Bug Found In iOS 5 That Could Bring Untethered Jailbreak


Submitted by Dan; November 07, 2011
Chronic Dev Team's pod2g has just announced that he has discovered a bug in iOS 5 that could help in developing an untethered jailbreak for iOS 5. He tweeted claiming he found a bug that could potentially bring an untethered jailbreak for iOS 5. He states he has no release date and not to expect a release anytime soon but he'll be working hard on it. It is not known whether or not the bug also exists in iOS 5.0.1 beta that Apple has seeded to developers.Also, pod2g hasn't mentioned if the untethered jailbreak will work on iPad 2 and iPhone 4S. iPhone Dev team and iH8sn0w have released Redsn0w and Sn0wbreeze to jailbreak iOS 5.0 and iOS 5.0.1 betas, but they only support a tethered jailbreak. BigBoss has also developed SemiTether that allows users to reboot their tethered jailbroken iOS 5 device without the need to connect it to the computer, but it has limitations. So most users are anxiously awaiting an untethered jailbreak.
