter on a factory unlocked phone???

  • tanin

    Weird. I tried jailbreaking 3 times my Ipod Touch 4g and each time I do it I don’t see a Cydia icon.

    Why?

  • rbid

    Put you device into DFU mode after you click ‘jailbreak’ like it shows in the video tutorial above. I tried the written method first and had the same problem.

  • Guest

    To my knowledge there is not yet an untethered break for the 4S.

  • rbid

    someone replied to ur post the first time u asked

  • Dasher888

    How would i go about reloading the repo?

  • Amriju Inc.

    No.. don’t follow this, this would update your baseband to latest : 4.11.XX and you won’t be able to unlock for other carrier. Instead, download stock 5.0.1 firmware and use snowbreeze to create custom ipsw, and use the custom created ipsw in itunes, so that your baseband would remain : 3.10.1 !! !

  • Amriju Inc.

    Probably you used the wrong IPSW files. Please double check it.

  • Amriju Inc.

    What is ur question ?

  • Amriju Inc.

    Download the Snowbreeze that is capable of creating custom IPSW for your stock 5.0.1 ipsw file. After that use itunes to restore the custom IPSW (NOT DIRECTLY FROM ITUNES).. so that your baseband will be preserved and remain to 1.59.00.

  • Amriju Inc.

    if you iphone is factory unlocked, then it won’t matter. !!!

  • Ben Cichanowicz

    I am guessing Bigboss repo is overwhelmed by all us jailbreakers trying to get our stuff all at the same time. I did a bunch of googling to find repos that contained the tweaks I wanted and dependencies that were needed and added them to get the stuff.

  • Amriju Inc.

    It is for 5.0.1 NOT 5.0

  • Amriju Inc.

    do you have 5.0.1 ??

  • Amriju Inc.

    So you are using Iphone 3GS ??
    Well then what you need to do is , now you upgrade your Modem firmware(baseband ) to 6.15.00( also called Ipad baseband) which can be done from redsn0w. Once ou do it. you are set. ! Anything buzz me. !!

    Remove cydia from background apps and try to reload on Cydia home.
    Alternatively, google for preferenceloader.deb and libhide.deb, download them. Use ifunbox and put them in cydia app install folder. Reboot your phone and try reinstalling winterboard. This method worked for me while installing ultrasn0w and mobilesubstrate.

  • TLN

    you could use this link to download all the .debs you want from official bigboss repo.

  • prince3o

    Every time I try to add a source it says [POSIX: Operation timed out]… HELP!!!

  • TLN

    I would prefer using redsn0w or ifaith as you can stitch your API tickets along with SHSH blobs. So you don’t have to worry about downgrading if you keep this stitched ipsw. Not sure if sn0wbreeze is updated to do that…

  • Dasher888

    It works :D Thank you very much.

  • TLN

    Its because repo’s in cydia are busy. Try again later.

  • TLN

    If you add multiple repo’s wouldn’t it be slow to reload data..

  • prince3o

    Thanks. I’ll try again later.

  • Justinz

    Yes, I am having the same issue, I believe it is because the cydia servers are being overloaded. By the mass of people who are jailbreak untethered right now, although this has been happening to me since 4pm EST yesterday. So im hoping we can get this bug resolved asap.

    I jail broke my iPhone 4 last night and then I didn’t have any service on it (it just said “no service” up top) is there something I did wrong in the process?

  • TLN

    Check if you have some proxy setup for internet. I had the same issues when i tried it at my work. It also crashes if your usb port isn’t working. which processor is your XP on 64/32bit processor? if 64 go to task manager, select redsn0w and set affinity to 0.

  • TLN

    Make sure the extension is .ipsw and not .zip. If its .zip change it to ipsw.

  • TLN

    reboot and see if it still doesn’t work. Go to settings->General ->Reset->Reset network settings.

  • Guest 00525

    my processor is 32bit, what should I do? Thanks!

  • zac

    then is it means that cydia files doesnt works?

  • TLN

    Do you connect to internet through proxy?

  • TLN

    Also try after disabling your antivirus..
    Also try this… Open up redsn0w
    Open Task Manager
    Right click the redsn0w process
    Click “Set Affinity”
    Set it to CPU 0 only

  • vizionz

    how do i go about doing that..?

  • Guest 00525

    How could I tell if my internet connect through proxy? I am connecting LANS with router and there is no setting that I think proxy related.

  • TLN

    What’s the extension of your downloaded ios file? if its .zip then rename it to .ipsw

  • http://twitter.com/JasonShen Jason Shen

    I had the same issue. I went and hit the refresh button in the changes tab. You might need to try this a few times before it really works. Downloading/updating the packages seem to take a while. Be patient and it will update and then you can download apps.

  • oO

    i installed lockdown package and it started to crash and going to safe mode
    any idea or similar symtoms?

  • TLN

    go to internet explorer, internet options -> connections->Lan settings. check if proxy is enabled.

  • Guest 00525

    No “x” in any box of Proxy Server section.

  • Guest 00525

    Will try again after restore complete

    Thanks a lot.

  • Guest 00525

    [Open Task Manager

    how will i know if I have the “hybrid 5.0/5.0.1 configuration” ? -new ipod owner here..

  • Still-in-JAIL!

    iPhone 4
    iOS 5.0.1
    RedSnow 0.9.10b1

    no joy. I’ve been redoing all this procedure to the letter for 3 hours but it just keeps restarting without jailbreaking, like tanin said, the Cydia icon doesn’t appear.

    1) I already upgraded to iPhone to 5.0.1 via itunes using PC not phone.

    2) downloaded Redsnow from this page (redsn0w_win_0.9.10b1).

    3) the video doesn’t show if I need to restore specifically using the IPSW file (iPhone3,1_5.0.1_9A405_Restore) from this page and HOW???

    4) I double clicked on the IPSW file and iTunes took over with the restore… (was this correct the way?)

    5) Redsnow version from this page does NOT have “Battery Percentage” after clicking on JAILBREAK: It just shows Install Cydia, Install custom bundle, Enable multitask gestures, deactivate

    6) Proceeded with Jailbreak DFU as shown in video, but it is stuck for 20 minutes+ with command lines in white text with last lines:

    Mounting rootfs as read only…
    ERROR!

    AppleBCMWLANCore:: handleIOKitBusyWatchdogTimeout(): Error, no successful firmware download after 60000 ms!! Giving up…

    I’ve jailbroken iPhones since the first 3G… I’ve never had this much problem before… any clues guys??

    Is there an easy way to determine if my iPhone 4 is actually jailbroken that doesn’t include putting a different sim card in? Everything worked fine, so it seems, and I have the cydia icon, but when I open it I see above a “error: POSIX: Operation timed out”. Is there a problem?

  • TLN

    I had the same issue when trying to reinstall cydia.. Use custom firmware of u want to preserve baseband. U need restore again.

  • TLN

    You need to click next before putting it phone in DFU mode. Once the clock starts ticking then put it in DFU MODE

  • TLN

    Not necessary as redsn0w would download the files for u.

  • TLN

    For IOS 5+ you need both shsh blobs and API tickets so use extras feature in redsn0w to fetch them

  • TLN

    Are you relying on ultrasn0w unlock then install ultrasn0w else it should be fine.

  • http://twitter.com/nobu34 nobu

    i just jailbroke my device last night, and if you already have a jailbroken iphone, i recommend that you keep it that way. jailbreak 5.0.1 has way to many bugs and nothing works.

    will i lose all my apps from instalous and my cydia tweaks if i update if so how can i stop that happening

  • Ginandtoni

    every time i go into something on cydia it says ‘note: cannot locate package’ ? i read somewhere else to remove all sources except cydia/telesphoreo, so i’ve done that and now about 3 work ? egh… i have no idea what i’m doing !

  • http://twitter.com/nobu34 nobu

    well even if you found a way to save them, updating is the worst thing you can possibly do. installous doesn’t work on 5.0.1. the new jailbreak screws up your phone as well.

  • Hummy

    Did a clean Update & Jailbroke from a stock 5.0.1 only problem is Cydia not refreshing correctly POSIX error.. I can add some sources and install some packages but not many.. when I install Installous and it tell me to respring i get a blank springboard with only the bookshelf and nothing else.. then I have to do a power off/on and everything is back.. Installous rejects every app download and doesn’t even start.. just says error unexpected content..

