Semi-tethered jailbreak released [UPDATED] - awestom - Oct 22, 2011
A semi-tethered jailbreak has been released, this means you can restart your iDevice on the "road", without the need for a computer.
There are some limitations though, these include;
- Can't use Safari
- Can't use Mail app
- Can't use jailbreak tweaks, apps, or cydia
- While in the semitether booted state, you should not add a jailbreak ios5 notification such as sbsettings to notifications during this state or your device will be stuck in a respring loop until you get home to “boot tethered”.
While in this state you can;
- Use Phone app
- Use Messages app
- Can use any other stock app (except the ones stated above)
- Can use app store web browsers
Instructions on how to do this are as follows;
Add this repo;
Code
http://thebigboss.org/semitetherOpen that repo, and install semi-tethered;
Reboot device;
Now you are in semi-tethered mode;
Now re-jailbreak with your computer.
Also, here is a video tutorial;

You can use skyfire in the app store. It's pretty good.
