The iPhone 4S jailbreak for iOS 5.1.1 will be released this week, bringing all the fun of the iPhone 4S jailbreak to the masses.
Jailbreaking iPhone 4S is a simple process, but if you want to avoid a delay, you should prepare to jailbreak iPhone 4S.
Jailbreak for iPhone 4S in iOS 5.1.1 will use Absinthe 2.0 tool which will jailbreak iPhone 4S and other Apple devices and install Cydia which will give access to best jailbreak apps and tweaks.
How to Prepare for iPhone 4S Jailbreak iOS 5.1.1 Without Tethered?
Assuming you are not currently using a jailbroken iPhone 4S, here is what you can do to prepare for the iOS 5.1.1 jailbreak release.
Before jailbreaking the iPhone 4S, you should have a backup in case anything goes wrong. If you normally back up to iCloud, I’d also recommend making a local backup just in case. If you plug your iPhone 4S into the computer you synced to, it should back up automatically.
In addition to backup, you must upgrade to iOS 5.1.1. MuscleNerd and pod2g approve this update because Absinthe 2.0 will jailbreak the iPhone 4S on iOS 5.1.1.
– If you want to be one of the first to jailbreak the iPhone 4S in iOS 5.1.1, you should look for a Mac or a friend with a Mac. The jailbreak tool usually arrives on the Mac a day or two before it’s available on Windows and about a week before it’s available on Linux.
Running iPhone 4S Jailbreak on iOS 5.0.1?
Users who have already jailbroken an iPhone 4S on iOS 5.0.1 should back up the iPhone, but wait for more news for the upgrade. As of now the only way to upgrade to iOS 5.1.1 is to unjailbreak the iPhone 4S, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see a better upgrade path for users waiting for the new jailbreak before upgrading to iOS 5.1. one.
