Jailbreak iOS 8.4.1 Untethered Tutorial; TaiG or Pangu, How to Jailbreak 8.4 by Downgrading 8.4.1 Guide - As we progress forward into 2015, a question that’s gnawing at the back of mind of the jailbreak world as a whole is ‘how can I jailbreak iOS 8.4 and iOS 8.4.1?’ Thankfully, as the result of hundreds of hours of hard and dedicated work from TaiG and Saurik, the former of the two firmwares has been jailbroken! Having said that, what about supported devices and jailbreaking 8.4 for the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air 2, iPad mini 3 and older iOS 8-capable devices? The latest version of TaiG does indeed function on all iOS-based devices that’s capable of updated to iOS 8.4 and is able to deliver an untethered jailbreak iOS 8.3 and iOS 8.4 solution. However, what about Apple’s latest iOS 8.4.1 release, how will it affect the future of jailbreaking -…
Latest iOS 8 Jailbreak Status: iOS 8.4.1 Un-Jailbroken (Update Here!)
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…
iOS 8.3 Jailbreak Or iOS 8.4 Jailbreak, TaiG And Pangu’s Difficult Decision
Jailbreak iOS 8.3 or iOS 8.4: TaiG and Pangu’s Difficult Decision - It’s no secret that the latest TaiG jailbreak was patched back in January by Apple’s iOS 8.1.3 firmware. Since then, Apple issued multiple updates, being iOS 8.2 and iOS 8.3, namely to introduce Apple Watch support and revised emoji, respectively. Furthermore, with both of the aforementioned subsequent iOS releases, and with iOS 8.4 having entered its second round of developer beta testing earlier this week, what do we have to look forward to in 2015? Surprisingly, a lot, most prominently a new jailbreak for iOS 8, whether it’s intended to jailbreak iOS 8.3 or 8.4. Interestingly, while iOS 8.4 has already been jailbroken by i0n1c, as we stated in our dedicated coverage on the topic, don’t expect a release from the hacker who only formerly contributed to the jailbreak community - instead, we must turn toward TaiG and…
Prepare For iOS 8.3 Jailbreak And Apple Watch, Proper 8.3 Update Guide
How to Update for Future iOS 8.3 Jailbreak and Apple Watch - Today, a sizable portion of iPhone jailbreakers find that the moment of reckoning is upon them in light of the Apple Watch’s official release in 9 countries. However, prior to being able to fully use the device, one must update their iPhone 5 or higher (including the 5c, 5c, and the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus) to at least iOS 8.2, if not the current iOS 8.3 public firmware. That poses serious complications for those currently jailbroken on either > iOS 8.1.2 or iOS 8.2 betas 1 or 2 (both are jailbreakable, yet neither support the Apple Watch), as the latest TaiG jailbreak was officially patched by Apple with iOS 8.1.3. Having said that, while i0n1c successfully achieved an Untethered iOS 8.4 jailbreak on the first beta version of the firmware, and both Pangu and TaiG are confirmed to…
iOS 8.3 Jailbreak TaiG Tool Expedited By Apple Watch, Will You Update?
TaiG iOS 8.3 Jailbreak Tool Expedited by Apple Watch, Will You Update? - Since iOS 8.1.3’s release in January those who either restore their devices or purchase new devices running said firmware or later have been unable to jailbreak, the same applies to iOS 8.3 (the latest public firmware). While there isn’t a jailbreak iOS 8.3 solution as of writing this article, both TaiG and now, thankfully, Pangu have confirmed the development of a new jailbreak utility, which will inevitably support the latest public firmware. While the public was under the impression that a new jailbreak would present itself prior to April 24th (we’ll explain why we’re referencing the 24th in particular shortly), it doesn’t appear as though it will happen and, as each day passes, the possibility is becoming increasingly less likely. As we’ve stated before, new jailbreak utilities take hundreds of hours to develop, from exploitation discovery to…
Will iOS 9 And WWDC 2015 Affect The Jailbreak For iOS 8.3? Great Update!
