The initial Absinthe tool for iOS 5.0.1 accompanied with it a new method for jailbreaking iOS devices, so with that in mind, don’t be alarmed if the device looks like if it is going through a restore process. The progress bar on the Absinthe GUI will provide user feedback, please don’t touch the device at this time.

Step 6: When the payload process is done and you’re seeing your device’s lock screen, the ever familiar Cydia icon will be present on the home screen. Your device is now successfully jailbroken untethered and you can now install any extensions or packages through Cydia, provided that your device is supported by them.

That’s it! Congratulations! You just successfully jailbroken your iPhone4S, iPhone 4, iPhone 3G, iPad 3, iPad 2, iPad, iPod Touch 4th or 3rd gen all in iOS 5.1.1.