  • http://twitter.com/nobu34 nobu

    yup same here. now i can’t even access some of my settings. i click on sounds and it instantly kicks me out of the application.

  • Ginandtoni

    how do i take this thing off!?

    go to your itunes and click restore. that will restore your iphone to factory settings.

    i have an itouch4 and im still on 4.3.5 and im scared of updating and jailbreaking because of all the comments telling about things not working well,broken devices,i think its just too buggy :/ should i do it or not????

  • Ben Cichanowicz

    Always a good idea, though I don’t think anyone knows how to use them to restore to older versions of iOS 5.XX quite yet. It’s kind of a potential ‘maybe we can use these someday’ kinda thing. Better to have them than not.

  • Ben Cichanowicz

    Took me 3 computers to find one where Redsn0w worked. I think the USB DFU driver that Windows installs doesn’t always play well with the USB port speed or something. I actually had to use the previous version of Redsn0w and then use the Corona untether in Cydia to finally get it done, but it only worked on the newer laptop in my household.

  • http://twitter.com/nobu34 nobu

    do not update as of right now if you want a jailbroken iphone/ipad/ipod. the jailbreak is highly unstable as of right now. majority of the cydia apps don’t work. i am currently restoring my iphone as we speak because the jailbreak screwed my phone up. i was no longer able to enter my sound settings.

  • http://twitter.com/TerryMcCann11 Terry McCann

    hey im already on 5.0.1 do i need the 5.0.1 firmware for extras still?

  • Ben Cichanowicz

    I had been on the tethered 5.0.1 for a month and everything was running great until I installed Resupported4+ Monday and then my phone got in a boot loop and I had to restore again and of course jailbreak. This time around I got a lot of errors. I think it is because the repos where the tweaks and files are (Bigboss) is being inundated with a TON of people all connecting in at once trying to get jailbreak tweaks and dependencies.. hence the errors. I think things will smooth out as the crowd density hitting these servers disperses.

  • Ben Cichanowicz

    I think you might need to be in PWND DFU mode to restore cause once you jailbreak you always have to use DFU mode to restore (my experience anyway)

  • Ron

    Not sure I understand, I used the program above and it has Cydia installed. That’s all, what else do I have to do? Thanks

  • Ron

    That was in March…..

  • Rjlebron18

    Its not working!!! im getting an infinite boot and my ipod wont startup completely, and i tried forcing dfu but after doing so neither redsn0w nor itunes are able to restor it

  • Christian Diazf

    im trying to add the sinfuliphonerepo source but it gives me an not found repo or not compatible with cydia, any help?

  • Still-in-JAIL!

    I tried that, but the “custom” IPSW that came from preserving baseband came up “incompatible with this version of RedSnow”… Anything else I can try?

  • Modeenee

    would somebody please tell me how can I unlock the phone after jailbreaking?

    iphone 4, ios 5.0.1, locked to AT&T

  • D3ATH

    you don’t need to point redsn0w to 5.0.1

  • D3ATH

    can’t until ultrasn0w is updated

  • Alex_saldana87

    try this it work for me oniphone 3gs ipad basband

    1. Connected the phone to my mac and launched iTunes.
    2. Removed the sim-card from the phone.
    3. Put the phone in DFU mode to do a recovery with iTunes.
    4. When itunes was done and the phone had booted I started redsn0w (Using version: 0.9.9b5).
    5. Put the phone back in DFU-mode so i can jailbreak it.
    6. When I got to the select options in redsn0w, I selected “Install Cyda”, “Install ipad baseband” and “de-activate phone”
    7. Waited for it to finish(this may take long but keep on waiting for a bit), and after it booted up I got the message “No sim card inserted”. I then inserted my sim-card
    8. choose do not enable location services when asked to set up phone(i did that, but im not sure if u need to do that or not)
    9. Continued with the ios 5 setup on the phone and had no issue activating it nor did I get “no service”-message after setup was done.

  • New iPod owner :)

    do you need to go into redsn0w properties compatibility and tick Run this program in compatibility mode for windows xp

  • New iPod user :)

    is this true mate, installous wont work? so what is the point in the jailbreak or am i missing something!?

  • Leezaaaron

    am i the only one that is not getting ultasn0w on my phone or is the system giving trouble

  • Moogle

    i had the same issue. Use the recovery fix option in redsn0w. Manually specify the correct ISPW (with the Select ISPW button), then click Recovery Fix. From there, you’ll restore the device via itunes, then jailbreak in the standard fashion, then install the Corona 5.0.1 untethered thing (search for it in Cydia).

    When you select iOS in red snow it must be stock iOS but for restoring use custom firmware.

    how did u re flash your baseband and is it working for tmobile now?

  • Savior_cruz

    After jailbreaking my iPhone 4 the “restore from backup” button disappeared from iTunes. It reappears with other phones though does anyone know how to fix this

  • TLN

    Put your phone in pawned DFU mode using red snow before updating to custom ios

  • TLN

    If you are using AT&T sim then go ahead and put your sim it should work. I am not sure how CDMAphones work…

  • TLN

    If its something with USB drivers on x64 bit system then he might as well google for libusb and how to install guide.

  • Dsfgsdfg

    don’t you have to unlock it now?

    I have a jailbroken 3GS old bootrom working with SimpleMobile network with SemiTether. I would like to get this Untether thing working but have a question. Do I click Jailbreak and then uncheck Cydia? Can anyone please confirm the steps for me?

  • Jay

    no

  • Tbajaj

    The Dev-Team Blog states to do so and I am confused..

    “If you’re already at 5.0.1 with a tethered jailbreak, you have two choices: either run redsn0w 0.9.10 over your current jailbreak (deselect “Install Cydia” if you do that), or install the Cydia package prepared by the chronic devteam. “

    Hi.. I’m newbie here, i would like to ask before jailbreak (iP4 , iOS 5.0.1), should we remove micro sim card first?

  • Nthammareddy

    Not Necessary.

  • TLN

    Stay on ios 5.0.0 and use ifaith to grab the API ticket + SHSH blobs.

  • TLN

    try this… Open up redsn0w
    Open Task Manager
    Right click the redsn0w process
    Click “Set Affinity”
    Set it to CPU 0 only

  • Joejijul

    OK..Thanks to Nthammareddy.. Appreciated it..

  • Nthammareddy

    uninstall your semitether tweak first. use redsn0w and uncheck ‘install cydia’ or install corona from cydia.

  • TLN

    It depends if you have baseband 1.59 then you can unlock

  • TLN

    Not necessary as apple is still signing for ios 5.0.1. Only if you want to restore to a custom firmware, you need Pwned DFU state.

    Waiting for iPhone 4S Jailbreak. Suffering a lot… :(

  • Sky

    Yes, agree with Bandage. You don’t need to download the firmware, just run the ReadsnOw.

  • Sky

    No, it is working well for my 3GS.

  • Sky

    Yes, you may. iOS 5.0.1 is a better platform, and now you can jailbreak it.

  • Sky

    No, just run Redsn0w, as I did.

  • iDoc

    try using ireb to put it in dfu first then with the phone unplugged get to the dfu instruction screen before pluggin in. then it’ll recognize it without crashing, and finish the process smoothly

    I had a frustrating evening las night and was so relieved that eventually I could reset to my old firmware 4.3.1.
    After jailbreaking to 501 it was stuck in recovery mode, tried everything such as iRed (program for windows which doesn’t start up and you cannot specify your operating system. I tried several versions..), Recboot doesn’t work, fixrecovery doesn’t work, and finally letting ITunes do the job which didn’t work.
    ALSO THIS JAILBREAK IS HIGHLY UNSTABLE AND I RECOMMEND EVERYONE TO WAIT..and enjoy the last days of 2011 :-)

    Try again, I did and it worked….till it got stuck in recovery mode. See further comment above your post.

    Hi,

    I need step by step instructions on how to upgrade from Tethered Jailbreak iOS 5.0 to Untethered iOS 5.0.1.

    Response very much appreciated. Thanks a lot.

