How to Jailbreak the iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple TV

How to Jailbreak the iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple TV

This page is our ultimate guide to jailbreaking. Along with information and frequently asked questions about everything jailbreak related, you will find some detailed tutorials on how to jailbreak your iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, and Apple TV.

If you already know a lot about jailbreaking and you’re just looking for guides and tutorials, then scroll down to find instructions on how to jailbreak. If you are new to jailbreaking and want to learn more, we suggest you spend a few minutes reading more about this simple process.
At the bottom of this page, you will find information about various jailbreak methods. Simply look for the iOS version you want to jailbreak and the type of iOS device you have, then click on the link to see a detailed tutorial about jailbreaking the iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, and Apple TV.

What is Jailbreaking?

Jailbreaking is the process by which Apple’s mobile operating system, iOS, is modified to run unsigned code in order to gain access to files that Apple wouldn’t normally let you access.
Jailbreaking adds unofficial application installers to your iOS device, such as Cydia, which let you download many 3rd-party applications, tweaks, and extensions that are unavailable through the App Store. These packages open up endless possibilites to do things on your iOS device that a non-jailbroken iOS device would never be able to do.
You can install extensions that give you instant access to your system settings from anywhere on your iOS device, bypass certain restrictions set in place by Apple and the carriers, and find packages that give you more control over your iOS experience.
Jailbreaking is about freeing your iOS device from Apple’s restrictions to let you install anything you want.

What are the Benefits of Jailbreaking?

The main reason why you’d want to jailbreak is to have the ability to install third party applications and tweaks that Apple doesn’t or wouldn’t approve in the App Store. There are tons of applications that don’t meet Apple standards and do things that Apple doesn’t want you to do on your iOS device for various reasons.
For example, Apple doesn’t allow you to customize your iPhone by changing app icons or the general user interface of your device. Thanks to the jailbreak community, there are several ways to completely change the way your iPhone looks, WinterBoard being the most popular one.
Besides applications, jailbreaking also gives you access to tweaks, mods, and extensions. These not exactly considered applications. They bring subtle improvements to the way your iOS device operates. For instance, Five Icon Switcher is a tweak that lets you have 5 icons in the iPhone app switcher at once, instead of the default 4.
A lot of people jailbreak their iOS device in order to unlock it to work on a different carrier. When you want to unlock your iPhone, the first step is to jailbreak it to then run and run software that will let you have other carriers work on your iPhone. For for information on unlocking, visit or dedicated unlock page.

Is Jailbreaking Legal?

Its illegal in india and apple will do anything to sue you. 

Does Jailbreaking Void my Warranty?

Yes and no. Yes, because if you go to the Apple store and show your jailbroken iPhone to an Apple employee, you will be told that you can’t receive customer support because you voided your warranty the minute you jailbroke. Apple of course acknowledges the US government’s DMCA exception ruling that makes jailbreak legal, but that doesn’t mean that Apple has to allow jailbreak in its customer agreement.
From Apple’s support article on jailbreaking:
“Apple strongly cautions against installing any software that hacks the iOS. It is also important to note that unauthorized modification of the iOS is a violation of the iPhone end-user license agreement and because of this, Apple may deny service for an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that has installed any unauthorized software.”
If you really have to take your iOS device to an Apple store, you can always restore it to its factory settings in iTunes. This will bring your iOS device back to the way it was when you first bought it, and Apple will have no way of telling that you ever jailbroke.
Many people have taken previously jailbroken devices to Apple several times before that were restored beforehand. Apple is usually not able to tell will provide full and normal customer support.

Can I Brick My iPhone if I Jailbreak?

You might have heard a few horror stories about people who tried to jailbreak their iPhone and ended up turning it into a brick. While this could have happened in the early days of the iPhone, this is now completely impossible.
The worst thing that could happen when trying to jailbreak is that it might get stuck and become unresponsive, in which case some people may automatically think that there’s no hope. You’re always able to restore your iOS device’s firmware back to the stock version, and following these simple steps will make sure your iPhone goes back to its original state.

Is Jailbreaking the Same as Unlocking?

No, jailbreaking and unlocking are two different things. To unlock your iPhone, you usually have to jailbreak first. As noted previously, jailbreaking an iPhone lets you install third party applications and mods, while unlocking allows you to use your iPhone on a different carrier.
You can learn more about the difference between jailbreaking and unlocking if you’re interested.

Can I Still Use iTunes and the App Store After Jailbreaking?

People often ask this question. Yes, you can use iTunes and the App Store after jailbreaking your device. As a matter of fact, nothing will really change. The only notable change to your iOS device will be that, after jailbreaking, you will have a new application installed on your device called Cydia.

What is Cydia?

In short, Cydia is like the App Store of jailbreak applications. Just like the App Store, you can browse Cydia for apps, tweaks, and mods. Just like the App Store, you can download and install Cydia apps effortlessly. Most apps and tweaks in Cydia are free, but it is not unusual for a jailbreak app to sell for a few dollars.

Will Jailbreaking Prevent Me from Updating iOS?

