Dev team also have updated Redsn0w to version 0.9.15b3 this update doesn’t add support for iOS 6.0.1 firmware it’s only to fix bugs found on the latest version, but you can still point at the already supported iOS 6 firmware and successfully jailbreak iOS 6.0.1 on A4 devices only.

I can’t seem to get past the ‘please wait…’ screen. I’ve restored iOS 6.0.1 about 10 times and tried to jailbreak over and over again but it never loads past that. Anyone have any ideas?!
Thanks,
Sabs
Same here… just getting an error and says i got to reboot to normal mode and do a “slide to power of”. Then try redsnow again…
So. i managed to get jailbraking part to work. Restored the phone to fabric. But now theres a new problem. When im started the just boot part, and redsnow is done and the pineapplelogo shows up, its supposed to start from there? and not get the appleloga between? quz im getting the applelogo and its like frezes there… to get the phone working again i need to do a reboot. and then im back to the beginning again…
have tried 6 times now i think, but i dont manage to get it working properly
Use red snow and click extras> recovery fix. That will get rid of the recovery loop and freeze.
If the “jailbreak” part of the method is working but you get the frozen apple logo after you see the pineapple logo, then this is because you are using the wrong build. Almost all of the issues I am seeing here on this post are due to not using the correct build. Please see my comments below for 12/12/12.
how did u manage to work it? cause i got the same problem… PLEASE WAIT for hours… its not working! im on iphone 4, i selected manually the 6.O ipsw, click jailbreak, and after when its going to install on my phone, the PLEASE WAIT thing appears again and again and again!
I also have the same problem, I was stuck at the “please wait loop” for 15 minutes, then after random text appear at an incredible speed, Iphone reboot and I’m back at the apple logo. HAHA. I suck n doing this jailbreak thingy.
If it says Please Wait… Then you have downloaded the wrong ipsw.
If you tried iPhone3,2_6.0_10a403_Restor.ipsw and it says please wait. Try iPhone3,1_6.0_10a4_Restore.ipsw and it should work.
if i have ios 6.0.1 on my ipod then do i still download the ios 6.0 firmware as they r saying above (for jailbreaking ios 6.0.1) ?
anybbody know?
bcuz they r saying download ios 6.0 in the pic and etc (to jailbreak the ios 6.0.1?)
i had the same problem when i tried to jail break using redsnow… the solution is to use snowbreeze-v2.9.7
to jail break instead of red snow and its easy to jail break using snowbreeze than redsnow…. hope your problem is solved!!!
iphone 4 on ios 6.0.1 opened redsnow entered dfu mode selected 6.0 then jailbreak then select extras reboot get pineappl logo but no cydia, can anyone help!
Same here
get the pineapple, then no cydia. says everything works fine but when i do the “Just Boot” option, it says waiting on reboot and wont move on.
btw i dont see moving applications after jailbreak process, can anyone help please, i have jailbroken my own device on 6.0 but cant jailbreak my mates with 6.01…
thx alot
My iphone 3gs used to be jailbroken but I accidentally updated on itunes for 6.0.1 so it started all over. I tried a different jailbreak so everytime my phone turns all, all it shows on the screen is the connection cable and itunes (signaling to plug into itunes). This works but then on when it goes to the iphone it says error please reboot in normal mode.
I can’t do that because my iphone isn’t in normal mode. And I have t-mobile but don’t have the simcard yet.
when i try doing jailbreak…select ipsw..it says that ipsw is not supported by current version of redsnow…can any one please help me…
Get the same here, *not supported by this version of redsn0w…
if u have iOS 6.0.1 download the 6.0 ipsw, not the 6.0.1, its supposed to work that way

hey man first open redsnow(latest version) then select extras and tap “select ipsw” then select the ipsw that you download in this page and thenn click in ok
then just jailbreak and when the jailbreak is over your device will be on
but is no over you will not see cydia if you dont reboot your device
to reboot close redsnow then re-open it and click in extras and click in select ipsw
now when you select the ipsw just click in just boot and follow all directions in the screen and if the jailbreak is correct yo will see the pineapple
i have an ipod touch 4th with ios 6.0.1 jailbroken with this page lml
p.d: all users when you jailbreak your device you will not see cydia
so, follow the direction in this page but when its time to reboot your device REMEMBER to click in “select ipsw” then click in “just boot”
I have the pineapple on my screen but won’t do anything. Now what? How long should the boot take the first time?

You are not selecting the right build.

