<h2 style="font-size:1.2em;">How to Jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 Untethered Using Redsn0w</h2>

<p>This walkthrough is intended for those who are currently unjailbroken and using a stock iOS 5.0.1 installation. The instructions are the same for both Mac and Windows and for all iOS hardware:</p>

<ul>

<li>Launch Redsn0w</li>

<li>Connect the iOS device to the computer and then turn it off</li>

<li>Launch Redsn0w and click on “Jailbreak”</li>

<li>Put your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch into <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2010/06/24/iphone-dfu-mode-explained-and-how-to-enter-dfu-mode-on-your-iphone/">DFU mode</a>: Hold the power button for 3 seconds, continue holding Power button and additionally hold the Home button for 10 seconds, release the Power button but continue to hold the Home button for another 15 seconds</li>

<li>Let redsn0w do it’s thing, make sure “Install Cydia” is checked, and let the jailbreak install</li>

</ul>

<p>The iPhone, iPad, iPod touch will reboot and be jailbroken, find and launch Cydia to verify the jailbreak worked. The untethered solution is obviously <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2010/11/24/tethered-jailbreak-vs-untethered-jailbreak/">much easier</a> than the tethered options, there is no redsn0w boot assistance needed after the device turns on and off, and the installation is simplified as well. Enjoy the jailbreak. </p>

<p>Note for Windows users: be sure to run Redsn0w in Administrator mode, this can be done with a right-click.</p>
