Step-By-Step Guide to Jailbreak iPad 2 Using Redsn0w CLI Tool For Windows
iPhone Dev team has released the Redsn0w command line interface (CLI) tool to jailbreak iPhone 4S and iPad 2 for Windows users.
If you don't want to wait for Chronic Dev team to release Absinthe for Windows, then follow this step-by-step guide, which will take you through the procedure to jailbreak iPad 2 running iOS 5.0.1 or iOS 5 using Dev team's CLI tool.
Here are some important points to note before you proceed.

Worked like a charm! :)
-
My settings app icon is blank on my iPad 2. Worked fine on my 4s though. Any ideas for a fix?
-
I'm just curious how long "cinject.exe -j payloads" should take to complete, as I've been sitting at "Creating Backup" for quite some time now (and Process Monitor is showing no activity for cinject.exe").
-
same problem
-
First, thank you and props to the pod2g, chronic dev team, iphone dev team, saurik, et al.Not sure if this is a symptom of failure, but if you see something like "xxxx.apple.com SSL -1" appear in the window, you have failed. Something tells me this is the security feature that verifies executable signatures. First, remove any WiFi profiles, but leave wifi active. Then, start from scratch. I began from step 1 and worked through the steps promptly. When you see then line "unknown mc_mobile_tunnel[116] : (Note ) MC: mc_mobile_tunnel shutting down." hit the VPN toggle., It will scroll and then reboot. Success!Note, I did reload 5.0.1 for a fresh start on ipad2 wifi.

Same here...
-
Well - mine finally finished the backup after I killed it once and restarted. Unfortunetely, I got the dreaded 1266 error. I'm doing a reset of the iPad now.
-
worked great :), thanks :)
-
This is BURNING through my battery on my 4s at like 1% a min just sitting on the home screen with anything running in the back. I'm gonna have to restore and undo it.
-
So doing a reset still gave me a 1266 error. I re-ran "cinject.exe -j payloads" again and got a different 1266 error message this time. Finally I ran "cinject.exe -j payloads" a third time and it completed successfully. On to "cinject.exe -w" now.
-
Fortunately I was able to completely jb my 64 gig 4s and the wife's 16 gig 4s with no single glitch. Question is can I delete the jailbreak profile in settings or will that wipe off the jb.
-
after full restore still not workingstuck on j payloads
-
It works perfect. Thanks Dream Team! Dont hit and run. Donate!!!!
-
For those having issues, I would suggest u wait for the GUI version. The instructions to the CLI version were very simple in my opinion however I can understand some people having problems following them. Anyway now that I am jb, the 4s is back in the box until the unlock comes out. Plan to donate at least $50 if they manage to unlock the 1.0.13 bb
-
thanks to edjuk8r-212you need to remove wifi profiles to get this to work.guys can you update your guides to cover this off...other than that all good
-
when i typed "cinject.exe -j payloads" on my command prompt, it says "Failed Error", any idea??
-
i cant get past that tep for nothing but im about to reset and try again
-
Sweet - all done... The documentation doesn't really say this, but when "cinject.exe -w" stops continuously scrolling, that is when you toggle the VPN switch. showed me that...
-
Whoops - the link come through above....

tnx a lot :D i can't believe its working :))
-
is not working in iPad2 ??
-
I had a priblem making the backup with my 4s. But I reset and restored to a clean 5.0.1 an tried again now it works with my 4s
-
It working with my ipad2...
-
Oh - BTW - a few things for those about to attempt this1.) I've never done a jailbreak any Apple products before this (long live my Blackberry!), so it wasn't that difficult if you haven't done a jailbreak before2.) Make sure you have a full backup before starting3.) Make sure iTunes is current and shutdown before starting4.) Make sure you are on 5.0.1 before starting (I had been holding off on going to 5.0.1 until I knew at 5.0.1 jailbreak was possible)5.) I ended up having to erase contents on my iPad before I could get this to work - if you did a backup as advised abive, then perhaps you might want to save yourself some grief and completely wipe and reset your iPad before attempting to start6.) Watch the video first before starting - it explains step by step (especially for those of you that don't know what DOS or a command prompt is):http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwl9FPHOw6o7.) Yes - this works on Windows 7 x64 editionsBest of luck!
-
My ipad2 won't reboot aften the VPN error.
-
yeah.... i finally did it.... do a total reset on ur ipad 2 and ur set to go
-
When i run the cinject.exe -i payloads/jailbreak.mobileconfig, it sayssend 1 : result too large. What do i do?
-
Does this even works with iPad2 3G??? cz it didn't work with mine.
-
After the dreaded 1266 error i reset min iPad 2 WiFi and follow ed this guide. Worked like a charm.
-
the ipad 2 never restated automatically after "cinject -w" step. i have tried it 10 times on windows 7 and on xp. but no luck. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!
