How to Jailbreak iPhone 5 and iOS 6.1 Devices with Evasion

The iOS 6 and iOS 6.1 untethered jailbreak has now become a reality! As the majority of America was watching the SuperBowl yesterday, the evad3rs jailbreak team has finished their work on untethered jailbreak called evasion. The Evasi0n jailbreak has been released for all devices capable of running iOS 6 and iOS 6.1, including the iPhone 5 and iPad mini. It is a particularly exciting release for those who have been waiting for an iPhone 5 jailbreak.

The jailbreaking with the Evasion tool is surprisingly easy, but if you are new to jailbreak devices and want to see how it goes, here I will walk through the process from start to finish. Ready to get your jailbreak on? Go!

Supported devices:

 Evasi0n supports all 20+ variants of iOS devices, including the likes of iPhone 5, on iOS 6.0 through iOS 6.1. Apple TV 3 though is not supported.

Supported firmware versions:

iOS 6.0, 6.0.1, 6.0.2, 6.1 are all supported.


Before the Jailbreak, what you should NOTE:

a. It is highly recommended to make a complete backup of your device using either iTunes or iCloud before proceeding with the steps below.

b. Download iOS 6.1 and update your device to it using iTunes. Although Evasion supports all versions of iOS 6, it is still recommended to update to the latest 6.1 version before jailbreak so that you can get all the new features of iOS 6.1, with the added bonus of jailbreak. 

c. If your device is set to unlock with a passcode, go ahead and disable that. Passcode unlocking has a conflict with the evasi0n jailbreak. You can disable Passcode lock from: Settings –> General –> Passcode Lock –> Off

d. Make sure both iTunes and Xcode (if installed) are not running.

How-to jailbreak iOS 6.1 (instructions):

Step 1: Download Evasion jailbreak tool tailored for your OS (Windows/Mac/ Linux) from evasi0n (You could also download the one with the links below). 

Step 2: Open up the Evasion app that you have downloaded, and plug your iOS device into your PC with a USB cable.


Step 3: Evasi0n will recognize your device, and then it’s safe to click the “Jailbreak” button. Sit back and relax while Evasi0n does its thing.
Step 4: The tool will do its magic, and along the way it will ask you to unlock your device and tap a new “Jailbreak” icon that has been miraculously added to your Home screen.

Step 5: Let Evasi0n install the rest of the jailbreak, and your device will reboot several times to complete the process. Once this is done, Cydia should now be sitting there next to your other app icons. Just navigate to Cydia and enjoy your new jailbreak!
