Just like version 2.9.4 the new 2.9.5 version supports untethered jailbreak of A4 devices on iOS 5.1.1. Sn0wbreeze can be used to create a custom firmware with jailbreak and preserve iPhone modem (baseband) version for unlock.

Pod2g has announced the discovery of 2 new vulnerabilities in his quest to jailbreak the iPhone.
News: a productive week-end. Found 2 big vulnerabilities. 1 kernel land and 1 root land.
Too bad I have to be secret again…
Last week pod2g noted that a jailbreak of iOS 5.1 would take at least a month to complete. We’ll post more information about how these new vulnerabilities will affect that schedule as soon as we hear more.
If the kernel land vulnerability is exploitable this could provide a jailbreak for the device no matter the firmware.
Now we have some estimations regarding the release of the iOS 5.1 untethered jailbreak. Pod2g noted that it is at least a month away.
ETA for 5.1 JB: no clue! We’re going to set pieces of the puzzle together this week. We could have issues… Could be 1 month maybe 2…
I know 1 month seems long, but it’s short to work on a project like this when it’s a hobby and you’ve other things to do as well.
Last week, pod2g reported that the Chronic Dev-Team has all the exploits required to release an untetheredjailbreak of iOS 5.1 for all devices, including iPad 3, iPad 2 and iPhone 4S. However it would take some time to put it together into a useable release.
A new unlock has been discovered that works for all iPhones and all 5.x firmware versions, all basebands are supported.
The method discovered by Loktar_Sun appears to exploit a logical bug in Apple’s server and can be performed on any jailbroken iOS device. His procedure involves using Sam Bingner’s SAM (Subscriber Artificial Module) package to perform a series of steps that unlocks your phone to use a specific SIM.
It has been confirmed working by iPhone Dev-Team member MuscleNerd who notes an update may be coming to SAM from @sbingner to make the procedure simpler.
We will post detailed step by step unlock instructions soon.