If your iOS device is jailbroken and you decide to update it to the latest version of iOS, doing so will overwrite the jailbreak and restore your device to its factory settings. This might not be a big problem for most people, but it can become an issue for people who rely a lot of jailbreak apps and tweaks.
Every time Apple releases a new iOS update, hackers generally aren’t too far behind with an update for the tools that let you jailbreak. When a new iOS version and accompanying jailbreak are released, the preferred method is to backup your device first, update to the latest iOS version, and jailbreak again using one of the updated tools.
It’s important to note that it sometimes takes a while for hackers to develop a jailbreak following an iOS update, which is why we usually recommend jailbreakers to hold off on updating when a new iOS version is made available.

What are the different types of jailbreaks?

The are 3 types of jailbreaks: tethered, semi tethered, and untethered. Read this article to learn more about the differences between these kinds of jailbreak.

Can Jailbreaking Allow Me to Get App Store Applications for Free?

Yes, but we do not recommend installing pirated apps on your jailbroken device. Not only are you doing something illegal, but you’re also stealing money from hard working developers. We do not help troubleshoot or give support on app piracy.

Is Jailbreaking Easy?

These days, jailbreaking is very easy. Usually, you just need to download a piece of software, plug your iOS device into your computer, and run the software. There is no specific knowledge or skills required.
You will find some very useful tutorials on how to jailbreak at the bottom of this page. If you don’t feel completely comfortable jailbreaking your iOS device, make sure to have a look at our tutorials, they will guide you through the process with step-by-step instructions and illustrations.

What is the Best Jailbreak Tool?

There isn’t a “best” jailbreak tool, as tools are constantly being updated and replaced with new and improved methods. Performing an actual jailbreak can be a very different experience depending on your iOS device and software version. What tool you use is also determined by if you use a Mac or Windows computer.

Does it Cost Anything to Jailbreak?

No. You should never pay for a jailbreak.
Hackers that develop jailbreaks do it for free, sometimes (rarely) asking for donations. Some people may charge you to jailbreak your iOS device for you. If it makes you feel better to pay someone, you can do that, but why pay when you can do it yourself for free?

Bypass any Firewall or Throttling ISP with SSH

Bypass any Firewall or Throttling ISP with SSH

On some networks it’s impossible to use BitTorrent. For example, if you’re at work, school, or connected to Comcast or a public hotspot. But there’s an easy solution to overcome this problem. By using a secure connection (SSH), you can bypass almost every firewall or traffic shaping application.
Here’s a relatively simple 3-step guide that will show you how to set it up.
I wouldn’t recommend BitTorrent over SSH as a permanent solution since it will cripple the servers of the SSH providers. If you’re looking for a long term solution check out a VPN service such as BTGuard.

1. Get an SSH account.

You need an SSH account in order to get this working. You can try one of these free shell providers from this list.

2. Download, Install and Configure Putty

Download Putty, store it somewhere on your computer and run it. In the session screen enter the host name, the port number (22), and tick the connection type box (SSH).
ssh putty tunnels
Next, go to SSH –> Tunnels, enter a source port and tick the dynamic box. I’m using port 23456, but you are free to choose any post you like as long as it’s available.
ssh
When you’re done, it might be a good idea to save the session so you don’t have to enter the info next time you run Putty. If you’re ready, hit the “open” button in the session screen. A command-line interface will pop-up so enter your username and password that you received from your shell-provider, and you’re done.

3. Configure your BitTorrent client.

The last step is to configure your BitTorrent client. I will show you how it’s done in uTorrent and Azureus but other BitTorrent clients use a similar setup.
uTorrent: go to Options > Preferences > Connection. Enter your port number (I use 23456), socks 4 or 5 as type, and localhost in the proxy field.
Azureus: go to Tools > Options > Connection > Proxy Options. Tick the “Enable proxying of tracker communications” and “I have a SOCKS proxy” box. Next, enter your port number in the port field (I use 23456) and localhost in the host field.
utorrent ssh configuration
When you’re done, restart your BitTorrent client and you’re ready to go. BitTorrent over SSH tends to be a bit slower than your normal connection, but it’s a great solution when BitTorrent connections are blocked or throttled.

FUD Crypter

FUD Crypter

FUD is acronym for fully undetectable.It is a software that can be used to encrypt your exe files.
What is the use of FUD Crypter?
FUD crypters can be used to encrypt viruses,RAT,keyloggers,spywares etc to make them undetectable from antiviruses.You can also read my post on spywares,viruses and worms or How to fool Keyloggers.When these exe files are encrypted with Fud crypters they become undetectable with antiviruses
How Does FUD Crypter Work?
The Basic Working Of FUD Crypter is explained below
The Crypter takes the original binary file of you exe and applies many encryption on it and stores on the end of file(EOF).So a new crypted executable file is created.
Original Exe Crypted Exe
001————- 010 101————-110
100|Original File|000-> Cryptor ->010|Original File|110
010————- 111 110————-010
The new exe is not detected by antiviruses because its code is scrambled by the crypter.When executed the new .exe file decrypts the binary file into small the data small pieces at a time and injects them into another already existing process or a new empty one, OR it drops the code into multiple chunks in alternative data streams(not scanned by most a/v) then executes it as a .txt or .mp3 file.
Why Most FUD Crypters Donot Work?
As a FUD crypter becomes popular it also get the eyes of antivirus companies.The antivirus companies update their software and employ detection mechanism that detect the encryption’s by the crypter.So, most of the popular FUD crypter are easily detected by antiviruses.
Where can I test Whether my Crypter is FUD or not?
To test you crypter encrypt any virus with it and test it on http://vscan.novirusthanks.org and make sure you check the box Do not distribute the sample .

