This is a warning to always be careful about the source of a jailbreak. There are scammers out there who pretend to be legitimate developers, who will attempt to infect your computer, trick you out of your money, or funnel ad revenue to their sites without delivering the goods. If you see an ad or [...]

Just yesterday, we posted about the video from the Dream Team that explained the Corona untethered jailbreak. The team, consisting of Pod2g, Planetbeing, posixninja and others, spoke at the Hack in the Box 2012 conference at Amsterdam. The team also released the untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.1.1 on the same day. The Corona jailbreak video [...]

The Dream Team, as we all know them as, are the reason behind the last two untethered jailbreaks on iOS 5.0.1 and iOS 5.1.1. The team was present at the Hack In The Box conference that took place last month in Amsterdam. They spoke about the jailbreak, the exploits and more, while also releasing Absinthe [...]

If you’ve been in the iPhone modding scene for a while, you might have noticed that the Absinthe 2.0 jailbreak doesn’t require booting your device into DFU mode. As it turns out, the simpler it is to jailbreak a phone for the end user, the more of a security threat the underlying exploit is for Apple. [...]

Planetbeing recently promised that the Chronic Dev Team is rigorously working on iOS 5.1.1 untethered jailbreak for the iPad 2,4. This particular iPad was released earlier this year with a smaller 32nm processor that reduces power consumption, hence providing users with longer battery life. This was done to save costs since Apple decided to sell the iPad [...]

The iPad 2,4 is a revised version of the iPad 2 that features a lower power consumption level thanks to a new chipset introduced by Apple. For those that tried to Jailbreak their iPad 2,4 with Absinthe 2.0 when it was released last week you were probably in for a surprise that it was one [...]

Over the course of the last jailbreak’s development cycle, you might remember that there was a division in the jailbreak community over whether Pod2g should release a jailbeak for iOS 5.1 or save his exploits for Apple’s upcoming iOS 6 firmware release. Pod2g wanted to release immediately to bring in owners of the third generation [...]

Apple, for no apparent reason at all, released a new version of iOS 5.1.1 specifically for the iPhone 4 GSM with the build number 9B208. It has no new features or anything as such and it won’t update your current baseband. However, it was revealed yesterday that Absinthe 2.0 can untethered jailbreak this version and [...]

As we reported earlier, Apple has released the iOS 5.1.1 Build 9B208 update for the GSM iPhone 4. BigBoss, the developer behind SBSettings (and the BigBoss repository on Cydia) confirmed on his site that Apple has not patched Pod2g’s untether exploit, the update just changed the firmware enough to require a slightly different payload. BigBoss expects that the [...]

As we reported, Apple quietly released an updated version of iOS 5.1.1 for the GSM model of the iPhone 4 yesterday evening. iOS 5.1.1 build 9B208 is currently not jailbroken, so if you installed build 9B208 by accident, the best course of action would be to restore to the previous build of iOS 5.1.1 (9B206).