iOS 8.3 Jailbreak Affected by iOS 9 and WWDC 2015? - Yesterday, as we’re all patiently (some of us more than others) awaiting a new jailbreak for iOS 8.3 from either TaiG or Pangu, who recently re-entered the jailbreak arena, Apple announced the event that will showcase the future of iOS and OS X: WWDC 2015. During the forthcoming event, which will be held in San Francisco, California at Moscone Center from June 8th to the 12th, Apple will undoubtedly unveil both iOS 9 and OS 10.11 (the next OS X installment) to the world and, in turn, seed the first iOS 9 beta. But what about jailbreaking, will it be affected by iOS 9? In spite of the fact that the TaiG jailbreak was patched by Apple with the release of 8.1.3, followed swiftly by both iOS 8.2 and iOS 8.3, as we’ve stated several times new jailbreak tools are currently…
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…
iOS 8.3 Released, New TaiG iOS 8.3 Jailbreak Solution In The Works
New iOS 8.3 Jailbreak and its Release, TaiG’s Next Untethered Utility - Today, ensuing four beta releases, Apple issued iOS 8.3 to the general public. Although we’re still eagerly awaiting a new jailbreak utility, iOS 8.3 marks an exciting time for jailbreakers the world over - we’ve moved beyond both iOS 8.1.3, the TaiG jailbreak-patching firmware, and iOS 8.2. However, before we delve into jailbreaking, let’s quickly discuss iOS 8.3 as a software update. iOS 8.3, being the third substantial 8.x update, carries a significantly revised build number over its predecessor. As usual, in addition to being available for immediate download via the traditional iTunes Restore method, one could update their device to the firmware using Apple’s built-in over-the-air update utility, which is an option that’s strongly discouraged for prospective jailbreakers as it will undoubtably cause future complications with the forthcoming iOS 8.3 jailbreak. For more on iOS 8.3, the…
TaiG Updates Site, iOS 8.2 Jailbreak For iOS 8.3 Slated And What To Expect
iOS 8.2 Jailbreak for iOS 8.3 Slated and TaiG Update’s The Team’s Site - While the public has yet to receive a new jailbreak solution for iOS 8.2, we’re continually bombarded with questions pertaining to whether users can jailbreak iOS 8.2 and, considering they can’t currently, when they can expect to. Unforunately, although nothing has changed on that front (the latest jailbreak 8.2 overview status can be found on our latest coverage), TaiG updated their site to reflect additional insight of MSS 2015 - the Mobile Security Summit the group hosted in Beijing that a number of key and influential jailbreakers both attended and spoke at. However, it might not be the update those seeking to jailbreak were hoping for. Instead of releasing a jailbreak for iOS 8.2 during MSS, TaiG opted to hold off, waiting for iOS 8.3 and releasing an official statement; though convoluted, it essentially confirms what we’ve stated…
iOS 8.2 Jailbreak Released At MSS? TaiG To Jailbreak 8.3 And Why It’s Good!
Was an iOS 8.2 Jailbreak Released at MSS? TaiG to Target iOS 8.3 - Yesterday, on the 27th (or Thursday night depending on your timezone), MSS 2015 took place in Beijing, China; so what does it mean and was an iOS 8.2 jailbreak released? While our frequent readers will be familiar with the acronym, for those who aren’t, MSS is short for the Mobile Security Summit, which TaiG not only hosted but also presented at. Unsurprisingly, given the summit’s roster of jailbreakers, it was immediately assumed by a large number of individuals to be the unofficial confirmation of a new jailbreak for iOS 8.2 and its release. But did the group issue their new Untethered jailbreak? Recently we published an article highlighting the two routes TaiG could take when approaching the next jailbreak: they could either release the tool for iOS 8.2, or instead opt to wait and jailbreak iOS 8.3…