Note:-Donot test your crypter on virustotal.com as it distributes the samples and your crypter will not remain FUD if you scan with virustotal.
Where can I Download a Free FUD crypter?
As I already mentioned that as the crypter becomes popular it doesnot remain FUD.So the only FUD crypter available are those made by indivuals and they can be found by spending a little time on google by searching.It will not make profit to anybody if I share my FUD crypter here as it will not remain FUD for long as some noobs will surely scan it with virustoal.So,its better you search your own and keep it to yourself.
Download Free FUD Crypter
I am giving you a link to a free crypter so that you can play it with and test whether it is FUD or not.

Add OS X Styled Stacks to Your Computer with 7Stacks

Add OS X Styled Stacks to Your Computer with 7Stacks

Do you love how Stacks look in Mac OS X and want to add that kind of functionality to your Windows system? Here we look at 7Stacks which gives you a similar experience.
Note: Stacks attach to the Taskbar in Windows 7 and to the Quick Launch Toolbar in Vista and XP.
Setting Up Your New Stacks
Installation of 7Stacks is simple and straightforward. As soon as you start the app you can immediately begin creating stacks using this window. Notice that you will need to choose between two browsing options to “add” the appropriate folder for your new stack.
The “SF Button” is for “special folders” and the “… Button” is for adding any regular folder that you desire. We decided to begin with a regular folder first.
Note: The default “Stack Type” is “Vertical Stack”.
7-stacks-01
We browsed until we found the Internet Browsers folder from our start menu, selected it, and clicked “OK”.

As you can see more details are filled in now such as “Target Path” and the “Caption/Name” for this particular stack. Once you have things sorted click on “Create Shortcut on Desktop”.
Note: You may want to deselect the “Show Explore Item” option if you do not want to access the “stack’s originating folder” using Windows Explorer and wish to cut down on “clutter” in your stacks.

Here is our new “Stack Shortcut” on the Desktop…

In Windows 7 right click on the shortcut and select “Pin to Taskbar”. For those using Windows Vista and XP drag the shortcut to your “Quick Launch Toolbar”.

There is our first stack full of browser shortcut goodness.

If you want access to the shortcuts in one of the folders in the stack click on it and it will open (“shift into focus”) as shown here.

Whenever you are ready to create a new stack right click on any existing “stack icons” and select “Create a new stack”.

This time we decided to create a stack for a “special folder” and use “Grid” as the “Stack Type”.

When you click on the “SF Button” you will see a “classic start menu styled” menu. You can choose one of the preset choices in the main area or browse through the “Start Menu, Common Folders, & Other” sub-areas. Here we chose “My Pictures”…

Once again click on “Create Shortcut on Desktop” to finish your new stack and add it to your “Taskbar or Quick Launch Bar”.

Here is our “Pictures Stack” using the “Grid Setting”. Looking good…

For our final addition we created a stack for “My Documents” using the “Menu Stack Type”.

Not bad at all. Notice how the folders are set up for easy content browsing.

A look at our three stacks pinned to the “Taskbar”.

Preferences
There are only a few preferences to sort through for 7Stacks…”Text Appearance, Behavior, & Stack Closing Style”.

Conclusion
If you have been wanting Mac OS X Stacks style functionality in your Windows system then 7Stacks is definitely worth taking a look at.
Links
Note: Download link has been updated to reflect changes at the 7Stacks homepage.

Access Hidden Regional Themes in Windows 7

Access Hidden Regional Themes in Windows 7

Windows 7 offers you location specific Aero themes based on the language and location you pick during installation. Here we will take a look at accessing other hidden themes from different countries.
When you first start the Windows 7 installation the first thing you will do is select a language, time and currency format. This is where Windows determines what themes you’re presented with by default.
2Inst
Being from the US I’m presented with location specific themes from the United States with desktop backgrounds such as scenery from Maine, Idaho, Oregon etc.

To access the other international themes copy and paste the following path into the search box and hit Enter.
C:\Windows\Globalization\MCT

In the MCT folder you will find additional themes for Canada, Australia, South Africa, and Great Britain.

You can go in and grab just the Wallpapers…

Or go into the Theme folder double click on the the thumbnail to add it.

Here you can see I added all of them and now they will be available under the My Themes section for when you want to change them around.

This is a neat little trick that will let you customize Windows 7 with hidden themes already available.
