iH8sn0w has just released Sn0wbreeze 2.8b11 to jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 9A405. Apple had released iOS 5.0.1 firmware to public earlier today. Since there is no exploit for untethered 5.0.1 jailbreak, this will be a tethered jailbreak which means that you will have to connect your device to the computer and perform tethered boot whenever your device reboots. Yes, its annoying but that’s the only option available for now. If you want to avoid the hassle, stay on iOS 4.3.3. You can downgrade iOS 5.0 to iOS 4.3.3 as well, if you want to.

If you want to proceed with tethered jailbreak for iOS 5.0.1 using sn0wbreeze 2.8 b11 for Windows, here is the guide:

How to Jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 9A405 with Sn0wbreeze 2.8 b11

Note: You can not jailbreak iPad 2 5.0.1 and iPhone 4S 5.0.1 at the moment as there is no public exploit for these devices. This jailbreak will work to:

  • Jailbreak iPhone 4 5.0.1
  • Jailbreak iPhone 3GS 5.0.1
  • Jailbreak iPad 1 5.0.1
  • Jailbreak iPod Touch 4G 5.0.1

Step 3: Sn0wbreeze will verify the firmware and display the device information. Once done, click next button.

Step 4: Now select the mode you want to run sn0wbreeze in, Expert Mode is best suited for those who want to preserve their baseband for unlocking. Select expert mode and click next button.

Step 5: In next screen, click on “Build IPSW” and then click on next button.

Sn0wbreeze will now cook a custom iOS 5.0.1 IPSW for your device.

Step 6: Wait for sn0wbreeze to complete the jailbreak process, it will notify you once done and custom IPSW of iOS 5.0.1 will be stored on your desktop.

Step 7: Put your device in DFU mode, you can follow onscreen instructions provided by Sn0wbreeze:

  • Connect your device to the computer and switch it off.
  • Hold power button for 2 seconds
  • Hold Power + Home buttons for 10 seconds
  • Release Power button but continue holding the Home button for up to 30 seconds.

Sn0wbreeze will notify you once your device is in DFU mode, you can then release the Home button.

Step 9: Hold the Shift key on keyboard and click on “Restore” button in iTunes.

Step 10: Browse and select the custom IPSW that you created with sn0wbreeze. It should be on your desktop.

iTunes will now restore the custom iOS 5.0.1 IPSW on your device. Once the firmware is loaded, you will need to boot tethered in order to start your device in jailbroken mode.
