Jailbreak iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad

The iPhone Dev-Team has updated RedSn0w 0.9.15 with some bug fixes for iPhone 3GS and iPad owners.

Version 0.9.15b2 fixes a few issues for 3GS owners: old-bootrom awesomeness is no longer forgotten directly after a restore, and iPad baseband upgrade/downgrade support is fixed (same production date cutoffs apply!). If your 3GS is currently tethered at 6.0 even though you have an old bootrom, just re-run redsn0w’s Jailbreak step (no need to restore). Don’t forget you can add some pizzaz with your own boot logo or a nerdy verbose boot.

Redsn0w 0.9.15 brought gives us possibility to do iOS 6 jailbreak and different downgrade options.

You can download RedSn0w 0.9.15b2 here.

The iPhone Dev-Team has announced RedSn0w 0.9.15b1 which brings numerous new features including iOS 6 jailbreak for old devices, ability to restore to older firmware, manipulating SHSH blobs and etc.

iOS 6 jailbrak is tethered for iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and iPod Touch 4G, untethered only for old iPhone 3GS with old bootrom. Tethered jailbreak means that each time you restart your device you will need to connect it to a computer and run redsn0w.

iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad 2 and iPad 3 are not supported.

We will create our step-by-step tutorials soon.

Famous hacker has already jailbroken the iPhone 5! Chpwn posted several photos via twitter. The pictures shows an iPhone 5 running iOS 6 with Cydia installed and Cydia home page on iPhone 5. Take a look:

Famous hacker P0sixninja has recently announced via Twitter that he has left the Chronic Dev-Team.

Just so everyone knows, I’m no longer associated with Chronic-Dev Team. And hopefully by now everyone sees it was never about the money for me.

It’s unclear what exactly has led p0sixninja to depart from the team and whether or not he will continue working independently on iOS jailbreaks.

P0sixninja contributed to the scene with work on GreenPois0n, Cdev Reporter, Absinthe, etc.

According to 9to5Mac, a Russian hacker has published a relatively simple method that allows users to obtain in-app purchases from many iOS apps for free.

The method, which doesn’t require a jailbreak, involves installation of two certificates on the user’s iOS device and changing DNS entry in wi-fi settings. Then users can perform purchases of in-app content as usual.

The iPhone Dev-Team has released RedSn0w 0.9.12b2. New version has some bugfixes and additional question about jailbreak mode for A4 devices.

Redsn0w allows owners of A4+earlier devices to install rocky-racoon two different ways:

• Backup/restore method similar to Absinthe and cinject.
• Traditional limera1n-based ramdisk install. It is much faster, especially for users with lot’s music, movies, apps on the device.

Redsn0w 0.9.12b2 will ask owners of iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPod Touch 3G, iPod Touch 4G and iPad 1 what jailbreak mode they would like to use.

Starting with version 0.9.12b2, redsn0w will now explicitly ask users with limera1n-able devices whether they want to inject rocky-racoon using the DFU ramdisk method or the backup/restore method (the ramdisk method is better for those with lots of media on their device that would create very large backups, and it’s required for those with unactivated iPhones). If you’ll always want to use limera1n, you can select that in the Preferences pane. It also fixes an iBooks issue on old-bootrom 3GS iPhones, and provides more useful error messages when things go wrong.

RedSn0w 0.9.12b2 supports untethered iOS 5.1.1 jailbreak for all devices:

• iPhone 3GS
• iPhone 4
• iPhone 4S
• iPad 1
• iPad 2
• new iPad 3
• iPod Touch 3G
• iPod Touch 4G
