You now have your semi untethered
Jailbreak on iOS 5!
Here’s more information on the
“semitetherd” Jailbreak (that’s the official name) from BigBoss:
1) Can use phone, sms (text
messages)
2) Can use every other stock app on
iphone.
3) Cannot use mobile safari
4) Can use other appstore web
browsers such as atomic web browser
5) Cannot use mail app. You could
install a gmail app from appstore or such instead.
6) You cannot use any jailbreak
tweak, app, cydia until you boot tethered.
7) While in the semitether booted
state, you should not add a jailbreak ios5 notification such as sbsettings to
notifications during this state or your device will be stuck in a respring loop
until you get home to “boot tethered”
Stay tuned for future Jailbreak
tutorials!
Once you're Jailbroken with Redsn0w,
go into Cydia and install the only package from the following source: http://thebigboss.org/semitether