  • Garrypross

    Jail breaking should be fine but unlocking depends on which BootRom your iphone is using….If you have the old BootRom then you should be Ok… You will need to install the Ipad BaseBand through Redsn0w….Then install Ultrasn0w through Cydia….. If you have the New BootRom you might still be able to do it, you will need to check your Serial number (3,4,5 digits). This will tell you the year and week your phone was made…. Your looking for the digits to read **034 ****** and below, the zero means 2010 and 34 means week 34….. So for example mine was **019****** and it unlocked fine. If your serial is higher than **034****** then I wouldn’t risk it…… I had the same worries and the above is exactly what I was told….As it worked for me I have no reason to think I was wrongly advised, but beware there is always the chance it can go wrong….

  • Brferguson555

    I got stuck at the resorting loop on my iphone4 ios5.0.1 tethered jb had to restore and I see almost everyone is having problems with this untethered option so I think I will use the old redsn0w and then use corona on cydia after I re tether jb it

    I am having problem with Iphone 4S, when I try to put it into DFU, its not able to recoginise and need me to specify IPSW, how should i do it?

  • roxsun

    the jailbreak doesnt work for iphone 4S

  • roxsun

    1. get tiny umbrella and save your shsh blobs.
    2. download 5.0.1 firmware.
    3.Go to redsnow>extras>Custom IPSW and choose the downloaded 5.0.1 firmware. ( this is to preserve your baseband so you can use ultrasnow unlock)
    4.(this step might be optional, but i got itunes errors and this was the workaround to the errors) Go to resnow>extras>SHSH bobs>stitch. Choose the 5.0.1 shsh blob saved by the tiny umbrella in your computer and the custom ipsw which you created in step 3. Now redsnow will make another custom firmware for you.
    5.Go to redsnow>extras>Pwned Dfu. Follow the instructions and put the phone in dfu mode.
    6.Open tiny umbrella and start tss server.As a cautionary measure uncheck SET HOST TO CYDIA ON EXIT on the advanced tab of tiny umbrella.
    7.Open itunes
    8. Option + click restore.
    9.Choose the firmware that was built in step 4.
    10.DONE.

  • roxsun

    it doesnt matter if u have the new bootroom as long as you have shsh blobs and preserve your baseband while updating.

  • roxsun

    1. get tiny umbrella and save your shsh blobs.
    2. download 5.0.1 firmware.
    3.Go to redsnow>extras>Custom IPSW and choose the downloaded 5.0.1 firmware. ( this is to preserve your baseband so you can use ultrasnow unlock)
    4.(this step might be optional, but i got itunes errors and this was the workaround to the errors) Go to resnow>extras>SHSH bobs>stitch. Choose the 5.0.1 shsh blob saved by the tiny umbrella in your computer and the custom ipsw which you created in step 3. Now redsnow will make another custom firmware for you.

    6.Open tiny umbrella and start tss server.As a cautionary measure uncheck SET HOST TO CYDIA ON EXIT on the advanced tab of tiny umbrella.
    7.Open itunes
    8. Option + click restore.
    9.Choose the firmware that was built in step 4.
    10.DONE.

    the step 4 should fix itunes errors. See if it helps.

    My apps don’t start up, some apps do but most don’t. Even free apps I download from the app store such as: twitter, facebook, and nba game time. The apps just close after 30 seconds of loading. I tried hard resetting and reinstalling apps, but still don’t work. Any idea what could be wrong? (I was thinking it may be caused by a cydia tweak I installed but I don’t have any in mind that could cause this problem)

    anyone know if the new version of redsn0w 0.9.10b3 works well ??

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=774784988 Leighton Berridge

    so why are most people saying they have just boot right now

  • FRUSTRATED!!!

    Ok, seriously frustrated NOW!! Tried to use iFaith to create restore ipsw, downloaded an ipsw, said it couldn’t parse or something so I let iFaith download an ipsw for me, and it still said it was wrong and was I sure it was an ipsw file?? Decided to try redsn0w extras, used the ipsw from iClarified and got the same stupid message!! WTF How on earth as I supposed to create a custom ipsw if none are accepted????

  • Garrypross

    I understand your nervousness, but honestly most of the negative responses are down to user error…. If your a little scared then the best advice is to double check your iphone’s details, BaseBand..BootRom Version…Current Firmware Version, just make sure you know everything about your phone….Then find a guide and video and read through and watch at least twice before you start. If in doubt ask, Cydia seems to be the main complaint I’ve read about, people aren’t taking into account the heavy traffic and are blaming the jailbreak….

    Most problems happen because people rush in, they think they know what they are doing and end up with problems and then blame the jailbreak software…

    I have done my daughters 3gs (old BootRom), My Sons 3gs (old BootRom) and my 3gs (new BootRom) my only hick-up was unlocking mine, but soon resolved simply by removing ultrasn0w, re-installing, turn off the phone and re-boot via redsn0w tethered, inserted sim waited for carrier to show and re-booted….Bingo untethered, unlocked.

    I can’t help with iphone 4, but my experience with the 3gs’s is that it is relatively easy as long as you take your time and make sure you know about your phone, don’t just guess.

  • FRUSTRATED!!!

    NO!

  • FRUSTRATED!!!

    Thats all well and good, I really want to have a go, but I can’t make a bloody restore ipsw because of the damn parse errors no matter where I get the original ipsw file from???

  • FRUSTRATED!!!

    fk i give up….. no restore, no jailbreak!

  • skidmarc

    eat a dick cunt! does it work or wah?

  • FRUSTRATED!!!

    No fuckface!

  • asif

    OK, after much reading I have found out that redsn0w does not support 5.0.1 to create custom ipsw’s at this stage. Not sure how people are making their recovery ipsw’s if they don’t have apple computers?

  • Thuantn80

    is cydia acting funny after jailbreak/unlock to 5.01?

  • http://twitter.com/CliffyTheRed Kyle Clifford

    Just download some program to browse your iPod’s files like a hard drive, and you can make a copy of your music and pictures (and probably a lot of other stuff that’s all I bothered to do) and then just restore your ipod on itunes with whatever your last backup is if you need your apps dearly, or just do a default restore if you don’t mind re-downloading apps. Then wait for a jailbreak that actually works, because this one just screws everyone over.
    Oh, and a good program for this is iFunBox.

    Remove everything apple from your pc. Then download the new iTunes. IF you know how to put your phone to DFU do it. After the new iTunes is up and running. Turn it on. ITunes will recognize and will said need to restore. And let it restore, it will restore your iphone to the new version.

  • Anna

    I’m having 5000 problems to update iTunes. first, the installation says that there is a program that is needed to complete the installation. It doesn’t say which program. I tried updating Windows Installer. It says it ‘needs elevation’.went to windows/programs/accessories/system symbol, right click and all that. still nothing. so I went to windows/execute/regedit and did all that lower and upper deleting thing. still nothing…

  • Anonymous

    I had this issue too. What I believe to be my problem was that I was plugged into a USB 3.0 port and that was causing the issue. If you’ve got a computer with USB 3.0, try plugging into a USB 2 port (they should be black instead of blue or red). If that doesn’t solve it, I don’t know what the issue might be. Good luck! :)

  • Anonymous

    My issue was the USB port I was plugged in to. Turns out it was USB 3 instead of an older USB 2 port. So if you’re plugged into a blue or red USB port, try plugging it into a black one instead. Good luck.

  • asif

    Google Jailbreak QA and ask questions there – they are awesome and experts. I had major problems trying to get a usable IPSW file so i could make a backup/restore file (just in case) and they held my hand through the whole process, sourcing, fixing and stitching a file together for me so I was no longer scared to jailbreak. Do yourself a favour – mostly noobs and learners here, like me! :)

    I am pretty new to this too. But something similar happend to me. I let iTunes restore my phone, (I used the iCloud to back it up and restore) then I ran redsn0w_win_0.9.10b3 which is available from the home page here. I did not select the ISPW (use version iPhone3,3_5.0.1_9A405_Restore if you are updated to 5.0.1 on your phone) but put it in the same folder as redsn0w and everything went well.

  • Zappo

    Hi there, the JB worked flawless on my iPhone 4, but I’m not able to restore a backup from iTunes that I made just right before the JB. iTunes says (in other words, because I have the german version) that the restore fails, because it couldn’t SAVE the backup (but the backup works fine before) and then my iPhone reboots. I tried this also with no JB, but with the same result.

