How to Jailbreak iOS 7.0.x with Evasi0n 7

The evad3rs have surprised the jailbreak community by releasing an all new version of evasi0n, the team’s official hacking tool for iPhone, iPad, iPod touch.

Capable of jailbreaking all iDevice models and all iOS firmwares, evasi0n7 is finally available for download on Mac OS X and Windows computers. Mac users will need OS X version 10.6 (Snow Leopard), or newer. PC users will need Windows XP (or later). No Linux version is available at the time of this writing. Windows users will further require iTunes (if they don’t have it installed). All users will need to use the USB cable supplied by Apple to connect the device to the computer.

How to Jailbreak iOS 7.0.x on iPhone / iPad / iPod touch

1. Connect your iDevice to your Mac or PC and launch iTunes. It’s preferred that you use the newest version of iTunes available.
2. Backup your device using iTunes (or iCloud).
3. Disable the passcode lock on your iDevice (Settings -> General ->Passcode Lock -> Turn Passcode Lock Off).
4. Download evasi0n7 from http://evasi0n.com/ and run the program on your Mac or Windows PC.
5. Make sure to close all other programs on your computer. In the evasi0n interface, hit the Jailbreak button. Wait for the process to complete and your device to reboot.

Congratulations! You should now be jailbroken.

A final note from the evad3rs: “If the process gets stuck somewhere, it's safe to restart the program, reboot the device (if necessary by holding down Power and Home until it shuts down), and rerun the process.” The team also says that OS X users may get an error saying that evasi0n can't be opened. If so, simply control-click (right-click) the program and choose Open.
