\"\"<\/a>Yes Absinthe is out, however as normal, there are a few bugs that need to be dealt with so dont jump on it yet. However, the reports I have been reading seem to be fixable, so I would give it a week and it should be solid as a rock by then. Right now this is only for the Mac, so windows users, you will have to wait a bit longer. No word as to when that will be out, but I guess a few weeks.<\/p>\n

The first major issue is that\u00a0the Absinthe webclip\u00a0“Error establishing a database connection”. The iPhone Dev-Team blog suggested users to\u00a0go to Settings,\u00a0turn on VPN and wait instead.<\/p>\n

“Toggle VPN only\u00a0after\u00a0Absinthe says it’s done, or it will not work,” the blog added. “VPN\u00a0should\u00a0error and then reboot soon. If it does not, rerun Absinthe!”<\/p>\n

The iPhone Dev-Team also said the OS X version of the CLI\u00a0(command-line interface) is “primarily to help us debug specific issues, but tinkerers might like to play around with some of its advanced options!”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the hacker community also offered further help. The French hacker pod2g tweeted,<\/p>\n

@P0sixninja\u00a0said, “If you’re having issues, we’re serving up support in #greenpois0n on\u00a0irc.chronic-dev.org<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

Following is the\u00a0step-by-step guide\u00a0for\u00a0jailbreaking iPhone 4S and iPad 2\u00a0with\u00a0Absinthe.\u00a0It’s better to back up your iDevices before starting jailbreak.<\/p>\n
