Finally JB my iphone 4s.Hopefully a fool proof guide.1)Before you start, reset all setting and erase data.2) After this is done create a new iphone in itunes (do not restore from back up)3) Extract CINJECT_0.4.3 to c:\cinject_0.4.34) Open CMD5) Type cd \6) Then type cd cinject_0.4.3 and press enter 7) Execute the command: cinject.exe -i payloads/jailbreak.mobileconfig8) On your iphone you should get a window prompting you to Install Profile on your iPhone. Tap on Install, then on the Install Now button, followed by Next (don't need to enter any password) and then the Done button9) Execute the command: cinject.exe -j payloads (provided you did not do a restore this step should be quick)10) execute the command: cinject.exe -wIf this step takes a long time (more than 30 mins - Then go to next step)11) Toggle the VPN switch in settings on your iphone12) Restore from Back Up13) Enjoy

All appears to have gone well! Jailbroken 4S = winning

No.Restore from backup (in the menu you get when you right-click your phone in the list in the sidebar) keeps it jailbroken.Restore (in the full size property pane) replaces the firmware and un-jailbreaks it.
-
All cinject -w does is monitor the system log.It's not going to finish unless you turn your phone off.
-
What to do is wait.It is backing up your entire phone (just like iTunes), and it has more to do when it finishes. This is the step the actually performs the jailbreak. Don't cancel it.If cinject crashes after making a backup, back the phone up in iTunes, transfer purchases, put it in DFU mode and restore, jailbreak it once it's restored, and then "restore from backup" your data back on.All cinject -w does is watch the system log. You don't need to run it at all, but you should so you can see what's happening.
-
Don't run as administrator (it's completely unnecessary), run as whatever user you normally run iTunes as.

Im stuck on creating backup

Before executing the cinject-w command, delete your wifi profile. Also disable 3G, but leave wifi on (not connected to anything).That's just Cargo Culting: you did X, and it worked, so doing X made it work.The jailbreak has nothing to do with WiFi or 3G, and works fine when both, either, or none are enabled. An out-of-the-box iPhone will have one or the other connected, as it's necessary for activation, and you need to activate before you can get into Settings, and yet hundreds of people have jailbroken OOTB iPhones.A known issue (as in "documented in the README") is if you've set a passcode on the phone, you need to disable it before you start jailbreaking. The only real issues that weren;t discovered until release are that huge backups tend to make injecting the jailbreak fail (solve by properly wiping your phone, i.e. DFU or delete all data using Settings), and that loads of people are terrible at CMD.EXE and RTFM.Finally, cinject.exe -w doesn't modify the device in any way, it just monitors the syslog. It's turning the VPN switch that performs the jailbreak. I believe this will stop the ipad from contacting apple for executable signature verification.Signature verification is done offline, every time the executable is loaded. If it were online, you'd not be able to launch apps without an internet connection. If it were done only once, you'd be able to switcheroo them once they'd been verified online.There are no executables involved anyway: the exploit is a carefully-crafted VPN configuration that smashes the stack on the (already signed by Apple and shipped with the iPhone) VPN client, and makes it configure the corona exploit instead of setting up a VPN. (The corona exploit does the same thing, but at boot time, to make the (signed) VPN client perform a kernel exploit).And if you were meaning install-time verification of the IPSW, if you prevent that, you prevent your iDevice from getting the SHSH it needs to boot.
