iOS 5.0.1 Untethered Jailbreak

Pod2G has released the untethered jailbreak for non A5 devices. Which is pretty much everything except for the iPad 2 and iPhone 4S.

Here are the basic steps for how to get it:

  • The untether is for iOS 5.0.1 on iPhone3GS, iPhone4, iPhone4-CDMA, iPad1, iPod touch 3G, iPod touch 4G
  • If you have one of those devices and are not on 5.0.1 yet, update now!  The SHSH window is still open for 5.0.1  If you unlock via ultrasn0w or gevey, make sure you only get to 5.0.1 via a custom IPSW!  Once you’re at 5.0.1, use the latest redsn0w 0.9.10 to both jailbreak and untether.
  • If you’re already at 5.0.1 with a tethered jailbreak, you have two choices: either run redsn0w 0.9.10 over your current jailbreak (deselect “Install Cydia” if you do that), or install the Cydia package prepared by the chronic devteam.  The patches are the same regardless of which you choose.
  • Some of you are using a hybrid 5.0/5.0.1 configuration.  If so, do not attempt to install this untether over that setup!  You will most likely get into a reboot cycle.  Do a sync and fresh restore to 5.0.1 then install the jailbreak + untether.
Here are the redsn0w download links:

FIX: Verizon iPhone 4S phone number format incorrect

Do you have a Verizon iPhone 4S that you may have upgraded from AT&T and noticed that your contacts and phone numbers are messed up? Are they missing the dashes? In other words, the phone numbers all look like 7432677431 instead of (743)267-7431.

Most people see this issue if they are upgrading from an iPhone 3G on AT&T to the iPhone 4S on Verizon. When you set up your iPhone 4S and restore from a backup from an old device like the iPhone 3G or iPhone 3GS you will run into issues. To fix this problem is pretty simple. All you have to do is have Verizon reactivate  your iPhone 4S.

Here are the steps to fix the problem:
1. Open the Phone app and on the keypad dial *228. This is a Verizon over-the-air programming number.
2. When the system answer press 1 for “Program or activate your phone”
3. Wait for the call to disconnect. You should get a prompt stating something like, “Settings updated.”
4. Open the Task Manager by double clicking the home button and close all of the apps by holding down one of them until they wiggle. Then press the minus icon above them to close.
5. Wait a few minutes for everything to update.
6. Open the Message or Contact App to verify everything was fixed.

If the problem is still not fixed, make sure to close out all of your apps and reboot the iPhone.

Apple Releases Minor Apple TV Software Update

Apple has just released a relatively small over-the-air update to the Apple TV. Apple has brought some bug fixes to the little box after the major “iOS 4.4″ (5.0) update that the Apple TV received 5 days ago.

Apple has yet to detail exactly what has changed, but I was experiencing some AirPlay mirroring bugs with my iPhone 4S and they seem to have been fixed with this new update.
