Совместными усилиями хакеры выпустили новую версию утилиты для отвязанного джейлбрейка прошивки iOS 5.0.1 – RedSn0w 0.9.10b3. Исправлены ошибки, связанные с работой launchctl и MobileSubstrate. Аналогичные обновления были интегрированы и в пакет Corona.
Если у вас после отвязки джейлбрейка возникли проблемы при работе некоторых приложений или выскакивали ошибки, мы рекомендуем обновить Corona или заново запустить RedSn0w (можно поверх старого джейлбрейка, при этом необходимо убрать галку с Install Cydia).
Скачать RedSn0w 0.9.10b3 можно . Обновление Corona доступно в Cydia.
