Download Redsn0w 0.9.10 b8b – Windows / Mac

Published on May 6, 2012 by in iPhone

After releasing iPhone 4S / 4 unlock using SAM, the Dev-team released Redsn0w 0.9.10b8 to backup the unlock files for ever and keep it away from Apple hands. Few minutes ago the iPhone dev-team has released Redsn0w 0.9.10 b8b. This new version of Redsn0w has been updated to fix couple of bugs.

 

“The 0.9.10b8b update to redsn0w makes the zip files more compatible with the native Windows explorer (which doesn’t like leading slashes in the filenames).”

Definitely, now you are asking about 5.1 untethered jailbreak for A4 / A5 devices. All Pod2g latest tweets make me feel that releasing it became imminent, for more details head over this link.

Pod2g Has Managed To Jailbreak iPhone 4 Untethered On iOS 5.1

Published on May 4, 2012 by in iPhone

In a day which has been dominated by the announcement of the Samsung Galaxy S III, a little jailbreak update has just come in via Twitter. Pod2g, one of the most influential members of the Cydia community, has revealed that he today managed to jailbreak his iPhone 4 untethered on iOS 5.1.

During the last couple of weeks of 2011, and subsequently the first few weeks of this year, iOS users were treated to two fantastic jailbreaks in the form of Corona – which catered to the older, A4 devices – and Absinthe, which followed on with an untethered solution for the dual-core iPad 2 and iPhone 4S devices.

Jailbreak 5.1 iPhone 4, 3GS, iPad, iPod Touch 4G, 3G

Published on May 4, 2012 by in iPhone

iPhone Dev-team has just released redsn0w 0.9.10b6 to jailbreak 5.1 iPhone 4, 3GS, iPad 1, iPod Touch 4G, 3G (tethered jailbreak). Now you can download redsnow 0.9.10b6 from the below download links and follow our guide to jailbreak your iPhone 4, 3GS, iPod touch 4G, 3G and iPad 1.

Important Notes:

  • This is a *tethered* 5.1 jailbreak for non-A5 devices.  You’ll need to use redsn0w to “Just Boot” your device every time it power cycles, otherwise jailbreak apps won’t work (neither will Safari).
  • If you use ultrasn0w for your carrier unlock, be sure to use a custom IPSW to get to 5.1 first!  Don’t ever restore to a stock Apple IPSW!  Use redsn0w’s “Custom IPSW” button to create a NO_BB_* version of the 5.1 IPSW and restore to that instead of the stock one.  (That option is available only to 3GS and iPhone4-GSM owners.)  ultrasn0w itself will be updated for 5.1 in the next few days (same baseband support, not 5.1’s baseband).
  • If you’re lucky enough to have an old-bootrom 3GS, this jailbreak is actually untethered (redsn0w will figure that part out automatically).
  • While we were at it, we added @pod2g’s steaks4uce exploit to support MC models of the iPod touch 2G (whose last firmware was 4.2.1).  So now redsn0w will auto-detect and jailbreak all versions of that older device.

Boot iOS 5.1 Tethered With iBooty 2.3

Published on May 4, 2012 by in Apple Tips, iPad, iPhone, Jilbreakers

iOS 5.1 for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch has been available for quite some time now. At this time, only a tethered jailbreak for A4 based devices is available right now, that too in a tethered state. So devices jailbroken will have to be booted tethered. Here’s how to boot iOS 5.1 iPhone, iPad and iPod touch tethered using iBooty 2.3.

iOS 5.1 tethered jailbreak is only supported by iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPod touch 3G, iPod touch 4G and the original iPad. This jailbreak is not compatible with iPad 2, New iPad or the iPhone 4S. The A5 or A5X based devices are not supported by this.

1. Download iBooty 2.3 for your computer

2. Once downloaded launch iBooty 2.3, connect your device to the computer and select it from the dropdown menu.

3. Click Start.

4. iBooty will now display on screen instructions on how to put your device in DFU mode. Follow these instructions closely to the letter.

5. Once the device is in DFU mode, iBooty will automatically detect it and will run a series of automated steps. Let it do it’s work.

