If you don't know how to Jailbreak using a Custom Firmware ( IPSW ) this is the right place to start , so what is a custom IPSW :
Its a modified Original iOS firmware that has injected in it Cydia and other Jailbreaking codes .
The programs that handle or build those firmwares are :
- Sn0wbreeze ( Windows Users )
- Pwnagetool ( Mac Users )
In this tutorial we will use Snowbreeze because I don't use a MAC . Before we start keep in mind that Sn0wbreeze has different software versions for every iOS firmware , what this means is that the latest Sn0wbreeze Version is not compatible with the previous ones , down is a list for every version & what iOS firmware it supports :
- sn0wbreeze 2.7 [ For 4.2.8/4.3.3 ]
- sn0wbreeze 2.6.1 [ For 4.2.7/4.3.2 ]
- sn0wbreeze 2.5.1 [ For 4.3.1 ]
- sn0wbreeze 2.2.1 [ For 4.2.1 ]
- sn0wbreeze 2.1 [ For 3.2.2/4.1 ]
- sn0wbreeze 2.0.2 [ For 3.1.x to 4.0 ]
So lets start by Creating a New Folder on the Desktop, rename them as the picture then download the followings onto the JB needed files :
- Sn0wbreeze ( The version you want to )
- Original iOS Firmware( IPSW ) that you want to install on your iDevice
- TinyUmbrella ( If you get 3194 error or similar )
What does iFaith + iReb + TinyUmbrella ?
- iFaith : Dumps SHSH blobs for present iOS revision on iDevice and creates a pre-signed IPSW.
- iReb : Put your device into a jailbreakable state.
- TinyUmbrella : It does two things:
- Requests SHSH signatures for firmware restores .
- Plays back those signatures enabling iTunes to continue the restore .
- We will save the SHSH Blobs .
- Setting the iDevice in a Jail-breakable mode .
- We will Create a Custom IPSW .
- We will Install the Custom IPSW to the iDevice .
- Learning to Bypass any iTunes error .
Saving the SHSH Blobs :

Learning to Bypass any iTunes error :
Error 1015 :
The problem, according to the Apple support forum, comes when you try to downgrade your iPhone.
This error is common when downgrading iPhones and 3G-enabled iPads. The problem occurs when the device's baseband has a higher version number than the baseband in the firmware you restored to. Just set auto-boot true in iRecovery or use iREB/TinyUmbrella/RecBoot.
Fix : Watch this Video on how to Downgrade or this Video on how to fix 1015
Error 3194 :
Occurs when trying to install an old firmware and Apple's server disallows the installation. The only solution is to have SHSH backup and modify the hosts file to point to Saurik's Cydia Server where they are backed up (or localhost if you have it yourself).
Fix : Watch this Video
Error 1013 :
This means that the baseband did not get updated. Either remove the gs.apple.com entry from your hosts file and let the baseband upgrade or if you want to preserve the baseband just jailbreak at this point to boot it up.
Other Devices
Restart computer; change computer; reinstall system, if iPhone is always in restoring mode: XP users can jump from restoring mode with ibus; MAC users can use iNdependence. (usually on the iPhone with 1.0.2 firmware downgraded from 1.1.1)
Fix : Watch this Video on how to change host file .
Error 1014 :

Jailbreaking is the process of removing Apple software restrictions for iOS devices. Jailbroken devices authorize root access on devices and it will let you install apps not available on the Apple app store. Jailbreak developers achieved root access through exploitation of vulnerabilities that exist on iOS versions, as well iOS devices.
Reason to jailbreak
The main reason to jailbreak is Apple features are limited. We can not install third party apps and it’s only allowed to install app store apps approved by Apple. Apple always checked the apps with the iOS developer program license agreement before distributing through the App Store. Also, banned apps which violated the agreement based on safety and security reasons.
However, Jailbreaking grants you to download apps not approved by Apple to get unlimited features with customization options. A lot of people are motivated to install Jailbreak tweaks to personalize and customize their iOS device. There are plenty of Jailbreak tweaks developed by developers which are easier to use than Apple’s. Also, some jailbreak features are adopted by Apple in many iOS versions.
Package managers
Package manager is a collection of software for jailbroken devices. It’s capable of running processes of installing, upgrading, configuring, and removing applications automatically.
Cydia is the most popular package manager for Jailbroken devices. Jay Freeman, also known as saurik, developed Cydia to manage jailbroken devices.
