Sn0wbreeze 2.3b1 is now available for Windows users to jailbreak iOS 4.3 running on iPhone 4, 3GS, and iPod touch. Just like PwnageTool for Mac, Sn0wbreeze jailbreak is also tethered for all devices, which means you will have to boot into a jailbroken state every time you reboot your device.
Well some more bad news for early adaptors of iPad 2 who wants to jailbreak their shiny new device. After the confirmation of Limera1n being patched in iPad 2’s bootrom, MuscleNerd of iPhone Dev Team has now confirmed that early testing of SHAtter shows that it has also been patched by Apple in iPad 2.
The iPhone developer and hacker iH8sn0w has confirmed today that Apple has patched Limera1n exploit in iPad 2.
That untethered jailbreak demo that we posted about last night? Well it looks like the hacker behind the exploit is going to save it until Apple releases iOS 4.3.1.
Chinese site iDealsChina claims to have got hold of engineering design images of what could possibly be for the next-generation iPhone 5.
As we all know by now, the exploit which iPhone Dev Team, including MuscleNerd and Sherif Hashim, thought would work to unlock iPhone 4 on 2.10.04, 3.10.01 and 4.10.01 basebands unfortunately turned out to be a no-show in the end.
Just like how iMovie was hacked to run on iPhone 3GS, it was only a matter of time before someone figured out a way to install iMovie 1.2 for iPad 2 on to the first-gen iPad.
iPhone security expert and hacker Stefan Esser has managed to jailbreak iOS 4.3 untethered. He has been working privately on it for a while, independently of all teams. Therefore his work is likely to be legit.
After releasing iMovie for iPad, Apple today has also released GarageBand for both iPad and iPad 2. This app is now available on the iTunes App Store for $4.99.