    I use the original SIM of my carrier provider! I unlock the SIM after first boot and then I try to restore and I also tried it with deactivated SIM PIN.

    I think the problem is the reboot, while the restore is in progress: iTunes shows the first 2-3% of the progressbar, the estimated time is calculated and then, after about 15 seconds the iPhone reboots.

    Any ideas, how to recover my data from backup?

    first of all: a very happy new year !!!

  • Zappo

    My system partition has about 45 GB free, the partition with my iTunes library about 700 GB – I don’t know, on which partition the backup lies, but I think on both is enough space.

    How could explain the (possible) need of space the reboot of the iPhone? It seems to be an expected reboot, because the iPhone displays “Wiederherstellung beendet” which could mean “restore finished” or “restore canceled”, this is not very clear explained, then it reboots.

  • gulf23

    Jailbreak seemed to go fine on my iPhone 4 for a few hours then it would restart on its own. Whenever the screen would come back up it would say something to the extent, ” phone is in safe mode due to springboard malfunction.” I would restart like it said and randomly the phone would do it again. I restored the phone and have not had any issues since. (I’ve jailbroken and restored twice and it did this both times.) Can anyone tell me why the phone would be doing that while it was jailbroken?

    But I have a iphone 4(GSM) and its 5.0.1 9A405, I’ve tried version 3 somehow cydia installed but ultrasn0w does not work and installous does not exist in the search menu. For sim card it would go “searching…” then to “no service.”

  • The Geek 411

    This is most likely caused by a recent installation from the “app” store on Cydia… Try Un-installing the most recent “app” and then respring… It happened to me, and was fixed once I uninstalled the recent “app”.

  • Steve

    I have the same phone and same baseband with same bootrom, lol. Yes, you need custom IPSW, only with that you can restore your iPhone successfully on that baseband. You unlock your carrier (phone) with ultrasn0w 1.2.5 (look it up in Cydia). Activation is done automatically by redsn0w by jailbreaking from it.

    Upgraded my iphone 4 (gevey sim) to iOS 5.0.1 with preserving baseband and jailbreaked it. Now I seem to have lost a hotspot. How can i get my hotspot back?

  • Brmworks

    I need to know this same thing – tMobile is the carrier. I’m baffled and every smart tech I know is too. No one can unlock with software because the bb 04.11.08 is just too recent. I had to buy a h20 sim card to make the phone work, but that’s a month-to-month thing and I’d rather use my T-mobile contract for another year. This is a bummer – and it’s all because of the crazy carriers that want to control phone purchases. I don’t get why either – they only make money on the subscriptions and loyalty.

  • Rob1

    The Jailbreak doesn’t work on a Ipod Touch 4th Generation 32 GB.

    It enters in the DFU mode and is also Uploading step one and two and then it says: Waiting for reboot

    The only thing who happens is the ipod is going on and than nothing. It has totaly normaly started?!

    pls help… I had also tried with shutting down the firewall and restarting the PC, also with compality windows xp sp2 and runing as administrator…

    Have a Win7

    Excuse for my post, I have resolved the problem!!

    I downloaded the wrong firmware…
    For a ipod touch G4 32GB you MUST download and use the roght ipsw file.

    I just got my iPhone 4s with IOS 5.0 and i can not Jailbreak the phone, BTW i just won the phone from here if I remember correctly, getappleproductsforfree(.)com please help me with a tutorial.

  • Azarel Howard

    At this time there is no JB for iPhone 4S.

    Pod2G made this one and says that he may be able to release a stable 4S JB (or rather A5 considering that processor is the main issue) by next week sometime.

    Be patient a JB will come. :)

    In the mean time rock and roll for iPhone 4 users like me. :) Now I’ve just gotta whip my iTunes library back into shape. :P

  • Jerrykj

    i am facing “sim card detection prob.” pls hlep me

  • dano26

    so I have ios 4.2.8 and have the 5.0.1 update and need to preserve my bb (1.0.06) which I have already dowloaded the custom IPSW file for. If I update my iphone, will it update the bb automatically? Or once I restore with the custom IPSW, will it just restore it back to my bb? Thanks in advance for the info! So close I can taste my new JB! :)

  • Reeshamabas

  • Sheriff

    alrdy jailbreak my iphone 4 but no cydia icon out,can help me?

  • Azarel Howard

    Ok I have a question here. Everyone keeps going on about the BaseBand (BB). And this ultrasn0w or gevey mods. I’m not trying to use a SIM other than the one my Service Provider gave me with my phone. Do I have to worry about this BB? The guide doesn’t mention it otherwise so should I be fine to upgrade using the fully legit IPSW from Apple and JB from there? Or is the baseband upgrade going to affect the effectiveness the jailbreak?

    I’m somewhat hesitant to upgrade from 4.3.3 with firmware 4.10.1. Is everything fine or should I use one of these custom IPSW’s they keep going on about?

    Thanks in advance

  • Rgu3t0

    I’m trying to do this for my friends 3gs…when i try to select the ipsw file i cannot find it…where in the downlaoded folder do i find it? thanks for any help

  • Rgu3t0

    nevermind….had a no0b moment there…fixed it…

  • Azarel Howard

    Also be sure to download the latest beta from the dev-team’s blog from the link I listed below. Sounds like there have been a few bug fixes done since the B1 link posted above. :)

    Iphone 4 verizon. ios 5.0.1 untethered working great! thanks!!!!

  • Kikoshi

    I got an Iphone4 GSM unlocked with Simple Mobile, with 5.0 Tethered,
    Now how do i go on About updating it to 5.0.1? Just ReInstall the full 5.0.1 ISPW then unlock with UltraSn0w? and insert the simcard and restart the phone, then all will work normally?, or do i need to create a custom IPSW with BootLoader Untouched?
    Please let me know before i Update the phone!
    Thank you so much :)

  • Kikoshi

    Forgot to mention that my baseband (Moden Firmware) 04.10.01

  • Htaw

    All steps followed and done except UNLOCK.
    Ultrasn0w 1.2.5 installed but after reboot, NO SERVICE.
    Iphone 3Gs. 5.0.1. FW 6.15.00

    same configuration for me…all will be well.just reboot and reinstall ultrasn0w…it maynot have been installed correctly…no need to downgrade or to worry .Chill :)

  • Lashsuddj

    thanks works perfect

  • Santiago

    awesome!!!!! i donated already!

  • Santiago

    PS: when are we gonna get the unlock for 4.11.08???

  • GPrat

    BEWARE!! I followed the instructions to the letter and my 3GS baseband got updated to the non-unlockable 5.15.06!!! The 1st paragraph mentions briiefly the need to use a custom IPSW, but the detailed instructions DO NOT. Plus RedSnow would not take a no_updateBB IPSW I prepared offline. I thought that it was safe and my #3GS is not unusable unless I update to the no-GPS 6.15 firmware.

    PLEASE UPDATE the instructions more clearly.
    Will the Dev team develop the 1.59.00 downgrade to 5.13.04 as declared possible?
    Help…

  • Bashar_tap92

    what is the difference between RedSn0w 0.9.10b3, RedSn0w 0.9.10b2 and RedSn0w 0.9.10b1?

  • Zattak92

    redsn0w 0.9.10b1 had problems with Launchtl, redsn0w 0.9.10b2 fixed that, but had problems with mobilesubstrate, so redsn0w 0.9.10b3 fixed that.

  • Zattak92

    no, u just need to download the ipsw and redsn0w. then you can do it offline

  • Zattak92

    cydia dosent work ether? try shutting down and restarting.

  • Zattak92

    make sure you have the correct ipsw selected

  • KWeb

    Are you relying to ultrasn0w? if yes don’t install stock firmware. Rather use custom firmware cause it will not update your baseband. if you already did, Install iPad baseband to your iPhone.

    Poor me, my 3gs could not recover to 4.3.3

    Thanks and enjoy

  • John Bradshaw

    Redsn0w crashed during the “Downloading Jailbreak Data…” screen. It was around the 1:30 mark in the video above. IPod screen still shows that message.

