Jailbreaking 6.1.2

There are plenty of posts out there on jailbreaking your iphone and this is just one of them. However, since I have successfully jailbroken an iPhone 4s iOS 6.1.2 using Envasi0n I figured I would share. 

  1. Be sure to first backup your iPhone using these instructions.
  2. Create a folder called Pwnage on your desktop
  3. Download Evasi0n from here .
  4. Extract the Evasi0n zip file to the Pwnage folder on your desktop.
  5. Remove any lock screen passcodes on your device
  6. Double click the newly created evasi0n-win folder to open it.
  7. Make sure your iPhone is connected via USB cable. 
  8. Right click the Evasi0n icon and select Run as Administrator from the context menu to launch the app.
  9. The app will retrieve information from the device to generate jailbreak data, inject stage 1 jailbreak data, reboot the device, wait for the device to be ready, inject stage 2 jailbreak data, upload Cydia, and upload the Cydia packages list.
  10. You will next be asked to unlock your device and tap the new 'Jailbreak' app icon. It is imperative that you only tap the icon once. The app will open and immediately close.
  11. Evasi0n will then inject the remount payload, remount the root filesystem, prepare the final jailbreak data, inject the final jailbreak data, and complete!
