Open the Cydia app on your tethered jailbroken device**
Search for “Corona”
Hit the “Install” button (as shown in the screen grab below)
This package will allow your 5.0.1 device to install pod2g’s untethered exploits and reboot without requiring an external tool like redsn0w or sn0wbreeze, and without having to restore your device (so you get to keep all your apps, contacts, etc).
**Note: if you do not currently have access to the Cydia store on your 5.0.1 device, you can use the redsn0w 0.9.10 tool developed by the iPhone Dev team. It is exactly the same set of files as our Cydia package, but bundled with redsn0w for new jailbreak users and/or those who are not already running a tethered jailbreak:
Important Note: iPhone users, if you rely on unlock you MUST stay away from iOS 5.0.1 update, it will break your unlock as it will upgrade your iPhone baseband to one that can’t be unlocked. Dev-team will release Redsn0w 0.9.9 to let unlockers able to upgrade to iOS 5 with preserving the unlockable basebands.
