Lethario

Both my iPad 2 and iPhone 4s on 5.0.1 are stuck at the 'beginning jailbreak' progress bar for bout 30 mins! Am I suppose to wait longer ?

Quan

Successful jailbreak on the 4s, had to use the troubleshoot 1 in order for it to work. Everything seems to be working fine for now.

Quan

Less than 10 seconds for me.

iPhoneHacks

Try troubleshooting tip 1 mentioned above.If that doesn't work, disable the passcode on your iPad, rebooting your iPad and try the above guide from step 1.

this DOES NOT WORK. Ive restored iPad 2 twice. Cydia does not open it just flashes.Take this post down I advise until its working. You will save a lot of people from restoring their iPads.

To solve White screen on the absinthe app go to settings> network> vpn and turn it on. Mine rebooted just after without me having to open the app again.

ashBEL

Tom

sorry that was: settings> general> network> vpn