    Ipod 4G (wifi) / 5.0.1 stock

    Looks like it rebooted OK (after about 15 mins sitting on that screen). I reran it as admin and it seemed to work this time. FYI for anyone that might have this situation.

  • Mohdumair

    go to extera and just boot

  • heads-aching

    Ok, so as with others, I have followed to the letter the video, and the instructions. But I am new to this; after doing so, I have installed Ultrasn0w, but still cannot find any service. Just sits there Searching… eventually, it says No Service. I have downloaded & used (via Extras > Select IPSW) IPSW for 3GS and tried re-jailbreaking but still no dice. BB; 06.15.00 & serial is XXX44… please help? Should I restore in iTunes & then rejailbreak again?

  • Buucha

    When there will be UNLOCK for iOS 5?? As i understand, this ir only jailbrake, right?

    can someone tell me how i can change the zip form ipsw, on widow 7 usually it was on properties and then change the las platform, but now it difrent!!! i really need this thanks!!! and also dose this work for 5.0 this unthethered??

  • dar27

    I updated my Jailbroken 4.2.1 to 5.0.1 and the Jailbreak worked fine, as outlined above BUT now I cannot open my any SMS messages that I have received. First i thought it was just affecting my old messages (from before update to 5.0.1) but it’s even happening to new messages received since the update.

    What happens is, I open ‘Messages’ and see all my messages in there but when I try to go into any of them, Messages immediately closes.

    Anyone know what’s going here?

    Thanks

    An untethered jailbreak is useless, DO NOT DO IT. I am very upset with this redsn0w. I jailbroke it then I tried to restore it and guess what? YOU CAN’T! I’m so upset. If anyone knows how to help it though, I have the error (21) when trying to restore.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Andy-Brazeal/ Andy Brazeal

    how are you trying to restore. back to factory or just restore the stuff you have previously purchased on cydia

  • TheAppleSalad

    I had this problem too, It’s very common on the 3Gs apparently. What I used for original Jailbreak and unlock was Sn0wbreeze for 5.0.1, got the same fault. So I did the Jailbreak & Unlock via Redsn0w 0.9.10b1 again, (without checking the box “Instal Cydia” again and Checking “Instal IPad Baseband”). Reloaded this, installed Ultrasn0w via Cydia, put in the SIM, and it worked! If you have the iPad Baseband (06.15.00) DON’T Restore via iTunes as your iPhone will be Bricked (Comes up with connect to iTunes symbol). Hopefully this will work for you, as it did for me. Good Luck :)

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Andy-Brazeal/ Andy Brazeal

    Yes you can use this version of redsnow to jailbreak that is the same phone and baseband I have and had no problems
    Just follow the directions

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Andy-Brazeal/ Andy Brazeal

    download the 5.0.1 ispw file from here and when you open iTunes hold down command and hit restore at the same time then select the file you just downloaded and it will restore fine. thats on a mac.
    if your using windows you do the same thing except you hold down the control button when you hit restore

  • LeanderV

    hye, I have an Iphone 3G S and I updated to ios 5.0.1 and used the first jailbreak redsnow b1, the problem I have now, is that I don’t have any connection from my provider.. could this be caused by the fact that I upgraded my baseband? Because I have no connection at all. So I Wcan’t text, or call anyone. I can update to ios5 and jailbreak all I want and it works , but i never get any connection. PLEASE HELP, because if i can’t text or call anyone I’m basically stuck with an expensive ipod touch. PLEASE HELP ME, why don’t I have any connection with my network. I can’t even go on the internet, only when i’m at a wifi spot. What should I do??? And i know that there is a new redsnow but the new one fixes other bugs, nothing that has to do with connection problems. PLEASE HELP

    If I jailbreak, it will delete everything, and when I restore, my photos and contacts aren’t saved. Why does this happen and can I make my back up save photos and contacts, too? Becasue last time I updated my itouch it saved my photos and contacts but I put its back up on my iPad and there were no photos or contacts ever with the back up. SOMEONE PLEASE ANSWER THIS BEFORE THE IPAD 2 AND IPHONE 4S JAILBREAK FOR IOS 5.0.1 COMES OUT!!! And how come some apps don’t have all their data and In app purchases saved?

    got problem with Cydia – just jb iphone 4 5.0.1 using redsn0w 0.9.10b3 for Windows, ran smoothly with Cydia installed. But when in Cydia,
    Manage->Sources->Edit->Add will cause Cydia to abort,
    “About” button on Home page also causes it to abort;
    Manage Account->Sign in with Google->try going into either email or password field will cause Cydia to abort.

    I’m trying to install ipad baseband 06.15.00 on iphone 3gs 5.0.1. Baseband is currently 05.16.05. I have the untethered jailbreak. After putting in DFU mode, it says preparing to install ipad bb.

    If you errors:

    a) did you select your ispw of your specified device (you have to download it off apple’s links- google them)

    b) did you fail in dfu mode

    c) did you download the whole of redsn0w

    d) are you connected to the internet

  • BriliantiCom

    Well, sorry to say it, but there is no way to downgrade your bb 4.11.08 once it has reached that version… you gonna have to wait like most of us for an unlock… well, you can use the phone as an iPod till we get a fix…

Should be upgrading the ramdisk just let redsnOw do its job after that your done:)

    Have iPhone 4 with IOS 5.01 installed.

    Yes, Extras first, select ipsw, go back, jailbreak, and install cydia.

Applications such as Mail and Facebook don’t notify me when i receive anything. I have set all notification settings for these apps but still nothing. I also ran iPusher and it says push notifications are working fine. Can someone PLEASE help me with this! It’s driving me crazy!

  • xXPWNXx

    Same thing just happened to me, to fix this try resetting your iphone by holding down the power and menu keys until the screen goes black, then after a few seconds hold down the power button until the iphone turns on again. Try Cydia again, the application may still appear to be a white square but the app should launch this time.
    If this does not work, someone posted below that you may have to re-jailbreak using the same method and then do a hard reset of your iphone, and then it should work.

    Same problem with iBooks since redsn0w 0.9.10b3c jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 on iPad1.
    Everything else seems to work fine but not iBooks. I have already tried uninstalling and re-installing, but to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Chriscfrosty3

    Does it cost money

  • finnyD

    iBooks is broken for me too since redsn0w 0.9.10b3 for iPad1 5.0.1iOS. BEWARE!. Please help if you know how to fix. Already tried to uninstall & reinstall iBooks. It’s still not working. Error comes up “Configuration Error” “There is a problem with the configuration of your iPad. Please restore with iTunes or redownload iBooks.”

    I quit and restart and it asks if I want to Sync iBooks Do you want to sync your bookmarks, notes, and collections between devices? This will send them to Apple to keep in your iTunes Store account. I select “SYNC,” the same Configuration Error briefly pops up, goes away, and then the Apple ID Password screen comes up.
    I enter password, OK and back to Configuration Error which pops up multiple times.
    Then Sign In Required Screen comes up saying, “Tap Continue and sign in to continue syncing with other devices”
    Configuration Error
    Apple ID Password/ OK
    Configuration Error x2
    Sign In Required and stays in the loop indefinitely.

    Please help if you know what to do.

  • Austin Roberts

    no

  • Austin Roberts

    it will void your warrantly towards apple, but with your contract with your network i’m assuming you have an iphone, it does nothing.

  • Austin Roberts

    you need to UNLOCK your iphone. don’t not f*** with your baseband. Unless you need to for sure because if so, you need to update your baseband to an ipad’s (6.15.00) ONLY DO THIS AS A LAST RESORT.

  • Austin Roberts

    downgrade your firmare to a lower .ipsw (lower than 5.0.1) then try installing the ipad’s baseband.

    Hello, I jail broke my iPhone 4 5.0.1 (brought in the UK with Orange) and I installed a new sim card (PCCW in Hong Kong), but it does not work i.e. no signal nor can I manually select a the carrier. Can anyone help?

  • Mugy7

    There is a package on cydia for fixing this problem, it does it by installing ibooks as a native app, like youtube for example.
    Search for ibooks fix and install the one for ios5(check description/title)
    Worked for me

  • Mugy7

    Check you selected teh ipsw file(5.0.1) and try changing usb ports

  • Mugy7

    No, but a jailbreak for that is expected in a few days/weeks

    It may be a different wireless format.

