Jailbreak iOS 5 Beta 6 with Snowbreeze v2.8 Beta 6

Okay, now that we told you the jailbreak was not available, then available, then not available again, iH8snow has released version 2.8 Beta 6 of Snowbreeze that supports iOS 5 Beta 6.  This release of Snowbreeze also removes the UDID check and automatically activates the device once it is restored. Also, the expiration date for the beta is removed when you create the customer firmware as well. The Baseband is also preserved with the new firmware.

One thing to keep in mind again is that this is still a tethered jailbreak, unless you are using a 3GS with an old bootrom. All other devices will need to be plugged into your PC when powered on or rebooted. There is still no jailbreak available for the iPad 2 as well.

You can follow our step by step guide here to get going with Snowbreeze. All you need to do is use your iOS Beta 6 ISPW you downloaded and follow the instructions. The jailbreak is available for the following devices:

  • iPhone 3GS (Old Bootrom and New Bootrom)
  • iPhone 4 CDMA/GSM
  • iPod Touch 3G and 4G
  • iPad
