The moment the Jailbreak community has been waiting for has arrived with the release of the Evasi0n software. The process of jailbreaking your phone has become pretty painless, and if you follow these steps it should be no problem.
If you’d like to start from a fresh install of iOS 6.1 and would like some help, follow these instructions.
1. Download the Evasi0n software from JailbreakNation. It very clearly says “Evasi0n” and provides a link for the Mac and Windows version. Now launch the software, and you’ll see this screen:
2. Connect your iOS device, and Evasi0n will automatically recognize it and let you know if it’s ready to be jailbroken (must be iOS 6.0-6.1).
3. Click the “Jailbreak” button and let the process begin.
4. About halfway through the jailbreak process, Evasi0n will ask you to unlock your phone and open the newly added “Jailbreak” app. Once you have done this the jailbreaking process will resume automatically.
5. Evasi0n will display the following message when it has finished jailbreaking your device:
You can now exit the software. Your phone will reboot a few times as it finishes. Once your phone completes the rebooting process, you are done! Cydia will be installed and your device is now jailbroken! Enjoy!
