Easiest jailbreak in a while, remember to donate if you can.

Does anyone know if a sound profile app exists...basically like the sound profile capabilities of the blackberry. This really would be the only reason I would JB my iPhone.

THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO KEEP MY iPHONE!

Although not many reasons for me to jailbreak, I know many who will be happy.

What jailbreak tweaks is everyone excited to try on their devices?

I'll be removing the headphone volume limiter via ssh. It's the only thing I need a jailbreak for, these days.

Yay! Been waiting for months

It can't get any easy than that!!
Themes here I come again!!
Donation on its way!!

agreed, no restore required

I dont think this is correct!

I updated OTA and not from itunes and have jailbroken my device new problem (ipad 3 GSM) and iPhone 4s

I just performed a jailbreak on my iPhone 4S with iOS 6.1 and it worked flawlessly - when I updated to 6.1, I did so OTA (over the air).

Worked perfectly!

Now just have the guts to use it on the iPhone 5 which I actually use as a phone.

does this work on aTV2?

Nice work evasi0n

free apps

...yet no one will ever admit to that on these forums. They will all claim sb settings or theming

Nothing to admit for me. I've paid for every app from cydia. But you go ahead and make your generalizations. Like there's anything wrong with free apps.
I love being able to share my iPhone's Internet connection without paying AT&T an extra $20/month (tether me). I love being able to send texts from my lock screen (lock info + bite sms). I love being able to attach anything to an email within that email (anyattach).

Did anybody start off fresh with a new restore for this jailbreak?

I'm considering it.

I just bought a Nexus 4 unlocked to play with because I was getting so bored with my iPhone 5 (which I can still use whenever I want by putting the sim back in)... I'll jailbreak tonight and see if it's worth keeping or selling.

Mine has been sitting at the final "Patching Kernel..." screen for a long time. Anyone else have this happen?

ATT iPhone 5

Mine too

 

[JPChicago]

how long will the whole process take? i only have about an hour of free time

 

[alexander25]

do you still need to install a fresh copy of iOS 6.1, or does this work if you updated from 6.0.2?

i remember there were people saying that this was necessary

 

[biglipps66]

Doing my iPad first.. this is amazing for sure.. I love it

 

[boredazngirl13]

I can't seem to find the links =[ Help please!

Five minutes.

I can't seem to find the links =[ Help please!

just click what operating system u use. i have windows, so click the windows tab.

 

[rshroff2]

Wow, the jailbreak was super easy. I cant seem to purchase anything through cydia though and when I click on manage accounts, it doesn't do anything.

 

[nick_elt]

Apple might even sell a few more iphones now. Wonder if Tim Cook donated?

 

[thelink]

Steve would never have allowed this....

 

[JPChicago]

Five minutes.

thanks! starting now!

 

[nick_elt]

So... does it actually work? Too scared to be the guinea pig!

Theres been millions of guinea pigs before you, its safe to do, any issues you can always restore.
