Since we already know that iOS 9 – 9.0.2 untethered jailbreak is available in the market as Version 1.0.1 of Pangu. But every new jailbreak tool undoubtedly have some problems. The same case with this new Pangu version for iOS 9 – iOS 9.0.2 as some users reporting that they are facing a new issue of Boot Loop Of Death (a.k.a BLoD) when booting their iOS devices after iOS 9 – 9.0.2 jailbreak with Pangu. So here is a fix for this boot loop issue. Just read and try yourself if you are the effected one.
What is Boot Loop Of Death?
The Boot Loop of Death (which I will call “BLoD” in the context of this post) is notlike the boot failure I described above. The boot failure above is perfectly normal, and the device will eventually successfully boot after a few tries, at most.
The BLoD is a peculiar thing. Actually, I — nor anyone else — really understands what the BLoD even is. Because it can get devices stuck in the boot process for literally hours, it appears to continue on forever.
iOS 9 – 9.0.2 Jailbreak: Boot Loop Of Death Quick Fix
- First of all make a full unencrypted backup of your device data via iTunes
- Put your iOS device into DFU mode by following steps:
- First connect the iPhone with a PC.
- Now switch off iPhone by holding Power button and slide to power off
- Hold the power button for 3 seconds
- Press and hold the Home and Power (sleep/wake) buttons for sometime (10 seconds)
- Release the Power button but keep the Home button pressed for 15 seconds
- It will enter your iPhone in DFU mode. The screen remains black.
- Restore your iPhone to iOS 9.0.2 by doing this:
- Get iOS 9.0.2 firmware
- Open iTunes, and hold-down Option key (on Mac) left SHIFT key (on Windows), and click “Restore iPhone…” button.
- After restoring, setup your device as new device
- Turn-off Airplan mode and connect your device with internet over Wi-Fi
- Now launch Cydia, search for Cydia Substrate and install the update and device will respring
- After resping just hold-down the Power button and then swipe to turn-off the device
- Switch on your device back
- Make hard reboot by press & hold the Home button along with Sleep/Wake button at the same time for couple of seconds
That’s all; normally a complete device restore always fix the jailbreaking issues. Another important thing to note here is that if you have got the OTA update of iOS 9.0.2 then you are most likely to face the issues, so just download the latest IPSW and then try to jailbreak again.
