Cant jailbreak iphone 4

[saintdawson]

I'm on 5.1 an when I try jailbreaking te step to put in dfu mode says I did it wrong but I no I did it right cause I jailbroke my phone befor is there a way to jailbreak my device with out going to that step

Nope, you must enter DFU mode in order to jailbreak. The screen should be completely black and if iTunes is open it should detect a device in recovery mode.

 

[saintdawson]

I enter dfu mode I no for sure I did cause I did it like 6 time but iTunes won't pop up

 

[Jmills87]

If you did then redsn0w would be able to detect the device

 

[saintdawson]

My computer won't let me re install my device to the computer could that be that problem

 

[Jmills87]

Yes, if the computer doesn't register the drivers it won't be able to detect the iPhone in DFU mode

ONly an iPhone 4S and iPad 2/3 cannot be jailbroken on 5.1

any device that is an iPhone 4 or below can still have a tethered jailbreak on iOS 5.1. there is no jailbreak AT ALL on an iPhone 4S on 5.1. Is that what you mean?

Man if u r using a mac, os 10.5 or less, use redsnOw 0.9.10b6 b and it will work

 

[mark.elhelou]

Are u on mac os 10.5 or less? If thats the case use redsnow 9.10b6 b and it wil work

Why would you recommend a person to use an outdated version of redsn0w to jailbreak the latest iOS?

 

[zig9449]

You may have to just enter DFU mode (without anything being open, like redsn0w or iTunes), and let the driers install. If they do not install then I would download them and install them manually.

I had the same problem, and searched the web for a week, untill i read on the redsnow website that they released a redsnow 0.9.10b6 b which is different than 0.9.10b6 , and it is used for mac os cerision 10.5.x or earlier.

 

[mark.elhelou]

If u have a 10.6.x mac os, than m sure u r using an old version of redsnow and should use the newest one
