Jailbreak iOS 9 and 9.0 Update, Apple Releases iOS 9 to the Public - iOS 9: a new firmware, a big one - in fact, iOS 9.0 is the most substantial iOS update since 8.0’s introduction! Today, Apple released iOS 9 to the general public, which (according to the company) “brings you refinements at every level,” including new ‘Proactive’ search features, a News app, split-screen multitasking for iPads and improvements to Siri, battery life, performance, the multitasking app switcher and a number of other areas. However, before you jump the gun on updating, let’s talk jailbreaking, as that’s undeniably what the majority of our readers care about. Unfortunately like its predecessor 8.4.1, iOS 9 remains un-jailbreakable by the masses. In other words, if you were to perform an update on your iPhone, iPad or iPod to iOS 9.0, you wouldn’t be able to utilize the current TaiG jailbreak tool to…
Latest iOS Jailbreak Status: iOS 9 Jailbreak Achieved (Update Here)!
Pangu Achieves Jailbreak on iOS 8.4.1 - Detailed Jailbreak Update
Pangu Jailbreaks iOS 8.4.1 Untethered at HackPwn 2015 - Last week, Apple released iOS 8.4.1 to the public, effectively patching the latest TaiG Untethered iOS 8.4 jailbreak utility. However, unlike iOS 8.1.3 (being the last jailbreak-patching firmware), iOS 8.4.1’s impact on jailbreaking extends far beyond the latest jailbreak. When Apple issued 8.4.1 the company did so with security at the forefront of their intentions - e.g. iOS 8.4.1 closed not only vulnerabilities exploited by TaiG for 8.4, but also several utilized by former Pangu and evasi0n jailbreak tools that the company left unattended until now. In other words, iOS 8.4.1 was, and is, a massive threat to jailbreakers. However, earlier today Pangu (the group behind both the iOS 7.1.x and iOS 8.1 jailbreak utilities by the same name) demonstrated that the group has achieved a new untethered jailbreak on iOS 8.4.1 just over a week after the devastating firmware’s release…
Apple Releases iOS 8.4.1, Can I Jailbreak 8.4.1 Untethered with TaiG?
iOS 8.4.1 Released, is it Possible to Jailbreak iOS 8.4.1 and Should I Update? - Today, following approximately one month of developer beta testing, Apple released iOS 8.4.1 to the general public. iOS 8.4.1, being the first general iOS release since the company issued iOS 8.4 to introduce Apple Music, is a rather unfortunate release for jailbreakers, as it patches the Untethered TaiG iOS 8.4 jailbreak that was released at the end of June. With a build number of 12H321, iOS 8.4.1 is available for immediate download either as an OTA software update in the Settings app or via the traditional iTunes method. However, those of you who are currently jailbroken on iOS 8.4 or earlier should avoid the new firmware release at all costs. The latest iOS 8.4.1 firmware is an incredibly minor release and, therefore, knowing that iOS 8.4.1 won’t introduce any noticeable features, updating to iOS 8.4.1…
8.4.1 Beta 2 Released, Will TaiG Jailbreak iOS 8.4.1 Upon Release?
iOS 8.4.1 beta 2 Released by Apple, will TaiG Jailbreak iOS 8.4.1 Untethered? - Today, without any prior indication, roughly two weeks and two days following its initial seed, Apple issued iOS 8.4.1 beta 2 for developers. iOS 8.4.1, being the firmware that’s expected to patch the TaiG jailbreak (though a miracle could still happen - see video below for details), is an extremely minor update likely featuring bug fixes and optimizations. Currently, those who update to the beta seed from a jailbroken device on iOS 8.4 will forfeit their Untethered TaiG 8.4 jailbreak, as the latest Untethered utility isn’t compatible with the beta firmware, regardless of whether Apple closed TaiG’s exploits in 8.4.1 beta 2. As of now, any release timeframe would be based on conjecture and speculation, though seeing as the firmware appears as though it’s a very minor update, we likely won’t see an iOS 8.4.1 beta…
iOS 8.4 Released, TaiG to Jailbreak 8.4 with Update?
