why cannot use OTA?
*
Because evad3rs team did not have the time to test it on an OTA firmware, they also said that the SHSH blobs created by an OTA firmware is different than a full restore and that could be a problem.

Here's the link to the info

So u guys say that 6.0.1 jailbreak is release this sunday? Oh god good news..!!
Can my iphone 4s jailbreak it too?
*
No, the jailbreak is probably for 6.1 so restore (yes, that's not a typo), restore your iPhone 4s to 6.1 and wait for the jailbreak to be released.

1. Download the Firmware http://iclarified.com/750/where-to-downloa...ware-files-from
2. Press Shift + Restore and select the file you downloaded

P/S: Backup the phone first before doing this.

guys now am using ios 5.1.1 do i wait for the sunday Jailbreak then only update to ios 6.1 or update now?

If you do not wish to take any risk, wait for the jailbreak to be released. If you think that Apple will be able to patch the hole really fast, then update to 6.1 now.

Your choice.

what u mean by patching the hole? in what sense?

once the jailbreak is out, Apple will be able to know which vulnerable area was exploited by the jailbreak and they can then patch it.

Musclenerd has twitted that iPhone on 6.1 via OTA updates may not be jailbreak able. So that's why.

check the link I posted in the previous page.

Can we update the firmware with iTunes rather than doing a full restore?
If restore need to resync all the apps again rclxub.gif

This one I am not sure. Based on my experience in jailbreaking, it is always better to start from a fresh restore.

Coz from iClarified, the title did say
"Jailbreakers Should Update to iOS 6.1 Using iTunes, Not Using Software Update"

Yes, but the actual tweet from pimskeks says

If you people plan to upgrade to iOS 6.1 please don't do an OTA upgrade. Please make a full restore using iTunes.

somehow I tried you using itunes to update it to 6.1, eventhough I used OTA earlier.

the apple logo and the white loading bar comes out, quite awhile to let it finish.

but when is restarts, it doesn't go to the usual setup screen where you need to configure the iphone, setup wifi connection and what not.

so basiclly, my friend is updated via OTA or itunes now? how to check?  rclxub.gif

btw, im using iphone4s

If you use the "Update" option in iTunes, obviously it will not update an already updated firmware.

You need to download the 6.1 firmware (I posted the link in my post in the previous page I think) and then do a Full Restore (which will wipe the iPhone clean). For the guide to do a full restore follow my previous posts.

Hmmm .... that is weird, shouldn't there be a Shift + Restore button in iTunes? Sorry, I have not used this in a while so maybe iTunes 11 has changed the menu ....

Wise advice you have there. Since iPhone backup is such an excellent system (much better than current Windows Phone 8 backup process), I also follow the same rule, I do a full restore (wipe clean) my iPhone, jailbreak and then restore my backup and synced my apps. This process has not failed me once and as the saying goes, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Do i need to use redsnow? Where i do i get the firmware?

Aiyohhh ... to update using iTunes no need to use redsn0w.

Download the firmware from this link ...

http://iclarified.com/750/where-to-downloa...ware-files-from

Select the firmware for iPhone 4s.

Once it finished downloading, open up iTunes and connect your 4s.

Press Shift + Restore iPhone .... a new window will open asking you to point to the firmware file you just downloaded.

Wait till it finished restoring your iPhone.

I would recommend however, before you do this to make a FULL BACKUP to the computer (via iTunes).

When you restore the backup, there should be a list of backup files, iTunes usually create a Post-restore backup file as well (which will be empty), choose the backup file that is older than that (maybe a backup file that is 20 minutes older) which should be the backup file pre-restoration.

Then restore back to this backup after upgrade rite?

Yes.

OR

(I think this applies during the Absinthe jailbreak so not sure if it is relevant to the upcoming 6.1 jailbreak)

Wait until the jailbreak is out, jailbreak the phone after the jailbreak is released, then restore the backup

But if you cannot live with an empty iPhone, go ahead and restore the backup but as I mentioned in my reply to perrhhh, make sure you chose the proper backup file. The Post-Restore backup file will be empty, look for a file that is maybe 20-30 minutes older than the last file you see.

dude, u r totally wrong. u guys can still jailbreak even if u update using software updates but need to do full restore first using itunes when u want to jailbreak it.

Dude, yes of course you can jailbreak if you do another Full Restore. If you do a full restore like what @perrrhhh or @Porie has done then you can jailbreak. Don't be so quick to point people are wrong okay.

My point is that don't come here whining why you can't jailbreak when you did the update via OTA.

If you need to do another full restore, then do the bloody full restore in the first place la.

Masuk bagi salam dulu la.

I got so confused with the answers. Apparently two answers were given.
Anyway I used iPhone5,2_6.1_10B143_Restore.ipsw; and got bounced back with error 3194. Then I changed the hosts file (C:\windows\system32\drivers\hosts) I got to restore the phone.

So still, until now, what is the real answer, really?