But like i said, when i select it, redsnow says that it is not supported…
I have iPad 3…with 3g …what build i need?…
Thx for your comments
Hi. I am noob to iphone stuff. Is it possible to jailbreak and then unlock an iphone that is not yet reactivated? My iphone was previously jailbroken and unlocked and I accidentally restored my iphone 3gs to ios 6. And now i’m stuck on the sim activation settings and can’t seem to get through it because i don’t have the sim. Please i really need your help. Thank you in advance!
Go to iTunes. Hold Alt/Option down on the keyboard and click Uodate. Select the desired iOS and then Open. Click update on the pop-up box and iTunes will verify and update ur device, jumping you past the activation screen.
wtf!!! none of your info works especially that video followed step by step and it says build error..
not impressed with the waiting on the reboot either ….
no untethered jailbreak for iphone 4 for ios 6 since months? I don’t think there will be any jailbreak anymore, it’s just going too long.
Ugh!
I get to the select IPSW but the selection doesn’t show. I can’t select ios 6 because that isn’t even an option. It just show things like my documents and pictures.
Go to your download folder or wherever you saved the restore file and just drag it to your desktop and choose it from there. DO NOT NEED itunes for this.
plz help I am on ios 6.0.1 on my ipodtouch 4g and I tried both ios 6 and ios 6.0.1 and neither show anything like it in the tutorial just 3 folders named dfu,urs,and local PLZ HELP ASAP!!!
Did the whole process, downloaded redsn0w 0.9.15b3, got the firmware (iphone3,3 6.0, used it for the jail break, got all the way through the process untill it was time to “Just BooT”! clicked on just boot, waited for the pinapple, and it froze and said “Missing Keys, plist data for this build!?? Whats up??
Same thing happened to me. I think it’s because we used the IPSW for 6.0 and not the one for 6.0.1.
It says the jail break is for IOS 6.0.1, I downloaded the correct IPSW file for an Iphone4 with Ios 6.0.1 but then redsnow says:
That IPSW is not supported by this version of redsn0w.
Why?!
Seriously! What the fuck am I supposed to do. I just updated to 6.0.1 and I can’t downgrade and the fucking jailbreak doesn’t work. Fucking bullshit
You need to use the 6.0 IPSW. Its essentially the same firmware, with just minor bugfixes, so it works to jailbreak iOS 6.0.1. I just did it last night on my CDMA Iphone4 on 6.0.1
Yeah I tried the 6.0.1 ipsw and that didn’t work then i see in support that someone says to use the 6.0 one – which one is it folks? you have it posted both ways and neither seems to work. I’ve tried both and neither work. “Missing plist on the 6.0″ one.
When Iphone 4s ios 6.0.1 is coming?we are waiting….plz help me z
sorry I mean Jailbrek for iphone 4s 6.0.1 jailbrek
when iphone 4s ios 6.0.1 jailbreak is Coming.plz help me plz
For anyone having issues with the “Missing Keys.plist data for this build:” error or if you are getting stuck at an image of nothing but a pineapple, then it is because you are using the incorrect IPSW build files for your iPhone 4 and you have to keep in mind that there are 4 different builds which are iPhone4,1 – iPhone3,1 – iPhone3,2 and iPhone3,3. The “iPhone3,1 – iPhone3,2 and iPhone3,3″ builds are still for the iPhone 4, so don’t let the build numbers fool you.
If you are receiving the “Missing Keys.plist data for this build:” error message or if you are getting stuck at an image of nothing but a pineapple, then this is because you are using the incorrect build for your phone. All you need to do is to download and install the correct build and then you will be good to go.
If this isn’t the fix for your problem, then I do not know what to tell you, looks like you’re screwed for now.
Um yeah that doesn’t work. Tried both the global build (which was recommended here by a couple people who said the normal at&t one didn’t work). Both the global and at&t one are both giving me the missing plist crap. Ideas?
Also, for those that are still confused, this IS the jailbreak for the iPhone 4s, GSM, Global and CDMA….however you WILL NOT and CANNOT use the “iOS 6.0.1″ build to jailbreak the iOS 6.0.1. You MUST use the iOS 6.0 build for the jailbreak, otherwise you are just wasting your time and not paying attention to detail
If that were true then why am i getting a missing plist when i try to use the 6.0 and then when i try to use the 6.0.1 it says not supported with this version of pineapplewhateverthisis? why even post links to the ipsw’s that don’t work????
All goes well until the part of downloading jailbreak because it will give the white letters and black out there please wait an amount of time and does nothing
You are using the wrong iPhone build. If you are getting stuck on the “Please wait….” that takes up the screen from top to bottom then this is because the script is timing out because it is looking for information that is not compatible with the build you have selected. I would suggest downloading ALL of the builds (there are only 4) and then attempt to install them one by one until you find the right build.
My iPhone’s model number tells me that it is a GMS, however the GMS build did not work. I had to use the “Global” build and that worked perfectly.
Get all the wat to the part were you just reboot and ther get missing keys plist stuff, but I am using the correct build. The entire process worked until then which would hace been step 9
Alright. So i have an AT&t Iphone 4 on 6.1. I downloaded the “Download iOS 6 iPhone 4 (AT&T)” and everything seemed okay until i got to the “please wait” screen with white letters, black background. It Would take 10 minutes for it to do anything then reboot with apple logo. Download the Global version instead of the AT&T ios version. Hoped this helped someone.
i have apple 4g and i jailbreak but my phone was restart & restart,what was the problem…. Waiting for your comments, thanks.
hey Courtney .. dude how are yoy
tell me one thing clear that above procedure of jailbreaking is rite for iphone 4 ios 6.0.1 and firmware 4.12.2
may i use this iPhone3,1_6.0.1_10A523_Restore.ipsw for jailbreak

No offense, but you need to grow up. Asking for girls ages online is a little bit perverted. Go and find a girl in real life.
Damn indians, gtfo the internet and go blow soemthing up.
not impressed with the waiting on the reboot either ….

