Jailbreak iPhone 4 Untethered On iOS 5.1 Thanks To Pod2g

This really is what everyone in the jailbreaking community has been waiting for and today via Twitter and update from Pod2g has revealed that he has managed to jailbreak his iPhone 4 untethered on iOS 5.1. Towards the end of 2011 you will remember that iOS users were treated to two great jailbreaks in the form of Corona for A4 devices and Absinthe for the dual core iPad 2 and iPhone 4S devices. Normally when Apple releases an update and a new device most of the Dev Teams have to go back to the drawing board and begin picking holes in the iOS firmware again. Pod2g has been very busy lately and he discovered two significant vulnerabilities and has been putting this information to good use by jailbreaking his iOS 5.1 iPhone 4 fully untethered. This was revealed on his Twitter account today. No other details have been released and no screenshots have as yet been provided. All we have is his Twitter announcement so we have to wait for further word from the man himself on when this new untethered jailbreak for iPhone 4 will be available. We are really excited though and we believe that all devices should have an untethered jailbreak so that all iOS users can reap the benefits of the apps and tweaks being made available through the Cydia store. If you have an A4 such as the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS etc you can jailbreak it now using Redsn0w or Sn0wbreeze for a tethered jailbreak on iOS 5.1. If on the other hand you are the owner of a new A5 and A5X device such as the iPhone 4S, iPad 2 and the new iPad you will have to wait until this new tool by Pod2g has been released.
