Actually it's an old tool so you will jailbreak your iDevice and will connect it to your computer to boot using Redsn0w whenever your iDevice is switched off or rebooted, yes you can use SemiTether to jailbreak your iDevice with this iOS 5.0.1, your iDevice will boot but will not function to a satisfactory degree until connecting your device to Redsn0w.


Important Notes:


  • iPhone 4S and iPad 2 not supported
  • If you want Untethered jailbreak please stay away!
For Unlockers Only:

  • For those of you who unlocked iPhone 4 using GEVEY SIM interposer, you should create a custom, IPSW which will preserve your baseband.
  • To active this, you should open Redsn0w, hit “Extras”, then “Custom IPSW” then point REdsnow to your iOS 5.0.1.
  • Finally, open pwned DFU mode and select:
