FuckyeaH iPad 2 jailbreaK
Had this 1 under my Spotify playlists for a few weeks now. Never streamed it much. Until today. Must say it’s a great album. Trying to write a review is always hard I think ‘cause music is such a personal thing. So listen to their album on Spotify and make up you’re own mind.
A few days ago I ordered a 4s. I will expect it will arrive in 1 maybe 2 weeks. Now I’m in a predicament. A brand new 4s and no jailbreak. How can I go public with it. An iPhone without an jailbreak really isn’t an iPhone I think. Maybe I will let my girl use it until the jailbreak comes out. A tethered will be fine.
So you can imagine my hearth just skipped a beat when MuscleNerd posted a tweat of a 4s running Cydia. It’s not quite ready for public release. But hey I have got 2 weeks left.
Till now a tethered jailbreak would mean whenever you had to reboot you’re iDevice you needed a computer with Redsn0w to reboot. Of course this is not a problem when there is a computer nearby. But on the road it would mean if you’re device needs a reboot for what kind of reason, you will be stuck on the Apple logo.
Now there is a solution for this problem. With Semitether you can reboot you’re iDevice and use the most stuff on it except Safari, Mail, Cydia and you’re jailbreak stuff.
According to BigBoss you can use the following stuff:
1) Can use phone, sms (text messages)
2) Can use every other stock app on iphone.
3) Cannot use mobile safari
4) Can use other appstore web browsers such as atomic web browser
5) Cannot use mail app. You could install a gmail app from appstore or such instead.
6) You cannot use any jailbreak tweak, app, cydia until you boot tethered.
7) While in the semitether booted state, you should not add a jailbreak ios5 notification such as sbsettings to notifications during this state or your device will be stuck in a respring loop until you get home to “boot tethered”.
I just installed it and it works perfectly. Whatsapp, iMessage, sms, phone are working and all the other normal iPhone apps form the App store.
So here’s a guide:
1 You need a jailbroken iOS5 device
2 Go to cydia/manage/sources/edit and add the following repo”:
http://thebigboss.org/semitether
3 Search for SemiTether, install it then reboot your device.
4 When you reboot you’re device you can now use the device in a semitether state.
5 Reboot tethered with Redsn0w to have a fully functional jailbroken device.
When you reboot with Redsn0w it will respring after the pineapple, this is completely normal. In my case it resprong and went to the Apple, so I had to boot tethered again, it resprong and everything was fine.
I tried it on my iOS 5 iPhone 4 GSM. Remember this is a beta tweak so you may face some problems.
Happy jailbreaking.
Update:
Version 07.9 is released:
This version will take about 90 seconds after it first boots up and then your device will respring again. This timing was the only way to get some of the launch daemons to properly relaunch.
This version should fix issues for some of you folks where:
1) Device does not sync with itunes and only errors. Hopefully solved.
2) Device reboots after 2-3 minutes.
3) App sync issue – this is unworkable
The following tweaks are running at the moment on my jaibroken iOS 5 iPhone 4. So I think it´s safe to install them. Sometimes some packages conflict. So be careful.
Beware that some tweaks require a reboot.
Sweet contest! Loving all the tees submitted! good luck guys!

Hope by now you solved the problem. If not try to set it in DFU mode en rejailbreak it with redsn0w. Use the latest version of redsnow. If this doens’t work. Try to kick it out recovery mode using tinyumbrella. If that doens’t work you can try to restore it to iOS5 with itunes.

Join and ask for help. It’s a very good forum. Most of the time ppl respond quickly. I aways go there when there is stuff I can’t solve.
If you love your iDevices and especially tinkering with them you can call this an exhilarating time. I alway like the lauch of new iDevices and big iOS updates ‘s cause there is a lot of chatter in the air of things to come. It’ always makes me smile.
So here’s a big cheer for all you Nerds outthere.
Developer Steven Troughton-Smith has been working with 9to5Mac exclusively to port the iPhone 4S Siri voice command system to the iPhone 4. Troughton-Smith was able to get the beginning steps of a full port rolling after installing the iPhone 4S Siri and Springboard files onto an iPhone 4. As you can see in the video, Siri’s interface loads up with all the features from the iPhone 4S implementation.
Perhaps the biggest news here is that we’ve determined that there is no technical reason for Apple not to allow Siri to run on the iPhone 4. The iPhone 4 hardware can support the Siri artificial intelligence system, as the A4 processor is said to be powerful enough. We are not entirely sure why Apple is making Siri an iPhone 4S exclusive but it could be due to special microphone support, or because the A5 may allow it to run slightly quicker. After all, Apple is the company who blocked custom wallpapers on the iPhone 3G because the animation is slightly slugger than the animation on newer iOS devices.
Yesterday evening I installed iOS5 on my iPhone and jailbroke it using Redsn0w. It’s an tethered jailbreak. So everytime you turn of you iDevice or reboot it. You have to put it in DFU mode and run Just boot from Redsn0w. Never had a tethered one before. Till now it hasn’t been any trouble. But still hope for a untethered one quickly.
Visit Redsn0w for the stuff you need to jailbreak.
Step 1. Backup all you stuff.
Step 2. Download the right firmware. Link
Step 3. Download and install the newest iTunes. Link
Step 4. Download the newest version of Redsn0w. Link
Step 5. Update or restore your iDevice to iOS 5.
I did a restore, it should be more stabel than a update. Stability is important when having a tethered jailbreak.
Step 6. Open Redsn0w and follow the instructions in this vid
How to put your iPhone in DFU mode:
Press and hold the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time.
Step Three
After exactly 10 seconds release the Sleep/Wake button. Continue holding the home button until Redsn0w kicks in.
Good luck :o)
