6.Once Done! Hit the OK button. (Custom firmware can be found on desktop)

7.Now follow the Sn0wbreeze instructions to put your iDevice into a Pwned State. Sn0wBreeze instructions are important to follow because this will put your iDevice into Pwned DFU state;

..Your device should now be in DFU mode Sn0wBreeze will prompt you once you’re into Pwned DFU state…

…iTunes will start restoring iOS 5 on your iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch. Once done, your Device is now jailbroken tethered for all Devices apart from iphone 3gs thats untethered.

What’s the difference Between a Tethered and a Untethered you may ask

Well Untethered means you can reboot your iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad without having to connect it to your computer. Tethered means in order to reboot, you must connect it to your computer and run the program again.
