How to Jailbreak Your iPad 1 Using RedSn0w (Windows) [5.0b1]

These are instructions on how to jailbreak your iPad 1 on the 5.0b1 firmware using RedSn0w for Windows. Since iOS 5.0 has not yet been released these are instructions for developers only. This procedure will not hacktivate so you must have your UDID registered with a developer, and it is tethered.

Step One
Create a folder on your desktop called Pwnage

Download RedSn0w from here and place it in the Pwnage folder. Likewise, download the latest 5.0 firmware from iOS Dev Center and place it in the same folder.

5.0b1 (iPad 1): iPad1,1_5.0_9A5220p_Restore

Extract the RedSn0w zip file into the same folder.


Step Two
Connect your iPad to the computer and launch iTunes.

Navigate to the Pwnage folder on your desktop and select the 5.0 firmware ipsw. Click the Choose button to continue.


Step Three
Once iTunes has finished updating your iPad to the desired firmware open the Pwnage folder on your desktop and launch the redsn0w application from the redsn0w folder we extracted earlier.

Step Four
Once RedSn0w opens click the Browse button


Step Five
Select the 5.0 firmware ipsw we placed in the Pwnage folder on our desktop then click Open.

From this window you can select the jailbreak options you would like. Make sure Cydia is selected and click the Next button to continue.


Step Nine

Step Ten
RedSn0w will now guide you through the steps to get into DFU mode.


Hold down both the Home button and the Power button for 10 seconds.


Release the Power button and continue holding the Home button until RedSn0w detects the device.


Step Eleven
Your iPad will now reboot


Step Twelve
RedSn0w will then begin uploading the new RAM Disk and Kernel.


Step Thirteen
Once this is complete you will be notified that RedSn0w is done. Click the Finish button. When your iPad finishes rebooting (5 minutes or so) it will be jailbroken with Cydia on the SpringBoard.



BOOT TETHERED:
Since this is a tethered jailbreak you must use Redsn0w to help you boot back into your jailbroken device if its powered off for any reason. Simply connect your iPad to the computer, launch RedSn0w, select Just boot tethered right now from the options window and click Next to have RedSn0w boot your device.



*As usual a big thanks to the iPhone Dev-Team and Geohot for their hard work and contribution to the iPhone community.
