Semitethered Jailbreak for iOS 5 Gets a Major Update

BigBoss has announced a major update to his Semitethered jailbreak solution for iOS 5.

v0.9.1 incorporates Saurik's new mobile substrate. Thanks to Saurik, we are entirely rid of all the daemon patching – this means there's no more daemon patching or restarting. Most the semi-tether work is now done by mobile substrate. The semitether package from the repository now protects your iOS 5 notification center plugins and gives you the option to patch mobile safari so that it will work on the non-jailbreak reboot mode. I'm still looking into patching mail, if possible.

Changes:
1) Much more stable with new mobile substrate
2) Can patch safari so it works in the non-jailbreak reboot mode
3) App to monitor the status of your semitether and reapply. Check after cydia installs.

Please note this is still a beta and requires a beta version of MobileSubstrate. An update from MyWi and Appsync should bring compatibility with those as well.

You can find instructions on how to perform the Semitethered jailbreak of your iOS device here.

Show me what iOS 5 offers an iPhone 4 user that I don't already have and I'll care about a jailbreak. So underwhelming.

How about 3 times faster browsing? Is that enough of a reason?

How about FaceTime over 3G? (My3G) More than 12 items in a folder? (Folder Enhancer) The ability to move more than one icon at a time (Multi Icon Mover) Quick and easy access to any setting/toggle (SBsettings) More customizations and tweaks than you can shake a stick at...

I had the same problem but did a teether boot now through redsnow and it worked. But it's not stable that's for sure.

Wow I'm so glad I didn't update! I didn't know installous and appsync didn't work.

He did mention that he was waiting for an update for MYWI to be compatible. Unfortunately I ended up having to restore my phone twice before I realized it...
