[iplaygames44]

*Note that this works only on the iPhone 4S*

Step 1: Go to this link, ***Moderator Edit: Delted Outside Link***
Step 2: Download absinthe (any version works) and wait for it to finish downloading which is a quick download
Step 3: Open the file when it is finished downloading and extract all files
Step 4: Perform a backup and sync again to regain apps and music
Step 5: Open absinthe from the previous file and a box will come up
Step 6: Plug in your iPhone 4S (which should be running iOS 5.0.1) and the box which says jailbreak will become active and the rest is done by the program
Step 7: Once the iPhone reboots, scroll to find the absinthe icon, tap it and it will reboot again and cydia should be there
*Note that if the jailbreak doesn't work, restore and repeat the process from step 5 and do the steps*
