Limera1n 4.1 iP4

**CarboniP4** · 12-03-2010, 04:34 PM

Hi all, as you can see this is my first post in this forum but I have a question to go with it.
I have an iPhone 4 with 4.1 on it and was looking to jailbreak it.
I read about Limera1n in the threads below but I don't know how to go about jailbreaking. I've used blackra1n on my 3G about a year ago and worked. I'd appreciate if someone could guide me through the process and tell me which jailbreak to use. Thanks heaps, guys!

P.S. Mods, please move/delete if necessary, thanks!

Limera1n is probably the easiest to use. Just run it and follow what it says to do.

Alright, Thanks for the response! Limera1n works with the iPhone 4 right? And if I mess up, I can restore my iPhone 4 with my backup?

Yes it works on iPhone 4.

I jailbroke my iPhone and now cydia is giving me this "Error: Database
Malformed line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cydia.list (URL parse)

I'm getting worried, what should I do?

**Simon** · 12-03-2010, 05:48 PM

Did you refresh sources and do any updates that it gave you to do?

The first time I turned it on it went on reloading and was taking a while so I pushed home, afterwards it was giving me this error.

You are supposed to wait for it to finish then do any updates it gives you. First run can always take awhile as it has to download everything.

Oh...ok what should I do at this moment?

Try and let Cydia load so you can update the changes. If it hangs too long, you might have caused damage and will have to restore and jb again.

As soon as I boot cydia, it gives me the error so should I still keep it on?

EDIT: Or should I just go ahead and restore and re-JB?

**Simon** · 12-03-2010, 05:58 PM

Try rebooting then using cydia again

Tried it, same error.

**i.Annie** · 12-03-2010, 06:02 PM

When you get the error, can you just hit ok or cancel and let it reload? Or does it just crash or not load any further?

If you can't get past the error for Cydia to reload, restore and jb again is probably the best option.

It goes in this order: I boot up cydia, Error pops up, Gives me option to tap "Okay", I tap OK, it pops up 2 more times when cydia trys to either refresh data or download it. I tap OK when the error pops up again and then cydia does nothing and brigs me to the home page. No sources or anything in sections or manage.

Once I restore, can I use my backup (pre-JB) on it and then JB?

**Simon** · 12-03-2010, 06:04 PM

Can you go to changes and press refresh?

**i.Annie** · 12-03-2010, 06:06 PM

Ok but wait, you can still get on the changes page right? Did you try hitting the reload button on the top left corner?

Lol beat me to it x98car

**CarboniP4** · 12-03-2010, 06:06 PM

I just tried that but it gave me the same errors, "Error: Refreshing Data" and "Error: Database"

**Simon** · 12-03-2010, 06:08 PM

haha too slow

Ok, before you try a restore download tiny umbrella and press save SHSH to see what you can get: The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella

**i.Annie** · 12-03-2010, 06:09 PM

Hmm I guess restore then. As long as you have your back up PRE-jailbreak saved, you can restore to it just fine. Don't restore to the backup that iTunes will save at your phones current state, it will probably bring the problem back.

@x98car,

Been practicing your speed typing? Lol, I'm out of touch now.
