Anyone have issues, please feel free to PM me. I will be able to assist with your windows Jailbreak. Even if you're getting error lines or need help with the command input, i can walk you through it.

After turning on VPN and getting the "A configuration error occurred" do we need to touch "OK?"

It's been sitting in this state for about 30 minutes now.

Thanks for the help!

To "The Tos," I couldn't find where I can PM you.
 
Spoke too quicky - opened cydia and left it running while it was setting up for the first time and sorting out dependencies or something - returned to see stock apps disappear.

Rebooted and things were the same, shall restore and try again.
 
i did a backup...but then i plugged in my phone again and it did an auto back up now i don't see my previous back up

Yes you need to hit ok. if everything worked properly, your phone will reset and when it turns back on, you will have cydia.
 
Stuck on step 5:(
'cinject.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
 
Well that was easy using the instructions on here. CLI worked!! Who needs to wait for a GUI version for Windows!!

Thank you guys and your clear instructions..

Now I am FREEEE :D
 
Do not type this portion of it in bold execute the command: cinject.exe -w

Just type cinject.exe -w

I assume that is where people are getting stuck.

He quoted the whole thing where it says type execute command making it look like he wanted you to type that portion of it but that is not the case.
 
Done - restored my phone to clean and rejailbroke, then restored from the backup I did before I factory restored it.

Now my iPhone 4S is jailbroke and happy!
 
after it didn't work i started over buy erasing settings and content...do i restore my phone before the JB or after
 
you need to type "CD" (without the quotes) first. then the exact location of where the folders are.

I've already changed directories into that folder.
C:\Users\me\Downloads\cinject_0.4.3> is the command line where I'm typing the command from step 5.
 
Anyone? Don't want to move on with setting the phone till I know which option to choose.
yes as long as you previously backed up your phone

----------

if jailbreak my phone and then restore by clearing setting and content will it remove the jailbreak and everything like the phone just came out of the box?

So we should restore and then when it asks to set up new phone and such...we just leave it there and jailbreak?
 
I got it working. What I did was Restore>Setup as New Phone>then follow the directions posted on page 4. Also someone already mentioned this but I will say it again. Step 9 says 9) Now after a few minutes from step 8, now type this command: "execute the command: cinject.exe -w" but really you just need to type "cinject.exe -w" not execute the command.
