Jailbreak iPhone 4S 5.0.1

I'll write a quick instruction guide for anyone still struggling while my phone syncs. FOLLOW EVERYTHING PRECISELY and I am more than confident it will work for you too. Ready? Let's do this.

Here's how:

Download the file:
1) backup your iphone
2) Go onto your iphone into settings and find "Erase all content and settings"
3) When it turns back on, set it up.
- Pick your language and location.
- DO NOT enable location services.
- Put in your wifi and other stuff.
- Click set up as a new phone.
- Do not input apple ID, click skip this step.
- Do not turn on siri or diagnostic reporting, its all irrelevant as you will go back to your backed up settings anyway.

4)Plug your phone in via usb.

On computer:
1) Extract all files
2) Open a console (Command Prompt or Terminal) as Administrator/Root
3) Follow the steps:

"cd cinject_0.4.3"
"./cinject -i payloads/jailbreak.mobileconfig"

4) Your phone should unlock and go to the VPN screen.
5) Click Install, approve the pop-up box. DO NOT PUT IN A PASSWORD. Just click next.

Put phone down, go back to computer.

6) In your command line, type
"./cinject -j payloads"

If you have followed all the steps to this point ,everything should be fine, it will make a backup quickly and restore the backup. If it gives you an error, theres a good chance you didn't follow my instructions. try again.

7) At the end of the process it will say something like input cinject -w to watch for log and toggle VPN. Do what it tell you to do.
8) Your command screen will go crazy as it processes and executes commands. Leave it be for about 5 seconds. When everything slows down a bit, on your iphone go to VPN and turn it ON.
9) Expect more crazy commands to fly, ignore any error messages, DO NOT PANIC. It takes some time.

Once again, if you have followed all of the instructions to this point you should not receive any errors. Your iphone will do everything it is supposed to and at the end of the command line it will say something like "iPhone fairplayed". or something like that.

10) When it reboots, unlock it and go to second page. SURPISE! Cydia. Open cydia, let it do its thing and it will restart your iphone when its done.
11) In the meantime, close your command window, after your iphone restarts, open itunes.
12) Let it restore from your backup that you should've made if you followed my instructions. It will reboot and install all of your stuff as you sit there with a big grin on your face.
13) While your stuff installs, don't be an ungrateful and donate to the dream team for their amazing and dedicated efforts.

All your stuff should be on your iDevice. When it is done syncing, go and have some fun! :)
