A hacker, nicknamed Pod2G, reported on Twitter a few days ago that he managed to find an exploit that allows an untethered jailbreak on iPhone 3GS/4, iPod touch 3G/4G and iPad 1. But he also mentioned that he cannot successfully jailbreak the latest iPhone 4S. The main problem was the A5 dual-core processor's cache memory, which was giving it significant problems.
However, Pod2G's statement on his blog yesterday was more optimistic:
“OK, I solved it, A5 processor cache, no more problem. This was due to the fact that the untethered jailbreak is done via a single processor thread, and as a result, with a multi-core processor, all dcaches and icaches in the places of strategic processes that caused the crash were emptied. I did over a hundred tests before I found the key. It was a strain on the nerves.'
Although a bug was found, the jailbreak was on iPhone 4S still nestable. Well, thanks to Saurik, the creator of Cydia, it was supposedly solved. Officially, Pod2G reported on their blog:
"Today I spoke with Saurikom about the launchd boot system and he found the one missing piece of the puzzle that ensures a perfectly stable jailbreak. It is definitely one of the best iOS guru. Thank you for being a saurik!'
The jailbreak coming from Pod2G is probably based on either a bug in one of the applications or the kernel. It follows that if it is possible to convert it to iPhone 4S, so it shouldn't be a problem on iPad 2 either. Anyway, it looks very real, everything just depends on the progress of the tests, if they are successful we can wait until the end of the year for untethered jailbreak for all iZariadenia.

I'm solving a different problem. I have system 3 with JailB redsn2w on my iPhone 4.3.2GS and iPad 0. And I can't update the system in any way. iOs 5. I don't know what to do with it.
Have you tried DFU mode?
Pepa, I had the same problem, I solved it by uploading 4.3.2 new to both without jailbreak and then I updated it helped on iphone 4 and ipad, the first step was the same, but the update only took place if I downloaded it iOS 5 separately and uploaded via shift+restore that helped
Quite a good translation, but the author is wrong about one thing. The main reason why we are waiting for the release of untethered jb pro iOS 5 is waiting for Apple when it releases iOS 5.1. Revealing userland exploid on 5.01 would be a huge mistake that people around the dev team never make ;)
POORNESS over this variaI was thinking about it, but Pod2G has not officially commented or is still waiting for it iOS 5.1 or it is hindered by tests, only he and his closest colleagues know that... :-) that's why I didn't want to involve the readers if the jailbreak was released before the launch iOS 5.1, but I personally hope that they will keep it and release it after the update ;-)
Of course, it will be released after the update. But there is varianta that for some reason this exploid will be in iOS 5.1 fixed. In the past, one exploide was already lost :(
This is one of the risks that can affect the release of JB... and so it is still quite questionable when it will be released ;-)
…hmm what jailbreak..? I went through it myself on 3G…but it was worse than better, it clearly added a few features but the phone sometimes went crazy…now on 4S with iOS 5 makes no sense..it has everything I need..I would be interested in what percentage of people in the world and how many in our country have it. Because let's face it, most people have it so they don't have to pay for apps... :(
Pepa: I think you updated the baseband. You have to download the custom with baseband 6.15 and upload it there. "use tinyumbrella for file hosts"
And what is JB good for today?
I really don't understand JB these days... When I had my first one almost 4,5 years ago iPhone, so of course it was the only option to turn a blocked phone into a functional iCajk with a CZ SIM card, but today? We have everything we wanted, a CZ account, music purchases, iTunes Match. I don't understand it. Everything works as it should. Besides, it's FREE...
Lufy86> Not everyone uses it iPhone at the user level. Only with JB can you look inside the system and change the system settings so that it suits the owner. This is not about ZADARA at all.
... and otherwise, just like JB, many things have changed and found use in new versions iOS
Without Jailbreak from iPhone cannot make AP or wifi Router. Hotspot in iOS is a useless piece of junk.
Jailbreak/Appsync is not about apps being free, but about being able to try the app out and only pay when I know it's worth the money. (don't drag the app back here - it's not the same thing)
