Tag: developersHacker p0sixninja (Joshua Hill) tweeted that he plans to create OpenJailbreak, a new repository of open source jailbreak components on Twitter earlier today.
Ok, I hate redsn0w, I hate sn0wbreeze, and I hate 6.1.3. I’m ready to get this #openjailbreak off the ground
Elaborating further he told:
Essentially it’s going to be a repository of open source jailbreak components that I created over the years. So much of my code has been hacked up and incorporated into other projects, it’s becoming very fragmented. There’s no central repository to maintain all this code, to allow other developers to submit patches or help layout a roadmap for what new features and abilities will be added in the future.
This is pretty interesting. Pod2g just announced that the new iOS 6.1.1 beta that Apple seeded to developers yesterday does not actually patch the exploits used in the latest jailbreak.
Apple has released iOS 6.1.1 beta to developers. It’s only been a week since Apple released iOS 6.1 to the public. And it’s just 48 hours after the iOS 6.x evasi0n jailbreak was released. Release notes indicate maps improvement and some other optimization. well, we understand that the main purpose of iOS 6.1.1 is probably to fix vulnerabilities used by envasi0n jailbreak.
MuscleNerd already commented via twitter:
6.1.1 beta is already out to developers! Obviously stay away from that.
Chpwn has posted an image showing Cydia running on a jailbroken iPad 4.
It doesn’t look any different than on the iPad (3rd generation), but here’s Cydia running on the iPad (4th generation):
Recently, MuscleNerd posted to show that the jailbreak discovered by chpwn was .
Last month, chpwn revealed that his jailbreak would be reserved as a failbreak. That means it will be limited to jailbreak developers and won’t be released to the public. This is being done to make it easier to discover new exploits (which will be used for public release) in the future.

MuscleNerd has announced that the jailbreak developed by chpwn and phoenixdev works on the iPad mini.
the “failbreak” from @phoenixdev @chpwn in action on an iPad-mini 🙂 http://twitpic.com/ba1ega (why failbreak? see @planetbeing’s timeline)
Last month, chpwn revealed that his jailbreak for the iPhone 5 would be reserved as a failbreak. That means it will be limited to jailbreak developers and won’t be released to the public. This is being done to make it easier to discover new exploits (which will be used for public release) in the future.
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 a tethered jailbreak of iOS 6 for the iPhone 3GS, , and iPod touch 4G.

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 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:
