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.

Latest iOS Jailbreak Status: iOS 9 Jailbreak Achieved (Update Here)!
Jailbreak iOS 8.3 Demoed By Pangu, Release After iOS 8.4?
Pangu Demonstrates Jailbreak iOS 8.3 Solution at MOSEC, Release After iOS 8.4? - Yesterday, just days before Apple’s World Wide Developers Conference on Monday, Pangu allegedly demonstrated an iOS 8.3 Untethered jailbreak at a security venue! During the aforementioned Apple-hosted conference, the company will unveil not only iOS 9, but also the next installment to OS X, being OS 10.11. However, for some, WWDC may be overshadowed by the jailbreak 8.3 presentation Pangu put on during MOSEC 2015, short for Mobile Security Conference. With Pangu having been all but forgotten by jailbreakers who maintain a short-term mentality when it comes to jailbreak utilities, Pangu is undoubtedly one of the greats. They were not only the first group to jailbreak iOS 8 through 8.1, but prior to that, they rushed to jailbreaker’s rescue last June to issue an iOS 7.1.x jailbreak when we were least expecting it. Is it possible that Pangu may once again save avid…
iOS 9 ‘Rootless’ Security: Jailbreaking Possible After iOS 8.3, iOS 8.4?
Post iOS 8.3 Jailbreak and 8.4, iOS 9’s “Rootless” Security - Yesterday, as the public waits for a new solution to jailbreak iOS 8.3 and the forthcoming iOS 8.4 firmware, interesting reports broke throughout the Apple blogosphere (originating from 9to5Mac) suggesting that iOS 9 will feature a new security initiative from Apple dubbed “Rootless“. While this isn’t the first time we’ve heard tale of increased security measures in the forthcoming iOS 9 release, in fact we recently covered it and dispelled rumors pertaining to the impossibility of jailbreaking post iOS 8.3, we now have additional information (alleged though it may be) as to how Apple may accomplish hindering future jailbreak development. To preface, both TaiG and Pangu have separately confirmed that they’re working on new jailbreak utilities independently (at least from what we know thus far) that are intended for iOS 8, specifically for iOS 8.4. However, as we’ve detailed a…
iOS 8.3 And iOS 8.4 Jailbreak: Where Is It? 8.4’s Release Date After iOS 9 Reveal?
Jailbreak iOS 8.4 and iOS 8.3: Where is it? Release Date After iOS 9 Reveal? - With each passing day, Apple’s annual WWDC (World Wide Developers Conference) draws closer and without a new jailbreak utility for iOS 8.3, the jailbreak community has one burning question in mind: “when will we receive a new jailbreak?” While the question is rightly just, TaiG and Pangu’s decision to wait to issue a new jailbreak utility makes sense from a logical standpoint. Quickly summarizing and reiterating the current jailbreak situation, following Apple’s patch of the Pangu8 jailbreak utility for iOS 8.0 through 8.1 with the release of iOS 8.1.1, TaiG swooped in to save the day and issued a brand new tool dubbed TaiGJBreak that functioned on iOS 8.0 through 8.1.1 and, later, iOS 8.1.2 (once Apple released it and failed to close the jailbreak). However, while Apple allowed the TaiG jailbreak 8.1.2 utility…

Apple Releases iOS 8.4 Beta 3, iOS 8.3 Jailbreak or iOS 8.4 - Today, as the majority of iOS 8 owners await the creation a new utility to liberate their devices and jailbreak iOS 8.3 (the current latest public firmware), Apple seeded the third beta iteration of iOS 8.4, being 8.4 beta 3, to registered developers. The new developer-exclusive release was issued two weeks following its predecessor’s appearance, with today’s version also available to select pre-determined public beta testers. iOS 8.4 beta 3 carries a minor build number revision over its predecessor of 12H4098c, versus 12H4086d, suggesting very slight revisions when compared to the second beta. Aside from the limited public beta program, today’s 8.4 beta 3 firmware can be downloaded through Apple’s dedicated iOS 8 Developer portal or via iOS’ built-in OTA (over-the-air) update feature for devices running either of the two previous 8.4 beta versions. As for jailbreaking…
Apple Released iOS 8.4 Beta 2, Jailbreak iOS 8.3 Or iOS 8.4 More Likely?
iOS 8.4 Beta 2 Released, New Jailbreak iOS 8.3 or iOS 8.4 Tool More Likely? - Today, swiftly following last Friday’s official release of the all-new Apple Watch, the company seeded the second beta iteration of iOS 8.4 to those enrolled in the official iOS developer program for the purpose of testing the next substantial iOS 8 update prior to its inevitable public release. The new iOS 8.4 beta 2 seed comes a mere two weeks following its predecessor’s release, with Apple having redirected their attention last week to the new Watch and its launch. Today’s beta carries a slightly revised build number of 12H4086d, versus the 12H4074d build number of 8.4 beta 1, suggesting only extremely minor revisions.

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…
