Following Apple’s release of iOS 6.1, planetbeing tweeted that the jailbreak developed seems to be working just fine even with the upgraded software. “iOS 6.1 appears to be vulnerable to the exploits we are planning on using” he announced, but “in terms of code, we have two proof of concepts that we need to merge and polish, so we will not be ready to release until that and testing”.
Just last week, reputable jailbreak developer pod2g announced there is a new team working on finding exploits in A5 devices to break iOS 6. The team confirmed there was a lot of progress being made over the past few weeks and explained they are waiting for the release of Apple’s 6.1 beta version. Now that iOs 6.1 rolled out, MuscleNerd was the first evad3rs member to hint at a possible release date.
“Hey, did everyone know the Super Bowl is this Sunday? What will you be doing?/ cc @evad3rs evad3rs.com” reads MuscleNerd’s Twitter post.
iDownloadBlog believes MuscleNerd’s Twitter message is a sure confirmation the untethered jailbreak for iOS 6 on iPhone 5 will be released on Super Bowl Sunday. And they’re not alone, particularly after another Twitter post confirming over 22 iOS devices will be supported by his team’s jailbreak tool.
“@unicornhacker yes, every other 6.1 device variation will be supported. All TWENTY-TWO of them (omg!). Plus atv2 if it’s out in time” the hacker tweeted this Monday.
So, here’s a new dilemma: what do you do? Upgrade now to iOS 6.1 or wait until Super Bowl Sunday to get the jailbreak too?