    Use Xbackkup and save to cloud. After you upgrade and rejailbreak, re-install Xbackup and load your back up. Will save all you’ve done in cydia.

    HELP PLEASE!!! My ipod touch is BRICKED. I have tried everything, looked at tutorials on youtube, google and nothing works! I had a tethered jailbreak on my itouch 3g on the 5.01 firmware. My batteries ran out, and of course i tried to reboot it through redsn0w but it didn’t work! No matter what i did, it was stuck at the apple logo. I tried restoring it through itunes but the error 1600 kept coming up. I tried everything from custom firmwares, SHSH, itunes restore, ifaith, ireb, downgrading, pwnagetools. Everything i knew how to do and from tutorials on both mac and windows. Now my ipod is stuck on the usb with the arrow pointing at the itunes symbol. When i try to restore error 21 comes up. IS THERE ANYONE WHO CAN HELP ME? IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!

    I have one question does it work? because i have try a lot different jailbreaks but they don’t work. Is this one really work

  • Johnno200

    I just been through 3 days of similar crap – turns out I accidentally jailbroke as old bootrom when I had the new version.
    Anyways, phone was dead, wouldn’t boot at all, etc, etc, – error 1600 and 28.
    Go to youtube and find a video on how to take your phone apart, and then another on how to remove your board. Separate it from the battery for at least 30 min’s – that clears out the memory. Reassemble and reinstall 5.0.1 via iTunes – it’ll run smoothly.
    I used iDetector to see which bootrom I have, and this time around everything works brill!
    Just tethered – which is a problem, as the new version can’t untether!

  • JayBee

    It worked a treat. Thanks so much. Bottom line is, follow the instructions and you cant go wrong. And if there is something wrong? = you didnt obviously follow the instructions properly!

  • Amfhan

    If you still can’t see the CYDIA, your ihpone is not jailbroken.

  • Bhushan kamble

    First you will need to restore to custom IPSW through Itunes, after that you can jailbreak,

    you can do that by Selecting your iPhone from the list of devices on the left.

    Now hold down Shift and click the Restore button. Restore is preferred as it won’t create any wasted space on your iPhone.

  • Bhushan kamble

    UNLOCK your phone, by installing UltraSn0w utility from cydia, even if it didnt work, jailbreak it again by selecting instll ipad baseband.

Or is t better do be patient and wait till omar unlocked the 4.11.08? what to do what to do?? TNX

  • A1984

    I did it for my mom and it worked fine, she has a factory unlocked one. What i did is a clean restore i.e. if you download the 5.0.1 and you’re a pc user you go to iTunes and press shift+restore and select the iOS 501. Mac user? press cmd+restore and select the file. And of course if your phone is unlocked you need to follow slightly different steps. This way your phone is wiped clean if it has any bugs i was told.. Well any how it worked for my moms phone since the release and it didn’t give ANY problems.. Hope it helps!

  • A1984

  • cleoo

    For the most part my jailbroken 3GS works; iBooks doesn’t. Certain Cydia apps cause problems, I added a theme and it caused all of the Cydia packages from working. Luckily, a hard reboot restored it. AptBackup caused major problems–I backed up the Cydia packages, but when I had to restore the packages, AptBackup decided to delete all of my regular apps and the data behind it!!! Not reliable…just remember what Cydia apps you had. It was a pain to restore everything…

    This is my first time jailbreaking anything . I found it to be a very simple process . My only complaint is a small one ….it seems to slow down my iPod a LOT . On to my questions …… Is this jailbreaking thing anything more than just a theme changing tool ? I thought there would be lots of places to download many free apps and places to download free music ….where can I find these apps and music ?!?

  • squidbaby

    This is the first time I have tried to jailbreak anything , and it was fairly easy to do . I think it still has a few bugs and it slows down my iPod a LOT , but overall I think I am happy with it . I thought it would actually have all sorts of free apps and places to get free music but I have not found that to be the case . It seems to be mostly just a theme changing tool .

    Yup open the program in run as administrator, download the 5.0.1 IPSW and then click on extras in the program then choose the IPSW that you downloaded to use for the jailbreak. And it should work.

    Hi & thank’s for the effort,
    I’ve an iPhone 4 on ios 4.3.5 with tethered jailbreak + turbo sim (baseband 4.10.01). I wanna update it to ios 5.0.1 but I have some questions before doing this:
    -if the custom firmware created by Redsnow will not upgrate the baseband to 4.11?
    -if a custom firmware will recognaze my gevey sim?
    -is it not better waiting for ios 5.1 that should fix some bugs like enhancing battery life ?
    -finally, is there an untethered jailbreak in view for 4.3.5 ?
    Thank you & have a nice day !

    i have an iphone 3gs on the 5.0.1, i jail broke it using it, and when i went into cydia, and tried downloading two different apps from the hackulo repository depot, appsync 5.0 and installous, and both times after it rebooted, everything was gone except newsstand, has anybody had this problem, or can help?

  • http://twitter.com/CSM48 C.S.M.#48

    restore it in itunes

  • nt21

    all you need to do is a simple restart and everything will be back

  • nt21

    try to use snowbreeze. Snowbreeze is not suppose to change the baseband at all when updating, restoring,or whatever

  • nt21

    with pas experiance i would just reboot then toggle the airplane mode on then wait like 5 min then toggle off and go to homescreen the just lock the phone and come back to it later in about 5-10 min. if that doesnt work just redo the process.

  • nt21

    Its alright. it happened to alot of people. The thing is that if you update you jailbrocken phone which is on ios 4.X.X to ios 5, The jailrocken data you got before is still on there and interferes with the ios 5 jailbreaking process when trying to install files and reboot.
    I recamend that you should of created a backup , restore to ios 5, jailbreak, then resore your back up you made. =)

    when your phone was done jailbreaking it should have been on the homescreen. your phone should be restorable via itunes and should pop up. try reinstalling itunes if all else fails

    Been trying to jailbreak my iPad 1 since JB5.0.1 came out.
    Always stuck on Uploading Stage 1 ; I have left it for a while even a few hours thinking it just need to take time to upload.
    No problem JB multiple iphone4 and iphone3g; somehow the iPad is the only having issue. Even try different Macbook Pro, MacAir, iMac. Although have not try using a Windows PC to do the JB. I even try reformatting my MacbookPro(thinking it might be the laptop, silly me) and redo the JB, no success. Still stuck at the same area “uploading stage 1″

    Anyone encounter this problem with iPad 1 here?? Please help.

    thx and cheers…. -k

    It’s old Bootrom and 6.15.00 baseband, have done whole process again but still doesn’t work.

  • Apple Helper!

    Did u forget to install ultrasn0w from Cydia? Search for it and install. Till then you will not have service.

  • Apple Helper!

    Try resetting NETWORK SETTINGS. It won’t do any harm to ur OS or data.

  • Apple Helper!

    As i know, u shouldn’t enter DFU mode before you run redsn0w. It should be done during the process, when redsn0w tells you to. It should be the problem coz u haven’t mentioned details.

  • Apple Helper!

    no need to check that box i think…. what is your FW version???

  • Apple Helper!

    I think ur device is in recovery mode. While u r @ dat screen,, press and hold “home+power” till the device turns black and the apple logo pops up. Then let go. Or try downloading “Tiny Umbrella”(Search in google) and run it. Pay attention to the messages that pops up on it. there u’ll find a button on the right hand upper corner saying “EXIT RECOVERY”. If it also doesn’t work out foe you try restoring & re jailbreaking.
    Cheers mate!!!

  • Apple Helper!

    Jail breaking does not change the base band. Only f u try to update via iTunes will change it. Go ahead with the jail break.

  • Ty

    You MUST reflash the BaseBand if you are on 6.15, this is the only way to make the network work again… REFLASH BASEBAND…

  • Apple Helper!

    u must be kidding rit????

  • Apple Helper!

    Hey!!!!! Dnt delete ur Anti Virus man!!!! Norton is CRAZYYYYYYYY!! Just disable it untill u get the job done!!

  • Apple Helper!

