^ We 1Malaysia using GSM

Hi all, according to my limited knowledge on JB, the Jb process shud not be disturb or else quite some work need to be done to restore the process.. Shud I or can I jb my 4s with sim removed or in airplane mode? Worry that call or msg may come in during JB process.. Or does it matters?

You have a baseband that supposedly can be unlock with Gevey Sim Ultra if you preserve the baseband during the upgrade to 5.0.1

The steps to do it is complicated but you can do it via sn0wbreeze 2.9.1 via Expert Mode.

Does anyone know how to install siri on ipad2 5.0.1 after jailbreak? And may i know is it a piracy issue to install siri into ipad2 n to discuss about it? Sorry if it is

try EVI on apps store

You will regret if you buy Evi

U can install Spire on iPad 2 IOS 5.0.1...
But u need Iphone 4s to make it connect to server...
Hard to do that thing...
Just Pray apple will release for older device...

Hey guys got a simple question here. I've googled but I need some confirmation.

I have a jailbroken iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1. If something wrong happens to my phone and I want to reset and restore it, can I restore it to the factory settings using iTunes, and then restore from a previous backup later? I want to keep all my settings and cydia apps with all the apps settings and data intact.

Guys.. im a super noob, just got my Iphone 4s previously never own an iphone before. So im kinda confused here, it says better to do backup before you do the jailbreak.
So the steps is like this:
1)Backup your phone using Itunes
2)Restore your phone to factory settings
3)Do the jailbreak
4)Once jailbreak is completed, restore from your last backup.

So my question is, everytime my phone connected to my computer, the system will auto backup/sync my phone into my computer. Let say if i already done my backup, then restore my phone to factory settings, i am afraid that the Itune will auto sync/backup the factory settings and overwrites my previous backup since as far as im concerned only 1 backup is available to choose(last backup). So im afraid when im gonna restore my iphone after done with the jailbreaking, it gonna picks the last backup which contains the factory settings instead.

Not sure you guys can understand my concern or not.

No, iTunes wont auto-sync

Unless you click Set up as New phone . Then u might have problems restoring your older backup

But then u can always download iBackupBot on the PC and restore ur backup there

i've done JB for my iphone 4s, my fren, and also my housemate.
3 times JB, none of it got issue.
for me, backup is just for your secure step, JUST IN CASE IF your JB is not success, u still have other option to restore.
take the simple one:
1. backup your iphone using itune
2. JB
3. if everything is ok, continue use your iphone.

its not that complicated isnt it?

Oh.. unlock for 4S where fort art thou?

so guys , can i jailbreak iphone 4 5.0.1 with the guide in the first page?

the redsn0w thingy~

i heard we have to use the tethered way then install corona to untethered it..

iP4 5.01 can be untethered straight away

with the guide in the first page?

redsn0w?

im downloading the ios 5.0.1 GSM for ip4 now

hopefully its the right one , cause i dont hv the ip4 with me now.

Guys, is it true after you jb, your phone will be prone to viruses or something like that.
meaning it's not safe to surf on safari for internet banking stuff.
from what I heard, if you didn't jb, it is safe, but after jb-ing, it will be very vulnerable.
hope to hear some feedback on this.
thanks

You can always tell iTunes not to auto sync/backup. Just go to iTunes preferences and under the Devices Tab, untick the box that says "automatically sync iPhone iPad iPod" etc.

By the way, if you backup and then restore your iPhone, a copy of the backup prior to the restore will be saved in the computer and will not be overwritten. iTunes will create another backup file post restore.

I think what joonwei23 mean/concern is related to SSH. If you don't install SSH or install SSH and change the default password then you are safe. Problem only arises if you install SSH but did not care to change the root/mobile password. People can get into the phone using that 'hole'.
