How to Jailbreak Your iPhone 4 Using RedSn0w (Mac) [5.0]
Comments

Hey, I have my iPhone 4 GSM on 4.3.5 with Gevey, I want to put it on 5.0 (without jailbreak) but I can't do it like in the tutorial. iTunes gives me the "not ilegible" message or anther 1XXX error. I've tried downloading from different sources, using Tinyumbrella, different versions of RedSn0w, updating iTunes from 10.5.0 to 10.5.1... everything but I just can't. Any suggestions?

Forgot to say I'm on 04.10.01

Use tinyumbrella and uncheck "Set hosts to Cydia on exit."

Done that at the first time but didn't work :\

I upgraded to IOS 5.0 keeping my baseband 0f 4.10.? and unlocked using Redsn0w. I downloaded a program from Cydia. When installing, the phone never turned back on. It got stuck with the Apple logo on. I attempted to use TinyUmbrella to get it out of restore state. That didn't work, so I tried to restore in iTunes using the custom ispw that I had previously upgraded to 5.O on. I received an error message (1600) that my phone could not be restored. I attempted to jailbreak and install Cydia again. It went through all the steps and said it was done, but I am stuck with a black screen with a bunch of steps ending on :Applem2ScalerCSCDriver:Added framebuffer device: AppleCLCD id: c7da5000 with the curser on the next line. How can I get my phone working again?

same problem..anyone help pleasee...

I seem to be striking out. I jail broke my phone with the latest version of redsn0w and I downloaded an SMS tone in Cydia and when it rebooted it put me into safe mode. I tried exiting safe mode, which put me right back in it. I tried re-jailbreaking and got the same result. I even tried restoring my phone and iTunes gave me an error and left me still in safe mode. I am at a total loss. Please help if you can

By safe mode, do you mean DFU? If you only get as far as the Apple logo, use redsn0w and click "Just Boot."

will this with the iphone 4s???

I downloaded an SMS tone in Cydia and on the reboot (which I did tethered) it put my phone in safe mode and I cant get out of it. PLEASE HELP!

did you try the last step "just boot"?

Yes, I've done that twice. Any other suggestions.

If you find yourself in safe mode, just tap on the "safe mode" text at the top of you phone. You should be given a choice to reboot your phone. You can try jailbeaking again. They released the a new RedSn0w yesteday, so perhaps it will work better for you. You can also go watch the step by step video I made: http://www.hacksmods.com/2011/10/iphone-4-ios-5-jailbreaking-using-redsnow/

Issues after jailbreak: Can't connect to Youtube, Push Notifications keep popping up for every app, some apps from 4.0+ won't work.

That's odd. It works fine for me. Try a tethered boot again to see if it clears up your issue. Many people forget to do this after the jailbreak. Otherwise, try jailbreaking again with the new version of RedSn0w that was just release. The notes said you can rejailbreak on top of the existing jailbreak.

anyone know about the windows version when will be relased?

first of all this doesn't of jailbroken all my phones this way before and it has worked in the past its too took slow on countdown

So I was able to Jailbreak but when I installed Cyntact or SBS Settings and I need to reboot my device, it gets stuck on the boot screen..halp!!!

check the last step and do just boot tetheret right now

Do I just plug it in? While it's in the boot screen?

Yes just plug it in and do just noir tetheret

Just boot tetheret i meent sry^^

I'll give that a try.

Hey! I jailbreaked and installed Cydia with no problems at all. However, I'm stuck in Safe Mode. I haven't installed anything in Cydia yet to cause these problems. Anyone with similar problems?

I have the same problem. I downloaded a SMS tone in Cydia and on the reboot (which I did tethered) it put my phone in safe mode and I cant get out of it. PLEASE HELP US!

Use redsn0w to Just Boot.

You are incorrect about what a tethered jailbreak is. The only time you need to tethered to a computer is when you reboot or shutdown your iPhone. I don't know about you, but I never need to do that in my day to day life. Tethered jailbreak works perfectly fine. Please go read up on it and understand it a bit more.

I know how u fell.....

Hi what about if i want to upgrade baseband ? usually when we lunch redsn0w we have iPad baseband to choose but this time am see ( iPad baseband to choose) ? how can we unlock iPhone or update baseband

same here some apps wont open...safari...mail...maps....just to mention a few

same goes as mine may be the exploit is not been fix....

you need to boot tethered. follow the instructions in the tutorial.

worked for me

follow but after u restart yr phone the cydia not able to launch again and afffected the safari and email.... i this the jailbreak release is still not complete update... just wait for a stable version then jb agian :D

Works fine for me. Most people forget to do one final reboot after the jailbreak process has completed. You Need to do a Boot Tether one more time. Watch towards the end of this video for instructions: http://youtu.be/US3zDfG7VmE

Ur stupid Apple could revoke your privileges .. Over $4 ? Don't u have a job ? What are going to do with $4 ? you can't buy a gallon of milk and loaf of break with it..

Give someone on the internet my Universal Device ID for $4? Seems legit. :|

My ip4 world from 4.2 to 4.3.5 with this instruction but now it is no service. What can I do to fix this problem?

Why bother with this specific Jail break? Is there any important advantage over the Jail break on the current unthethered jailbreak? Nir Hus

I need help downgrading off this beta 4, it seems like i bricked my phone..

first open up redsn0w and put ur iphone in pwned DFU mode, now open up tinyubrella and start the TSS server. Now download the 4.3.5 IPSW and shift click on itunes to restore. when you get the conncet to itunes you will need to install cydia under redsn0w 0.9.8b4. in order to install you MUST download the 4.3.4 IPSW and jailbreak/tethered boot with it, remeber NOT 4.3.5 IPSW, but 4.3.4 instead.

does cracked app works?

Yes they do work, just make sure once you jailbreak you first install Installous, if you have the apps in itunes

This guys are stupid or are being paid by apple???? some much crap about burning exploits and.... now deliver this, before the actual IOS 5 is deliver??? does apple will close the exploit before they release the final version of IOS??? Dumb assess

no new exploits were used. please read the dev teams site before you talk about thing that you obviously have no clue about. they are doing all this for free and you bash them , when what your bashing is just YOU not reading..

this is an old exploit

Ran the jailbreak and booted it tethered. None of my apps would load except for cydia lol Had to restore. Thus the life of a jailbreaker.
