Recenta agitatie cauzata de catre Pod2G zilele acestea l-a convins pe Planetbeing, unul dintre hackerii implicati in dezvoltarea solutiilor de jailbreak, sa confirme faptul ca iOS 6.0.2 a fost untethered jailbroken. Desi hackerul are un untethered jailbreak pentru iPhone 5 pe acea versiune a iOS, el nu este deocamdata pregatit pentru lansare si aceasta ar fi, conform lui, ilogica. El spune ca iOS 6.1 urmeaza sa fie lansat in viitorul apropiat, iar lansarea unei solutii de jailbreak acum ar duce la distrugerea catorva exploit-uri importante si exista sanse mari ca solutia de jailbreak sa apara abia impreuna cu iOS 6.1, adica probabil undeva prin martie.
Yeah, I’m not really sure what all the doom and gloom is about. The fact is, I have an untethered iOS 6.0.2 JB running on my iPhone 5 right now. The reasons it’s not released are because 1. releasing it would burn an exploit we want to save for ourselves so we can always get in to look at new firmware and help JB in the future, 2. iOS 6.1 is coming very soon and will likely break a small part of it anyway, there’s no point in sacrificing the many bugs it won’t break. Anyway, where there are 4+ bugs (that it took to get this to work), there’s gotta be one or two more so while jailbreaking is getting harder, reports of its death are highly exaggerated.
Pe scurt, aceeasi poveste cu timpul de dezvoltare lung si asteptarea dupa o noua versiune a iOS. Desi argumentele lor sunt cat se poate de logice, Apple poate bloca intr-o saptamana o solutie de jailbreak pentru iOS 6.1, deci s-ar putea sa ne trezim rapid in exact aceeasi situatie dupa lansarea ei, insa pana una alta trebuie foarte multa rabdare.
