Five New Userland Exploits Have Been Discovered To Jailbreak iPhone 5 And iPad 2

There was a lot of great information unveiled at MyGreatFest today, probably the most noteworthy  information, however, came from the Chronic Dev-Team. Who were responsible for the first iOS 4.2.1 untethered Jailbreak in the form of the GreenPois0n Jailbreaking tool. When P0sixninja (one of the head members of the Chronic Dev-Team) took the stage, he announced to the world that the Chronic Dev-Team had in there possession 5 userland exploits which can be used to Jailbreak the iPhone and iPad 2 running the iOS 5 firmware. He noted that as these are userland exploits they can be patched by Apple in future firmware updates, but they should not be effected by the new hardware which will be present in the iPhone 5. Thus, the Chronic Dev-Team have essentially already Jailbroken the iPhone 5 untethered.

The news presented by P0sixninja today is definitely exciting for the Jailbreaking community. In fact P0sixninja said himself that it will be the most amazing jailbreak yet! What else did P0sixninja talk about? Well besides the news about 5 new exploits being discovered, P0sixninja talked about how funding is a huge problem for the Chronic Dev-Team. He noted Chronic Dev Team LLC is trying to recruit more experienced hackers, but as of right now funding is a large issue. We will keep you updated on what stems from these 5 userland exploits the Chronic Dev have in their possession. In the mean time please stay tuned…

Untethered Jailbreak For iOS 5 May Be Released Soon

If you were planning to skip jailbreaking iOS 5 because currently only a tethered jailbreak available then there is some good news for you. iPhone hacker - Stefan Esser - better known by his Twitter handle - i0n1c seems to suggest that we could soon see an untethered jailbreak for iOS 5 soon. Esser is credited for developing the untethered jailbreakused in jailbreak for iOS 4.3.1 and iOS 4.3.2 and recently has published a presentation titled "iOS Kernel Exploitation" which gives a rare insight into the latest iOS jailbreak techniques. Redsn0w and Sn0wbreeze currently supports only a tethered jailbreak for most of the iOS devices mentioned above, except for iPhone 3GS with the older bootrom.  With a tethered jailbreak you need to connect your iOS device to the computer on every reboot. These tools cannot jailbreak iPad 2, so it remains to be seen if the untether jailbreak that is in the works will be able to jailbreak iPad 2 or Apple's new iPhone 4S as both are powered by Apple's A5 chip. i0n1c tweeted: As far as I know iOS 5 untether is covered by other people already. Guess who :P We're guessing that Esser is referring to the iPhone Dev team. It will be interesting to see how soon the untethered jailbreak will be released after iOS 5's launch on October 12th. For the latest status update on jailbreaking iOS 5, please checkout this post where we have also detailed the various options that you have currently.

Jailbreak iOS 5 GM with Redsn0w 0.9.9b3

Soon after the news of impending release of the much-awaited iOS 5 Gold Master (GM) by Apple, followed the much anticipated confirmation from the iPhone Dev team – as MuscleNerd tweeted that iOS 5 GM jailbreak can be done using the latest version of Redsn0w.

All you need to do to execute this tethered jailbreak is download redsn0w 0.9.9b3 (or up) for Mac or 0.9.9b3a (or up) for Windows; connect your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad to your computer with a USB cable and run the jailbreaking software. Recent reports suggest that Redsn0w should work with all devices that can run iOS 5 excluding Apple’s newest tablet, the iPad 2.

Here is the Step-by-Step Guide to Jailbreak iOS 5 GM

1. Download Redsnow 0.9.9b4 (Windows / Mac)
2. Click the “extras” option and then select “IPSW” to manually point Redsnow to the iOS 5 beta 7 firmware to jailbreak iOS 5 GM.



3.    Go back and then click the option to “Jailbreak”.
4.    Select “Install Cydia” and follow the instructions to enter DFU mode.
5.    Once there Redsn0w will load the limera1n exploit to tether-jailbreak your iOS device on iOS 5 GM.

At the mean time, iOS 5 GM is only available for registered iOS developers. If you haven’t yet tried the iOS 5 GM jailbreak, I’m sure you would definitely like to try it out when Apple launches the version on October 12, 2011. That’s tomorrow!

How to Fix the Quarter Screen Issue

However, as the jailbreaking community enthusiastically awaits the arrival of the D-day, there are certain ‘whispers of impending problems’ with the iOS 5 jailbreak. A jailbreak app called “Activator” has been identified to cause applications to display in a quarter of the iOS 5 loaded iPhone’s screen. The problem aptly connoted the “1/4 Screen” problem reports that when Activator (via Cydia) is installed on a jailbroken iPhone that is running the latest iOS, the App size is found to run at a reduced size, roughly one quarter of the screen.

