  • If you have a passcode set on your device, make sure you disable it before following the instructions below. 
  • Compatible with iPhones and iPads

Using Evasi0n for untethered jailbreak iOS 6.x

Step 1: Download Evasi0n 1.5.3 here (mac version) or here (windows version).  Uncompressed file and extract to your computer desktop.
Step 2: Connect the device to be jailbroken with your computer.
Step 3: Launch the evasi0n.exe and click on “Jailbreak” button to start the iOS 6.x untethered jailbreak process. 
Step 4: When prompted as shown on 3rd step below, go to your iDevice and tap on the Jailbreak icon newly loaded to your device.
Step 5: Be patient and wait for the process to complete.  When the payload process is complete and you’re confronted with your device’s lock screen, the ever familiar Cydia icon will be present on the home screen. The device is now successfully jailbroken untethered and you can now install any extensions or packages via Cydia, provided that your device is supported by them.



Those who wish to upgrade, please download a copy of the latest ipsw (or if you saved the blob of previous version) and restore to the latest version before jailbreaking.  List of firmware is available here.
