    How to Jailbreak iOS 5.1.1 For iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS Users Using Redsn0w [Untethered]

    Posted by iPhoneHacks on Jun 04, 2012 |

    iPhone Dev team has released Redsn0w 0.9.12b1 that includes support for untethered iOS 5.1.1 for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. It includes Rocky Racoon and untethered iOS 5.1.1 jailbreak developed by pod2g and planetbeing that was used in Absinthe 2.0.x jailbreak.

    In this article, we will take you through the step-by-step procedure to jailbreak your iPhone on iOS 5.1.1 using Redsn0w for both Mac and Windows users.

    Here are some important points to note before you proceed.

    This tutorial is meant for iPhone users. iPad users can check out this tutorial, while iPod touch users can check out this tutorial.
    Redsn0w 0.9.12b1 supports untethered jailbreak.
    Redsn0w 0.9.12b1 supports iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS running on iOS 5.1.1.
    Please ensure your iPhone is on iOS 5.1.1 (Settings --> General --> About --> Version should be 5.1.1) before proceeding.
    Please note that jailbreaking your iPhone may void your warranty and hence proceed with caution and at your own risk.
    Please do not forget to backup your iPhone before you proceed.
    Please ensure you are running latest version of iTunes.
    Important: iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS users who have a lot of media on your device, then you can jailbreak your iOS device by putting it in DFU mode (we'll update this guide with additional instructions for it shortly).
    You can follow these step-by-step instructions to jailbreak your iPhone:

    Step 1: Download Redsn0w for Windows from this link
    Code:
     https://sites.google.com/a/iphone-dev.com/files/home/redsn0w_win_0.9.12b1.zip?attredirects=0&d=1
    and Redsn0w for Mac from this link
    Code:
     https://sites.google.com/a/iphone-dev.com/files/home/redsn0w_mac_0.9.12b1.zip?attredirects=0&d=1
    and save the application in a folder named "Redsn0w" on your desktop.

    Step 2: Double click the Redsn0w zip file and extract the application to the Redsn0w folder and then launch the Redsn0w application.

    Windows users should run Redsn0w as ‘Administrator’ (right-click on the Redsn0w exe and select 'Run as an Administrator').

    Step 3: After launching Redsn0w, click on the Jailbreak button.

    Step 4: Redsn0w will start the jailbreak process and go through the following three steps:

    1. Preparing

    2. Processing

    3. Finishing up

    Step 5: Once the three steps are completed, Redsn0w will inform you that the jailbreak was successfully installed. But please wait, leave your device alone. Your iPhone will reboot on its own. After it has rebooted, wait for it respring again.

    After the respring, your iPhone will be successfully jailbroken and you should be able to find the Cydia icon on the Home screen (please note that the Cydia icon may not be on the first page, so don't assume that your iPhone hasn't been successfully jailbroken, use Spotlight to search for it).

    SIMPLES.

    Anyone Unlock a 3GS.
    Im doing it for a friend.
    Did the jailbreak to 5.1.1 as described above and installed ultrasn0w 1.27 but when I put the sim in I get NO SERVICE.
    I then downloaded the baseband 5.13.04 to sort this but that didnt work either.

    Wondering what version users found best for jailbreak / unlock and how they did it.
    Can I re install 4.1 to sort ?

    its easier to jail break using greenp0ison's absinth one click jail break.when using redsn0w you can flash the ipad baseband to unlock but i would not recommend as its not reversible.
    you can down grade to 4.1 if your shsh is backed up in cydia i.e your phone was jail broken while 4.1 was installed but then upgaded to 5.11 ect if not then its not possible to down grade.
