View source for Semi-tethered jailbreak

A '''semi-tethered''' jailbreak is one where the device is able to start up on its own, but it will no longer have a patched kernel, and therefore will not be able to run modified code. It will, however, still be usable for normal functions, just like stock iOS, unlike a [[tethered jailbreak]], which would not boot at all. To start with a patched kernel, the user must start the device with the help of the jailbreak tool.

Many of the jailbreaks that use the [[limera1n Exploit]] on the [[iPhone 4]] on iOS 7, such as [[Geeksn0w]], included a semi-tethered option. The [[checkra1n]] jailbreak only uses a semi-tethered approach.
