    I’m in a 3GS with 4.3.2 with 06.15.00 . Do you know if there’s an unlock avaiable yet?

    • http://www.iphoneism.com Lota Man

      You’ll have to upgrade while preserving your 06.15.00 baseband. Ultrasn0w fixer is available in Cydia, it will unlock 5.0.1. Sent from my BlackBerry® Smartphone provided by Ufone

    • http://www.iphoneism.com Lota Man

      To preserve baseband, click on Extras instead of Jailbreak. Go to custom IPSW and follow the on screen instructions. Sent from my BlackBerry® Smartphone provided by Ufone

        Sorry mate. Can’t see Extras option anywhere! btw, thanks for your fast reply!

          • http://www.iphoneism.com Lota Man

            The signing window for 5.0.1 is still open, you don’t need SHSH blobs for updating to it if you’re on 5.0. Though do save the blobs once you’ve updated your device. Sent from my BlackBerry® Smartphone provided by Ufone

            Well make a backup of your device. Then do a fresh install of 5.0.1. After its done first jailbreak then restore from backup. That’s the only right way to fix this.

      NO! Don’t do that. First update to 5.0.1. Doing this in hybrid configuration will kick you in a restart loop. Sent from my BlackBerry® Smartphone provided by Ufone

    After I Jailbroke my iPod Touch 4 on iOS 5.0.1 i rebooted it and Cydia just crashes. I am mad the Jailbreak was just a rip off it still has tons of stuff that needs to be fixed.

    Jailbreak went very smooth and Cydia loads fine, but Cydia wont install anything and none of the sources will show packages. Whats the issue?
