The Flash port project is called Frash. Recently it became available for iPad, now iPhone users can install it on their devices. Of course you need to jailbreak, since Apple doesn’t support Flash in iDevices.
Credits go to hackers for the Frash port and for compilation.
Here is the video proof from redmondpie:
The installation instructions can be found .
Recently Vupen, which is a French security firm, posted an advisory that contained information about two critical security vulnerabilities in Apple’s iOS. After a while hacker comex used these flaws to create a jailbreak, which is now widely known and available on JailbreakMe.com.
But according to Reuters, yesterday Apple decided to react and its spokeswoman Natalie Harrison revealed that the company is currently investigating Vupen’s advisory. So it looks like these exploits are going to be fixed soon!
Many users reported that the first version of JailbreakMe broke the FaceTime and MMS features. The DevTeam fixed the bug.
New JailbreakMe users should simply proceed normally. The new version will not remove FaceTime or MMS from the iPhone.
Users who already installed JailbreakMe can get an easy fix. They should simply run Cydia and upgrade to the latest software.
Starting today every owner of iPad, iPhone or iPod can easily jailbreak his device via browser on
The site was created in a week after decision of the Library of Congress (that operates the Copyright Office), which states that jailbreaking isn’t illegal, though Apple claims it actually represents a threat to the stability and security of the company’s devices. Apple also says that jailbreaking voids the warranty, but such an action can be easily undone by resetting a device to the default factory settings.
Site JailbreakMe.com easily became a trending topic in Twitter after its announcement on RedmondPie.com. The jailbreak itself was created by hacker comex, and the website was done by chpwn and westbaer.
Jay Freeman, better known as Saurik, the creator of Cydia, was interviewed by the home radio Make It Work. He speaks about the history and the future of the iPhone jailbreak.
Saurik describes the origins of Jailbreak and Unlock for the very first model of the iPhone. Jay explains that initially there were two important things to do with the iPhone 2G -- to use other carrier than AT&T and to install any application.
He continues discussing the main applications from Cydia. Cycorder was the first to allow video recording, and Winterboard was the only one that allowed users to change the graphical interface of the iPhone. He also speaks about Comex, the hacker who is currently working with the Dev Team for releasing and Unlock for the . According to Saurik the tool is still not ready to be released to the public due to severe bugs in the code. Here the second part:
Here’s what hackers tweeted about new Apple firmwares 4.0.1 for iPhones and 3.1.2 for iPad:
DevTeam:
As with *any* new FW, jailbreakers + unlockers must avoid this upcoming 4.1 update until our tools are updated
3GS, ipt3G, iPhone4 users (regardless of current FW or JB status) should backup 4..0 SHSH blobs http://is.gd/dskh9 soon
Obviously avoid today’s 4.0.1 update until JB tools are updated. Luckily, no baseband change so ultrasn0w lives on
each FW version has unique blobs. But using http://is.gd/dskh9 you can get 4.0 blobs on PC while you stay at 3.1.2
Hah for those iPhone3G or ipt2g(non-MC) users at 4.1beta1: use redsn0w from 2 wks ago to JB http://is.gd/dstU3
Comex:
3.2.1 and 4.0.1 out. if you want an unlock, DO NOT UPDATE. No, the jailbreak is not ready yet.by the way, there is absolutely no reason to update to 4.0.1. it only improves the formula for _displaying bars_, not actual signal
Planetbeing:
There’s no baseband update, so signal strength or radio performance cannot have improved.Hey guys, I recommend any users who need jailbreak or unlock use http://3.ly/zN58 to back up their SHSHs NOW, and not upgrade.
iH8sn0w:
WARNING: 3.2.1 for the iPad is out. It KiLLS the Spirit Exploit. 4.0.1 is out too (not for the iPad though)
DevTeam hacker Planetbeing has just announced that the has been successfully unlocked.
Looks like I now have an unlocked iPhone 4.
My soft-unlocked iPhone 4 (in Canada). I’ll have video in a couple of hours once I can top-up the SIM. http://twitpic.com/24ycdv
DevTeam congratulated planetbeing in team’s official twitter:
Congrats to @planetbeing for first ever soft-unlocked iPhone4 http://is.gd/dqwvv (now to streamline it!)
Musclenerd also mentioned one interesting fact:
We think we have 3 different ways to unlock once inside BB (the 3rd way was first to fully work for @planetbeing !)
Congratulations for accomplishing this in such a short time. The unlock will be publicly available shortly after comex releases his jailbreak utility for iOS 4.
Here is a small comment from MuscleNerd about the upcoming iOS 4 jailbreak:
the next jailbreak from @comex is like first Spirit..all devices, all bootroms, latest FW, painless install
Sounds nice!
MuscleNerd, famous hacker from DevTeam, has announced via Twitter that an upcoming comex release will jailbreak all 4.0 devices. This will include latest iPhone 3GS, , new iPod Touch and iPad.
jailbreak for all devices at 4.0 is already handled by upcoming @comex release
Comex is also well-known, he authored the 3.1.2 and 3.1.3 jailbreak called Spirit. He’s also recently demonstrated Frash, an upcoming release of Flash for the iPhone and iPad.
Congratulations to all iPhone users. has been successfully jailbroken. iPhone hackers @planetbeing and @chpwn has managed to get root access on the device using @comex’s userland jailbreak method. However do not expect new jailbreak utility soon. @p0sixninja has confirmed that it cant be released in its current shape because it contains some of Apple’s proprietary code:
@i_Enthusiast the jailbreak shown is a more of a stepping stone for us, it can’t be released because it includes some of apples software
You should not expect the carrier unlock soon too. This is because iPhone 4 uses a new baseband OS, which will require a complete rewrite for ultrasn0w unlocking tool:
The DevTeam and others have been checking through the iPhone 4, and have noticed the baseband runs a completely different OS than on previous models. The iPhone 3G and 3G[S] both ran Nucleus OS on the PMB8878 baseband CPU (aka XGold 608), where the iPhone 2G ran the PMB8876 (aka S-Gold 2). iPhone 4 uses the PMB9800, or X-Gold 618 – running a separate OS – ThreadX, an RTOS by ExpressLogic.