Also, there are a few other package managers such as Sileo, Zebra and Installer 5. These package managers allow users to install packages from any source on the internet. Also, every jailbreak and package manager comes with a set of default repositories.
Unlocking
Unlocking and jailbreaking are entirely different things. Even the software Jailbreak goes with iOS versions, Unlock is valid for the device. Unlocking is removing carrier-lock to enable use with other carriers.
You cannot unlock the latest iOS versions using jailbreak, but users can unlock their devices using Jailbreak. UltraSn0w is the most popular unlocking source for jailbroken devices. Developers (iPhone Dev-Team) updated Ultrasn0w to iOS 6.1 and gave up the Ultrasn0w project. But, there is no available jailbroken unlocking method now.
Legal Status of Jailbreaking
The legal side of Jailbreaking was first discussed in 2007 mentioning an exception for unlocking carriers from the Library of Congress. After that, the US Copyright Office directly recognized an exemption to the DMCA to permit jailbreaking which allows iPhone owners to use their phones with applications that are not available from Apple’s store & unlock their iPhones for use with unapproved carriers in 2010. Previously Apple complained against this exemption saying that jailbreaking to be a violation of copyright law. Thenconsiders DMCA exemptions must be reviewed and renewed every three years or else they expire.
In 2012, the US Copyright Office released a new exemption to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) that jailbreaking of smartphones continued to be legal & refused to extend this exemption to tablets, such as iPads. However In 2015, these exemptions were extended to include other devices, including tablets.
Accordingly, software Jailbreak is legal according to the US government. However, Apple may deny service for an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that has installed any unauthorized software.
Types of Jailbreaking
Different types of jailbreaking available. Any jailbreak tool belongs to one of these types.
Untethered Jailbreak – Untethered jailbreak is defined as a permanent and real solution. You can reboot your iPhone or iPod touch as much as you want without losing jailbreak. Ex: Old Pangu Jailbreak.
Tethered Jailbreak – Tethered jailbreak is defined as a temporary. It means you will lose the jailbreak every time after reboot. The Tethered method does not allow you to restart your device. Ex : Old Redsn0w Jailbreak.
Semi-tethered Jailbreak – Semi-tethered Jailbreak is the combination of the above methods. This method allows you to restart your device with limited use and you need to run the jailbreak tool to get full functional cydia. According to the Semi-tethered jailbreak, it needs to get PC support to run the jailbreak tool repeatedly, when Cydia is lost. Ex- Newly released Checkra1n Jailbreak.
Semi-untethered Jailbreak – Semi-untethered jailbreak is very similar to Semi-tethered Jailbreak. One and only difference is the Semi-untethered Jailbreak method never asks PC support to resolve Cydia when it is lost in every reboot. Ex: Unc0ver Jailbreak, Taurine jailbreak.
Semi Jailbreak – Semi Jailbreak is another jailbreak method. It allows you to install themes, tweaks, iOS customization apps and some popular Jailbreak functions with the system root access of your iPhone or iPad. However, it does not install Cydia on your device. Houdini semi jailbreak & Rootless JB are the most popular semi jailbreak methods.
Online Jailbreak (No PC) – Most jailbreak tools ask PC or Mac support to complete the jailbreak process. But with Online jailbreak you don’t need to use Computer support. JailbreakMe is the only tool which is possible to complete the jailbreak process without using a computer.
However, most jailbreak repo extractors, third party app stores provide online Jailbreak IPA files for all full functional Jailbreak methods such as Unc0ver, Taurine, Chimera, etc. Read more about Online jailbreak IPA methods from Jailbreak without PC Page.
Lightning cable Jailbreak – Lightning cable Jailbreak is another hardware related concept. Hackers turn Apple’s Lightning connector to debug kernel bugs. Because of this method, it can use Lightning cable for future jailbreak. Yuxigon is the lightning connector jailbreak ever.
