Pod2g's iOS 5.0.1 Untethered Jailbreak for Non-A5 Devices Has Been Released!
Comments

A huge THANK YOU to anyone that helped contribute to this glorious win over the fascists at apple who continue to believe open source is not the way. For those of us who do not believe in conforming to the will of company software design and have gained freedom for one's own devices, this calls for celebration. I, and so many others that have now broken the chains of these unneeded restraints, deeply thank you for your efforts and expertise where we unfortunately lack. You guys (and girls) are the beacon we look to when we need superheroes to save us from Apple's evil plight. Again, Thank You All.

I keep getting a "No identifying data fetched" message and then nothing. Any ideas?

Does this work with iPhone 4 S???

No. A4 device refers to Iphone 4. 4S is an A5 device

Okay I'm cnoivcned. Let's put it to action.

anyone having a problem with skype app?! it won't stay in multitasking on, it just chrashes...

I'm grateful you made the post. It's cleeard the air for me.

...

Is there anyway to hacktivate using redsn0w?

after jailbreaking 4th gen ipod touch on 5.0.1 cydia keeps saying it cannot comply can anyone help me fix this please? thank you in advance and also than you for the info on how to jailbreak

Can't add any repositories in cydia... iPhone 3gs

Delete all sources except Cydia and then add them back on the main Cydia page (there's a tab called Cydia) by clicking on "More Package Sources".

Anyone having a problem with iBooks app - seems as prior to the previous Redsn0w release, iBooks crashes when booting from SpringBoard? I've ran the installation over the top of my untethered 5.0.1 jailbreak. Can anyone confirm the iBooks problem?

It's a known bug with this jailbreak (it's a different technique than before jbs). I actually use A LOT iBooks, so I unjailbroke my iPhone until a fix is done. The rest of the phone seemed ok :)

same here, iBooks doesn't work after untethered JB

Thought so. It's a shame as they'd fixed this in previous version of Redsn0w, tethered of course.

There is a fix in the insanely repo called iBooksFix2 that works. It's temporary but at least it works.

i have the iPhone 4, the baseband 2.10.04. I bought it two years ago with out unlock. Is there anyway that ipod2 could unlock?

the 4 wasn't out 2 yrs ago

For those asking regarding Gevey Sim. Yes it is safe to update on 5.0.1 as long as you PRESERVE THE BASEBAND. (Iphone4>5.0.1>untethered>tmobile) Hope this helps :)

thank for infor

so...fw 4.3.3 bb 4.10.01 apparently can be unlocked with gevey on 5.0.1. but if it happens to not work..can i revert with ifaith?

Try updating your phone with custom baseband 5.0.1, if you are on 5.0.1 with custom baseband and tethered jailbreak. You do not need to re-install the custom firmware for untetethered jailbrek. Just open cydia and install Corona Untether that will make your phone tethered to Untethered. Just make sure to preserve your baseband. Gevey sim works perfectly on 4.10.01 Baseband.

iPhone 4, (04.11.08). I had a successful jb, but now ibooks is giving a syncing error and won't connect. Gives a error messege saying there is a problem with the configuration of your iphone. Please restore with itunes and redownload ibooks.

i am getting the same message have u managed to find a fix for it

Fix in the insanely repo works

when you uninstall appsync and the ipod touch 4G resprings all the apps but the newstand are missing and i have to restart the ipod.

can anyone confirm if their gevey ultra still works after updating/jailbreaking 5.0.1? it was reported a while back that apple fixed the gevey exploit in 5.0b2 but ive been hearing conflicting reports ever since. thanks!

Gevey ultra will work on IOS 4.x and 5.x as long as you preserve your baseband. The latest redsn0w has the option of creating custom 5.0.1 firmware with no baseband update. I have an iphone 4 with gevey ultra running ios 5.0 and gonna update to 5.0.1 tonight.

@Ivan did you update to ios 5.0.1? can you confirm that the gevey ultra is working? i heard that the other gevey are working(supreme, pro) but there are some issues with the ultra.

i can confirm that the gevey ultra works on 5.0.1 w/ baseband 04.11.01. however, after a few restores and rejailbreaks it seems as though this jailbreak is extremely buggy. not sure if thats caused by the gevey or not, but it is pretty annoying. kinda wish i stayed on 4.3.5.

