Just did my Ipad 2. As CLaw mentioned. Took about 5 minutes total. On the last step when it says “press the  jailbreak icon” you need to tab the app created on the device called Absinthe .

Took about 5 mins on my 32gb 4s running ios 5.1. Very easy to use, just plug the phone into your pc, open the app, hit the jailbreak, wait 4 minutes then open the absinthe app on the iphone to complete the final step. I missed sbsettings

CAMERAROLL FIX, this is what I did, downloading swapcameraroll from cydiamay not be necessary.I downloaded the cydia app “swapcameraroll” from modmyi source, it will install an icon on your homescreen, I clicked on it several times but it did not fix the issue right away. I then did a hard reset, Held the power button and home button until the phone restarted, DO NOT SLIDE TO POWER OFF, after that my phone started back up and my pictures and videos were all back in my cameraroll.
Good luck

In my opionion, for my needs, yes it worth it to jailbreak because I can now do things with my phone that apple doesn’t allow or want you to do for their own reasons some of which we’ll never know the answer to. Jailbreaking allows me to access certain features of the phone with a single click rather then several. I can modify how the phone acts and looks, almost everything in the phone is customizable after a jailbreak. If you google “benefits of a jailbreak” and “cydia apps” etc you’ll get alot of info.

I jailbroke just fine everything else seems to be working except some songs from my library. I lost the ability to play a whole playlist. Anybody have the same problem? Perhaps shed some light?

Worked but deleted everything from my iPhone. Don’t know how to get it back, it’s in iCloud. Not sure what to do…

Sign into iCloud on your iPhone. Or restore in iTunes, then choose iCloud as your option to restore from.
