Apple Releases 8.0.2, Is it Possible to Jailbreak 8.0.2 and Should I Update? - Today, ensuing the short-lived iOS 8.0.1 update, which was recalled shortly following its release, Apple issued 8.0.2 to the general public. Like its predecessor, 8.0.2 effectively patches the Pangu UnTethered Jailbreak - that’s not necessarily a bad thing and we’ll elaborate on the topic shortly. In addition to being available for download immediately via both iOS’ built-in OTA (short for over-the-air) ability, 8.0.2 can be downloaded through iTunes - however, current jailbreak users should certainly avoid the update. In what appears to be a hotfix of sorts, iOS 8.0.2 provides a remedy to the peculiar connectivity and Touch ID issues brought on by iOS 8.0.1. In addition to correcting the blatant usability issues in yesterday’s release, as with 8.0, the vulnerabilities exploited by Pangu to achieve an UnTethered jailbreak remain patched in 8.0.2, making it impossible for any device to jailbreak 8.0.2 UnTethered using the current utility. For more on 8.0.2, as well as the firmware’s jailbreak status, continue reading!
iOS 8.0.2 Released - Is It Possible To, And Can I, Jailbreak 8.0.2 UnTethered?
As far as 8.0.2 is concerned, the update appears to be relatively small, bears a revised build number over 8.0 and is intended to not only improve a number of issues present in 8.0, but also those introduced with 8.0.1.
In addition to correcting complications with HealthKit that prevented developers from integrating their apps with Apple’s new Health app, 8.0.2 also rectifies problems with third-party keyboards, the default Photo Library, SMS and MMS messages, Reachability, videos not playing properly through mobile Safari and more.
Current Jailbreakers Should Avoid 8.0.2, As A Jailbreak Isn’t Available!
While 8.0.2 does provide a remedy to the aforementioned connectivity and Touch ID problems, it’s recommended that all who are currently jailbroken on iOS 7 though 7.1.2 avoid the latest update. Additionally, information on the current iOS 8 jailbreak status can be found in the video from iCrackUriDevice that’s embedded above.
Although it may sound redundant, we cannot stress how important it is for those of you currently jailbroken to avoid iOS 8.0.2 and any subsequent releases, as neither Pangu nor the evad3rs have completed their new UnTethered jailbreak utilities, which they’re working diligently on.
iOS 8.0.2 And Jailbreak Update Summary
To summarize, now that iOS 8.0.2 has been released, the major dev teams (being the evad3rs and Pangu) can go to work applying what they’ve discovered thus far to the new firmware - it’s the ideal time for them to perfect their tools, as they’re also able to fully test said tools on both the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus with their all-new second-generation 64-bit A8 chip.
Having said that, for those of you who own an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad that’s running iOS 7.1 through 7.1.2, it’s still possible to take advantage of the incredible Pangu tool to jailbreak said device, provided you avoid updating to iOS 8.0.2. To jailbreak 7.1.2, we strongly recommend following our in-depth Pangu untethered jailbreak tutorial.

Posters who ask if they can jailbreak their device and iOS version without READING the articles FIRST are annoying. But many could be avoided if the Evaders placed answers to key questions at the top of each day’s article. For example, today I had to read several articles back just to find this: “Current Jailbreakers Should Avoid 8.0.2, As A Jailbreak Isn’t Available!” Fewer readers would ask “stupid” questions about “jailbreakability” of their device if this statement was prominently displayed—and not buried deep in the day’s news.

So pangu can jailbreak ios 8?
NOT POSSIBLE!!! ARE YOU STUPID??? CAN YOU READ ENGLISH???

If you have ios 8 you can update because anyway there is no ios 8 jailbreak so you don’t have nothing to lose
I can’t agree to terms and conditions to update apps or download. Says you have to allow cookies. Did that still no luck. Anybody find a way around this. Firmware 7.1.2
iTunes. Then go to the App Store.
Still on 7.0.6 jail broken (i5s) ????
Not missing out bro! I jailbroke and updated and wish I had my Jailbreak back not this useless update! ????

No! People should wait for the iOS 8 jailbreak patiently and not upgrade.

Yesh I did the same because they will have a jailbreak for iOS 8 just a mtter of time
