How to Upgrade to iOS 5 Today, Without Any Developer Account

It was only yesterday when the iOS 5 was announced, hackers MuscleNerd and Co have managed to jailbreak iOS 5 on the iPod touch fourth generation.


Mert Erdir has discovered how to upgrade to iOS 5 without developer accounts, using a simple backdoor.

Download and install iOS 5

• Download the iOS 5 IPSW file from the web (it's easy and readily available. Just Google it and torrent it down).
• Update your iPhone using iTunes. To do this, connect your iPhone to your computer, click on the Check for Update button with theOption (Mac) or Shift (PC) key pressed. Select the iOS 5 IPSW file from the place you downloaded it to.
• Wait until it upgrades. A new activation screen will appear.

Activate iOS 5

• Triple click the home button. This will activate the Voice Over.
• Triple click the home button and Emergency Call will appear.
• Click on Emergency Call and, while it's switching, swipe with your three fingers down.
• The Notification Center will appear!
• Click on the Weather widget. The Weather app will load.
• Click on the home button to exit to the iPhone's springboard.

That's it. Your phone is activated and fully operative.