    Its like this….
    I wud not recommend u 2 update to 5.0.1 coz still its full of bugz… i think u r trying to update coz ur fed up with the tethered JB. U’ll hate ur phone more than ever if the bugz eat ur iOS. I’ve updated both of my phones & had to downgrade in 2 days.(iPhn 4, 04.10.01, using Gevey & iPhn 3Gs, 06.15.00, ultrasnow) Its much bad as that.. If u have JB’n ur 4.3.5 device already, get the SHSH blobs & save them in a safe place. If it has 4.3.3 in it, there is a way to dwngrade without losing data or changing base bands. Gevey works perfect on 4.3.3. and it is the only good latest version that can be JB’n UNTETHERED.(i’m on it now!) If u need help on it mail me @ “” coz its a long story.

    If u still wanna update, the safest way is to build a custom IPSW to manually update ur iphone. it will not update the baseband(coz i have done it 6 times). Still the SHSH blobs are vital. If it has 5.0.1 in it, its possible to get ur job done!

    Its a long process & mail me. I will surely help you. I’ve done this with da help of “iFaith, iReb & iTunes”.

    Cheers mate!!

    Hey I’m having a little problem for some odd reason with my untethered iPad2 jailbreak. Everytime I try to open some of my apps it won’t open it at all, but if I search the app in the homescreen it would open witch that’s not Normal. Now also when I restart my iPad sometime it would work someone please help I’m going insane here can’t figure it out…maybe if I delete the apps I downloaded and just leave cydia would you think it would work normally???

    Every time I try to follow these steps exactly, it says that “That IPSW is not supported by this version of redsn0w. Fingerprint: 28b7a51af92e1f9a5756942916c603aa2bf11d5a”

    I still have a perfectly functioning 3G. Am I unable to update to latest software and then re-jailbreak? It’s not a big deal if I can’t but I was curious and did some searching and came here. I have 4.2.1 currently.

  • checkoutseattle

    I’m going through the steps to jailbreak my 3gs. However, I’m stumped with a couple issues. First, can someone tell me what week my phone was made from this serial number? 86111…and then tell me if it’s made before “week 40, after or in week 45, or between weeks 40 and 45″. The example in the steps doesn’t say to reference a particular year or if I’m supposed to go by the year in the example itself. This info is supposedly helpful to redsn0w. Second, what’s this whole deal about not being able to do an untethered jb under “Modem Firmware 05.16.05″ because that’s what I have?

    Problem: “No Service”

    Specs: 3GS, Serial# QR1471P8EDG, IMEI 01 285400 184831 2, ICCID “No SIM”, Baseband 06.15.00

    What I’ve done: iPhone already had 5.0.1 and current baseband. Changed to iPad 2 baseband with redsn0w 0.9.10b4 and 5.0.1 (jailbreak and install Cydia). Unlocked with ultrasn0w 1.2.5, restarted springboard and after I inserted SIM card it searched for a while and said “No Service”, restarted iPhone and once again “No Service”

    Restored with custom IPSW via 0.9.10b5 today, re-jailbreak and re-install Cydia. Unlocked with ultrasn0w 1.2.5, restarted springboard and after I inserted SIM card it searched for a while and said “No Service”, restarted iPhone and once again “No Service”

  • saviour

    Thanks!!!! i was a bit confused about the terminology and impatient to understand it. I installed the custom 5.0.1 OS via redsnow. Then unlocked it via ultrasnow. When it kept showing no service i uninstalled ultrasnow and took the risk with the 6.15.0 baseband and installed it with redsnow. Now my phone is unlocked and working with any random carrier in India. Surprisingly the location service is working and pinpointing my exact location. Will check out the GPS outside to see if it is via the cell phone towers or the actual GPS.

    after doing everythig it says, it works up until the reboot, where it reboots my iphone and i have a normal iphone that is not jailbroken… so it basicallly doesnt work. can anyone help?

  • tvztvz

    I mistakenly ran the redsn0w jailbreak without manually identifying the 5.0.1 IPSW, though the phone was already running 5.0.1. It seems to have worked nonetheless as Cydia is installed and working. Are there any implications of bypassing this step that I am overlooking and should I restore the phone and redo the jailbreak?

  • Aeg_mp5

    hi, iphone mo hindi pa unlock, kailangan mo ang original sim card para ma reboot mo,pareho din yan sa akin… dapat hindi k n nag reboot :)

  • Mikoy039

    i’ve done the same thing..did your apps,files . . .etc gone missing after the jailbreak?

  • tvztvz

    No, everything is still available and it is working as expected, though I have held off on syncing the phone with iTunes until I get an answer. My concern is that possibly by doing it this way it will make it difficult to restore a pre-jailbreak backup. In other words, if I update to iOS 5.1 in the future without a jailbreak, will I be able to recover all files, apps, etc., from the backup? I am just not sure why it is recommended one manually select the iOS prior to running the jailbreak, unless of course this is just to ensure that the user is in fact running the appropriate iOS for the jailbreak in question.

  • Slava Lungu

    Hey, so I had the Boot loop/cycle problem. I just held down the home and power button, until the “connect to itunes” showed up. I connected it to itunes, and restored the ipod, and then re-jailbreaked the device. It is now working fine! So just give another try if it doesn’t work the first time.

    Thanks for the Jailbreak!
    God Bless!:)

    what are the 3rd, 4tth, and 5th numbers of your serial number?

    Mine are 148 which means my phone came off the assembly line in 2011 and it was the 48th week of 2011 thus the 1. if it was 2010 it would be a 0 and 2009 is a 9…get it?

    Im almost positive if you have a 3gs after week 35th 2011 (135) you cant unlock and youre screwed if you try. It just work and youll turn your phone into an expensive iPod.
    If its a number lower then 135 then youre fine just do this.

    If its before 135 then go ahead and DL iReb5 and simply put the phone into the mode, plug into itunes and shift->restore with the 5.0.1 ispw and you should be good.

    If you get an error 1600-1604 or a 3194 error then thats easy to fix. The host file is blocking the fix so go into Tinyumbrella and open it, go to advanced, and click or make sure “set hosts to Cydia on exit” is UNchecked.

    BUT if you have a phone made after week 35 2011 it a shame bc to the best of my knowledge youre dunzo.

  • Amit

    I have Iphone 4, which is jailbroken. I upgraded to IOS 5 through iTunes without jail breaking, after which there are no signals in my iPhone, i tried to jailbreak it but no no signals yet. Please suggest what should I do. Will my iPhone work if i downgrade it and jailbreak.

    thanks a lot

  • Phishtix2634

    That 3gs is done. See the 3rd, 4th and 5th #’s for serial? That says the phone was manufactured 2011 on the 47th week…..147….your screwed. Anything after 135 (35th week 2011) cant be unlocked on any baseband yet. If an attempt uis made what happened to you is exaqctly what is supposed to happen…searching, no service. trust me bro its no use. There is nothing you can do. IDK all you guys JB’ing and you dont know this deal with the 35th week of 2011? I do feel bad for you but as Keyshawn Johnson from ESPN says: “CMON MAN!”

  • Phishtix2634

    Read my reply above and pray to God your serial is lower than 135…..

  • Sdessisso

    I did the jailbreak on my iphone 32GB, I have Cydia, but my tmobile sim card won’t work. I turned of 3g. I’ve enstalled apps, been on youtube, facebook. When I try to get a custom IPSW it opens to useless files. I have 5.0.1, 5.16.0.1, I upgraded itunes. Should I use ultrasn0w now or what should I do?

  • Ghostmanmatrix

    You messed up your baseband.

  • Tomikejason

    Upgrade to latest software from itunes.

  • Tomikejason

    jailbroken and unlock are two different thing. With Jailbreak you can install 3rd party apps and jailbreak has nothing to do with unlock.

  • Tomikejason

    Reload Cydia and hopefully it will work properly..

    when the option to “setup as new phone”, “restore from icloud” & “restore from itunes” came up, itunes would not allow it to restore for some reason.

