Getting Stuck at 45%
If you’re getting the following error: “Error at 45% – Error occurred in preparing the environment, error code (0A)” while trying to jailbreak your device then it is probably because you take encrypted backups of your device using iTunes.
To avoid the error, disable Encrypted iPhone/iPad/iPod touch Backup in iTunes via the Summary tab by unchecking the check box, and take an unencrypted backup of your device. Try to jailbreak your device using Pangu Jailbreak again to see if you can successfully jailbreak it. This solution has resolved the issue for some user. Thanks si709 for the tip!
Problems with OTA Updates
If you’re getting some other problem, and you had upgraded to iOS 9 – iOS 9.0.2 via OTA then restore your device by installing iOS 9.0.2, and try again. OTA updates are known to cause issues with jailbreak tools like Pangu jailbreak.
Can’t find Settings for Jailbreak Tweaks
PreferenceLoader hasn’t been updated to support iOS 9, so you won’t see the Settings for your jailbreak apps and tweaks. Preference Loader is a jailbreak utility that lets any apps or tweaks to have their own section in the Settings app. We expect it to be updated shortly. We’ll let you know as soon as the PreferenceLoader for iOS 9 is released.
