It seems that Apple has lost its touch in becoming the world’s leading digital security manufacturer after it failed, yet again, to protect its iPhones from the jailbreak industry. Even after launching iOS 8.1.2, it took only hours for a new jailbreak to surface on the web.
However, it is not Evad3rs that are running the show. Instead, iPhone jailbreak fans are relying on the new kid on the block, TaiG. The team of hackers from China has been very quick and efficient in providing the masses with a simple tool to jailbreak the iPhone. All that is needed is simply a Windows-operated PC with iTunes pre-installed.
So if you are an iPhone user running on the latest iOS 8.1.2 and wish to jailbreak your device, you can follow the simple steps listed below. Of course, make sure you have downloaded TaiG on your PC beforehand.
Pre-requisite
1. Create a backup of the iPhone
2. Ensure that Find My iPhone and TouchID is switched off
3. Put The iPhone in Airplane Mode
4. Ensure 80% remaining battery before proceeding
Flashing Instruction
1. Connect the iPhone to the PC
2. Run Taig as administrator
3. The software should detect your device automatically
4. Uncheck the second box and click on the large green button at the bottom right of the screen
5. The process should commence automatically and when done, the iPhone will reboot into the jailbroken iOS 8.1.2
