Apple Complete iOS Jailbreak Guide

[metamaster]

Now that you mention it.... not so subliminal anymore lol

EDIT: When using redsn0w, I seem to get stuck at the uploading ramdisk stage. Anyone know how to fix it?

 

[Dialexio]

If we're on the same wavelength about the "subliminal messages..." It's meant to get people that lazily try to copy and paste the guide.

metamaster, try running redsn0w.exe in Compatibility Mode (for Windows XP SP2). You should be able to reboot your iPod safely and try again.

 

[metamaster]

I tried it on two computers. One in compatibility mode, where redsn0w crashes at uploading ramdisk and on another without compatibility, where it just froze. I got pissed off and got a hold of a mac.
Problem solved

By the way, to reboot it I just held down the power button for a few seconds.

I have a question.I jailbroke with limera1n last week and cydia always freezes when I try to go in the section with new stuff.,,any one know why?

 

[metamaster]

Did you try waiting for it to finish loading or does it freeze instantly when you go to that section?

 

[Joktan]

I waited like 5 minutes and everything was frozen..I have to reboot to get cydia working again..
So yes as soon as I go there it freezes.

 

[Dialexio]

I'm sorry to say I don't have a slightest clue to your issue, Joktan.

Perhaps it's a bad installation of Cydia..?

The guide's redsn0w section was consolidated to conserve space. If you could, please provide feedback on its layout!

(I can revert it to the old format if the new one doesn't work out.)

I've experienced that too. snowbreeze. it always either freezes on black screen or the cydia itself. it also crashes.

fixed it with a restore.

 

[metamaster]

Feedback? Well... All the steps are there lol. I don't actually have anything to complain about it. But I was wondering why you keep the other versions of redsn0w there.

 

[Joktan]

well thanks...i just have a notifcation that says i need a upgrade and i have no idea what it is...other then when a upgrade comes i am fine with it...it showed up one time and all the others it just freezes..

I was wondering, with the release of this whole "jailbreak for life" piece that was said to have occured with greenpois0n - do we still have to wait for a jailbreak for the latest firmware or can we just jailbreak straight when the latest comes out?

Well....It will be tethered. It's only un-tethered thanks for comex's one of many kernel hacks.

So, we will have to wait and see

ah......so the whole "you'll need a computer to turn it back on" routine aint quite left the building yet then.
well thats nice to know i suppose

 

[Joktan]

dont we need another teathered exploit that can be tied with limera1n or greenpois0n to make it unteathered...like one in the bootrom again?or something like that?

 

[iFish]

Well....If we don't find another exploit to use with geohot's bootrom exploit, it will be tethered.

So, no matter what we can do that.

Let's say comex finds another userland exploit or any exploit rather. Than it will go un-tethered.

 

[Joktan]

i meant jailbroke for life kinda thing..you need a another exploit that is not in the firmware for it to be unteathered for life without finding new exploits,,

[DarkShinigami]

is there an unteethered jalbreak im missing or is it still unteethered for Ipod touch 2g mc model for 4.1?

 

[metamaster]

It would be untethered for life if the bootrom exploit was untethered. But since the bootrom exploit in both limera1n and greenpois0n is tethered, you need another exploit to untether it. The one that untethers greenpois0n and limera1n is a userland exploit (probably) so when a new firmware comes out, the userland exploit will get overwritten and will leave behind the tethered bootrom exploit (which can't be overwritten)

EDIT: Is there any way to jailbreak the Phone 3g on 4.1 without using an ispw? (greenpois0n style)
