This sounds so good. JAILBREAKING...
I am very new to iPad world. I just bought my first iPad 4. After reading this forum I am keen to jailbreak my iPad but i have few question though if you could answer please?
After Jailbreak -
1. Will i be getting Apple ios updates and will i be able to install them?
2. Once I install the Apple ios update then will my iPad be unJailbreak?
You will still get "nagging notices" from Apple to upgrade your iOS. However, you don't have to upgrade - because if you do install the iOS updates, you WILL lose your jail break.
Oh, and do note that, with a jail broken iPad, you cannot install iOS updates with the over-the-air option (it won't work on a jail broken iPad). Any/all updates must be done via iTunes. Again, however, if you update, you will lose any jail break.

Putting your iPad back to stock is easily done by connecting the iPad to iTunes and clicking the "Restore" button (after backing up, of course, so you don't lose all your stock settings and data).

Thanks In advance.

Yes, Apple has stated that a jail broken iPad may lose the warranty. However, as you can easily restore the ipad to stock - it's really not something we worry about (see your question 3 for how easily an iPad can go back to stock).
Hope this helps.

I have downloaded evasi0n, I have downloaded the firmware ipsw file for my ipad mini wifi only (model A 1432), downloaded tiny umbrella. The blob I get is 6.1 (my current IOS is 6.0.2 <-- is this correct?). I have also downloaded pUTTY. I have backed up my ipad mini using iTunes.
My question:
In step 2., do I have to restore (or should it be install) IOS 6.1 via DFU mode? My ipad is not jailbroken. Is it possible to just used the iTunes upgrade option without going into DFU. Will the firmware be the same as my ipad was bought in Asia? (Model A 1432). If I use itunes (connected with usb cable) to upgrade the IOS, will I get the APTicket?
Reason for all these questions is that I have never done DFU and I'm really worried I may screw it up.
In step 3., after I upgrade IOS using cable attached to iTunes, do I still need to restore my backup? The last time I upgraded the IOS (from 6.0.1 to 6.0.2), it was on the air. I did not have to restore backup.
Thank you for your patience.:)
In your scenario, all you need to do is use iTunes to Update to 6.1 (then run evasi0n)
You don't need to use DFU or the "restore" option, nor do you need to use your backup (although you should still have a backup just in case).
And 6.1 blobs are all you should expect to have. If you use iTunes to update you will have fully valid APTickets.

I did my jailbreak just now. Yea!!! The funny part is that the evasi0n portion took only a few minutes. Whats the scary part was updating to to IOS 6.1. It took half an hour just for iTunes to download the upgrade. I was also having problems because my c: drive was full.
I have now installed ...
Iconbounce:p
No Update
Kill all resets?
Winterboard:o
Swipe Selection :thumbs:
Just for reference, No Update is no longer required for evasi0n based jailbreaks. They have included protection in the jailbreak to prevent the OTA update feature being used ;)
