How to Jailbreak Your iPod touch With iLiberty+ (Windows)

Posted March 26, 2008 at 7:14pm by iClarified
These are instructions on how to jailbreak your iPod touch using iLiberty+ and Windows.

Before following these instructions you should have already restored your iPod touch to 1.1.4 using iTunes. You should have the iPod connected to your dock/computer and iTunes should have detected the iPod after restore at least one once!

Step One
Download iLiberty+ 1.2 from here to your desktop.


Step Two
Double click the downloaded file (iLibertySetup_1.2.0.65.exe) on your desktop to launch the install program.

Step Nine
iLiberty+ will open onto the standard tab. Check the operations you would like to perform. If you are jailbreaking an iPod touch then you only have to have Jailbreak selected.

Step Ten
Click to select the Payloads tab. From here you can select additional payloads to install while jailbreaking. We will leave this alone for now and go back to the Standard tab. Note***: A tutorial on how to download and install payloads will be posted in the near future.

Next I got a message that asked me to disconnect then reconnect my iPod touch and click the OK button.

Step Twelve
You will then notice a status bar appear. Unfortunately, mine only displayed until around 13% when the iPod rebooted into recovery mode and then it disappeared. No worries though, the jailbreak procedure continued and finished successfully. I was not notified that it did by the software. Just watch your iPod until it comes to rest at the "Slide to unlock" screen.

I've been searching the web without luck for a while for my use case. I got a brand new iphone. It is still unopened. Do I still need to restore to 1.1.4? Do I need to have itunes on at all? Or do I just run iliberty+ after connecting iphone from box to PC? TIA

Should I restore my ipod? iTunes said it had detected an iPod in recovery mode, like you had mentioned, but I'm not sure whether or not I should restore. My previous experience with ZiPhone (which sucked) was that when I restored the iPod, the jailbreaking software was erased as well. I'm not sure I should restore. Thanks for your help.

To Jason: Try selecting the installer apps or cydia when you jailbreak it... the last tap, select it if you didn't do it before with iliberty+

Hey I have an 16gb Itouch and was wondering if using iliberty+ to jailbreak and add installer will erase my january upgrade that I bought with applications like mail, stocks, notes etc? Also will I be able to sync my itouch using itunes right after and get all of my dates entered into my itouch back on it or will I lose those?
