This Friday saw the release of the long-awaited Absinthe 2.0, which enables untethered jailbreak of iOS devices running firmware 5.1.1. If you belong to the jailbreak community that uses jailbreak, the following tutorial will certainly come in handy. 

Absinthe 2.0 is the work of the Cronic-Dev team, which has already contributed to several jailbreak solutions, such as Greenpois0n. The hacker has the biggest stake in the new jailbreak Pod2g, who enjoys a reputation as the successor to the now legendary George Hotz, known as Geohot. Absinthe 2.0 can be used for all devices with iOS 5.1.1 (Absinthe is intended ONLY for this version of the system) except Apple TV 3rd generation. A revision of the iPad 2 with a 32 nm processor, referred to as iPad 2,4 (released together with the new iPad), will be jailbroken at a later date.

Absinthe 2.0 walkthrough if you don't have a jailbreak

  • Back up your iDevice in iTunes. This action can be done, for example, by pressing the right mouse button on the name of the device in the left panel and then pressing it Back up (Back Up).
  • When your backup is complete, go to Settings – General – Reset on your iDevice and select “Wipe data and settings”. This process will significantly speed up the following work.
  • Launch Absinthe on your computer and make sure your iDevice is connected via USB
  • Click on the “Jailbreak” option and wait. Do not disconnect the USB cable during this time.
  • Once your iDevice is jailbroken, go back to iTunes and restore your data ("Restore from Back Up"). This will restore all your apps, photos, music, settings and more to your device.
