Right about now the greenpois0n iOS 4.1 jailbreak download was supposed to be released, but unfortunately it wasn’t. The Chronic Dev Team decided to save the SHAtter exploit for a future jailbreak and implement another exploit in the greenpois0n jailbreak tool. The reason for this is because another iPhone hacker, Geohot, released his own jailbreak called limera1n which used a different exploit. If Chronic Dev Team released greenpois0n now then Apple can easily patch both exploits and Apple will easily win the cat and mouse game. Thankfully Chronic Dev Team decided to play it safe and now they are working to get greenpois0n out ASAP.
On the bright side, the limera1n jailbreak is very easy to use and works with iPhone 3GS 4.1/4.0/4.0.2/4.0, iPhone 4 4.1/4.0/4.0.2/4.0, iPod touch 3G 4.1/4.0/4.0.2/4.0, iPod touch 4G 4.1/4.0/4.0.2/4.0, and iPad 3.2.2 hardware. Unlike greenpois0n which only supported 4th generation devices on 4.1. If Apple doesn’t fix the limera1n exploit then it can work on 4.2 and future firmware as well.
I know a lot of you will be disappointed about greenpois0n, but try the limera1n download and you’ll see it’s really easy to use and can jailbreak a lot more devices than greenpois0n. limera1n is still in it’s 4th beta though so it may have some bugs for certain devices (though I didn’t experience any on my iPad or iPhone 3GS). If for some reason limera1n doesn’t work for you, and you want greenpois0n, then Subscribe to QuickPWN by Email and you’ll receive an e-mail notification once greenpois0n download links are up on the greenpois0n download page. |