Hi Mike,

Hello Israel,
I think they have accidentally put the iPhone 3 in the iPhone 4 section.
Have you got iPhone 4S? Just checking because that is 4,1 6.0 10A403
Letting us know thta we need to use a web-browser that will NOT convert the .ipsw file into .zip like Internet Explorer does would be a GOOD F&*%ING THING TO TELL US AT THE BEGINNING OF THE ****WORST MADE JAILBREAK TUTORIAL (as well as troubleshooting responses)***!!!!!!!!
the pineapple doesn’t apear in my ipod touch 4g! i did everything the video sad.
i did past all the step but there is no cydia icon after jailbreak. iphone 4.
I went through all of the steps, loaded redsnow, the frimware needed. Everything went fine. Unfortunately, cydia did not show up on my home screen. I checked the box next to cydia when I loaded redsnow. I rebooted once it installed. Im not sure what to do. I have repeated all of the steps over and over and it never shows up on my screen. HELP!!!
I bought used ipod touch, think is 4 gen (has facetime) reset & upgraded to ios 6.0.1 both accidentally, was jailbroken and didn’t know … I start to jailbreak, downloaded Redsn0w & the Ipsw, applied it and when I try to enter DFU mode (followed instructions & even tried different timings and whatever ), it won’t enter or recognize dfu mode. Even downloaded the app to enter DFU mode without pressing Ipod buttons ! HELP!

Hello all,
I have an Iphone 4 with iOS 6.0.1 and BB 4.12.02.
I have used RedSnow 0.9.15b3 and went to Extras, selected the following ipsw:
iPhone3,2_6.0_10A403_Restore 10-30-47.ipsw
I end stuck with my iphone sayin “please wait” in the black background. I’ve read here I should use another ipsw, so I downloaded all these ones:
iPhone3,1_6.0_10A403_Restore.ipsw
iPhone3,1_6.0.1_10A523_Restore.ipsw
iPhone3,2_6.0_10A403_Restore.ipsw
The problem is that it doesn’t work with any of them, RedSnow says sth like non-compatible with that ipsw…So that’s where I’m stuck now.
I use it through a Mac, so I cannot use snowbreeze.
Does anyone know if there’s any solution or maybe any step I might be taking for granted (i dont know, I followed the instructions several times…)
Thanks in advance
Why’re you using the iphone 3 ipsw? Use the iphone 4 since you have an iphone 4.
The 3 ipsw is the file for iphone 4 in the list
Can someone tell me how to jailbreak iphone 4 ios 6.0.1 wth the home button not working?Thanks in advance.
hi,
i am from india. i just bought a jailbroken iphone 3gs, bb 6.15.00; old bootroom; ios 4.1. i decided to upgrade to ios 6.0.1 using redsnow which was when the power went off. i didnt back up my phone in itunes.
now i am stuck in recovery mode; and when ever i connect to itunes it starts restoring but then error 21, 3194 or 1602 comes. also it shows a blank next to the iphone (regarding details).
when i try redsnow to load 6.0.1 it says error start normal rebooting. if i try to load 5.1.1 it says eroor: panic you are in loop.
i would like to have the latest firmware on iphone; please guide me through.
If you failed here and even after jailbreak you see No Service or No Sim try the alternate way of IMEI unlocking.
I have iPhone2,1_6.0.1_10A523
redsnow doesnt support this please someone tell me what to do ,I already extract this ios on my iphone and it doesnt work it says I have to activate it with sim I dont have supported sim please someone tell me what to do ,I am stuck :’(
borrow someone that has AT&T sim to activate just a second. your phone is not factory unlock probably. go to ebay to get your phone unlack under $10.
If I do this procedure, I will unlock my IPhone too?
Or to unlock Will I have to do another process?
Thanks
I have a serious prob! I put my device in recovery mod open redsnow , I do the steps like its said but when i have to finally press the jailbreak button little window opens and says “Your Iphone 4S is connected in the wrong mode . Put it in its normal operating mode ” Someone please help me I’m with Iphone 4S with ios 6.0.1

been waiting for 15 mins for it to Reboot..it still says waiting for reboot…wat do i do now
I jailbroke it and did the just boot but there is no cydia
Hey guys,
I successfully jailbroke my iPhone 4 6.0.1 (AT&T) today. I had some trouble at first so in case anyone else is having trouble here are a couple tips.
First, if you get the missing keys.plist error when you try and “Just Boot” then look on the right hand side of this page. There is a useful link there which will rid you of your troubles. The steps may seem meaningless but hey, whatever works, and this did for me.
Secondly if you try and jailbreak but your “matrix” screens gets the the Please Wait.. part and just goes on endlessly shut off your device, download the ispw that starts with “Iphone 3,1″ which should be the global version. This also worked for me. YES Iphone “3″.. Its just the way they titled it, no worries, we know you have an iPhone 4
Thanks man! Thats accurate.
