I don’t know whether to call it HUGE or what, pod2g - the person who found the SHAtter exploit and helped discover 24Kpwn – has announced that he is now leaving Chronic Dev Team in order to work independently.
AppSync has been updated so that it can be used with the new iOS 4.1 firmware. For those of you who don’t know, AppSync patches MobileInstallation file on iOS which is needed in order to install .ipa files manually without using iTunes.
PwnageTool bundle for iPhone 3G running final version of iOS 4.1 has been released. Unlike iOS 4.2 bundle, this one has fully working Cydia and it also supports hacktivation.
Just two days ago, we posted that GreenPois0n (the same tool which was initially planned for iPhone 3.1.3 and iPad 3.2 jailbreak) would be jailbreaking iOS 4.1 using the newly found SHAtter exploit.
We previously mentioned that a low-level tethered jailbreak for iOS 4.1 would be coming soon to iPhones, iPod touches and iPad. Just now, we have received information that the next jailbreak will be from Chronic Dev-Team and it will be named GreenPois0n.
We informed you earlier that there is soon going to be a way to enable iOS 4.1 HDR (High Dynamic Range) Photography feature on your jailbroken iPhone 3G and 3GS. While the Cydia tweak still isn't out yet, you can follow the steps posted below to enable this feature as long as you have managed to jailbreak your iPhone 3GS or 3G on iOS 4.1.
The unofficial version of PwnageTool for iOS 4.1 on iPhone 3GS has been released. It can jailbreak iPhone 3GS (with old bootrom only) using iOS 4.1 custom firmware. For those of you who don’t know, PwnageTool for Mac enables iPhone users to upgrade to the new firmware without upgrading the baseband, hence making it possible to jailbreak and unlock the phone using the Ultrasn0w software. This version of PwnageTool unfortunately doesn’t support hacktivation, so you will have to either use officially supported SIM, or the phonebook SIM card method to activate the phone before unlocking it with Ultrasn0w.
The newly released iOS 4.1 for iPhone 4, 3GS, and 3G features new baseband which is currently not unlockable using the current version of ultrasn0w. But if you upgrade (while preserving baseband) and then jailbreak iPhone 3GS on iOS 4.1 using PwnageTool method posted here, you can unlock your phone (iPhone 3GS) using the existing version of ultrasn0w. Also, if you upgrade your iPhone 4 (while preserving baseband) on iOS 4.1 using the method posted here, you will be able to unlock your phone (iPhone 4) as soon as the new jailbreak tool is available for download.
First announced back at WWDC10, and then again at Apple’s Music Event on September 1st, Game Center is now live on iTunes on both desktops and iOS devices!
Apple has just released the very final version for iOS 4.1 for iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G and iPod touches. This version of iOS brings a number of new features for iPhone and iPod touch users including: Game Center, HDR Photography for iPhone 4, iTunes Ping, HD video upload on YouTube and MobileMe for iPhone 4 and iPod touch 4G and so on. If you want to keep your jailbreak and unlock, you better not update to this latest firmware now until and unless new jailbreak and unlock tools are available for download.
