Skip this guide and follow our step-by-step tutorial on how to jailbreak iOS 6.1.2 untethered using Evasi0n. If you’re on iOS 6.1.3 and fall within the criteria of having an A4 or older device, then carry on with this tutorial using Sn0wbreeze for a tethered jailbreak.
Important info: As mentioned at the beginning of this post, only A4 and older devices are supported, which means if you have an iPhone 5 / 4S or the latest fifth-gen iPod touch and are running iOS 6.1.3, then you’re way out of luck. Since this is a tethered jailbreak, you will need to plug your device to your PC and boot tethered with iBooty every time your device reboots.
All set? Let’s begin!
