These are instructions on how to jailbreak your iPod touch using iLiberty+ and Windows.
Before following these instructions you should have already restored your iPod touch to 1.1.4 using iTunes. You should have the iPod connected to your dock/computer and iTunes should have detected the iPod after restore at least one once!
Step One Download iLiberty+ 1.2 from here to your desktop.
Step Two Double click the downloaded file (iLibertySetup_1.2.0.65.exe) on your desktop to launch the install program.
Step Three Click the Next button to begin installation.
Step Four Select the location to install iLiberty+ in and click the Next button.
Step Five Enter a name for the iLiberty+ Start Menu Folder and click the Nextbutton.
Step Six Check the box if you would like to add a iLiberty+ icon to your desktop then click the Next button.
Step Seven Finally, click the Install button.
Step Eight Once installation is complete you will be given the option to launch iLiberty+. Check the box next to Launch iLiberty+ then click the Finish button.
Step Nine iLiberty+ will open onto the standard tab. Check the operations you would like to perform. If you are jailbreaking an iPod touch then you only have to have Jailbreak selected.
Step Ten Click to select the Payloads tab. From here you can select additional payloads to install while jailbreaking. We will leave this alone for now and go back to the Standard tab. Note***: A tutorial on how to download and install payloads will be posted in the near future.
Step Eleven Click the Go for it! button from the Standard Tab to begin.
Next I got a message that asked me to disconnect then reconnect my iPod touch and click the OK button.
Step Twelve You will then notice a status bar appear. Unfortunately, mine only displayed until around 13% when the iPod rebooted into recovery mode and then it disappeared. No worries though, the jailbreak procedure continued and finished successfully. I was not notified that it did by the software. Just watch your iPod until it comes to rest at the "Slide to unlock" screen.
THANKS***: A lot of thanks go out to AViegas, George Zhu, Dev Team, and whomever else contributed to this release!

I've been searching the web without luck for a while for my use case. I got a brand new iphone. It is still unopened. Do I still need to restore to 1.1.4? Do I need to have itunes on at all? Or do I just run iliberty+ after connecting iphone from box to PC? TIA
hey, I have an Ipod 16GB ipod touch, I was wondering if using this method is safe, cause I had a really bad experience with zip phone. please someone help me
Should I restore my ipod? iTunes said it had detected an iPod in recovery mode, like you had mentioned, but I'm not sure whether or not I should restore. My previous experience with ZiPhone (which sucked) was that when I restored the iPod, the jailbreaking software was erased as well. I'm not sure I should restore. Thanks for your help.
zza24 don't worry i fix the problem, it was my fault, i didn't disconnect the plug at the moment the message appear and ask me to do it.... :S also i saw some videos on Utube that show the same step that you show here and then i understood what was my problem
so thank anyway xD :D
zza24 i tried both method, the first one of this website and the your suggestion to Jason....but the result was the same, my screen is the same and nothing change.
My version is 1.1.4 and i've an 8gb iPTOUCH
thanks 4 Ur help man
Hey I have an 16gb Itouch and was wondering if using iliberty+ to jailbreak and add installer will erase my january upgrade that I bought with applications like mail, stocks, notes etc? Also will I be able to sync my itouch using itunes right after and get all of my dates entered into my itouch back on it or will I lose those?
iClarified, i tried this on my new restored 32gb ipod touch, but installer did not install. I then tried it using ziphone3.0, again installer didnt install. Any idea where i'm goin wrong???
pls help
