The dream team of hackers led by pod2g that has been working intensely for days to break the defenses of the A5 processor of iPhone 4S and iPad 2 is on the verge of signing their victory. This is confirmed by the person in charge of the iOS 5.0.1 Untethered Jailbreak, who through his blog has updated his followers informing that "in a matter of days" they will be able to make available to users the tools to unlock the iPhone 4S and iPad 2.
As you may remember, this hacker already reported a few weeks ago of his success in submitting the latest version of Apple's operating system for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch so that he could fall before the practice of unlocking that we know as Jailbreak -in his Untethered mode, which allows us to restart or turn off the terminal without fear that the effects will be reversed or, even worse, that we will have to resort to the assistance of additional software to start the device again.
However, from the beginning, there have been many problems to be able to put the A5 processor on the waist, which equips a system that makes it extremely difficult to execute the Untethered Jailbreak. In fact, before the launch of the iPhone 4S, the security of the iPad 2 had only been breached once for the purpose of applying the system unlock. It was then necessary to do it through the web route provided by the JailbreakMe online application.
At the moment , the team of developers and specialists in this matter that pod2g announced earlier this month cannot assess a specific date for the publication of the effective tools that make it possible to run the iOS 5.0.1 Untethered Jailbreak on iPhone 4S and iPad 2, although the hacker himself ensures that it will be "as soon as possible", since "they are really tired.
Supposedly, it would be this week when the necessary applications to apply assisted Jailbreak to the phone or tablet were posted on the Chronic Dev Team website -the previous editions are compatible with this process-, although at the moment the date is still not specified concrete.
