Untethered iOS 4.2.1 Jailbreak Is Coming Before Christmas (CONFIRMED!!!)

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.

Ultrasn0w is working for iOS 4.2.1 iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS

A lot of things happened while I was out of the state celebrating Thanksgiving with my family. One of the very important updates / news is for all UNLOCKERS out there.

Yesterday MuscleNerd has announced that UltraSn0w is now fully working on iOS 4.2.1. The iPhone Dev-Team has made good progress on the iOS 4.2.1 unlock and it should be available by Sunday for the iPhone 3G and 3GS.

NOTE: The iPhone 4 unlock will require a bit more time, according to MuscleNerd. Read more…

New Version of Redsn0w 0.9.6b3 for iOS 4.2.1 Jailbreak is OUT, Installs Custom Bundles BUT NOT Recommended for average user!!!

Redsn0w 0.9.6b3 for iOS 4.2.1 Jailbreak Now Available for Download

The iPhone Dev-Team has released a new version of redsn0w that can jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 and install custom bundles independent of Cydia.

Please note that this version of Redsn0w is meant for developers only and does not install the new version of Cydia. This version of Redsn0w is also tethered for newer devices and that means whenever your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch is dead or turned off it would have to be re-jailbroken again via Redsn0w.

If you’re on the road and your iPhone has to be restarted you will have to re-jailbreak it again and again EVERY TIME you shut your iDevice OFF or if your Battery Dies.

PLEASE CONSIDER THIS AN ADVANCED TOPIC!! It’s not meant for the masses because it involves rather nerdy things like command lines and tar files.  But for those who know how to use this new redsn0w feature, have fun! Read more…

First Look at Updated Cydia for iOS 4.2 Jailbreak

In the beginning of this week on November 2nd I have written an article about the new iOS 4.2 Jailbreak delay due to Cydia not being ready and / or compatible with the new Operating System / Firmware iOS 4.2.

The main issue was the fact that Cydia is not compatible with the new iOS 4.2 Applications, .deb packages and basically just doesn’t work with the new iOS 4.2 system, period…

So after trying the new iOS 4.2 GM firmware and using the new Redsn0w 0.9.6b2 I was able to jailbreak my iPhone but found our pretty quick that Cydia and a lot of Jailbreaking Apps / .deb packages were completely broken.

Our good friend’s iPhone Dev Team member MuscleNerd tweet today is giving us a little bit of a hope because he said; both chpwn and saurik are burning the midnight oil to get it working as soon as possible.

Here is a screenshot of the new updated Cydia and looking at this screen it definitely looks like it is in fact being updated. The GUI looks totally different. Read more…

Jailbreak iOS 4.2 GM on iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G, iPad and iPod touch with Redsn0w 0.9.6b2

Redsn0w 0.9.6b2 Jailbreak Tool - Jailbreak iOS 4.2 GM on iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G and iPod touch with Redsn0w 0.9.6b2

The iPhone Dev-Team has confirmed that RedSn0w 0.9.6b2 can jailbreak iOS 4.2 GM Seed; however, they warn it should only be attempted by advanced users.

This tutorial will show you everything you need to do, step by step how to Jailbreak  iOS 4.2 on iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, iPad (on iOS 3.2.2) and iPod touch 4G / 3G / 2G using the newly released RedSn0w 0.9.6b2 jailbreak tool for Windows or Mac

Today Apple released to developers the GM seed for 4.2. Tinkerers will find that yesterday’s redsn0w jailbreaks today’s 4.2 GM seed, simply by pointing redsn0w at the 4.1 IPSW (rather than the 4.2 one).

Right now it mostly only makes sense for JB app developers to do that because many apps (including Cydia itself) need to be Read more…

Redsn0w 0.9.6b2 Jailbreak Tool is now available for Windows

The iPhone Dev Team has just released an updated version 0.9.6b2 of Redsn0w which is based on Geohot’s limera1n exploit and it can jailbreak iOS 4.1 on iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, iPad (on iOS 3.2.2) and iPod touch 4G / 3G / 2G (Non MC Model only).

