GreenPois0n Delayed, SHAtter is Safe Now

from : Chornic Dev Team

Thanks to the irresponsible antics of geohot, we will have to delay the release of greenpois0n (new ETA = as soon as possible), so that we have time to clean up his little mess and integrate the exploit he uses in limera1n into greenpois0n. This way, we can save SHAtter for future devices that may still be vulnerable to it.

We know that this is not what some people want to hear, but due to geohot needing to feed his ego (as usual) and revealing his limera1n exploit, we do not have any other responsible options.

Sn0wbreeze to Jailbreak iPhone 4, iOS 4.1 Coming Soon

idn't want to post that title, I wanted to post "Sn0wbreeze for iPhone 4 Coming Soon, Who cares?". Yes, who really cares about Sn0wbreeze for iPhone 4 when you can already do this using Limera1n? Limera1n really works on iPhone 4 running iOS 4.1 so why should you 'iH8sn0w' update your tool now?

I just posted this to keep you informed about what's going on in the jailbreak scene. If you want really to jailbreak iPhone 4 on iOS 4.1, you can use our guide posted here to do this. We will keep you informed when the tool is released.

Jailbreak iPod touch 4G, 3G on iOS 4.1 with Limera1n

Limera1n can do this! Yes, it can jailbreak iPod touch 4G, iPod touch 3G, iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and iPad on iOS 4.1 / 3.2.2. By the way, it still not working with old bootrom devices, Geohot is fixing the issues right now. So, here's a quick how to guide to jailbreak your iPod touch 4G, 3G running iOS 4.1 using Limera1n.

You can follow the same step by step guide instructions to jailbreak iPhone 4. It's the same guide for iPod touch 4G and iPod touch 3G. Just to let you know, iPod touch 2G is jailbroken with Redsn0w and still tethered until Comex release his userland exploit.

Jailbreak iPhone 4, 3GS New Bootrom on iOS 4.1 with Limera1n

Moments ago, we posted that Limera1n was released to jailbreak all iOS 4.1 devices forever. We promised with how-to guides and here we go, you can now use the step by step guide below to jailbreak iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS using Limera1n on Windows only.

Here's the instructions to jailbreak iPhone 4, 3GS on iOS 4.1 using Limera1n, PLEASE read the important notes at the end of the post:

STEP 1: Download Limera1n for Windows from here.

STEP 2: Connect your iPhone to your PC via USB then launch Limera1n and hit “make it ra1n”

STEP 3: You will have to get your device into DFU mode by following the steps on the screen shown by Limera1n.

• You iPhone will now be placed in recovery mode.

• Press both the power and the home buttons.

• When Limera1n asks you to, release the power button.

• Your phone will now be in DFU mode

STEP 4: Now, Limera1n app should be shown on your iPhone's home screen. Limera1n will pwn your device forever now.

STEP 5: The jailbreak should be done now. Tap on the limera1n icon on your device and install Cydia.

IMPORTANT:

• You have to keep some points in your mind, first, Limera1n will not unlock your device (i.e. you will lose unlock if you upgraded to iOS 4.1 and used limera1n).
• Limera1n would mess up GreenPois0n jailbreak release as the teams don't want to give Apple two exploits. They would better save one of them to 5th-generation devices.

Limera1n is Live!

Big breaking news in our world tonight as limera1n (to jailbreak iOS 4.1 for all iDevices) has been released - though it is for windows only (Yes, yes, a Mac version would be nice, but let's appreciate what we've got and give props out to where they belong).

A full guide and a slightly restructured guide system will be provided by ModMyi later this evening. By several accounts, and corroborated by those of you have have already delved right in, it works pretty well so far (though issues could become apparent, as the release is so fresh anything could still develop in the moments ahead). So exercise the degree of caution you're comfortable with and stick with MMi for tons of info, insight, and fallout in the minutes and hours to come.

Making this weekend a jailbreaker's dream, let's not forget about what Sunday has in store. Chronic Dev Team member Joshua Hill recently tweeted that Greenpois0n will launch on October 10, at 10:10:10 A.M. “Things have progressed to the point where we don't expect anymore roadblocks. ETA for greenpois0n is 10/10/10 at 10:10:10AM.” so be on standby with your iDevices for what will be a pretty sweet Sunday.

UPDATE

There is high drama in jailbreaker's paradise tonight as we're learning all is not smooth sailing with limera1n (the bugs are alive and well), as it simply isn't working right for everyone. Adding to the drama is the apparent reality that greenpois0n isn't coming out tomorrow after all. To be sure, the Chronic Dev Team is not happy with GeoHot at the moment. Stay tuned.
