We have been doing our best to keep everyone up to date with as much information as we can source regarding an untethered iOS 6 and iOS 6.1 jailbreak for the iPhone 5. So far this jailbreak has failed to materialise but we do know that the dev teams are hard at work. Today we want to tell you about jailbreaking iOS 6.1 beta 2 using Redsn0w 0.9.15b3. We also have to point out that this is a tethered jailbreak solution.
Apple released iOS 6.1 beta 2 to developers earlier this week. We already know that the Sn0wBreeze 2.9.7 tool can jailbreak iOS 6 and iOS 6.0.1 but now iDownloadBlog are reporting that developers can jailbreak iOS 6.1 beta 2 using Redsn0w 0.9.15b3. This is a tethered jailbreak which means that the process has to be repeated every time the device is rebooted.
This is more great news for the Dev Team who are working tirelessly on an untethered jailbreak for the iPhone 5 and hopefully it will give them some more clues and help them to discover even more exploits that Apple haven't yet patched. It seems to be a long wait for the iPhone 5 jailbreak but like all idevice owners we here really do appreciate all the hard work they have been doing. If you follow any of the main jailbreaking crew on Twitter you will be aware that they are doing all they can and they hope like everyone else to have an untethered iPhone 5 jailbreak available for public release as soon as possible.
Until then, we will do our best to keep you updated and bring you the information as we get it. If you have a developer account and you want to use the Redsn0w jailbreak, it is avaialble now.
