Tethered jailbreak for iOS 5.1 available on non-A5 devices

Ben Kersey, Mar 8th 2012 Discuss [0]

Well, that was certainly quick. iOS 5.1 hasn’t even been with us for 24 hours, but already there’s a tethered jailbreak. It’s not all good news though: it’s only available for devices not running Apple’s A5. That means you won’t be able to get in on the action on the iPad 2, iPhone 4S, or “the new” iPad when it ships on March 16th. Read The Full Story

iPhone 4/3GS get ultrasn0w SIM unlock tool for iOS 5

Chris Davies, Oct 14th 2011 Discuss [35]

The ultrasn0w iPhone unlock tool has been updated to support handsets running iOS 5, allowing owners of iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 to upgrade to the recently released new version of the platform but still use their phones with other SIMs. The new ultrasn0w is still effectively a tethered system for the iPhone 4, the iPhone Dev Team confirmed today, since currently the iOS 5 jailbreak (and which is necessary if you then want to unlock your phone) requires a USB connection on each reboot.

Chris Burns, Dec 27th 2010 Discuss [0]

So you've got Cydia, an app for iOS that allows you to search and browse and download other apps for your jailbroken iDevice (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch,) and you're wondering if there's one big place for you to find everything. There's not! Sort of. There is a big list of sources for Cydia and ICY (very similar to Cydia) compiled by a fellow by the name of Ultrasn0w over at the iPhone Developers forum, and we've got that list for you here, too, today!

Dev-Team looks for redsn0w testers for 4.2.1 untethered jailbreak “backup plan”

Shane McGlaun, Dec 24th 2010 Discuss [5]

Back in November, we first talked about redsn0w and outlined a bit of the downsides about trying it out.

Say "shattered" and "iPod touch" in the same sentence, and we'd usually think you'd been careless with your new PMP. Unfortunately for Apple's repairs department, however, SHAtter is actually a new exploit that should eventually replace now closed loophole used by the jailbreakme.com site.

iPhone 4 dual-SIM case makes network hopping easy

Chris Davies, Aug 27th 2010 Discuss [2]

The iPhone 4 can do plenty, even play nicely on other GSM networks when you've unlocked it with ultrasn0w, but up until now you couldn't put two SIM cards inside it. USBfever's new iPhone 4 Dual SIM Adapter Case doesn't quite change that - the two SIMs in question aren't exactly within the iPhone - but it does allow you to easily flip between cards without reaching for the Liquidmetal tool.

Chris Davies, Aug 2nd 2010 Discuss [0]

Yesterday's news of a simple, webpage-based Jailbreak solution for the iPhone 4, iPad and iPod touch took most of us by surprise, but the fact that over-demand crashed the JailbreakMe.com servers didn't. Now they're back up, but if you managed to run your device through the jailbreaking process early yesterday then you might find a few issues remaining: namely, problems with FaceTime video calling and MMS messaging.
