Preserve Baseband and Jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 Using Sn0wbreeze 2.8b11
Do you like this story?
iOS 5.0.1 final public release hit a few hours ago and hackers have updated the jailbreak tools as well. Just posted a guide on how to jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 using redsn0w and here is another guide for Sn0wbreeze fans.
Sn0wbreeze can preserve your current baseband and update your device to iOS 5.0.1. Remember, the latest redsn0w version can do the same but for some reason people still opt for Sn0wbreeze.
This guide is for:
- iPhone 3GS users on 6.15.00 baseband > You can use the guide, preserve the baseband and update your device.
- Gevey SIM users > Preserve baseband and use Gevey.
- Ultrasn0w Users > Well, ultrasn0w is not updated yet to support iOS 5.0.1. But when its out, preserve the baseband and update your device.
How to Jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 using Sn0wbreeze 2.8b11
1. Download iOS 5.0.1 firmware IPSW for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch
2. Now Download iTunes 10.5 for Windows or Mac
4. Run Sn0wbreeze, give it the iOS 5.0.1 .IPSW file
5. From the settings choose wisely the stuff you need. Go to Expert Mode for “preserve your baseband” option; if you are on 6.15.00 or using Gevey SIM or rely on Ultrasn0w to unlock iPhone. Once done, choose Build and continue.
6. Wait for Sn0wbreezed to cook the custom iOS 5.0.1 beta 1 file.
7. Open iTunes 10.5, connect your device and use “Shift + Restore” button and give it the custom iOS 5.0.1 beta 1 file you cooked earlier (should be on your desktop).
8. Wait for iTunes to restore the device to iOS 5.0.1 custom .ipsw file.
9. Once the procedure is done and you see the “DONE” message. Run iBooty (should be on your Desktop) and follow the instructions on your screen. iBooty will push the DFU mode and after a few processes, your device should boot up.
