A5 iphone 4s and iPad 2 Jailbreak Complete!

It's very easy if you use the correct commands.
The commands are easy enough, it's just when this happens


if you get an error “fatal(__LINE__): assertion failed (1266): got == sizeof(size)” You’ll have to reset your ipad ==> go to settings –> General –> Reset –> Erase All Content and Settings. Once done…please try the jailbreak process again.

I really don't want to do a reset all thanks.

PREPERATION STEPS - Highly recommended you do these first.

Launch iTunes with iPhone/iPad plugged in and make sure it completes a backup of your device.
When the backup is 100% complete, quit iTunes, unplug your device, replug your device then follow the instructions below.

Doing that first will make for a much quicker process.


Completely new guide for noobs. I just found a way to do it on my iPad 2 [Wifi only] on iOS 5.0.1..
1) Download the file above in step 3, then extract the folder to your Downloads. (Start Menu, your name, then on the left, downloads.)
2) There should now be a folder called: "cinject_0.4.3"
3) Open up CMD and type this (Without "" quotes..): "cd downloads"
4) Then, do: "cd cinject_0.4.3"
5) After so, type this command into cmd.. "cinject.exe -i payloads/jailbreak.mobileconfig"
6) On your device, click on install, and when prompted to type in a password, just click next, with no password in.
7) After so, type this command: "cinject.exe -j payloads"
8) Just wait a little bit. ( Don't freak out, or jizz )
9) Now after a few minutes from step 8, now type this command: "cinject.exe -w"
10) On your device, after doing step 9, toggle the "VPN" switch on in the settings, in about a few seconds after, it should say error.
11) Wait, then it should restart. Cydia is now installed, and your device is now free!

Worked on my iPad 2 5.0.1 fine.
Trying on my 5.0.1 iPhone 4S.
 
The first time i tried it failed. I then restored my iphone as a new phone without installing from a backup and it worked a treat for me.

Very easy to do and worth the effort.
 
Is the greenpois0n website a bit hit and miss today?

Not been able to get on at all :( although I have been out and about on my 3G iPad which I can not wait to jailbreak when I can get it to work! :D

Don't need it really, mac download links for the GUI JB are on the previous page, I posted the Windows CLI way as well. I haven't been able to get onto greenpois0n though at all.
 
Hmm got through most of it fine using the windows CLI, all commands used but now im waiting for a reboot and its taking a lot more than the 'few seconds' it says :(
if i decide to try it again will have have to restore through itunes and go again?
 
Guys, restore the device to factory settings then jailbreak, it works fine. It does not work if you restore then backup and then jailbreak.

Restore to factory, then add the jailbreak.

Works fine
 
Downloading 5.0.1 for iPad now to restore it and try again.

I remember before when i previously tried to jailbreak my iPhone 4, i could not because it was a different 'boot rom' if that makes sense? Is this still the case that i won't be able to or should i just give it a shot and see how it goes?
 
BOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

Factory reset (erase all data and settings), then the command line worked a treat.
Time to browse the jailbreaking thread... :)
 
Have done my ipad2 wifi but had to restore back to factory settings and then reinstall all my apps. Works a treat now though.
