After months of hopeless moments , finally theres some good news on iOS 6.0.2 jailbreak status . The popular iOS hacker Planetbeing posted a comment on reddit on the jailbreak progress . He stated that he has sucessfuly jailbroken his iPhone 5 untethered running iOS 6.0.2 .
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.
He isnt willing to release the jailbreak and the reason is because its useless to burn the exploits when the latest iOS firmware is to be released soon .
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.
This is not stuff I want to say over Twitter with 140 characters because I’m afraid of starting some sort of riot, but I like the smaller /r/jailbreakcommunity more.
Its good to hear this good news after so many months of hopeless moments . All we can do now is have patience till Apple releases it latest firmware iOS 6.1 .
