**Jailbreaking iOS 8.1 with Pangu**
As we can see, iTunes will immediately tell us that iOS 8.1.1 is available for download, but we don't need to do that because we just came from there and in a moment here we should be running iOS 8.1. And yes, this is my iPhone five - I'm still amazed that this method is still working. I mean, Apple usually closes the signing period very soon, but anyway.
In general, about as you guys can see, I am on iOS 8.1, a jailbreakable firmware. It's great that we get a second chance and we should take advantage of it because this won't be around forever. Let's go ahead and jailbreak the device on iOS 8.1 using the latest version of pangu.
So, this is an incredibly simple process. To start, open it up now in some cases on a Mac computer, it won't let you open it, so you want to write click it and select open or if you're on the Windows computer, right click it and select run as administrator. All right, so immediately register your device. Make sure it is plugged in and just click Start jailbreak. This will pretty much warn you also put your device in airplane mode and if you have an iCloud account signed in make sure you're signed out of it.
If you have any Touch ID or passcode enabled, make sure you sign out of that as well. This pretty much just tells you that the less stuff you have on your device, the more successful the jailbreak could be. Anyway, already did all that and it begins the Jailbreak on its own so this takes about 5 to 10 minutes don't touch your device don't use anything on it just set it aside during this process.
Now, a lot of people ask me does Jailbreaking in your device make it slower? In and of itself, a jailbreak will never make your device slower unless it's really old and unless it has a ton of stuff on it. I'm talking about gigs and gigs of data and if you install a lot of tweaks you know you could see a performance hit as well. But in general, jailbreaking is a great way to free up your device and add some functionality extra functionality and customization to it. Generally, it's a very positive reaction and just the amazing things you can do with it make it worth it.
If you guys want to check out more things you can do with it at the end of this video just click on one of the tweak videos and you'll see more awesome tweaks and things you can do on the iOS 8 jailbreak. All right, so as soon as the jailbreak completes your device will restart it should only restart about once.
And okay, okay, and you will have Cydia in the blue pangu icon installed so go ahead and open up Cydia and it'll take about 5 minutes to refresh all the sources set up Cydia. You know after that's done I'll be right back.
**Troubleshooting Tips**
Well now my device is jailbroken with a working Cydia, so if you're wondering what to do after you jailbreak, I have plenty of videos to share with you guys. Lots of tweaks, you know, adding functionality and customization is primarily the number one thing. Anyway, I'm so glad that this still exists that you can can downgrade from 8.1.1 it's great you know take advantage of that right now.
If you do receive a new device make sure to downgrade it as fast as possible because this won't be around forever and just a couple troubleshooting tips. So if you guys are experiencing any sort of trouble first off, you need to read the article down below because it will explain just about everything to you.
And second off, first thing you want to do is restart your computer sometimes I don't even know why but just a restart could solve a lot of problems. You may be having with iTunes also try it on another computer or sometimes fix your host's file because sometimes that could be damaged from any previous jailbreaking experience and just try it on a different computer that also helps.
You know, sometimes you just switch it up like for me and it works. Also, if you are experiencing any sort of ipsw Errors make sure your model number matches up with the one of the ipsw firmware that you did download. I know such a simple little thing could prevent a lot of people from downgrading and lastly make sure that iOS 8.1 is still being signed.
**Conclusion**
So, to conclude, if you guys want to jailbreak your iOS device using pangu, just follow the steps above and don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. And don't forget to check out my other videos on how to use Cydia and add some awesome tweaks to your device. Have a great day!
