The following guide will help you perform an untethered jailbreak through the use of Absinthe and a Mac computer. Performing the jailbreak procedure allows you to remove all limitations Apple has imposed on its iOS devices through custom security exploits. This will grant you access to the device’s operating system and will allow you to download apps that aren’t in App Store, as well as extensions and all kinds of themes.
Step 1
Download the most recent version of Absinthe for Mac. You can find the appropriate version on the iClarified.com website. Mount the downloaded dmg file and move the Absinthe application to the Mac’s desktop. Launch the Absinthe application right from your Mac’s desktop.
Step 2
Once launched the Absinthe jailbreak app will require you to plug in your iDevice. Just remove all passcodes and VPN settings so the Chroniv-Dev Absinthe jailbreak process can run without obstacles.
Step 3
To start the procedure, click the Jailbreak button. This will activate the jailbreak procedure while the software will run through several stages: beginning jailbreak, sending initial jailbreak data, sending final jailbreak data, waiting for reboot and waiting for process to complete.
Step 4
It’s really this hassle-free to jailbreak iOS 5.1.1 on your iPhone 4 using Absinthe and a Mac computer. The software will inform you that the jailbreak process is complete. Several moments after, the Cydia icon will appear on your device’s Springboard.