  • Irstarkey

    DON’T DO IT!!!!!!!! search and read up on how to lock in your baseband so you bring it with you otherwise you can fuck up BIGGGG time…i wish I had a link to give you…you should be able to find one on google. it has become a fairly mainstream topic as people weren’t smart like you to ask questions first. good luck

  • Shane24

    I have an iPhone 4 5.0.1 AT&T. I tried to jailbreak using redsn0w 0.9.10b1c. After the JB was finished, the phone rebooted and there was only 1 app on the phone. It was the book app you get with the 5.0.1 update. The logo for phone, text messages, app store, email, etc. was gone! I reset the phone from my back-up. Does redsn0w 0.9.10b5c fix this problem? Or am I doing something else wrong?

  • fuck you

    i followed all the instructions for the UNTETHER JAILBREAK as described above, but when it finished its telling me its TETHERED. wtf. if this is something you guys know about you need to stop telling people this is and untethered break, i just lost a months worth of data for a shitty tethered break. thanks assholes

  • Lingle1112

    I see a lot of people not verifying date of manufacture on the 3GS new bootrom. Suggest you verify your date of manufacture before you turn that phone into a very expensive IPOD. I just successfully updated my Iphone to 6.15.00 baseband and I’m on the 5.0.1 ISPW. Everything worked great except for a small blimp. I am using the original Redsnow 0.9.10b1 and my speaker icon will flash no sound,sound,no sound, sound. Then it’s ok for awhile then it starts again. I haven’t installed any other packages other then Ultrasn0w and Facebook app. Does anybody no if using the current Redsn0w will fix this issue? Haven’t found this in any other forums. Thanks Pod2! Money is on it’s way! :)

  • Thomas Smith81

    Hi this may sound stupid but I’m playing around with jailbreaking and I have an iPhone ’0G’ as I call it, the very first one that came out….came out with I believe it has 3.1.3 software cause I updated it i think 4 days ago with Spirit and it was working fine but I haven’t used a Sim card yet I was just using Wireless to use Cydia….for some reason, today I try to do a ‘erase all content’ from phone ‘settings’ and now it won’t boot up…just apple logo and a non-spinning loading dial! If I leave it charging (in wall, not comp.) it every 5 min it powers down and goes right back to there! What do I need to do in order to boot up this iPhone? Keep in mind, I need nothing other than an empty phone as original, and jailbroken a + but with or without doesn’t matter! Thnx

  • Brian

    I have a new iphone 4 that is already operating with 5.0.1. Where do I begin in the instructions above to jailbreak this phone? For example, am I just to download Redsn0w and begin at “STEP 3: Now click on “Jailbreak” then “Install Cydia”.???” Reason: I don’t need the 5.0.1 update, I don’t already have any existing jailbreak program, nor do I have some 5.0/5.0.1 configuration. Thanks

  • Brian Part Two

    OOPS!!!! In regard to my question under the name BRIAN — I’ve just discovered another possible issue that I hope you can explain how to deal with: I’m also locked into a plan with VERIZON, which I’ve learned has some sort of a blocker on it to prevent jailbreaking — which should be a bit illegal I’d think. Thanks!

  • Ahsan Anderson

    This is tricky because I’m in the same boat here, but the only solution (I’m trying it out atm) is to get the iP4 to force update to 5.1 through the onboard Software update and getting it to lock itself into a mode where it has to be restored again, followed by being updated. You won’t be able to preserve your BB I don’t think, but if you could find an exploit for that in the 5.1 ispw then kudos to you (it’s harder than it looks but I’m getting there, slowly…)

    Have you tried using redsnow to enter pond dfu mode yet? I had no luck but maybe you will?

    This happened once before, and the remedy I found was to get in my car, go to my girlfriends, take her MBA from her, and use that, which for some reason worked a charm and saved my Bacon (I think Apple are finally onto me!)

    I used the 5.0.1 Custom on her MBA and I was good to go.

    EDIT: Have you updated your iTunes? 10.6 has been released and I have a funny feeling that with apple trying to lock down on Jailbreakers they simply aren’t letting modded ISPW’s through their servers during the confirmation part of things…

    EDIT #2: It didn’t work. It says there was an error – I’m going to dust off my iMac and try using that to restore it (Probably with no luck!)

    i rebooted my device (iphone4 ios 5.1) because i was a requirement for a cydia tweak i just downloaded then i went to redsn0w and clicked just boot and put it into DFU mode but when it got to “uploading first stage” the bar went all blue but instead of going onto the next step a window pops up saying ” redsn0w had encountered an unnextpected error and needs to shut down immediatly” then redsn0w shuts down and i leaves my device in DFU mode i took it out of DFU mode and put it to the apple logo then off and tried again the same thing happened why wont redsn0w make it past that stage and has to shut down???

    hey people, of course this 5.0.1 is for user who hasn’t upgrade their iOs to 5.1, and, for 3GS old bootroom its always untethered, and for the another one, there’s another step, and try to appreciate this website instead of mocking it, if your’e iPhone stuck, it’s your own risk!! please be a smart jailbreaker, not some smart-fucking-ass one!

  • steph

    I have been untethered on 5.0.1 for months. Lately having crashes and issues so want to restore and re-jailbreak. Trying to restore in Itunes with 5.0.1 firmware but I keep getting errors. I know it is no longer possible to downgrade to 5.0.1 if you accidentally upgrade to 5.1, as Apple is no longer signing 5.0.1. But I can’t find any information on whether this also makes it impossible to just restore using 5.0.1. Can anyone help?

  • Polfabrega

    Hi there!
    I am not very good with jailbreaking things and I did exactly what you are not supposed to do:
    I “ILLEGALLY” UNLOCKED MY IPHONE 3GS AND AFTER THAT I WANTED TO UPLOAD THE IOS 4 TO IOS 5 BUT OBVIOUSLY FAILED!”
    Is there any hope?
    Any advice?
    Thanks a lot!

  • Johnylee

    steph,
    Use latest version of I-faith to build custom “signed” IPSW and DFU your iphone from I-faith too. (Do not manual DFU). Last, use Itunes to restore that “signed IPSW”. I noticed the custom file created by Redsnow ( NO_BB_—-)won’t work during restore, (error 3194). Good luck

  • Peter2999

    I have 3GS w/5.0.1 IOS. 

    I have downloaded the stock ipsw(matching the version on my phone), since it was missing on my computer.

    I used that stock ipsw to make a custom ipsw using ifaith.

    I have redsn0w 0.9.10b8

    My question which IPSW do I use ,stock or custom to jailbreak my iPhone ?

  • Johny_f

    i have a 3gs running ios 4.2.1 jailbroken with green poison. havent updated in ages! can i go straight to 5.0.1. and jailbreak without any issues?

  • Peter2999

    Yes. Updated and download latest Redsnow for your phone 3GS that is compatibule or u can use the latest version of Absinthe , which is compatibule for 3GS running iOS 5.1.1 Download iFaith and make custom ipsw, before u JailBreak. Since u have jailbroken before,there is no need to go further

    Let me know if u need further help

  • Peter2999

    Yes you can. Use latest version of “Redsn0w” or “Ansinthe 2.0″-make sure u have stock ipsw and custom ipsw by ifaith software. Make sure your device is compatibule with either of solutions talked about above. Redsnow u will select from extras your stock ipsw and hit back and hit jailbreak. Custom ipsw use it if u mass up on JB but u will have to use ifaith to restore with your custom ipsw vi iTunes. Good luck

    I am not responsible for your iDevice having problems-do it your own risk.

    My best advice reaserch it for your self. It took me 3 weeks of reaserch before JB

    I have an iphone 3gs ios 5.01.01 jailbroken with green poison, but after I jailbroke and recovered phone backup from itunes, my stock icons dissappeared. My service is not thru AT & T…. I cannot get into the safari app either so that i can reinstall the url for the internet services. I cannot make call or send/receive texts. I have already restored my phone a few times and still nothing….. are there any other options I have??

  • Brwa

    Hi.. I have an iPod Touch 2 generation, iOS 4.2.1 and already have
    Cydia 1.1.6 on it. my question is can I upgrade iOS to another version
    above mine? Or even do I need to upgrade? because recently I wanted to
    download and install a free tourism application for my country Iraq, but
    couldn’t because a message came and said you need to have iOS 5 or
    above. and lately when I open Cydia it need a couple of minutes to
    figure out some problem and DATA error on a black background which I
    cannot figure what they are but I still can use Cydia at least the much I
    can!! if you could help me I will appreciate it. thank you