As of now, the “1/4 Screen” problem is said to have been temporarily fixed; i.e. every time you reboot your iOS device, a repeat of the process is inevitable. Here’s a quick-fix solution:

Open SBSettings > Tap “Power”, and select “Safe Mode” > (Once booted into Safe Mode)
Tap the status bar when it says “Safe Mode”. (This will bring up a prompt)
Tap “Restart” to restart into normal mode > Launch an offending App – the error is expected to be resolved.
Many more developments are anticipated to unfold in the coming days as more iPhone app developers (including jailbreak developers) and users alike update their apps for the upcoming software update.

Have you tried the iOS 5 jailbreak yet? We would love to hear from you.

IOS 5 release date

The much awaited Apple’s “Let’s Talk iPhone” event is over. It was expected that Apple would launch the iPhone 5 and possibly the iPhone 4S, along with plenty more at this event. However, sources revealed that the iPhone 4S had finally been launched by Apple in the event with the announcement of the launch of the iOS 5 launch on October 12th.

Tim Cook, Apple’s new CEO, took to the stage, promising innovations in both software and hardware. He said that though Apple currently had 357 stores in 11 countries, the initial focus would be on new retail stores that have opened in Shanghai and Hong Kong.

With a free update on the iOS 5 launch date which is to be October 12th, he also talked about recapping all the key features. So the new iOS 5 features would include a Newsstand – for accessing magazines and books on a monthly basis in a dedicated app – a new look Camera app with a direct shortcut and more editing features, and notifications at the top of your screen, again for faster access.

Finally Apple announced the launch of the iPhone 4S. This new iPhone 4S was said to have the same look as of the iPhone 4, though it will run with the iPad’s faster A5 chip and claimed 7x faster graphics for video. It will also come with improved battery life, improved antenna, and faster data transfer. The iPhone 4S is said to be twice as fast as the iPhone 4 with respect to downloading. What’s more – the iPhone 4S has 8MP camera, redesigned lens and a new antenna system that will choose the best of two antennas depending on where you are.

iPhone Dev Team Confirms Untethered Jailbreak For iOS 4.3.1 Is ‘Solid’

We had reported couple of days back that iPhone hacking expert Stefan Esser who goes by the Twitter handle i0n1c had figured out a way to jailbreak iOS 4.3.1, which was untethered.

He had also handed over the the untethered iOS 4.3 jailbreak to iPhone Dev team so that they could test it before releasing it to users. MuscleNerd, one of the members of the iPhone Dev team has revealed that the untethered iOS 4.3.1 jailbreak is 'solid'.

MuscleNerd tweeted:

well @i0n1c’s untether is solid! Just working out overall 4.3.x JB issues and Cydia

Though MuscleNerd has not provided an ETA, based on MuscleNerd’s tweet it looks like we won’t have to wait too long for the untethered jailbreak for iOS 4.3.1 for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch.

Sn0wbreeze for Windows and PwnageTool for Mac with custom bundles can already jailbreakiOS 4.3.1. However, they support only a tethered jailbreak, so users have to use iBooty (Windows) or tetheredboot utility (Mac) to boot into jailbroken state if they need to reboot their iOS device.

Update 1:

This untethered jailbreak for iOS 4.3.1 won't support iPad 2 as Apple has patched the jailbreak vulnerability in iOS 4.3.1.

Update 2:

It's not clear whether the untethered jailbreak will support iOS 4.3 or earlier iOS versions.

Facebook Launches New Mobile Website

Facebook has announced that it is rolling out an upgraded version of its mobile website, which it believes will bring the best mobile web experience to mobile devices.

Prior to this, Facebook had two websites: m.facebook.com for less feature-rich mobile devices, while touch.facebook.com was for touch based smartphones like iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch.

Facebook will merging the two websites (into m.facebook.com) to reduce the confusion and to also make it easier to develop and rollout new features.

Lee Byron, Head of Mobile Products at Facebook explains that the problems with their earlier approach:

1. We were limited by the lowest common denominator for each site. We couldn't use JavaScript and had device specific file size limitations on m.facebook.com. Supporting a wide array of touch phones of varying quality on touch.facebook.com limited our ability to use modern CSS and JavaScript APIs.
2. Every time we launched a new feature, we had to build it multiple times across different code bases: once for facebook.com, then again for m.facebook.com, touch.facebook.com, and in native applications as well. Honestly, we weren’t very good at doing this, so certain features were missing on different devices.

By unifying the websites, it will make it easier and faster for Facebook to develop new features. Bryon explains:

This mobile UI framework allows engineers to focus on building their product and not on supporting device edge cases. Rather than directly writing HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, our product engineers write XHP and use these mobile components to build new features.

So when users of smartphones like iPhone visit the new m.facebook.com website, they will see the rich touch friendly user interface while users with feature phones will see the less feature rich website.

Facebook’s native iPhone app is one of the most popular apps in the App Store but Facebook is yet to release an iPad app. It remains to be seen if Facebook will ditch its native iPhone app and focus on developing new features for the mobile web app.

You can checkout the new Facebook website for mobile by pointing your iDevice to m.facebook.com. Please note that Facebook has mentioned that the new m.facebook.com will be rolled out to everyone in the next few weeks.

Do you prefer a native iPhone app or the iPhone web app for Facebook? Please share your views in the comments below.
