New Seas0nPass Jailbreak Utility for the Apple TV




FireCore has announced Seas0nPass, a new jailbreak tool designed specifically for the Apple TV.

Seas0nPass was created exclusively for the AppleTV user, as previously no AppleTV specific jailbreak tools were available. Seas0nPass allows you to easily create custom AppleTV IPSW files and restore them in iTunes (similar to the existing Pwnage Tool app). Also included is a simple 'tethered boot' option which aids in using newer AppleTV firmwares when an 'un-tethered' jailbreak is not yet available.

What can I do with Seas0nPass?
● Jailbreak the AppleTV with the latest 4.1.1 (iOS 4.2.1) software.
● Easily perform a 'tethered boot' (when necessary).

Seas0nPass is available as a free download and we will be posting a tutorial on how to use it shortly.

Geohot Registers Rubyra1n for Next Jailbreak?




Domain registration records reveal that Geohot has registered the domain Rubyra1n.com, according to thetechjournal.

According to Whois records, Blackra1n, Limera1n & Rubyra1n are registered under George Hotz.It looks like, Geohot registered Limera1n & Rubyra1n back in March, 2010. With that said, don’t expect a Rubyra1n Jailbreak anytime soon. Because, Limera1n exploit is capable of jailbreaking all current iOS Device. So, it seems, GeoHot is going to use Rubyra1n, for the Next Gen iPad [iPad 2] / Next Gen iPhone [iPhone 5 / CDMA iPhone].

The limera1n domain was discovered in April and did end up being used for an important jailbreak release. Hopefully, rubyra1n has an exciting future as well. Currently, the domain is parked with GoDaddy.

iPhone Dev-Team Releases 'Backup 'Plan' Untethered Jailbreak




The iPhone Dev-Team has released a beta of their 'backup plan' untethered jailbreak. Currently the beta is only for Mac users and is limited to iPhone4, iPad, and iPod touch 4G.

Important Points:
● This is a beta tester program. Things can go very wrong, so please don’t even consider testing if you have pictures or other media on your device that you haven’t backed up!
● For the same reason, please don’t participate if you rely on the ultrasn0w carrier unlock. Wait for the final version!
● Until we fix some sandbox issues with bluetooth, the bluetooth functionality is disabled.
● This very first beta1 is limited to iPhone4, iPad, and iPod touch 4G.
● You must already have the usbmuxd software installed and running on your Mac.

You can download the updated version of RedSn0w here. We will be posting our tutorial shortly!

Comex May Not Complete Untethered Jailbreak By Christmas




Comex has tweeted saying that he may not be able to complete his untethering of the current jailbreak by Christmas.

I think I'm going to miss my Christmas deadline...

On Tuesday the iPhone Dev-Team announced that their 'backup plan' untethered jailbreak is nearly ready and will not require a restore of your device.

Comex's untether is more extensible and should not require access to the developer only 4.2b3 IPSW; thus, it's suggested that users wait for his.

The SHAtter Jailbreak Has Been Leaked




The SHAtter jailbreak which was being saved for the next iPhone update has been leaked, according to tweets by MuscleNerd and p0sixninja.

P0sixninja is publicly accusing MuscleNerd of leaking the exploit; however, MuscleNerd states this is not the case and would be illogical for him to leak the exploit since he needs the jailbreak to perform an unlock for the next device. He also notes that there were 15 others in the room when the code was posted by pod2g.

Unfortunately, this likely means Apple will block the exploit by the time any new iDevices are released.

The exploit (and payload) was developed by @pod2g a few months after @p0sixninja discovered the crash. You can watch the jailbreak demonstrated below.

Also of interest, p0sixninja says that an untethered bootrom exploit is still on the way.
