Compatible IOS 6.1.3 Devices that can be jailbroken

For those who don’t know, the untethered jailbreak for the iOS 6.1.2, 6.1, 6.0.1 and 6.0 firmware that was made by evasi0n was patched by Apple in the latest iOS update, but the Limera1n exploit made from geohot can still be used for the purpose.

Before proceeding, please note the method only works on the devices mentioned above. Apart from that, you need to have the USB cable for your device along with you. This method won’t work on the latest iPhone, the iPod Touch 5G or even the iPhone 4S. It’s also a tethered jailbreak, so a connection of the device will be required with the computer where you would be using iBooty to boot the device tethered every time when it restarts.
