This is why I love jailbreaking

I don't have iOS 5 yet. Those who has it with jb can try and give reviews here got a three day trial in cydia



This is FREAKING AWESOME! Siri successfully ported to Iphone 4 and Ipod 4th gen with it running smoothly and connected to Apple server. Detailed information on how the port was performed will be released after the iPhone 4S jailbreak is released

Does anyone face the problem of the semi tethered icon is blank silver? I managed to get original icon which is the "connect to itunes" but now blank only. Even after reboot with redsnow or reboot normally.

iOS 5.01 has been release. Is it still possible to update to iOS 5 from 4.3.3?

You can jailbreak iOS 5 using redsnow BUT it is a tethered jb. After that you can change it to a semi-tethered jb. For now on iOS 5.01 cannot be jb-ed.

It depends on personal preference. I am using IP4 with iOS 5 jb with redsnow. So far so good, can say I don't find any problems and iOS 5 is awesome. Just only the semi-tethered jb, but I see that iOS 5 improvements outweighs the troublesome boot up.

Actually it is not that difficult as you think. Tethered and untethered jb is the same way to do it. Here is a tutorial, all you need is 10 minutes at max to read http://www.iclarified.com/jailbreak/

Oh ok phew just a day early I upgrade to iOS 5 if not cannot jb . What about I download iOS 5 from a website then use "shift click restore", will it work even after apple has stop signing it?

Yeah go try again I managed to do it flawlessly. Tethered JB with redsnow then semi-tethered via cydia (bigboss)

Cydia is just a blank silver icon am I right? If yes try to respring/reboot tethered should be fine. I faced that too.

I face the same problem too and I got the solution for you. Download Sbsettings from Cydia. Then use that to respring. Respring twice or trice then the icons will appear beautifully. Then it will be normal until the next respring

The blur mode makes it slow at loading.

Jailbreakme was bought back. So it is save to use

Where did you source that news?

In iClarified it says that jailbreaker found a vulnerability and cautions updating to 5.01. Untethered jailbreak is not expected to be released soon.

People with iPhones are always waiting. We wait for iPhone launch, wait for ios release, wait for jailbreak release. Never once stopped waiting since I got the iPhone 4.

After the untethered jailbreak then the wait is on Siri to be released to iPhone 4. By the way there is a new cydia app to allow Siri dictation. After that wait for iPhone 5 then it goes in a loop.

You need to check once in awhile whether the semi tethered is applied successfully. You can do this by opening the semi tethered app to check. If the semi tethered fails just fix it in the app option.

For me semi tethered works as it should. So rebooting will only lose jb apps and safari.

Yes you may corrupt your iphone software causing it to brick. You may not be able to restore to original software as it is corrupted damaging your iphone permanently

Siri0us has been removed by the developer from cydia to prevent lawsuits against him.