Jailbreakable Apple devices
iPhone has default limitations to device customizations / system file access. So iPhone jailbreak is the only solution to get all the missing features to your iPhone device. Also, some features are only available in the latest iPhone models given below.
iPhone 12, 12 Pro, 12 Pro Max, 12 mini – Apple released the iPhone 12 series with three new models. iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max were launched at the Apple event with iOS 14.1. Go to the iPhone 12 jailbreak page for more details.
iPhone 11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max – Apple released the new 03 models as iPhone 11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max with iOS 13 at the 2019 Apple event. Go to iPhone 11 Jailbreak page for more jailbreak details.
iPhone X, XS, XS Max and XR – Apple released iPhone XS, XS Max and XR at the iOS 12 launch event with the most powerful A12 bionic chip. Also, Apple released the iPhone X to celebrate their 10th Anniversary with the A11 Processor. Click iPhone X, XS Jailbreak to get more details.
iPad – The iPad has less expandability / limited customization/cannot run third party software. Apple included multitasking features in the latest iPad OS releases. However, some older iPad cannot get these features without jailbreaking. So iPad jailbreak is the only solution to bypass all these restrictions.
iPod Touch – Apple refers to iPod Touch as “iPhone without the phone.” Normally, iPod Touch design is mainly for playing music and video / digital camera /game devices. iPod Touch users cannot get phone calls / cellular network data /voice recording capability/Can not play other media formats. iPod Touch jailbreak allows you to get some awesome features.
Apple TV – Apple TV jailbreak is available to get jailbreak features such as weather slideshows on your TV menu and screen saver settings adjustment. Jailbroken devices will offer Hulu, ESPN, Amazon, Last.fm, Pandora, PBS, A&E, ABC, CBS, NBA, MTV media services.
Apple Watch – Most valuable functions are not available in Apple Watch yet. Web browser support /advance clock types /custom watch faces are the top missing features. Even though Jailbreak is the way to get it, there is no iWatch jailbreak solution for Apple Watches yet.
Jailbreaking tools

Jailbreaking vs Android rooting
Jailbreaking of iOS devices is similar to rooting of Android devices because both are used to grant the system-level privileges, which may be transferred to one or more apps.
But, Android devices already allow the user to sideload 3rd-party apps installed from other sources. Also allow users to modify or replace the full operating system after unlocking the bootloader.
However, Apple has security features that bootloaders can not be unlocked by the owner to modify the operating system. Also, it is prohibited to install private applications onto corporate phones, sideloading 3rd-party apps onto iOS devices from sources other than the Apple Store. iOS Jailbreaking removes these restrictions and offers modified or pirated releases of popular apps through Cydia which is similar to Android.
How to install apk files
apk files are created for Android devices. It runs only on Google’s mobile operating system. Normally, apk apps cannot install on iDevices running iOS operating systems. However, after the jailbreak process it can install apk apps / files as third party apps on jailbroken iPhones and iPads. But, it cannot work with apk apps properly on iOS devices. Because it uses a different coding system to write apk files. So, it is no use installing apk files on jailbroken iPhones or iPads.

Risks
While jailbreaking gives you more valuable features there are also risks.
Installation of malware – Computer criminals are more likely to crash an iPhone to install malware, or to target an iPhone that could easily install malware. So, once you jailbreak your device it will access the file system. So it lets you install malware easily with hacking softwares. Jailbreaking allows you to install pirated applications as well. These apps are not monitored through Apple developers programme. So, Piracy apps could take advantage of installing malware.
It has reported many Security, privacy and stability issues with jailbroken devices for a long time. Here are some of them.
iPhone worm, iKee (2009) – The first iPhone worm created to raise awareness of security issues that jailbreaking can leave your device in an insecure state.
F-Secure (2009) – A malicious worm compromising bank transactions from jailbroken phones in the Netherlands.
John Gruber (2010) – He reported remote code exploits now in the wild and the exploit allowed the creator of a malicious website to take control of iPhones accessing it.
Forbes (2012) – It has analyzed 1,407 free programs available from Apple and a third-party source. From this 825 were downloaded from Apple’s App Store using the website App Tracker, and 526 from BigBoss Cydia’s default repository. Cydia leaked the device ID and location, photos and browsing history, while the App Store leaked none.
KeyRaider (2015) – This malware led to stealing users’ login and password information from more than 225,000 people.
Hardware Jailbreak
Hardware Jailbreak is somewhat different from Software Jailbreak. Some hackers could add extra features to modifying the hardware of iPhones.
Currently, Hardware Jailbreak is only available for iPhones up to iPhone X.
Still, Hardware Jailbreak is not available for iPhone XS, XS Max, and XR.
Popular Hardware Jailbreaking
* Blinking light effect to Apple Logo
* Speaker lights for Speakers
Unfortunately, Hardware Jailbreak is not as easy as the Software Jailbreak. You must have excellent ability to set extra hardware removing iPhone cases.
