Absinthe New iPad 2 and iPhone 4S Jailbreak Tool is Called Absinthe

Pod2g has revealed that the new iPhone 4S and iPad 2 jailbreak tool developed by the Chronic Dev Team is called Absinthe.

A tool named Absinthe and developed by the Chronic Dev Team will install the untether on your device. Also the iPhone Dev Team will release a CLI (command line) tool to help diagnose issues and repair things if it goes wrong.

This is a little scary I know, but the chance you break something is really small, since we made lots of tests to verify the process on different devices. But it is the first time we use the backup / restore functions of iTunes to install software, and there are maybe things we are not aware of.

For more detailed information ahead of the jailbreak please read the information from iPhone Dev-Team.

pwned Jailbreak for iPad 2 and iPhone 4S: latest news, updates and FAQ

The iPhone 4S and iPad 2 jailbreak utilities are undergoing testing and polishing before the public release. According to ‘Dream Team’ member planetbeing:

We’re testing & fixing problems with the jb app (that @pimskeks finished the majority of at incredible speed). Still needs to be polished.

P0sixninja also tweeted it should not be much longer before the jailbreak gets released.

not much longer now

We hope to see the utilities soon, because more than a week ago there were tweetes that jailbreak should have been ready in few days.

iPhone Dev Team has posted a blog entry about upcoming public release. If you have iPad 2 or iPhone 4S go ahead and read it:

But we’re now near the final stages of testing the public version of the jailbreak.  Please allow time to clean up any remaining bugs in the jailbreak clients.Jailbreak programs:

To be as flexible as possible, the A5 version of the corona jailbreak will take multiple forms:

  • Chronic Dev have incorporated the overall flow into a GUI that runs on your Mac or PC.  The goal is for the GUI to be enough for most cases.
  • iPhone Dev have also incorporated the exact same flow into an alternative command-line interface (CLI). This will allow us to help users through individual steps of the jailbreak manually, to both help the user and help improve the overall flow.  Although the CLI will also allow the user to perform the entire jailbreak from beginning to end, we anticipate it will be more useful in debugging the occasional errors.  The CLI currently has over 20 individual options (in addition to the single “jailbreak” option) that should be useful during debug after the GUI release.
  • Once all the bugs in the flow are worked out, we’ll also incorporate it into the redsn0w GUI (but still leave the CLI freely available too).  In order to maximize the chances of the jailbreak working for everyone, the redsn0w GUI will use native Apple iTunes libraries — this technique is slightly different than how the Chronic Dev GUI handles communications, and should provide nice combined coverage for all the odd computer configurations out there.

Firmware:

The supported firmware versions will be:

  • iPhone4S: 5.0 (9A334), 5.0.1 (9A405) and the “other” 5.0.1 (9A406)
  • iPad2: 5.0.1 (9A405)

iPhone4S owners looking to maximize their chances of achieving an eventual software-based carrier unlock should be staying at 5.0. Everyone else should be at 5.0.1.  If you’re an iPhone4S owner who already updated to 5.0.1, it’s too late to go back down to 5.0, but if you’re on 9A406 it is possible to downgrade the BB by going to the 9A405 version of 5.0.1 while the window is still open.

Support:

The overall flow used by the GUI and CLI to inject the A5 corona jailbreak has never been done before, and there may be unforeseen problems once it’s released to the public.  It’s very important for you to sync your data, photos, and music before attempting any version of this jailbreak.  We’ll be watching the comments section below for signs of any widespread problems, but please be aware that you jailbreak at your own risk!

When:

As mentioned at the start of this post: when testing has shown most of the bugs have been fixed!

Pod2g has posted a photo confirming the successful untethered jailbreak of the iPad 2 on iOS 5.0.1.

Recently pod2g posted a video showing the successful untethered jailbreak of the iPhone 4S on iOS 5.0.1.

Release of the jailbreak is expected in a few days. We’ll let you know as soon as it is available!

Jailbreak iPhone4S Untethered jailbreak for iPad 2 and iPhone 4S will be released in a few days

The ‘dream team‘ of iPhone hackers has made more progress on the A5 jailbreak with planetbeing just announcing that they’re out of Apple’s sandbox.

And we’re out of the sandbox with @saurik’s invaluable help! (well, at least there’s a PoC) :D Turning out more complex than X-Gold 618.

pod2g also mentioned progress in twitter:

@planetbeing escaped from the sandbox with the help of @saurik. Thanks to their awesome work, there should be nothing left blocking for the A5 jailbreak. Now it should be a matter of days. Still no precise ETA of course.

Now that the team has been successful in breaking out of Apple’s sandbox (which lets them run unsigned code) they’ll focus their attention on writing the Mac OS X and Windows software utilities.

“Now it should be a matter of days” means that jailbreak utilities will be released very soon, maybe next week.

a5 jail 1 Saurik makes contribution towards iPad 2 and iPhone 4S untethered jailbreak

It looks like iPad 2 and iPhone 4S untethered jailbreak will truly be a team effort. Recently another hacker Saurik joined the team and made “some major contributions” yesterday.

Last week Pod2g announced that Planetbeing, MuscleNerd, and P0sixninja joined his effort to release an untethered iOS 5.0.1 jailbreak of the iPhone 4S and iPad 2 (A5 CPU devices).

Today, MuscleNerd noted that the team has received some major contributions from saurik:

props to @saurik for major contributions to the A5 version of @pod2g’s untether yesterday! (still no ETA, but moving forward)

Pod2g also thanked planetbeing for his help in escaping from the sandbox.

And greetings to @planetbeing for the coding + research. Really great stuff to escape from the sandbox.

Good news, that means that there is progress and we might see utility sometime this month.

UPDATE:
Pod2g has also addressed the request that the untethered jailbreak be released to developers. He previously revealed that there is a working jailbreak that requires a developer account.

Sorry, we can’t release the A5 for the developers, the exploit used have to be kept secret. I know this is unfair.

pwned Dream Team will work on untethered iPad 2 and iPhone 4S jailbreak

Pod2g has recently announced that Planetbeing, MuscleNerd, and P0sixninja have joined his effort to release an iOS 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak for the iPhone 4S and iPad 2.

@planetbeing, the legendary hacker behind iPhone Linux and lot of jailbreaks has joined the A5 research! The famous @MuscleNerd, the leader of the iPhone Dev Team, who did a lot of tests for Corona and whom integrated it and made it simple in redsn0w is willing to help also. And last, but not least @p0sixninja, the leader of the Chronic Dev Team, and my partner for years on iPhone security research has started to code and fuzz the Apple sandbox.

That means that we now have a dream team to create a public release of the A5 jailbreak.

Several day ago pod2g posted information why the A5 jailbreak had not been released yet. The key reason being that the exploit used for A4 devices (called limera1n) doesn’t work on A5 devices. The untethered iPhone 4S and iPad 2 jailbreak that we have seen on videos and photos was created relying on having a developer account.

We are sure that planetbeing, MuscleNerd, p0sixninja and pod2g is just a great team. Hopefully they will find necessary exploit and implement it fast, because Apple might release 5.0.2 or 5.1 and fix untathered.
