A team of iOS hackers called ‘evad3rs’ have recently released their JailBreaking tool – “Evasi0n”. This tool would allow you to untether JailBreak your iOS device on iOS 6.1 such as iPhone 5, iPod touch 5th generation, iPad mini etc on Mac OS X, Windows and Linux. However, some of the people while JailBreaking their iOS device have been experiencing an issue where the device is stuck on ‘patching kernel’ using evasi0n.
One of the team member @pod2g has tweeted that the issue could be resolved simply by doing a force reboot. To do a force reboot, you need to press home+power button of your iOS device until the device shows an Apple logo. This is the first version of evasi0n, so you might experience some of the issues either with Cydia or JailBreaking tool. Needless to say, despite efforts from Saurik, Cydia is experiencing an intense traffic which would be fixed soon.
Have you experienced any other issue while JailBreaking your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch using evasion? Let’s know in comment section below.
