How to Jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 Semi Untethered - iPhone, iPod, iPad with RedsnOw 0.9.9b9b :

Step 1: Connect your iDevice with your PC via USB, and open iTunes then Restore to iOS 5.0.1 (If you are already running iOS 5.0.1, bypass this step)

Step 2: Start Redsn0w 0.9.9 b9b, and press on "Jailbreak" button 

Step 3: Now select “Install Cydia” and click “Next”.

Step 4: Now make sure your device is both OFF and PLUGGED IN to the computer before you click “Next”.

At this stage you will be presented with a screen where you will be guided on how to enter DFU mode. Quickly hold “Power” button and then while holding the “Power” button, you will now have to hold “Home” button too. Now after few seconds release “Power” button but keep holding “Home” button until installation begins.

Strep 5: Wait until you get iOS 5.0.1  jailbroken in few minutes. Congratulations.

Step 6: Once current Redsn0w jailbreak is still tethered jailbreak, you will be required to connect your iOS device with your computer and run Redsn0w again then choose "Extras" > "Just Boot" and follow instructions (This will help you to fix white Cydia icon problem). You will be required to make this step every time you reboot your device (This will prevent you from stuck-ing on Apple logo)
