Absinthe A5 jailbreak released for iPhone 4S and iPad 2

The 'Dream Team' of hackers consisting of Pod2G, P0sixNinja, MuscleNerd, Planetbeing and even Saurik have just released their untethered jailbreak (Chronic-Dev Absinthe) for the iPhone 4S and the iPad 2. Now, you can simply download Absinthe and Jailbreak your iPhone 4S Untethered running the iOS 5.0 (9A334), iOS 5.0.1 (9A405 and 9A406) firmware or iPad 2 (WiFi/GSM/CDMA)  running the iOS 5.0.1 ((9A405) firmware. The initial release is currently for Mac OS X only but Windows is coming soon! Hit the download link after the break to download Absinthe and command line utility Cinjet for Windows.

#Update - If the Absinthe webclip shows “Error establishing a database connection”, please go to Settings, turn on VPN and wait instead.

• Toggle VPN only AFTER Absinthe says it’s done, or it will not work. 
• VPN SHOULD error and then reboot soon. If it does not, rerun Absinthe

#Update - The iPhone Dev-Team has released an updated command line utility that can perform a jailbreak of the iPhone 4S and iPad 2 using Windows.

• Version 0.4.3 adds support for Windows users. It also makes the "-j" jailbreak option much more functional :) See the README.txt for usage.

iH8Sn0w updated Sn0wBreeze 2.92

iH8Sn0w released Sn0wBreeze 2.92 for non-A5 devices to perform a tethered jailbreak of iOS 5.1.

What is New?

• Added Tethered Jailbreak support for 3GS/iPod Touch 3/A4 Users on iOS 5.1 (9B176)
• iPhone 3GS old-bootrom users are untethered on 5.1/9B176 (as usual).
• Bug Fixes (Specifically with the iPad baseband and iPhone 2G).
• Re-added the iPhone Dev-Team's iPhone 2G permanent unlock 'BootNeuter'.

Why is there no A5 support?

A low level (DFU/iBoot/LLB) exploit is required to start the restoration of custom IPSWs. The past two jailbreaks (JailbreakMe & absinthe) for the A5 worked within iOS itself. These exploits are not capable of bringing the iDevice into a state where it will accept custom IPSWs. Therefore, an A5 device cannot currently downgrade to an iOS revision that Apple is no longer signing (even with SHSH blobs) and it cannot preserve the baseband when updating to a newer iOS revision.

Download Sn0wBreeze v2.92 (For iOS 3.1.3, 3.2.x, 4.0.x, 4.1, 4.2.1 to 4.2.8, 4.3 to 4.3.3, 5.0.1, 5.1)
