Spirit Jailbreak, untethered.

[w00dsy]

it works. For those with newer handsets there's now a proper jailbreak that allows you to turn your phone on and off without having to do a tethered boot again. http://www.spiritjb.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

back up your phone first

good find w00dsy thanks for posting.

i should add this too, Installous is like an unofficial app store, there's even some......... erm.....trial versions on there like TomTom.


go into Cydia, navigate over to Manage, then click on Sources, and click Edit in the top right hand corner, then Add on the top left corner, once you’ve clicked add, type in “Cydia.hackulo.us” into the http repository screen. Then tap on Add Source and it’ll give you a message about piracy. Click OK on the message and download Installous through this new repo!

Do this with caution. I don't know if it is an issue with OS X or not, but my phone is fucked, and has been for the past hour or so.

How is it fucked norbs ? Can't u just restore it if it goes wrong?

Well the iPhone just kept coming up with the Apple logo and doing nothing else.

Seems ok now.

im doing this now with my 3G phone, see how it goes!

[w00dsy]

i have done 1 iPhone plus 3 iPod Touchs and they all worked fine.

I dunno if i want it on my main phone, so just trialing atm! i updated everything, and then i still couldnt install anything like themes or what not. so dunno

[DexterPunk]

I ran this, it installed Cydia (sp?) and clicked on that, said... "reorganizing" now all my apple based apps are gone... the phone icon, the calender, notes, safari etc.. all thats left is the apps ive paid for.... am I doing it wrong?

[DexterPunk]

had to restore back... was silly enough to think I wouldnt have any issues. Which means I lost my iphone pics from tassie I hadn't backed up since before I left.

[w00dsy]

didn't you also have trouble with the original jailbreak as well?

[DexterPunk]

yeah thats correct... mine was an early 3Gs, and shouldnt need special stuff to do it.. I wonder if my bootrom isnt right for this jailbreak.

I wonder if my bootrom isnt right for this jailbreak.

Thats normally the issue mate, finding the right jailbreak for your bootrom. I would have thought by now though there would be a JB that works.
