Untethered iOS 4.3.1 Jailbreak released with PwnageTool and redsn0w for Windows & Mac

Dev Team has finally announced the Untethered Jailbreak tool for iOS devices running 4.3.1 firmware. The iOS 4.3.1 untethered jailbreak can be done using PwnageTool or redsn0w, available for all iOS devices running 4.3.1 except the iPad2. redsn0w is available both for Windows and Mac OS X, while PwnageTool is available for OS X only.

The 4.3.1 untether works on all devices that actually support 4.3.1 except for the iPad2:

• iPhone3GS
• iPhone4 (GSM)
• iPod touch 3G
• iPod touch 4G
• iPad1
• AppleTV 2G (PwnageTool only for now)

The reason the untether won’t work as-is on the iPad2 is that it requires a bootrom or iBoot-level exploit to install, and the iPad2 is not susceptible to either the limera1n or SHAtter bootrom exploits.

iPhone Dev Team Confirms Untethered iOS 4.3.1 Jailbreak Exploit is ‘Solid’, Quashes Spy Rumors

Two interesting little jailbreak tidbits to come out of hacker MuscleNerd’s Twitter account today with news of an untethered 4.3.1 jailbreak as well as his thoughts on rumors of a spy in the jailbreak camp.

First up we have confirmation from the big man that hacker i0n1c’s untethered 4.3.x jailbreak appears to be ‘solid’ with just a few final kinks to work out.

Hopefully this news means we won’t have to wait too long to jailbreak our updated iDevices without the fear associated with tethered hacks.

MuscleNerd also quashed rumors that there was a spy in the camp, with information being leaked to Apple to help the Cupertino company fix the SHAtter exploit in iOS 4.3, and more recently iPad 2 jailbreak exploit on iOS 4.3.1.


According to MuscleNerd’s Twitter and forum postings, the Dev Team wasn’t actually in on what Comex was working on when SHAtter was in the works, so they couldn’t have leaked anything even if they wanted to.

That solves that then!

Now, less tweeting and more hacking please Mr MuscleNerd!

Speck CandyShell Card iPhone 4 case replaces wallet

Don’t you just get annoyed at how fat your wallet can get when it’s loaded with credit cards, and identification cards? Well, Speck has come up with an iPhone 4 case to address that problem. Called the Speck CandyShell Card, this specially designed case serves a dual purpose of protecting your iPhone and storing your important cards that you need to bring around with you at all times. Be it 3DS AR cards or your credit cards, this case stores them all. Well maybe not all – it is thick enough to hold up to three credit cards. For those times when all you need is your ID and debit/credit card, you can fold some loose change to fit into the case and leave home without your wallet. However, just make sure your cards can’t be affected by magnets, because if they are, it’s not a great idea to put them next to your phone. The Speck CandyShell Card is available now for $39.95.
