An Untethered 6.0.2 Jailbreak Is Ready

To be brutally honest, it's been quite some time since we have made any major progress with jailbreaking an Apple firmware. Obviously some of you that want to use a tethered option on your A4 enabled device have certainly been given the chance, but we all know that real success hasn't been reached until we can free ourselves from the shackles of a computer upon each and every boot. True fans of the scene itself have avoided iOS 6 simply because the added features don't entice them as much as Cydia does, but we've received some pretty solid word that updating may be in everybody's future.

Coming straight from scene source Planetbeing himself, "Yeah, I’m not really sure what all the doom and gloom is about. The fact is, I have an untethered iOS 6.0.2 JB running on my iPhone 5 right now." In addition to this he says that many of the key players have simply been busy at other technological projects so they haven't been able to look that much into getting a truly stable option ready. Why won't he just release it now you ask? Mostly because he doesn't want to give Apple any clues on his work considering iOS 6.1 is right around the corner. The hacker has also admitted that just a few more bugs need to be found before anything like this can go totally public. To round out the basic premise of this story, I'll turn to another quote: "while jailbreaking is getting harder, reports of its death are highly exaggerated."

You can bet as soon as we know more you all will be the first to hear of it!
