iPad 2 - Jailbreakme.com - Photos

Finally got back home from Vegas on July 16th, had to update to 4.3.3, then jailbroke it.  I was lucky enough to beat the iOS 4.3.4 & iOS 4.3.5 updates which of course broke the jailbreakme.com exploit...  :-(

iTunes 10.3.1 is now available for download

Apple just released iTunes 10.3 during the WWDC on June 6th.  A lot of users were getting "unknown error (-50)" errors while trying to Sync their iOS devices.  iTunes 10.3.1 is suppose to fix that issue.

As far as 10.3 & 10.3.1 being safe for JailBreakers... I am not 100% sure.  Everything I have read on the Internet is pointing to YES, IT'S SAFE... but don't take my word for it until you have heard it straight from either DEV-TEAM or @MuscleNerd.

Finally got with the times & installed iOS 4.3.3...






















Now that it's official, and iCloud beta is out for iOS 4.3.3 via iTunes 10.3... I have been wanting to give it a try.  I have personally been running a JailBroken 3gs on iOS 4.2.1 pretty much ever since it came out.  I have never seen a "GOOD" reason to update; until now.

This was by far the most "TESTING" JB I have ever done.  I started with an iPhone 3gs, JailBroken on iOS 4.2.1.  I tried to use PwnageTool_4.3.3 & PwnageTool_4.3.3.1, with no avail.  YES, I know how to use both, but I just couldn't get it to work right.

I chose PwnageTool.  Not because I only have a Mac to work with, (I have a PC too), but I liked the fact that it allows you to build your own custom Cydia packages that you can build right into your CUSTOM IPSW.  This way you do not have to manually install them one by one later.

What a big waist of time.  The custom Cydia Packages builder seemed to work like a charm... but when I restored my 3gs to the custom firmware, it installed all the packages, but no CYDIA???!!!  Rebooted the device 3 different times....  NO CYDIA.   Launched Winterboard, all it did was close right away....  BULLSHIT!

So long story short, I went back to Winblows 7.  Did a full restore of the OFFICIAL iOS 4.3.3 from Apple.  Then gave redsn0w_win_0.9.6rc16 a try.  It JailBroke my 3GS in about 30, maybe 45 sec.

So long story short, those of you who are worried about trying out redsn0w_win_0.9.6rc16, don't be.  IT WORKS.

BUT BE FORWARNED BEFORE USING ANY JAILBREAK METHOD....

This was taken straight from http://blog.iphone-dev.org/
"ultrasn0w unlockers must stay away from redsn0w!  Use only a custom IPSW to update to 4.3.3, to avoid updating your baseband."

    iCloud beta & iTunes 10.3 are available now!!!

    Here is the fine print that can be found on the bottom of apple.com/icloud.  No need to wait for iOS5 to drop.

    Features are subject to change. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices. See www.apple.com/legal/itunes/ww/ for more information. Some features of iCloud require iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2, or a Mac computer with OS X Lion or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 recommended). Some music features of iCloud are available in beta now in the U.S. only and require iOS 4.3.3 on iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 (GSM model), iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2, or a Mac or PC with iTunes 10.3.

    Apple iOS 4.3.3 DROPS TODAY





    Quote: "The most recent Apple scandal - which is already being called "Locationgate" - has been raging on this and other sites since it was revealed 4/20/2011.  If you're coming to this late: Apple is storing all of your location history on an unencrypted file on your iPhone that is backed up to your computer every time you sync. The reasons for this are unclear, as Apple is giving the world its usual silent treatment. And as suspected, the angry reaction has spread all the way to Capitol Hill."


    On 4/21/2001 = US Lawmakers Take Aim at Apple over iPhone Location Tracking
    On 4/25/2011 =  First Locationgate Federal Suit Filed
    On 4/27/2011 = Apple Admits Locationgate Went Too Far
    On 5/04/2011 = We now see iOS 4.3.3

    This update contains improvements and other bug fixes including:

    • Location database will no longer be backed up to iTunes
    • Location database size will be reduced
    • Battery life will improve
    • When Location Services are turned off, location database will be deleted entirely
    • iPod bug fixes







    JAILBREAK NOTE:
    Stefan Esser

    Confirmed: Apple did not kill the untether vulnerability in 4.3.3 - " Stefan Esser = my iPod 4 is running untethered jailbroken on 4.3.3."   

    The 4.3.3 untethered JB works on all iDevices that actually support iOS 4.3.3 EXCEPT for the iPad 2.