In addition, this new version includes custom boot land recovery logos for the older devices like iPhone 3GS (old bootrom) iPod touch 2G (Non MC), and iPhone 3G.

This will let Windows users restore to a custom IPSW that were reated using PwnageTool for Mac. Up to this point only Mac users could create and restore to a Custom IPSW files using the PwnageTool but now with the released of new version of Redsn0w 0.9.6b2 you can restore to a custom IPSW file without upgrading your basebands.

Geohot Has Another Untethered Jailbreak Exploit Up His Sleeve For Next Gen iOS Devices

Limera1n Jailbreak Geohot Exploit

Come to find out our boy Geohot has another untethered jailbreak exploit that he held back from Limera1n to prevent Apple from learning about it.

Incase you were wondering why Geohot used a userland exploit from Comex to make Limera1n untethered, it was because he did not wanted to waste his untethered version of bootrom exploit.

Both Comex and MuscleNerd has confirmed that Geohot has in his possession a new untethered bootrom level exploit which can be used to pwn future iOS devices like iPhone 5 and iPad 2G for life. Read more…

iPhone Dev-Team May Have Found Way to Jailbreak All Future A4 Firmwares with PwnageTool+limera1n+@comex hacks

All iPhones, iPads and iPod Touch A4 Devices will be Jailbroken for life

Hey guys, I think the Jailbreaking community is finally moving forward with the Jailbreak for all A4 Apple iDevices.

We now have (i Hope) a way to Jailbreak all future Apple iPhones, iPads and iPod Touch devices with the exploits shared by Chronic Dev Team and the Famous “Egoistical” GeoHot and of course the Userland Famous exploit by Comex,

The iPhone Dev-Team may have found a method to jailbreak all future firmware versions for iDevices with the A4 chip. So what does it mean to you/for you? Simple this; if you have an iPhone 4, iPad or the newest iPod Touch, you will be able to Jailbreak it everytime Apple comes out with new firmware update.

According to MuscleNerd the jailbreak would be untethered. Here is what he said in his tweet today; Read more…

iPhone Dev-Team will Release PwnageTool 4.1 for iPhone 4 Jailbreak on iOS 4.1, Apple TV 2G this Sunday!

Pwnage Tool for Mac is coming this Sunday from iPhone Dev Team

Today MuscleNerd has tweeted that the iPhone Dev-Team is planning to release PwnageTool for iOS 4.1 by Sunday.

For AppleTV 2G users, the goal is for PwnageTool to cover you by Funday/Sunday (but still very limited app capability)

Two jailbreak utilities for iOS 4.1 have already been released. Limera1n and Greenpois0n. Unfortunately, both Jailbreak Solutions / Tools are for Windows only. Mac versions are said to be coming soon; however, that date can’t come soon enough for many users. A lot of Mac users are dying to jailbreak their devices so if you are a Mac user there is a light at the end of the tunnel for you.

PwnageTool has previously been a Mac only tool. This release should also bring the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad jailbreak to Mac users. Read more…

iPhone Dev-Team Updated their Blog and Posted On the Limera1n Jailbreak and GeoHot

iPhone Dev Team updated their blog on GeoHot and Limera1n

The iPhone Dev-Team has posted their thoughts on the release of Limera1n by Geohot on their blog yesterday.

After a few very dramatic days in the jailbreak community, geohot has come out of nowhere to release limera1n. It’s a bootrom-level jailbreak that works on the iPhone3GS, iPhone4, iPod touch 3G, iPod touch 4G, the iPad, and (technically) the AppleTV 2G.

DO NOT USE LIMERA1N IF YOU USE THE ULTRASN0W CARRIER UNLOCK — wait for PwnageTool to incorporate the limera1n exploit. This is so that you can avoid updating your baseband and losing the unlock (possibly forever). Read more…
