Jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 On iPhone, iPad, iPod touch Using Redsn0w

Apple has just released a snappy sequel to its first iteration of iOS 5, citing bug fixes and general housekeeping as the main reasoning behind the necessary update, entitled iOS 5.0.1.



Those looking to enjoy some of the many thousands of jailbreak tweaks and mods on iOS 5 need look no further than Redsn0w, the ever-reliable tool released by the iPhone Dev-Team almost in conjunction with every software update the Cupertino company cares to throw out.

We have tested it and can confirm that the current latest version of Redsn0w for both Windows and Mac works with the just seeded iOS 5.0.1 build.






iPhone 4, GSM, jailbroken on iOS 5.0.1

Below is the complete step-by-step to get you jailbroken on iOS 5.0.1.

Before we get started, please consider that:

The jailbreak doesn’t currently work on the iPad 2 nor the brand new iPhone 4S.
This is a tethered jailbreak, so whenever you need/feel compelled to reboot your iDevice, you will have to connect it to a PC or Mac running Redsn0w in order to jump-start it.
Finally, please consider that if and when the untethered jailbreak appears, you will have to start a fresh – you will not be able to simply ‘upgrade’ your jailbreak as it were.
So, hopefully you’re clear on the above, so let’s get jailbreaking!

Step 1: Download the latest version of iTunes (10.5) for Windows or Mac.

Step 2: Connect your iOS device to your PC or Mac and backup everything up. Although it’s a simple process, always better to be safe than sorry.

Step 3: Update to software version 5.0.1 Beta; download links of which can be legally found on iOS Dev Center only.

Step 4: Grab the latest version of Redsn0w, depending on your operating system, for Windows or Mac.

Step 5: Start Redsn0w. Click on “Extras”, and then click on “Select IPSW” option to manually select the final public version of iOS 5 (NOT iOS 5.0.1) for your device. Download links for iOS 5 can be found here.




Step 6: Now go back, and click on "Jailbreak", and opt to "Install Cydia". You will then be led through a sequence to place your device into DFU mode. Once your device has achieved DFU mode, Redsn0w will apply the jailbreak.



Booting Tethered:



Step 7: Once the Cydia installation is complete, you will need to boot the device into a tethered state in order for the jailbreak to work – something you will indeed be required to do every time you reboot. Enter DFU mode, and in "Extras", select "Just Boot".



We keenly await news of a possible untethered jailbreak on iOS 5. There have been a couple of hints from experience members of the jailbreaking sphere, such as MuscleNerd, P0sixninja and i0n1c. You guys will be amongst the first to know if and when an untethered solution does surface, for all devices including iPhone 4S and iPad 2, along with all the details as usual- so stay tuned for more!
