iOS Untethered Jailbreak

[chris888222]

Damn I give up. I want to install Siri for my iPhone 4 now.

But I still don't get how to create that proxy with spire thingy

I'm kind of new to jailbreaking. I'm a tech guy, but jailbreaking isn't my knowledgeable area, so I apologize if this is has an obvious answer, but right now, I'm using iOS 4.3.1 and would like to update to 5.0.1 using this untethered jailbreak.

Would I have to restore my iPod? Also, is there a way to back up an entire iPod (music, apps and their savedata, cydia apps, etc) all at once in an easy method that is would be easy to restore my iPod back to? iTunes no longer works for me, so if there's a method that doesn't require iTunes, that'd be great!

Cheers to the new jailbreak!

iTunes is pretty much the only way to backup the data, short of copying all of the necessary files manually and one by one.

There hasnt been any unlock for newer Basebands for a while..
JB is useless for me without any Ultrasnow (

Okay, does this latest version of redsn0w work with iPad? I have a wifi-only iPad 1. I just need to know if it works. I can handle the rest.

Okay, one last clarification. I'm currently on 4.3.3 (8J3) -which I'm assuming the 8J3 is the jailbreak. Should I just update to 5.0.1 official through iTunes, then perform the jailbreak? Or is there another way to update that might be considered safer?

That'll work fine, although you'll lose all cydia tweaks.

I'll write down what I have before I do it then. That way once I have it back I'll just reinstall. Do Cydia based apps uninstall (like emulators) or just the tweaks? I think the only major one I had was SBSettings. Thanks for the help!

 

[HaniKazmi]

All apps and tweaks from cydia/an deb files will uninstall, although if you reinstall them their settings are still preserved.

can I do this if I'm on 5.0 ?

unless you are on an A5 product, why not.

I'm in half a mind whether to bother jailbreaking anymore

I feel the same way at this point. I'm annoyed enough that it's a pain in the ass for me to switch between two installs of iTunes. I don't want to add jailbreaking back into the mix considering how little I use it at this point.

Now installing Siri GUI.

 

[clonesniper666]

Will have to re-jailbreak my Iphone 4 when I get home at least I have redsnow downloaded before I have to go out.