Apple Releases iOS 8.4, Can I Jailbreak 8.4 Untethered, TaiG’s Update? - Today, in an expected (and previously announced when confirming Apple Music) release, Apple issued iOS 8.4 to the general public. Currently, unlike its predecessor, iOS 8.4 cannot be jailbroken right now by way of TaiG in its current state. Furthermore, Apple’s latest iteration of iOS is available in two flavors: as an OTA (short for over-the-air) update and as a traditional update via iTunes, which is a method most veteran iOS users can appreciate (it’s also the only route for ensuring a successful jailbreak on a jailbreakable firmware). However, it’s of paramount importance that current iOS 8 through 8.3 jailbreak users avoid installing the latest update at all costs! In light of iOS 8.4’s planned release to accommodate Apple Music, it’s possible that the minor update doesn’t address the vulnerabilities exploited by TaiG in their iOS 8.3 jailbreak…
Jailbreak iOS 8.3 Untethered TaiG 2.1.3 Tutorial: iPhone, iPod and iPad [Updated]
iOS 8.3 Jailbreak TaiG Untethered 2.1.3 Tutorial, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air 2, iPod touch and More - Very early this morning, world renowned hacking group TaiG released an all new jailbreak 8.3 untethered solution (the very same group who created the previous iOS 8 through 8.1.2 and iOS 8.2 betas 1 and 2 jailbreak utility). The latest update to the TaiG jailbreak, being TaiG 2.0 (which has now been updated to version 2.1.3) for iOS 8, is capable of successfully delivering a hassle-free Untethered jailbreak on iOS 8.3 for all iPhone, iPod touch and iPad models. This release, like its processor, came out of the blue and certainly wasn’t expected - in fact, TaiG confirmed in a recent interview that they had no plans on releasing another iOS 8 jailbreak for 8.3; it’s a good thing they employed the use of this tactic to divert attention. We now have…
iOS 8.3 Jailbreak After iOS 8.4’s Release Date And New 0Day 8.4 Jailbreak Exploit?
Jailbreak iOS 8.3 After iOS 8.4’s Release Date, Plus New 0day Jailbreak 8.4 Exploit? - With Apple’s annual World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC for short) rapidly approaching, a number of questions are undoubtedly surging through jailbreakers’ minds as each day passes without a new solution to jailbreak iOS 8.3, the current public firmware. However, as we’ve outlined a number of times throughout our articles, iOS 8.3 won’t necessarily be the target of the next jailbreak utility, instead it will be jailbroken by extension with the release of a new tool capable of jailbreaking iOS 8.4 (the successor to iOS 8.3). Having grasped that concept, when will iOS 8.4 make its grand appearance in the form of a public release? That’s a great question - with the latest iOS 8.4 beta firmware (being 8.4 beta 3) having been seeded to developers over three weeks ago on May 11th, 2015, we won’t…
Pangu Testing iOS 8.3 Jailbreak Exploits - New Pangu Jailbreak Possible?
New Pangu Jailbreak iOS 8.3 Exploits, Jailbreak Development - Although the public awaits a new solution to jailbreak iOS 8.3, the latest public firmware as of this past Wednesday’s release, we have a ray of sunshine in an otherwise murky and uncertain time. In spite of the fact that a new jailbreak for 8.3 and iOS 8.2 is indeed in the works by TaiG, we have absolutely no official ETA, or even a timeframe for that matter. However, that being said, we mustn’t forget those who preceded TaiG - we have confirmation that Pangu may in fact be developing a similar iOS 8.3 jailbreak solution. Apple has undoubtedly picked up the company’s pace in mobile software development for iOS 8, succeeding the entire range of iOS 7 releases merely halfway through iOS 8’s lifecycle, and the same can also be said for jailbreak development, though not nearly as fast. In…
Official TaiG Jailbreak 8.2 Comment Explained: iOS 8.2 Jailbreak Possibility
Official TaiG Jailbreak 8.2 Comment Examined: The iOS 8.2 Jailbreak - Today, as we move forward past MSS 2015, the number one topic on the majority of our readers’ minds is one pertaining to the next jailbreak, particularly an untethered iOS 8.2 jailbreak solution. While many put their faith in rumors that MSS would yield a new, and updated, iteration of TaiG capable of jailbreaking iOS 8.2, the staff of Evasi0n Jailbreak immediately dispelled said rumors with a number of posts based on our years of insider expertise. In the end, our predictions became reality - while the public didn’t receive a jailbreak for iOS 8.2, we instead have jailbreak developers more apt to tackle new firmware releases, such as iOS 8.3 and, by extension, 8.2. However, we now have additional word from the TaiG group that echoes what we’ve said concerning iOS 8.2 and its corresponding future jailbreak these past few weeks….
iOS 8.2 Semi Jailbreak Works, Right? Wrong, Jailbreak Scams Identified!
Semi Jailbreak iOS 8.2 Works, Right? Nope, Jailbreak Scams Identified! - Today, as the public eagerly awaits MSS 2015 (the Mobile Security Summit), which will be held by TaiG on March 27th in Beijing, China, numerous rumors, speculation and pure conjecture pertaining to a new iOS 8.2 jailbreak have been cluttering the blogosphere. Numerous individuals, and sources, claim that TaiG will use the summit as a platform to launch the team’s next jailbreak utility, which will liberate those who have been locked out of jailbreaking since iOS 8.1.3’s release and, in turn, patch the last Untethered jailbreak tool. Furthermore, in the wake of the devastation iOS 8.1.3 left, at least in terms of its aforementioned patching of TaiG, numerous (successful) scams have come into fruition that attempt to trick helpless jailbreakers into believing they’re installing Cydia, and they often succeed. However, in reality, said users fall victim to the potential…
