iF4TB Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 The newly released and highly anticipated Absinthe A5 jailbreak is the first public jailbreak for iPhone 4S users and the first jailbreak for iPad 2 with iOS 5. If you’ve been waiting for an untethered jailbreak for either device with iOS 5, this is it, and it’s very easy to use. Absinthe is compatible with iPhone 4S or iPad 2 running the following iOS builds: iPhone 4S iOS 5.0 – build 9A334, iOS 5.0.1 builds 9A405 or 9A406 iPad 2: iOS 5.0.1 – build 9A405 Backup your iOS device before proceeding, you can do this manually with iTunes. Jailbreak iPhone 4S or iPad 2 on iOS 5 using Absinthe Connect the iPhone 4S or iPad 2 to the computer Launch Absinthe and click on “Jailbreak” and let the device sit and run the jailbreak, this may take a while sit back..!!! When the jailbreak is finished, you’ll see an Absinthe icon on the home screen, tap on that to load the Greenpois0n site and download Cydia The device is now jailbroken. This is a fully untethered jailbreak, meaning you can reboot at will without the need for boot assistance from an application or computer. Troubleshooting: If you see an “Error establishing a database connection” error during the process, just wait it out and try again, or start a VPN tunnel through Settings > Network > VPN > ON (via @pod2g). The Absinthe Greenpois0n servers are swamped by the initial demand but things should even out shortly. http://cache.greenpois0n.com/dl/absinthe-mac-0.4.zip http://cache.greenpois0n.com/dl/absinthe-win-0.4.zip Follow me on twitter :- www.twitter.com/F4TB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
