Spirit Untethered Jailbreak for iPad, iPhone, iPod is Released!
Quote:
I've updated the jailbreak tool. It no longer deletes photos (sorry!) and should resolve the issue with error code c0000005. (If you still get that error with the new version, try setting compatibility mode to Windows 95.)
The Spirit jailbreak is now out! Congratulations to @comex for the first userland jailbreak since the 1.x days.
Spirit provides an untethered jaibreak on those newer devices which used to require a computer nearby to finish the boot process. Spirit is able to do this because it doesn’t actually kick in until after the kernel is running.
How to Jailbreak Your iPhone, iPod & iPad Using Spirit (Windows)
These are instructions on how to perform an untethered jailbreak on your iPhone using the Spirit Jailbreak and Windows.
To follow these instructions you must be using an activated device not stuck on the Connect to iTunes or Emergency Call screen.
Any version of iTunes 9 til 9.1.1 will work.

Step Three
Connect your iPhone and press the Jailbreak button.
Step Five
The Spirit app will then let you know the jailbreak is complete.
