Hey guys, sorry for not keeping you up to date on some of the new stuff that came out this week… I have been extremely busy at work and home as well. Anyways, here is what’s new that might be good for all you Apple TV Users out there.

Chronic Dev Team has updated GreenPois0n to RC6.1 which incorporates fix by Comex for iBooks DRM error after jailbreaking iPhone, iPad or iPod touch on iOS 4.2.1 it with GreenPois0n RC5/6

On Friday the 18th, The Chronic Dev-Team has released this minor update to Greenpois0n that brings a fix for iBooks and the Apple TV 2G Wi-Fi bug to public so it’s available for download.

Hey guys, as promised here is a detailed GreenPois0n RC5 iOS 4.2.1 Untethered Jailbreak Tutorial on how to Jailbreak iOS 4.1 iPhone 4, 3GS, iPod Touch 3G and 4G and of course the iPad with this tool.

First thing you need to do is Update your iPhone and / or iPod Touch to iOS 4.2.1. Remember: Do not update to iOS 4.2.1 if you need the unlock. Ultrasn0w does not support that baseband yet. The only exception is the iPhone 4. You can update to iOS 4.2.1 without upgrading your baseband by following this tutorial.

Hey Guys, I have some good and bad news for all users who are waiting on Untethered Jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 from Comex.

An iPhone Italia Italian site contacted Comex of Spirit and JailbreakMe fame to ask him about whether or not he is going to release his untethered jailbreak tool for iOS 4.2.1.

Comex’s reply was swift and simple, just like Steve Jobs normally does in his emails back to users. The news was quite shocking for those who are eagerly waiting for the Comex’s release to untethered jailbreak iOS 4.2.1.

He is going to wait for Apple to release the next firmware update to public before releasing his tool. Read more…

iPhone developer Joshua Hill of the Chronic Dev Team has publicly confirmed that he is going to release an updated version of GreenPois0n with support for iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak as soon as he is done adding sandbox patches.

For those of you who don’t know, GreenPois0n is based on Geohot’s Limera1n bootrom exploit which has already pwned all current iOS devices for life. Read more…

Comex has tweeted something very interesting, It looks like the untethered jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 might be as simple as installing a package from Cydia over your existing Redsn0w tethered jailbreak – Yes, you don’t need to restore or re-jailbreak your device.

Comex: it’s probably going to be a Cydia package. if I can get it to work.

When someone asked Comex “what do you mean by that”, Comex replied: Read more…

Since Comex’s untethered jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 has been delayed, MuscleNerd of iPhone Dev-Team has announced that they are going to release their “backup plan” for untethered iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak over the Christmas weekend.

However before they do a general release, they are looking for testers to try out this latest version of Redsn0w. The requirements for testing Redsn0w for iOS 4.2.1 untethered jailbreak are as follows.

Over the Christmas weekend we’ll be releasing a version of redsn0w that implements the ‘backup plan’ to the 4.2.1 untethered jailbreak. We’re seeking your help to test this redsn0w and find any bugs before we do a general release!

Hey guys, I have some bad news for all of you (and Me), Initially it was expected for the untethered iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak to be released somewhere around the Christmas Eve. But if this latest tweet by Comex is anything to go by, we may not see an untethered jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 by this Christmas.

Comex has tweeted saying that he may not be able to complete his untethering of the current jailbreak by Christmas.

I think I’m going to miss my Christmas deadline…

On Tuesday the iPhone Dev-Team announced that their ‘backup plan’ untethered jailbreak is nearly ready and will not require a restore of your device. Read more…

My previous post about great news in regards to the new Untethered Jailbreak solution which was shared with us by MuscleNerd from the iPhone Dev Team.

Comex the creator of Spirit and JailbreakMe has also confirmed that a more efficient userland-based untethered jailbreak method for iOS 4.2.1 will be released before Christmas 2010.

This confirmation in fact came before MuscleNerd got a backup method to make jailbreak untethered on iOS 4.2.1 which I just wrote about in my previous post. Read more…

Great News Everyone!!! The long wait for the Untethered iOS 4.2.1 Jailbreak is on its way and it will be here before Christmas. As you all know, up to this point the only iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak that was available is the Tethered Jailbreak which is pretty inconvenient if you ask me.

MuscleNerd of the iPhone Dev Team has confirmed that he has got untethered jailbreak working on the latest iOS 4.2.1 firmware. He further explains that this a “backup” plan to Comex’s upcoming userland method and that it is generalizable.

As expected and promised, the iPhone Dev-Team has released a new version of RedSn0w 0.9.6b4 to jailbreak iOS 4.2.1.

As I told you guys before, this Resn0w 0.9.6b4  jailbreak is currently tethered for most devices except for the iPhone3G, older iPhone3GS, and non-MC iPod touch 2G. If you don’t know what that means then read my little explanation at the end of this post.

Comex is working on a way to untether the jailbreak for newer devices but it will require you to have your 4.1 SHSH blobs in order to use it. I have been telling all of you guys about saving your SHSH Blobs for weeks now… Unless you have your SHSH blobs saved you will not be able to have the Untethered Jailbreak.

Both Cydia (within redsn0w 0.9.6b4) and MobileSubstrate (install via Cydia) are now 4.2.1 compatible. Read more…
