Jailbreak Your iOS 4.1.3 Devices With Pwnage Or Redsn0w [News]

Posted on 06 April 2011. Tags: 4.1.3, Devices, Jailbreak, News, Pwnage, redsn0w

If you’ve already updated your iOS device to 4.3.1, you might be happy to know that the iPhone Dev Team has just released an update to Redsn0w and Pwnage Tool, bringing an untethered jailbreak to your device. For iPhone users who depend on ultrasn0w to use your phone on the carrier of your choice, this update is not for you. You will have to wait a little longer, until a new update to ultrasn0w is released. iPad 2 users will also not be able to benefit from the latest jailbreak, while other iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 (GSM) users, along with iPad 1, iPod Touch 3G/4G and Apple TV 2G users will be able to go ahead and get their jailbreak on.

The Dev Team have provided both Windows and Mac OS X versions of RedSn0w and a Mac version of Pwnage Tool [Torrent link]. For the time being, Apple TV 2G users can only use Pwnage Tool to jailbreak their devices.

Redsn0w is possibly one of the easiest ways to jailbreak your iOS device. For a detailed, step-by-step guide on jailbreaking, one of the best places to get tutorials no matter what you device is, head over to iClarified and select the appropriate guide for your device.

How To Downgrade Your iPad From iOS 4.2 to 3.2.2 & Jailbreak It

Posted on 06 January 2011. Tags: 3.2.2, Downgrade, from, iPad, Jailbreak

style="border: 0px none;margin-left:20px;float:right;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/ipad-downgrade-intro.jpg" />Did you upgrade your iPad to iOS 4.2 and are now regretting it? Are you tired of waiting for a decent jailbreak to come out for 4.2?

Well, I was; so last week I decided to downgrade back to 3.2.2. Read on if you’d like to do the same.

Will I miss href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/ios-42-ipad-mac/">all the incredible new features that 4.2 brought with it? Not really – let’s recap what exactly they were.

id="more-61489">

Air Printing: Was canceled anyway, and support is limited to a few new HP printer models.
Folders: Sure, I’ll miss that. But not in a life-changing way.
Mute button: Absolutely not – give me a physical screen lock button any day!
“Multi-tasking”: Quick switching between Safari and other apps was about all this was good for, otherwise the majority of the apps I use already save their state when they are closed. Also, collecting apps in the never ending multitasking screen really annoys me. Frankly, I never wanted them to multitask in the first place – having to close them manually? No, thank you.
Incompatibilities: Perhaps the best feature of 4.2 are those critical apps you have that now crash!

The process is surprisingly simple, and will work on both Windows or Mac.

NOTE: Downgrading will mean you cannot restore from your current iPad backup, so you will have to start from scratch without your most recent settings – unless you have a restore saved from before the 4.2 upgrade, as I do.

Disclaimer: Jailbreaking is never a 100% safe process, but we will only ever relate to you what has worked for us. However, I can tell you as a veteran iPhone and iPad jailbreaker, there were numerous occasions when I thought that I bricked my device but there has always been a solution. As a general rule though, if you cannot afford to buy another one should the worst happen, you should stay away from hacking any kind of hardware.

Now that’s out of the way, let’s start the actual tutorial.

Step 1: Restore to iOS 3.2.2

href="http://appldnld.apple.com/iPad/061-8801.20100811.CvfR5/iPad1,1_3.2.2_7B500_Restore.ipsw">Download the 3.2.2 firmware (official Apple link) and save it somewhere.

Edit your hosts file to include the following line – this will redirect attempts by Apple to verify your restore.

For Windows users

Open Notepad with Administrator privileges by right-clicking on the notepad icon in your start menu and clicking “Run As Administrator”. From within notepad, open the HOSTS file located at C:/WINDOWS/system32/drivers/etc

Add the following line at the end of the file, then save.

Done, move on to step 3.

For Mac users

Open up a Finder window and from the “Go” menu, choose “Go to Folder”. Type in the following, and enter when the dialog appears:

From there, find and open the “hosts” file with TextEditor. Add this line at the end of the file. You will get a warning about the file being read only, just edit anyway.

Save the file to your desktop, then drag the one you saved into the /etc folder to overwrite the read-only one. You will need to authenticate as an Admin user to do this.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/edit-hosts-file.png" />

Turn your iPad off, then hold down the power and home keys simultaneously for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, keep holding the Home button, but release the Power button. Your iPad will enter what is known as DFU mode, and iTunes will ask you to restore the firmware from somewhere. Do not let iTunes download and install the latest firmware for you.

