Untethered iOS 5.0 jailbreak has been demoed on video while the untethered jailbreak for 5.0.1 iOS is still in progress. Pod2G, a member of Chronic Dev Team who had earlier found the exploit to jailbreak iPod Touch 4G on iOS 4.1, has posted a video showing iOS 5 untethered jailbreak. Jailbreak devs have been working hard to find exploits to untether iOS 5 jailbreak and looks like the results are just starting to show. Here is the update from Pod2G:

:-) iOS 5.0 untethered jailbreak demo :http://youtu.be/n8gi3qRfd7Q

It’s not certain at the moment if the exploit found by pod2g will work on A5 devices, iPad 2 & iPhone 4S. It should also be noted that this video is based on iOS 5, not on 5.0.1. Here is the video:

Update: In a recent update, pod2g says that it may be possible to untether 5.0.1 iOS with this bug as well:

No it does not rely on it. Next step do the same on iOS 5.0.1. Should be quick.

We’ll keep you updated on this, stay tuned!

Remember pod2g who discovered exploit to jailbreak iPod Touch 4 last year. Now, it appears, he’s found a bug for untethered iOS 5.0.x jailbreak. As he recently tweeted:

Hey jailbreaking friends, I’ve found a bug that can untether iOS 5. Don’t expect a release soon, but I’m gonna work hard in it.

Earlier, MuscleNerd also posted a screenshot of jailbroken iPhone 4S on iOS 5.0 few days ago. However, there’s no ETA for untethered iOS 5.0 jailbreak either from the iPhone Dev Team or the Chronic Dev Team. As a result, users have to go for tethered jailbreak for now, which is available via latest Redsn0w or Sn0wbreeze.

In the meantime, untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.0.x is being actively worked upon by both dev teams and we can expect either Greenpois0n iOS 5.0.x or the Redsn0w update to untether 5.0.x iOS soon.

iH8sn0w is likely to release sn0wbreeze 2.6.2 for untethered jailbreak Verizon iPhone 4 4.2.8 8E401 soon. He has previously released sn0wbreeze 2.6.1 to jailbreak iOS 4.2.7 8E303 (untethered). Sn0wbreeze 2.6.2 will also bring untethered 4.3.3 jailbreak for all iOS devices on Windows. According to ih8sn0w:

Verizon 4.2.8 untether out of the way. Now just waiting on @i0n1c’s untether binaries for 4.3.3 and we got a new sn0wbreeze. :)

Redsn0w 0.9.6 RC15 is also expected to release once i0n1c ports his untether exploit to iOS 4.3.3. As for now, you can get tethered jailbreak iOS 4.3.3 using Redsn0w 0.9.6 RC14.

i0n1c, the developer of untethered jailbreak for 4.3.1 iOS has just confirmed that it is possible to get untethered jailbreak 4.3.2 iOS as his untethered exploit was not patched by Apple, unlike initial reports. He also told that he was running untethered jailbreak iPad 4.3.2 iOS. What this means is that we’ll soon have untethered jailbreak released to the masses.

As for ETA, untethered 4.3.2 jailbreak is expected to release by Sunday April 17, 2011. It could be available in iOS 4.3.2 compatible redsn0w 0.9.6 RC13 and PwnageTool 4.3.x. Here is the series of updates as issued by i0nic:

I cannot read/answer importan e-mail because I never travel with GPG keys on my travel notebook.

Of course the public untether binaries will not work with iOS 4.3.2 – I have to generate new untether binaries with new dyld/kernel offsets

I won’t be able to create all the untether binaries before sunday, because I will be on planes, …

Apple released iOS 4.3.2 firmware yesterday and you can already get tethered 4.3.2 jailbreak either with Redsn0w 0.9.6 RC12 or with PwnageTool 4.3.2 Bundles using following guides:

Untethered 4.3.1 Jailbreak Release Imminent

As the iPhone Dev Team are working to release untethered iOS 4.3.1 jailbreak based on exploit found by Stefan Esser, MuscleNerd has hinted on a possible release soon. He described Stefan’s exploit as “solid”, that leaves them working on some minor issues before they release iOS 4.3.1 untethered jailbreak.

well @i0n1c’s untether is solid! Just working out overall 4.3.x JB issues and Cydia :)

cydia-ios431

He also put to silence the rumors of a possible leak of Comex’s exploit at hands of Dev Team. Here’s what he said:

because the Dev Team conspiracy theories are getting out of hand: we were not privy to @comex’s iPad2 jailbreak details

(It may or may not have been leaked, but *if* it was it couldn’t have been us. We weren’t in that IRC channel.)

@esqew the problem is, how did Apple know they were fixing *the* iPad2 jailbreak hole (in BGR’s article). There are lots of holes.

Tethered jailbreak is already available for iOS 4.3.1 with Sn0wbreeze 2.4 and PwnageTool Bundles. You can follow the guides linked below to get tethered jailbreak.

Comex Untethered Jailbreak 4.3.1 Exploit Leaked

Call it a surprise or a leak, the untethered jailbreak 4.3.1 exploit that comex was in possession of has been patched by Apple in iOS 4.3.1. In a series of tweets, comex revealed that the exploit was there from iOS 4.0.2 up till iOS 4.3 but was “magically” patched by Apple in recently released iOS 4.3.1. Here’s what he said:

As noticed by @0naj, my kernel exploit was fixed in 4.3.1.

I try not to be paranoid, but it is really hard to explain this as anything but a leak.

The funny thing is that my "new" kernel exploit is actually the kernel exploit used by JailbreakMe 2.0. It was never properly fixed.

It stayed there from 4.0.2 through 4.3, but was magically found in time for 4.3.1.

With this goes the hope for JailbreakMe 3.0 kind of jailbreak for iOS 4.3.1. Comex had shown off iPad 2 iOS 4.3 jailbreak on video soon after iPad 2 went on sale. Now all eyes are on Stefan as he’s also in possession of untethered 4.3.1 jailbreak exploit and has posted iOS 4.3.1 untethered jailbreak video recently. As for now, you can get tethered jailbreak on iOS 4.3.1 using following guides:
