In some of the queues that formed a few days ago during the start of sales of the iPad 2 it came to listen to users who said they were eager to unlock (or do them a jailbreak ) the device they were about to acquire. That being the case, we hope they did not update the system to the latest version, iOS 4.3.1, since as we have learned, although it is possible to apply the assisted system that we have cited to the platform on iPhone and iPod Touch, for the moment, it is not available for the new edition of the Apple tablet.
And according discovered by Engadget, the security of all devices equipped with iOS could fall to the latest version of redsn0w, the 0.9.6rc9, which is now available for download and use in Windows and Mac OS X. Of course: for reasons that point to an increase in the security efforts of the new tablet, the iPad 2 is precisely the only device that is left out of the process (which includes, for example, the Apple TV living room system).
From his blog, the team responsible for unlocking assisted systems of devices moving to Apple, the Dev-Team, warn that they are working to discover how to apply successfully jailbreak the iPad 2 based on iOS 4.3.1. However, for the moment they warn their users not to try to carry out the process with any of their tools (either with redsn0w or with ultrasn0w).
Remember that the operation of these applications that help us to break the protections of iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch and Apple TV is based on the connection of the device to the computer, following the instructions that the program gives us on the screen, so that we do not we have to resort to complicated code tweaks or issues like that.
While the guys from Dev-Team are still in their business, looking for a way to develop the application that allows us to install programs not authorized by Apple, as well as access the root of the system and use the alternative App Store, we leave you the links so that, As always, at your own risk, you can jailbreak your device from Windows or Mac.
