The infamous iPhone Dev Team is proud to announce that Redsn0w 0.9.10b1 has been released to provide an untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.0.1 on all devices that are not based on the A5 processor.
In other words, everything from the iPhone 3GS and above is supported, except for the iPhone 4S and iPad 2.
A few days ago, @pod2g gave the untether to both the iPhone devteam and the chronic devteam. We’ve put it into redsn0w 0.9.10 and PwnageTool, and the chronic devteam put it into a Cydia package.
The hack is “for iOS 5.0.1 on iPhone3GS, iPhone4, iPhone4-CDMA, iPad1, iPod touch 3G, iPod touch 4G,” the Team confirms.
“If you have one of those devices and are not on 5.0.1 yet, update now! The SHSH window is still open for 5.0.1 If you unlock via ultrasn0w or gevey, make sure you only get to 5.0.1 via a custom IPSW!”, reads the post. “Once you’re at 5.0.1, use the latest redsn0w 0.9.10 to both jailbreak and untether.”
For those who have already installed iOS 5.0.1 and applied a tethered jailbreak, there are two choices.
either run redsn0w 0.9.10 over your current jailbreak (deselect “Install Cydia” if you do that)
- or install the Cydia package prepared by the chronic devteam. The patches are the same regardless of which you choose.