What bugs are there? I'm on 4.3.3 and i would like ro upgrade it .Thanks in advance

Wait a minute, you wrote that the ultra work with 04.11.01? You mean 04.10.01 right?

ok, not having much luck here. Have tried on two seperate pc's. redsn0w runs ok, following directions, enter DFU mode, when iphone starts to boot, redsn0w crashes. Running Win7, each have 4 GB or ram and have no other issues. Anyone else seeing this? Probably try on mac @home tonight but that is a pain in the balls

try edit the compatibility the redsn0w.exe into windows xp (service pack 2) - (properties - compatibility - check the "Run this program compatibility for" and select windows xp (service pack 2) HTH

thanks, but compat mode didnt help.

I got stuccoed at patching kernel half way

Updated mine and everything's great! Thanks!

Finally for a untethered jailbreak, been waiting all this time. Can't wait to jailbreak now lol, without worrying to reboot!! 😉 Good job Pod2G!

This is nice, I just opened cydia on my tethered jailbroken iPhone 4 and installed the package "corona 5.0.1" and now my phone is untethered. This is a first because you would normally have to hook the phone up to the computer and run the jailbreak again. Jailbreaking evolved.

Please check with UNLOCK boyz we have been waiting for it good job with jailbreak but unlock can kill apple. comeon go with UNLOCK for 4:11:08

what is hybrid 5.0/5.0.1 configuration ?

I have been waiting for this but have a question. I accidentally updated my iPhone to 5.0.1 when it got released, I'm a little confused if I'll be able to benefit from this jailbreak. Can someone please clarify ? I'm a newb

will this expose the exploit they used and undermine the A5-devices jailbreak?

Of course. That's why they did it. Seriously, why would they simply tell Apple about the exploit when they can put all of this work into JBing the phone. Thanks for your very educated concern, though.

Any idea if the dev team is close to an unlock for baseband 4.x?

idiot, they probably wont release unlocks anymore since apple sells FACTORY UNLOCKED phones for a while

Stupid, Apple has been releasing factory unlocked iPhones since version 1. Immature dumb ass.

Okay, all I need now is an unlock.

It's seems Apple has block their server from signing the firmware update. Any advice? I'm unable to update to 5.0.1 from 4.3.3 for Iphone 4.

Hi, What is the error code If "21" then just remove ...gs.apple.com on the hosts file

I can't upgrade either - over the air also downloads, then fails. No code. Just fails.

what do u mean remove host files? how do i do that?

Start----> Run and copy and past the following: notepad C:windowssystem32driversetchosts

im on mac... and i tried editing it and im still getting a error 21 message

does the jailbreak require an online connection? can i do it when not connected to the internet? anybody know?

Nice to read about this Jailbreak article in the iOS iClarified app ;)

Hi Just rebooted a couple of times and the icons are back Thanks a million, The JB is Smooooooth

Working Smoothly but with some issues on 3GS, The native apps lost their icons in the jailbreak process, I am unable to see the safari, Itunes and Gamecentre icons, the apps are working though any ways, thanks for the JB

Wahoo it works perfectly Finally All Credid to pod2g great job

Just ran with iPhone 4, works perfectly. Thanks Pod2g!

Thank you all for the good work. Especially to pod2g.

Does it activate iPhone 4 GSM when restored without AT&T SIM? Or bypass activation?

vielen dank... thanks a lot... mercie... mille grazie... muchas gracias...

Guys, What is a hybrid 5.0/5.0.1 configuration? Thanks

Semi-tethred ?? :-)

Such a relief! Thanks for the hard work!

THANKS!!!! :)

Oh man, I got too excited and didn't read the post correctly. Thought it said tethered jailbreak for the iPhone 4S *facepalm* I ran for my USB cable and booted back in2 MAC from Windows. LMAO *sigh* FAIL!!! On my part

Yea, I almost did the same thing. Lack of JB is only thing keeping me from upgrading to 4S from my 3GS.

Great Work guys long awaited JB is here nice gift for x-mas

Will this jailbreak work with apple tv?
