Jailbreak

This past weekend marked the release of a new web-based jailbreak for iOS devices that offered users a free and extremely simple method to jailbreak their iDevices. Some will remember the website JailbreakMe.com from the 2007 days of iPhone. Well, JailbreakMe.com was released again this weekend for iOS 3.2 and higher devices. The new jailbreak...

I've been testing FaceTime on my iPhone 4 and I must say it's a pretty sweet feature. It's literally bringing back chatting with humans in real life, instead of texting, tweeting, emailing, etc (that is for those who like to spend time in a dark basement in the summer). With the return of the easiest...

Have you tried FaceTime yet on your iPhone 4? One of the coolest features of FaceTime is that it does not use your voice minutes, since the requirement is WiFi. You can also FaceTime your contacts by tapping the FaceTime icon in their contact profile. This saves you the initial call cost if you're going...

Whoa. This brings back some amazing memories. For those who used the original iPhone and remember using the jailbreak website JailbreakMe.com--it's back! I used JailbreakMe.com to jailbreak my iPhone on 1.1.1 in December of 2007 (holy that was a long time ago!). The site has been updated by @comex to jailbreak your iPhone 4/3GS/3G on...

**Update 1: Apple has officially responded to this via Cult of Mac: “Apple’s goal has always been to insure that our customers have a great experience with their iPhone and we know that jailbreaking can severely degrade the experience. As we’ve said before, the vast majority of customers do not jailbreak their iPhones as this...

For those that want to ensure a trouble-free jailbreak in the future, it is always a good idea to have your device SHSH blobs saved for the current firmware. If you are running iOS 4.0, then now is a good time to save your SHSH blobs before the iOS 4.1 update. To do so, you...

Well, Geohot has done it again, although with a lot less enthusiasm, this time. Geohot (aka George Hotz) was the original iPhone unlocker and was all over mainstream media, for being able to hack the original iPhone to run on T-Mobile, instead of AT&T. Back then it was a pretty messy hardware hack that had...

For all those who have an iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4 and have been waiting for a successful jailbreak/unlock, your patience is about to pay off. Today, Musclenerd, a member of the iPhone Dev Team, sent out a tweet that brings hope to many who have been unable to jailbreak their iPhone 3GS/4 because of...

"Well, that didn't take long", is something I have found myself saying after each iPhone software and hardware release, for the past year or so. It seems the current iPhone hackers know right where to look, when trying to find new exploits in the latest firmware and hardware. comex, of the The iPhone Dev Team, and...

The iPhone Dev Team released PwnageTool 4.01 the day after iOS 4 was released. This Mac-only jailbreak tool works for the iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS (old bootrom), and iPod Touch 2G by creating a custom firmware to install. What about Windows users wanting to jailbreak iOS 4 with the same devices? The answer is with...

Update 1: PwnageTool updated to v4.01. This fixes an issue with iBooks 1.1. You will need to restore with another custom firmware. The iPhone Dev Team does it again. In less than 24 hours after the release of iOS 4.0 by Apple, PwnageTool 4.0 has been released to jailbreak the latest iOS. With recent updated...

Earlier we reported about the iPhone Dev Team releasing an update to their iPhone unlock, ultrasn0w via Cydia. This latest update will unlock all iPhone basebands. Great news for people looking to travel with their iPhones right (the iPhone 4 will be sold unlocked from Apple Store in Canada!)? redsn0w beta Updated to "hacktivate" and...
