My iPhones

I started with a 3Gs at firmware 3.0 then moved to a 4G with the lowest firmware and now at firmware 5.01. I just bought the 4Gs with the 5.01. Waiting for the Jailbreak now for the 4s.

How to Prepare your iPhone or iPad to iOS 5.1.1 Absinthe Untethered jailbreak?

If you planning to inject the iOS 5.1.1 untethered jailbreak using Absinthe 2.0.1 into you iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, so you have to make some preparations to your iDevice. Let me show you what you should do.

How to prepare your iDevice to iOS 5.1.1 Absinthe Untethered jailbreak?
For iPhone 4S, 4, 3GS, iPad 2, iPad 1, iPod touch 4G and 3G users:

Step 1: Download last version of iTunes

Step 2: Download iOS 5.1.1 for your iDevice

Step 3: Plug your iDevice into your computer then right click on your device then click on Backup Button


Step 4: Now you have to restore your iDevice to iOS 5.1.1. Hold (Alt in Mac) (Shift in Windows) and click on the ‘restore’ button then point it to iOS 5.1.1 you download above. Wait for between 10 and 15 minutes for the new OS to be moved over.


Note: If you are receiving “An internal error occurred.” (3200 or 3004) this means Apple’s servers are to busy to deal with your restore request. Try again later.

For The New iPad (iPad 3) users:

For iPad 3 users you can follow the same above tutorial. But I recommend to use OTA (Over The Air) update, just follow the below steps:

Step 1: From home screen, go to Setting > General > Software Update > Download and install


Step 2: In few minutes your iPad 3 will be upgraded to iOS 5.1.1.

Note: Make sure that your iPad is connected to a power source while the download is in progress to save battery.

Important for iPhone unlockers (unofficial carries) who use SAM, Gevey SIM or Ultrasn0w to unlock iPhone:

iPhone 4S users :

iPhone 4S can be unlocked on iOS 5.1.1 using backed up SAM activation tickets or Gevey Ultra S on any baseband.

iPhone 4 users:

iPhone 4 can be unlocked on iOS 5.1.1 using backed up SAM activation tickets on any baseband. For who are using ultrasn0w you have to upgrade your iPhone 4 to custom iOS 5.1.1 using Redsn0w to preserve the unlockable baseband then unlock it using ultrasn0w fixer.

iPhone 3GS users:

You MUST upgrade your devices to custom iOS 5.1.1 then use ultrasn0w fixer to unlock iPhone 3GS on iOS 5.1.1.
