Jailbreaking the iPad

[Boonzeet]

Right so, the iPad is getting launched on Friday, I think. First thing I did with mine was jailbreak it, so I thought I'd give anyone help to jailbreaking it.

The Tool

Spirit, is currently the best and easiest method for jailbreaking the iPad. It's completely free, untethered, and I guess if you want works for the iPhone 3GS and iPod Touch 3.1.3.

Top Jailbreak Apps (That work on iPad)

Cydia fully works on the iPad and looks pretty good too. But here's a list of apps that do work, and work nicely.


Backgrounder - Backgrounder still works fine on the iPad, but sometimes quits apps unexpectedly. Lets you multitask.
SBSettings - Creates a dialogue that lets you turn things on and off - like 3G, WiFi, Brightness, etc by swiping along the statusbar.
Installous - Not that I condone this app, but it does work fine on the iPad. You'll have to add something to Cydia, Google to find out.


Winterboard is pretty pointless at the moment, iFile appears to work fine.

Post if you know any other good jailbreak apps that work on the iPad.

Hope this helps anyone.

jailbreaking with blackrain was pretty quick and simple as well.. haven't done the spirit jailbreak though, *** upgrading to 3.1.3 ;)

Hmm, if you have an iPhone 3G you can use Sn0wbreeze, Pwnage Tool, Redsn0w to jailbreak 3.1.3

since all 3.1.3 was was pretty much just a version number change.

Yeah the thing that really impresses me about spirit is - it's quicker than Blackra1n, and it's the only jailbreak where I've not had to tether-boot my iPhone 3GS.

AND they didn't waste the jailbreak/exploit on just this update, since it is different to the one the devteam and geohot are working on.
