Comex's Untethered Jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 Soon, No Wait for iOS 4.3 / 4.2.5 Official Release

Wednesday, January 12, 2011

Some good news, Andrea Cervone over iPhoneItalia was able to contact with Comex (the hacker behind JailbreakMe and Spirit), he asked him whether he will preserve his untethered jailbreak until Verizon releases iPhone 4 which will be powered by iOS 4.2.5 ? Let's see how Comex replied him

    Andrea Cervone asking: So, if Apple releases iOS 4.2.5 on 10 February, you’ll preserver your new tool and exploits for that firmware? Maybe this will be a good move. Dev Team and Chronic Dev are releasing their tools for iOS 4.2.1, your can be saved for the future too.

    Comex replying:

    I hadn’t seen that.

    Interesting.. but a month’s

    A long time to wait.

So, it's now clear that Comex has moved back about his last ETA (estimate to arrival) for his untethered jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 as it was related to iOS 4.3 (or iOS 4.2.5) official release. Anyway let's wait and see. Stay tunes

Comex Untethered Jailbreak Saved for iOS 4.3 !

Monday, January 3, 2011

Now it's real ! Comex is saving his untethered hacks for iOS 4.3. Andrea Cervone of iPhoneItalia contacted the popular iPhone hacker Comex behind JailbreakMe and Spirit asking him about the release of his next jailbreak tool. Comex responded to the guy just the same as Steve Jobs. He's going to wait for Apple to release iOS 4.3 then push his next jailbreak to the world !

Cervone asking:
Just like Steve Job’s ones, I would like to really receive a short and direct answer to my question: your next tool will jailbreak ready for iOS 4.2.1 or the next iOS 4.3?

Comex replied:
Depends when 4.3 is out.

The e-mail address shown above in the screenshot is the same one he showed publicly on his Twitter account. Comex saved his jailbreak tool as the iPhone Dev Team has released a beta of their backup plan to untether iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak. Anyway, let's wait and see. Stay tuned !

iOS 4.2.1 Untethered Jailbreak is Going to be a Cydia Package?

Friday, December 24, 2010

You may don't need to restore or re-jailbreak your device to get the new iOS 4.2.1 untethered jailbreak, according to this tweet from Comex. This means that you'll not need to install Redsn0w and use it to get the untethered jailbreak, it should be added a Cydia package on some repository like BigBoss or ModMyi on Cydia.

comex: it's probably going to be a Cydia package. if I can get it to work.

However, comex's untethered jailbreak is delayed and won't be released by the Christmas Eve so you have to take in mind that the iPhone Dev Team has it's own backup plan that requires iOS 4.2 beta 3 SHSH blobs to be able to get the untethered jailbreak. More updates as they come ! Stay tuned !

SHAtter Exploit Possibly Burned? What does it Mean for the Jailbreak Community?

Thursday, December 23, 2010

Let the drama begin! We already knew it's happening, SHAtter bootrom exploit is now leaked and it's between Apple's hands! Who leaked it and for what reason? it's still unclear. What's clear is that Apple is going to patch it Limera1n exploit, and SHAtter exploit together in the new iOS devices.

When Limera1n was released two months ago, Chronic Dev Team decided to save SHAtter for next generation devices and don't release it but it seems like pod2g, the developer behind SHAtter bootom exploit, has published it in IRC between 15 person as MuscleNerd states.

iPhone hacker p0sixninja of the Chronic Dev Team is pointing a blame finger to Musclenerd of the iPhone Dev Team. As Musclenerd concentrates on unlocks, it seems unreasonable to think he’d leak an exploit he would need in order to create an unlock.

There's still some wonders if the real SHAtter code is burned or not as this part of Comex's tweet saying (the real) SHAtter digging further into Twitter shows that maybe a fake exploit was leaked on purpose.

Though we don't know if the real SHAtter is leaked or not, feel free to share your ideas in the comment section below! [TiPB]

Comex Untethered Jailbreak is Not Ready for Christmas Release

Comex has promised the iOS community with iOS 4.2.1 untethered jailbreak to launch before the Christmas but this tweet from Comex means that nothing is going to be released by the Christmas, i.e. we may not see that untethered jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 by this Christmas. Though keep the hopes up!

Yeah, don't forget that the iPhone Dev Team already has the backup plan and may be merged with Redsn0w to bring 1-click untethered jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1. Comex's userland-jailbreak may take longer. Anyway, stay tuned for more updates as they come !

Dev-Team Confirms Untethered iOS 4.2.1 for iPhone 4 For Release on Christmas

Saturday, December 18, 2010

Just two weeks ago, Comex, the developer behind JailbreakMe and Spirit jailbreak tools has confirmed the arrival of userland untethered jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 to be released on Christmas.

Today, MuscleNerd of the iPhone Dev Team has confirmed the same. In a deleted tweet spotted by RedmondPie claims that a untethered jailbreak solution for iOS 4.2.1 is indeed in works, and that it will be ready for prime-time use somewhere around Christmas.

scotty6kids78: @MuscleNerd are we any closer to the unteathered #jailbreak for the new #ios4.2 on #iphone4 ?

MuscleNerd: @scotty6kids78 it’ll be here by Xmas (not because we’re sitting waiting for Xmas, but because it’s achievable deadline)

We still don't know how reality is this tweet but it seems real. We'll keep you updated as more comes ! [via Redmond Pie]

iOS 4.2.1 Untethered Jailbreak Confirmed for Christmas

Wednesday, December 8, 2010

Early this morning, the iPhone Dev Team showed off a quick video demonstration for something called backup plan which doesn't waste exploits but this method requires more time to make it work on all devices on iOS 4.2.1.

iCykey: @comex I want a 4.2.1 untethered jailbreak for christmas :P

comex: @iCykey you'll get it.

Anyway, comex has confirmed that he will release his hacks to untethered iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak for Christmas so that means we'll see iOS 4.2.1untethered jailbreak before the end of 2010, and yes! in less than a month. I recommend to follow us on Twitter or get on Facebook to keep yourself updated with these bunch of good news about iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak.
