As you might already know Apple released its latest firmware iOS 5.1 just few days back and the biggest question that has been in the jailbreak community is whether they will be able to get their hands on the untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.1. The tethered jailbreak for iOS 5.1 has already been released but that is something very common for any firmware.
We just posted that the Linux version for Absinthe is out and previously we had posted guide on how to untether jailbreak iOS device on Mac and on Windows but now Linux users don’t need to stay in shadows long. This is a bit difficult as compared to that on Mac and Windows as you won’t have iTunes for Linux. Follow the guide after the break to successfully jailbreak your iOS device:
You might already know of the jailbreaking tool that was launched by pod2g and his team that allows users to untether jailbreak their iOS devices that support the A5 processor e.g. iPhone 4S and iPad 2 and now just over the weekend over a million devices have been jailbroken.
Absinthe is the tool that allows users to jailbreak their iPhone 4S and iPad 2 that are running on iOS 5.0.1 or iOS 5 but that is just not it, you will never need to jailbreak your device again as this is an untethered jailbreak tool. Currently, Absinthe has been available for Mac and Windows users only but a while ago the Chronic Dev Team has also released it for Linux.
Absinthe is the tool that you would be looking for recently. It is the tool that allows users to jailbreak their A5 devices however Absinthe didn’t prove to be perfect at all. There have been loads of bugs that came with its release and now Absinthe for Mac has received yet another update, this time fixing the VPN and White Icon Errors.
As promised we are now revealing you the guide to untether jailbreak your iPhone 4S or iPad 2 running on iOS 5 or iOS 5.0.1 using Windows. Previously the jailbreak was compatible only for Mac users but then pod2g’s team released the jailbreak for Windows but it had to be done using a CLI tool. However, now Absinthe for Windows is out and all you have to do is to follow the simple guide shown after the break:
As we had previously told you that pod2g’s team released the CLI tool that is a more sophisticated way of jailbreaking your iPhone 4S or iPad 2 untethered running on iOS 5 or iOS 5.0.1 and now we are posting a simple guide that will allow you to carry out the task on Windows. It is different and is not as easy as hitting the jailbreak button.
