The Hack In The Box security conference runs from May 21st to the 25th at the Okura Hotel in Amsterdam, and Pod2g announced on his blog that something big was going to happen at the conference related to jailbreaking. Pod2g linked to the Chronic Dev Team’s twitter (@chronicdevteam), which posted the message: “Ready for some [...]
If you read Stefan Esser’s twitter (@i0n1c) lately, you might think pod2g was the last developer working on iOS kernel exploits and that the Jailbreak community would disintegrate within the next year as more hackers see… angry kids giving star reviews to Esser’s new book. However it seems that pod2g isn’t our lone code cowboy for [...]
Hacking Apple’s iOS devices is an extremely hard task and is definitely not for the feint hearted. In fact, I remember talking to Comex awhile back about just how difficult hacking Apple’s iOS devices were and he stated that they were the hardest devices he had come across to actually exploit. This was just about two years [...]
The Chronic-Dev Crash Reporter Tool was designed to stop sending crash reports to Apple from your iOS devices and instead re-direct the crash reports to a private Chronic-Dev server. This initiative was started to limit the amount of crash reports sent to Apple, to give hackers more of a chance to develop their exploits into workable [...]
If you are in to Jailbreaking and have not heard of the hacker P0sixninja I would be very surprised.

Some of the software P0sixninja and Chronic-Dev have [...]

The A5 untethered jailbreak has been released and everyone is jailbreaking their iPhone 4S and iPad 2 untethered. The wait is finally over, but not for everyone. The Absinthe tool, released by GreenPoison, has been made for Mac OS X only and Windows users are not feeling so good. There has been no update on [...]
Hacker P0sixNinja, one of the founding members of Chronic-Dev, has recently tweeted something very interesting. He has mentioned, and I quote, “Not much longer now.” What could this tweet be referring to you might ask? Well, as far as we know P0sixNinja is referring to the public release of the iPhone 4S and iPad 2 [...]
If you have not at least heard of SOPA or PIPA I would be very surprised. The Stop Online Privacy Act (SOPA for short) and the Protect IP Act (PIPA for short) is currently trying to be introduced into congress and is receiving a heavy amount of negative attention. The reason being, this Act would change the [...]
A couple of days ago we told you that thanks to Saurik’s contributions the Dream Team have managed to get past the Sandbox errors that was halting further progress on the iPhone 4S and iPad 2 Untethered Jailbreak. It was mentioned that getting past these Sandbox errors proved to be a more complex task than exploiting the iPhone [...]