Option-click on restore (Mac) or Shift-click on Restore (Win) to bring up the choose a firmware file dialog. Choose the 3.2.2 firmware file you downloaded and saved to your desktop earlier.

This worked fine for me first time, but others have reported getting an error along the lines of “The iPad could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1004)” or “iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes“. In this case, href="http://thefirmwareumbrella.blogspot.com/">download TinyUmbrella from here, run it, and click on the “Kick Device Out Of Recovery” button.

Step 2: Jailbreak 3.2.2

Now that you’re back on 3.2.2, don’t bother restoring from your backup yet if you’d like to jailbreak that thing too. We’ve href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tags/jailbreak/">covered jailbreaking via methods before, but I’m going to add these instructions here because they worked for me, specifically on the iPad.

href="http://www.limera1n.com/">Download limera1n from this page, run the app, and click “make it rain”.
After a while, the button will change to “hold power and home button”. Do so, and be ready for the next step.
After about ten seconds, the app will tell you to “release the power button, but keep holding home”. Do so, and your iPad will enter recovery mode, Limera1n will install its happiness onto your iPad, and all will be good with the world once again. When everything has finished, your iPad will be off. style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/limerain-win.jpg" />
Turn it on, and connect the iPad to your Wi-fi network as your settings would have been deleted.
Once connected, launch the Limerain app (the app will be installed onto your second home screen, not first, don’t panic! Also, the icon may be blank).
Select Cydia, then hit the Install button. style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/ipad-cydia.jpg" />
You should now have Cydia. Congratulations, your iPad is jailbroken. Just to be on the safe side, perform a reboot before running Cydia for the first time. You can restore from a backup if you have one.

Hope that this tutorial was useful to some of you who upgraded and regretted it. We will, of course, show you how to jailbreak your iPad on iOS 4.2 once a suitably-tested and established method has been released, but sadly that day has not yet come at the time of writing and downgrading was simply the only option for me.

Well, I was; so last week I decided to downgrade back to 3.2.2. Read on if you’d like to do the same.

Will I miss href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/ios-42-ipad-mac/">all the incredible new features that 4.2 brought with it? Not really – let’s recap what exactly they were.

id="more-61489">

Air Printing: Was canceled anyway, and support is limited to a few new HP printer models.
Folders: Sure, I’ll miss that. But not in a life-changing way.
Mute button: Absolutely not – give me a physical screen lock button any day!
“Multi-tasking”: Quick switching between Safari and other apps was about all this was good for, otherwise the majority of the apps I use already save their state when they are closed. Also, collecting apps in the never ending multitasking screen really annoys me. Frankly, I never wanted them to multitask in the first place – having to close them manually? No, thank you.
Incompatibilities: Perhaps the best feature of 4.2 are those critical apps you have that now crash!

The process is surprisingly simple, and will work on both Windows or Mac.

NOTE: Downgrading will mean you cannot restore from your current iPad backup, so you will have to start from scratch without your most recent settings – unless you have a restore saved from before the 4.2 upgrade, as I do.

Disclaimer: Jailbreaking is never a 100% safe process, but we will only ever relate to you what has worked for us. However, I can tell you as a veteran iPhone and iPad jailbreaker, there were numerous occasions when I thought that I bricked my device but there has always been a solution. As a general rule though, if you cannot afford to buy another one should the worst happen, you should stay away from hacking any kind of hardware.

Now that’s out of the way, let’s start the actual tutorial.

Step 1: Restore to iOS 3.2.2

href="http://appldnld.apple.com/iPad/061-8801.20100811.CvfR5/iPad1,1_3.2.2_7B500_Restore.ipsw">Download the 3.2.2 firmware (official Apple link) and save it somewhere.

Edit your hosts file to include the following line – this will redirect attempts by Apple to verify your restore.

For Windows users

Open Notepad with Administrator privileges by right-clicking on the notepad icon in your start menu and clicking “Run As Administrator”. From within notepad, open the HOSTS file located at C:/WINDOWS/system32/drivers/etc

Add the following line at the end of the file, then save.

Done, move on to step 3.

For Mac users

Open up a Finder window and from the “Go” menu, choose “Go to Folder”. Type in the following, and enter when the dialog appears:

From there, find and open the “hosts” file with TextEditor. Add this line at the end of the file. You will get a warning about the file being read only, just edit anyway.

