Step 1: Download evasi0n for Mac via our downloads page, and extract the package.
Step 2: Double click the evasi0n app to run it.
Step 3: If your device has a passcode set, unlock your device and go to Settings > General > Passcode Lock > and select Turn Passcode Off.
Step 4: Plug in your iDevice to your computer. This can be any device running iOS 6.x, except for Apple TV devices.
Step 6: Click Jailbreak, and the jailbreak process will begin.
- Setting up fstab and AFC2
- Setting up Cydia
- Setting up Cydia packages
- Clearing SpringBoard Cache
- Rebooting
- Initializing offsets
- Finding offsets
- Patching kernel
- Cleaning up!
- Done! Continuing boot
The next step is to unlock your device, swipe over to the second page of your Home screen (or further if you have lots of apps), and open Cydia. On the first load Cydia will have to initialize, so this will take a minute or two. You’ll then be taken back to the Lock screen one final time. Unlock again, open up Cydia, and choose your user type.
Congratulations, your iOS 6 device is now jailbroken! Please read the notes below for more information.
Notes: An Apple TV 2 jailbreak will probably arrive shortly via an update to FireCore’s Seas0nPass jailbreak tool. The Apple TV 3, on the other hand, is not yet susceptible to jailbreak.
If you had a passcode set on your device, you removed it in step 3. Remember to reestablish a passcode lock on your device after the jailbreak is complete.
