How To: Jailbreak your Ipod Touch 1.1.1 to 1.1.2 (Windows)

In this Instructable, I will show you how to jailbreak your Ipod Touch and update to 1.1.2. I will walk you through, step by step, to open your Touch for 3rd party applications.

*Warning: You do this at you own risk, I will not take any responsibility for what happens to your Ipod Touch!*

While you jailbreak your Ipod, there is just a small risk to brick your Ipod. In the most cases you can just restore your Ipod, I will tell you how in the first step. And again: I will not take any responsibility, when your screw up your Ipod.

What you need:
- an Ipod Touch (firmware 1.1.1, settings - general - about => version)
- a stable Wi-Fi connection
- Itunes

Note: When you look at the screenshots, you can see I'm dutch. But I hope they are clear enough.

Step 1: Safety Procedures

Before we are going to jailbreak your Ipod, I will tell you what to do, if your Ipod is acting weird.

1. Don't panic!
2. Plug your Ipod in your computer.
3. Press the wake-button and home-button at the same time, until you see the apple logo appear.
4. When you see the logo, let the wake-button go, but still hold the home button.
5. After a few seconds you will see the 'connect to itunes'-image. Let go the home-button.
6. Open Itunes and it should recognize your Ipod.
7. Click on restore.

8. If this don't work and you see only a plain screen, there's a big change that he's bricked.

Let's begin!

[shawntherobot]

[jake579]

tell me if it works out 4 ya!

[jake579]

i know how 2 get around it. first u need 2 plug in ur ipod 2 ur computer. then bring up itunes if u have it(if not go to apple.com and download 4 free) and on the side where the toolbars r (the left side where it says music movies video ect.) i pic of ur ipod shuld pop up and should say ipod. Then click on the ipod and wait a moment. when it loads u shuld see a buton close 2 the middle of the screen that says restore. click restore, and wait for it. (this may take awhile) afterwards ur ipod shuld be back 2 normal like u just bought it. This will delete everything on the pod, but u will be able 2 get onto it and there will be no password.

Enter DFU mode: Plug iPod in, hold sleep & home until you get the disconnect sound, let go of sleep until it reconnects. Restore in iTunes.

[A.C.E.]

you hold the sleep button and home button down for a long time to restore with out itunes.
