Help with jailbreaking and Cydia for iPhones, iPads, and iPod touches.


How to jailbreak iOS 6.0-6.1.2 untethered on all iOS devices (and 6.1.3 tethered on older iOS devices).
Apple has released iOS 6.1.3 and 6.1.4; do not upgrade/restore (if you want to keep your jailbreak). You cannot downgrade/upgrade/restore to 6.1.2 using SHSH blobs on newer devices; older devices that can use SHSH blobs are iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, and iPod touch 4th gen. Learn more.

Redsn0w or restore and rejailbreak. Make sure you have your 4.2.1 blobs backed up if you choose to restore.

Restore is the last resource when installing Cydia via iFile and OpenSSH failed. Restore will cause many problem sometime. Before restore make sure that you have SHSH Blobs saved in TU or Cydia.
