These are instructions on how to jailbreak your iPhone 6 Plus, 6, 5s, 5c, 5, 4s on iOS 8.1.3 - 8.4 using TaiG for Mac OS X...
If you aren't already at iOS 8.4 we suggest upgrading to the latest firmware using iTunes. You can find download links for iOS 8.4 here. We've also posted instructions on how to update the firmware of your iPhone. Please note that you must update using iTunes rather than Software Update. If you used Software Update you should do a backup then restore to iOS 8.4 using iTunes.
Drag and drop the TaiG application icon onto the Applications folder shortcut.
Step Two Tap Settings from your Springboard then select Touch ID & Passcode. Turn Passcode Off if it is enabled.
Step Three Press the Settings button at the top left to return to the Settings menu. Choose iCloud from the Settings menu then select Find My iPhone from the iCloud menu. Ensure the Find My iPhone switch is the Off position.
Step Four Connect your iPhone to the computer via a USB cable, launch iTunes, and perform a manual backup. It is very important that you remember to backup your device before continuing as you could lose your data if the jailbreak process does not complete successfully.
Step Five Right click or hold down control and click the TaiG jailbreak icon from the Applications folder on your Mac then click Open to launch the application.
Step Six You will notice the device is detected by the software. Uncheck the 3K assistant checkbox then click the large Start jailbreak button at the bottom of the window to begin your jailbreak.
Step Seven The TaiG app will now begin the jailbreak process.
Step Eight Once the jailbreak has completed successfully, you will be shown a green smilie face, your iPhone will reboot and a Cydia app will appear on your Springboard. Congratulations, you're now jailbroken!
*A big thanks to all those who contributed to this jailbreak.
