February 4, 2013 at 21:05Evasi0n: jailbreak released for all devices running iOS 6.x
The Evad3rs hacker team has just released an iOS 6.x untethered jailbreak utility for all iOS devices except Apple TV 3G. This is the first jailbreak available to users with devices running A6 (iPhone 5) and A6X (iPad 4) processors. Also, for the first time, jailbreak is available for the iPad Mini, which originally comes with firmware version 6.0. Previously, jailbreak was available for users of iPad 3 (A5X processor) running iOS 5.
Evasi0n for OS X, Windows and Linux is available for download on the Evasi0n website .
Evasi0n 1.1 fixes the Weather bug. But only if you do not have AppSync installed. Those who have already jailbroken using Evasi0n 1.0 only need to upgrade evasi0n 6.0-6.1 Untether and UIKit Tools packages in Cydia.

Before At the beginning of the jailbreak procedure, it is recommended to backup data in iTunes or iCloud. If you backup in iCloud, go to Settings - iCloud - Storage and copies - Storage - your device and select the data you want to back up. Unnecessary is better to turn off so that it does not take up extra space in the cloud.
Evad3rs also recommend doing a restore to iOS 6.1 firmware via iTunes. If you switched to iOS 6.1 by updating the firmware via the “Software Update” directly on the device, it is highly recommended that you update the firmware again, but through iTunes. This will help to avoid problems during the jailbreak process.
Hackers noted on their twitter that the number of active visitors to Evasi0n.com at the time of release reached 270,000. It seems that the jailbreak of iOS 6.x was waiting even more than the release of the firmware itself.