6. When iBooty is finished working it’s magic, it will prompt you with a Done! message. When that comes up, it means that the iPhone, iPad or iPod touch has been successfully booted tethered on iOS 5.1.

That’s it. It’s a very simple step and you shouldn’t face any problems doing it. However if you do, simply leave a comment and seek our expert guidance.

Apple Forcing Users to Make Their Accounts More Secure

Published on April 19, 2012 by in iPhone

The best quality of Apple is that unlike other software companies, they pay extra attention to the security of software and users account. Like recently Apple has released a java update to fix the flash black Trojan on Mac OS X. Now, Apple is forcing users to give security questions to the iTunes account so that they can be more protective. Many users are receiving a pop up to confirm password to ensure the security of iTunes account.

Don’t Login Facebook on Jailbroken iOS Devices And Rooted Android Devices

Published on April 19, 2012 by in Apple Bytes, Apple Tips, iPad, iPhone, Jilbreakers

A new security hole has been found in Facebook’s native mobile applications, as reported by zdnet, that allow hackers to steal personal information for you. This security hole was discovered by an app developer who goes by the name of Gareth Wright, and effects both Android and iOS smartphones. The problem stems from Facebook not encrypting your login credentials, and storing them in a plain text file.

Due to the fact that both Google and Apple restrict access to the filesystem of their smartphones, this is not a problem for those who do not modify the operating system. If you have a Jailbroken or Rooted device however, it means hackers can exploit this vulnerability and steal personal information from you.

This is the official statement from Facebook on the matter:

Facebook’s iOS and Android applications are only intended for use with the manufacture provided operating system, and access tokens are only vulnerable if they have modified their mobile OS (i.e. jailbroken iOS or modded Android) or have granted a malicious actor access to the physical device. We develop and test our application on an unmodified version of mobile operating systems and rely on the native protections as a foundation for development, deployment and security, all of which is compromised on a jailbroken device. As Apple states, ‘unauthorized modification of iOS could allow hackers to steal personal information … or introduce malware or viruses.’ To protect themselves we recommend all users abstain from modifying their mobile OS to prevent any application instability or security issue.s.

For those that are wondering why Facebook doesn’t just use authentication tokens for storing your login information, apparently it wouldn’t do much good because there would need to be a key stored on your device to decrypt. The only viable solution would be to force users to login every time they launch the Facebook application, but this could become tedious.

What are your thoughts on this security vulnerability on Jailbroken/Rooted devices? Does this worry you? Share your responses in the comments section below…

Apple Will Release Tool to Detect and Remove Flashback Trojan

Published on April 19, 2012 by in iPhone

More than 600,000 Macs have been affected by the terrible  Flashback trojan Apple has announced that it will release a tool to detect and remove the Flashback trojan.

—
Apple released a Java update on April 3, 2012 that fixes the Java security flaw for systems running OS X v10.7 and Mac OS X v10.6. By default, your Mac automatically checks for software updates every week, but you can change that setting in Software Update preferences. You can also run Software Update at any time to manually check for the latest updates.

Apple is developing software that will detect and remove the Flashback malware.

In addition to the Java vulnerability, the Flashback malware relies on computer servers hosted by the malware authors to perform many of its critical functions. Apple is working with ISPs worldwide to disable this command and control network.
—

We’ll let you know when the tool is available. Until then you can try this utility to determine if you are infected.

Great News: Exploits for Jailbreak of iOS 5.1 Are Ready

Published on April 19, 2012 by in iPhone

Pod2g has announced that the Chronic Dev-Team now has all the exploits required to release a userland jailbreak of iOS 5.1.

News: we have all exploits required to do a new jailbreak. I’m working on bypassing ASLR at bootup.

Last month Pod2g said that the team only had a few pieces of a userland jailbreak. Now that the team has them all, it will still take some time to put them together in a public ready tool.

Since this is a userland jailbreak, it will be the first publicly available jailbreak of the iPad 3. I0n1c has demonstrated a jailbreak of the new device; however, he’s said he will not release his jailbreak to the public
