springboard keeps crashing after jailbreak and keeps going into safe mode. had to restore and remove cydia.
-
is this untethered ?
-
What about the iPad 1? and the iPad 2? Will it come anytime soon?
-
@chirag you have some serious issues :(
-
Installed Cydia fine, downloaded rotator and phone froze on apple logo. tried to enter dfu mode but it won't. now i have a usb cable logo below the itunes logo but computer/itunes doesn't recognize. how do i restore it from here?
-
just because u were born an asshole, doesn't mean u have to act like one!!! relax ****!!!

I usually never comment but this is it... @Mark you're right. Something really wrong with this guy!! :) Just Chill Chirag!! :)
-
Another note guys, since I jailbroke my iP4 running iOS5 I noticed YouTube app no longer works either... Just doesn't connect!!!
-
Why bother to break from jail when you can break from Hell? It's called Hellbreak. ;P
-
followed all the steps and finally got it jailbreak, reboot as per the instruction about white cydia icon as well, so the cydia icon is not white anymore but once i click to open the cydia it shown opening then crashed, tried to do the reboot for many times but still crashed... what the hell is that? somebody help, thanks!!!
-
Thank you :) we at apple would love to close this soon . So all you hacking losers , will $uck up !Sent from my iPhone

Whoul it not be wise to list the known issues ( winter board ) instead of just saying use at own risk?
-
Thanks for the step by step. Jailbreak anything I can, but it wasn't enough to remember all the steps. Having done it, I had restore. The tethered jailbreak was really buggy and having to go into DFU mode every time I reboot is too cumbersome.
-
That was the final straw for me on this jailbreak. I'm sure they'll get it right eventually. I wish I would have waited for the untethered before updating. I had never tried tethered before. Yikes!

I have never jailbrokeing a iPhone before and just got one from sprint. The iPhone 4. Can someone tell me how to jailbreak my phone. Iv heard alot of good things about jailbreaking. Thank

My experience was when I tried to upgrade from 4.3.3 to the new iOS 5.0 on a 3GS. After jailbreaking and an auto reboot, I get the "No Service" on my phone. It's been so for the last three days, though the phone is unlocked and takes callers str8 to my voicemail. repeated attempts to go into Airplane Mode failed each time to establish a connection. I've tried just about everything there is, including downgrading back to 4.3.3. Nothing!
-
so you mean this is a tethered jailbreak? or untethered?
-
Well maybe if they had actually read it all, they would know its tethered. Unless that person is illiterate then I suggest they go back to Hooked on Phonics and get their act together.
-
When will the untethered Jailbreak will be out....???Thanks
-
I agree with chirag, lazy ass muh' Fuckas need to learn how to read an article! But seriously, is it untethered?!?
