Over the years, I have had the opportunity to play around with couple of different apple products ranging from iPhone to iPad and hence I also invested a fair amount of time learning to jailbreak these devices since jailbreaking is not something illegal but at the same time it can be used to pursue ill intentions as well. I feel it is important to know about jailbreaking since iOS is a very locked platform and lacks the elements of customization and also it is locked to the carrier and since consumers are paying such premiums to buy the devices, they should have the ability to customize and unlock it and hence jailbreaking comes into place.
Step 1; Connect your device to iTunes and back up your device as a fail safe option! Please refer to the screenshot for details:
Step 2: Download the latest version of Redsn0w according to your operating system and also download the iOS firmware your device is running on. Google the links for Redsnow and the firmware. Please refer to the screenshot on how to check your firmware version:
Step 3: Make sure your device is connected to iTunes and then turn it off. Now reboot the iOS device in DFU mode by following this short video:
Step 4: Once you are in DFU mode, launch Redsnow.Click Browse and select the firmware you downloaded. Refer to the screenshot:
Step 5 Make sure “Install Cydia” is checked off and anything that might interest you. (Cydia is the key for jailbreaking so make sure it is checked off). Refer to the screenshot:
Step 6 : Click next and wait for your iOS device to boot .
Step 7: All DONE! You iOS device is now jailbroken!
If you need any further instructions or have issues please feel free to contact me.
Disclaimer: This may void your warranty but if you restore it to your original firmware then there are no more issues to be concerned about!
Best,
Yameen.
It’s been 2 years already that i’m using apple’ products and i never knew how to jailbreak an iOS device. Thank you for this post.
You are welcome. Let me know if this works out for you.
Nice I’ll remember this post if i ever get an iPhone at any point in the future. I like androids better thought because they are like pc’s and well the iPhone is like that mac for obvious reasons you could do a lot more with an android and you got to go through all the trouble of hacking your iPhone because Apple is being real cheap. This is as personal opinion though.
I totally agree. I am not a huge fan of apple either but for those that are locked to this so called brand franchise, this is kind of a way to get the bang for your buck so I thought this was relevant.
Very clear instructions. Thanks! Is this a tethered or untethered jailbreak? All the images are helpful though they’re from several different sources and it makes sense to credit them in some way.
Great info, thanks for this. I’m going to try it on my iPhone 4S.
@Mikhail Gershovich: This jailbreak can be tethered and untethered depending on what device you have. Any device newer than an A4 chip (ipad 2, iphone 4 onwards) is tethered only. Thank you for clarifying the credit part since I was not sure about it.
@Jorge: Let me know how it goes!
Clear instructions… Thanks.! I loved the way you have embedded all those images… They are so clear and helpful
nice artikel guys 😀
already jailbreak old iOS devices, now iOS 6.1 jailbrak via evasi0n…
Heya i am for the first time here. I came across this board and
I find It really useful & it helped me out much.
I hope to give something back and aid others like you aided me.
If you want to install Cydia manually u can actually skip Step 5. Make it unchecked like what is share in http://www.cydiapps.net.
I don’t even know how I stopped up right here, but I believed this post was good. I don’t realize who you are but certainly you’re going to a well-known blogger for those who aren’t already 😉 Cheers!