Save the file to your desktop, then drag the one you saved into the /etc folder to overwrite the read-only one. You will need to authenticate as an Admin user to do this.

style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/edit-hosts-file.png" />

Turn your iPad off, then hold down the power and home keys simultaneously for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, keep holding the Home button, but release the Power button. Your iPad will enter what is known as DFU mode, and iTunes will ask you to restore the firmware from somewhere. Do not let iTunes download and install the latest firmware for you.

Option-click on restore (Mac) or Shift-click on Restore (Win) to bring up the choose a firmware file dialog. Choose the 3.2.2 firmware file you downloaded and saved to your desktop earlier.

This worked fine for me first time, but others have reported getting an error along the lines of “The iPad could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1004)” or “iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes“. In this case, href="http://thefirmwareumbrella.blogspot.com/">download TinyUmbrella from here, run it, and click on the “Kick Device Out Of Recovery” button.

Step 2: Jailbreak 3.2.2

Now that you’re back on 3.2.2, don’t bother restoring from your backup yet if you’d like to jailbreak that thing too. We’ve href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tags/jailbreak/">covered jailbreaking via methods before, but I’m going to add these instructions here because they worked for me, specifically on the iPad.

href="http://www.limera1n.com/">Download limera1n from this page, run the app, and click “make it rain”.
After a while, the button will change to “hold power and home button”. Do so, and be ready for the next step.
After about ten seconds, the app will tell you to “release the power button, but keep holding home”. Do so, and your iPad will enter recovery mode, Limera1n will install its happiness onto your iPad, and all will be good with the world once again. When everything has finished, your iPad will be off. style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/limerain-win.jpg" />
Turn it on, and connect the iPad to your Wi-fi network as your settings would have been deleted.
Once connected, launch the Limerain app (the app will be installed onto your second home screen, not first, don’t panic! Also, the icon may be blank).
Select Cydia, then hit the Install button. style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/ipad-cydia.jpg" />
You should now have Cydia. Congratulations, your iPad is jailbroken. Just to be on the safe side, perform a reboot before running Cydia for the first time. You can restore from a backup if you have one.

Hope that this tutorial was useful to some of you who upgraded and regretted it. We will, of course, show you how to jailbreak your iPad on iOS 4.2 once a suitably-tested and established method has been released, but sadly that day has not yet come at the time of writing and downgrading was simply the only option for me.

[How To] Jailbreak iPod Touch 1G / 2G / 3G & iPhone 1G / 3G & 3GS on 3.1.2 – BlackRa1n – Windows

Posted on 13 July 2010. Tags: 3.1.2, Blackra1n, iPhone, iPod, Jailbreak, Touch, Windows

TheiPhonePress.com http This is a tutorial on How To Jailbreak all devices using BlackRa1n. This is very easy for all iPod Touch users. You couldn’t imagine an easier jailbreak. The iPod Touch 3G is a tethered Jailbreak meaning that once you turn it off you can’t get it back on again without connecting it to your computer and running BlackRa1n again. more info at the bottom. iPhone users, it is a little more complicated. If you rely on Ultrasn0w for you network connections then do not update to 3.1.2. Don’t do anything just stay on the firmware and baseband that you are on now. If you are on an official carrier then go ahead it’s fine. What is a tethered jailbreak:- When you Jailbreak your iPod Touch 3G with Blackra1n it will mean that it becomes a tethered jailbreak. It can run on it’s own however it may need the support of a computer, hence the name tethered. If you device goes off then you won’t be able to get ti back on again without plugging it back into the computer. Please Subscribe, Thanks George

Jailbreak iPhone 3GS 3.1.3 MC new bootrom 5.12.01 and iPod touch with Spirit

Posted on 12 July 2010. Tags: 3.1.3, 5.12.01, bootrom, iPhone, iPod, Jailbreak, Spirit***, Touch

Spirit is an untethered jailbreak for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch on the latest firmwares. Spirit is not a carrier unlock. If you currently are using a tethered jailbreak, you have to restore to use Spirit. Do not upgrade if you use an unlock on an iPhone 3G or 3GS. (You can, however, restore to 3.1.2 if you have SHSH blobs for that version.) Requirements Any iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch on firmware 3.1.2, 3.1.3, or 3.2. An activated device: one not stuck on the Connect to iTunes or Emergency Call screen. Any version of iTunes 9 (including 9.1.1). Syncing with iTunes before trying this is highly recommended. (An issue has been reported where Spirit deletes the photos on the device. I will investigate this; in the meantime, please make sure your photos are backed up.) Note: On iPad, all this is still sort of beta. Some packages in Cydia, not designed for iPad, might screw up your system and require you to restore. Be careful. (And no, Cydia’s appearance is not final.)
