iH8sn0w A5 iOS Loophole
Apparently iH8sn0w found a loop hole to downgrade A5 devices. Hope they make this public soon.

The only 5.1 jailbreak is teathered jailbreak for A4 devices. There is no untehered one yet. And there are no 5.1 jailbreaks for A5 devices. Jailbreaks are free or donation you don't pay for them that is the best way to find a scam.

Did any of the jailbreak hackers give an ETA for the 5.1 untethered jailbreak for A5 devices? All the info I see just talks about the iPad 3. Does that mean the hack they discovered is only for iPad 3 or will it work all A5 devices? Is there any other way to fix the battery issue in 5 & 5.0.1 other than upgrading to 5.1? Whats the exact reason you can downgrade with A4 and not A5? From my understanding you can save A5 SHSH blobs and Apticket so why can't downgrade work like it does for A4 devices?
They dont usually give ETA's.
It will be out when its done.
And dont think that with 5.1 magically the battery issues will go away.
You cant downgrade an A5 yet using shsh blobs cause there is no bootrom exploit available and Apple stepped up their security with blobs for new devices.
Even though you can save shsh blobs for A5 devices you cannot use them yet.
Ok I just saw this video just now. Can anybody verify if this is fake?

He shows that the phone is a iPhone 4S on 5.1 with Jailbreak. The actual phone shows this in Cydia. Not sure what to think.

It's fake. If you look closely to where he shows in settings that he's using 5.1, you'll notice in parenthesis it says (9A406) which was the updated release of 5.0.1. I don't know why or how Cydia shows 5.1. but to show 5.1 in settings I think you only need to edit a plist file.
So im pretty sure it's fake and he's a con artist. Stay away. If I'm completely wrong then someone please correct me.
I finally created a login for the forums as I've been a daily reader forever now. I started seeing more and more posts where I knew the answer to people's questions but was too lazy to sign up. Anyways, hello everyone!

Yes, all you need to do to spoof your iOS version is edit the ProductVersion key in /System/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist.
Welcome!
Supposed working untethered jailbreak for iPhone 4S on 5.1. All the comments look good, but it could be fake. Is there anyone stuck on iPhone 4S 5.1 that can test it out to see if it really works? Your help would be much appreciate as I myself am not willing to risk loosing my jailbreak.

When I see that web address, I hear voices in the air (or maybe it is my instincts) shouting scam
Why would the CDEV team release this on a different address from their own. To download it, you have to fill out forms to participate in a competition. Suspicious. If it looks like a scam, it probably *is* a scam.

You are precisely correct.
However, with desperate people all reality goes out the window !
I upgraded in hopes to improve my battery life as well. I knew it would most likely be a long time before they got a jailbreak for the A5 5.1 devices... I miss my jailbreak too.
I hear you, battery life for me on 5.1 was horrible even after I did a fresh restore as new! I was down to 55% with 1 1/2 hour of usage and 3 hours of standby. This is with bluetooth off, most of my location services off, diagnostics off, screen brightness at around 75%, fetch email (1 account only) and a few other battery saving tips.
Here's the good news though, I went to Apple last week to replace my 4S and got a 4S that was on 5.0!! Now I'm back to being JB and having great battery life! I recently had 5 1/2 hours of usage and 1 Day 2 hours of standby time with about 15% left for my battery. Keep in mind that I like to keep my screen brightness at 100% too so this was a night & day difference for me. I'm as happy as can be now lol
I accidentally upgraded thinking my sex life might be better if I was on iOS 5.1 and figuring that it wouldn't take this long for the dev team to hack 5.1 I saw a video on youtube that said I would have more sex on iOS 5.1
I am still waiting and I miss my jailbreaked iPhone. And I have not had any extra sex either.

Same here.
I thought I was going to last longer too but didn't work out
People who are that careless need to ruin their computers quickly, and go do something else with their time.
Are you using gmail or hotmail with exchange syncing? I damaged my iPhone 4 beyond repair and had to get a 4s and when I restored, I was shocked at the battery life. You could just about watch the battery percentage go down like a countdown. I found several places saying to delete and re set up the exchange email accounts and that worked like a champ.
Now I'm waiting patiently on a 5.1 4s jailbreak as bite SMS and little things like picking my phone up to see the temperature have me spoiled.
I only had my Gmail account setup to fetch every hour but I'm not sure if that was the issue. Either way I'm getting decent battery life now on my new 4S running 5.0, the only difference I've made is that I will manually fetch my emails instead.
