Jailbreak iOS 9 Untethered Update; TaiG, iH8sn0w, Pangu or K33n, How to Jailbreak iOS 9.0 following Release? - Today, ensuing iOS 9’s release, let’s discuss the future of jailbreaking, particularly where iOS 9.0.2 is concerned. In spite of the latest TaiG jailbreak for iOS 8.4 having been patched by Apple’s 8.4.1 release last month, developers on the jailbreak scene are already looking to the future as iOS 8.x becomes a set of firmware releases from the past. First, before we talk about a potential iOS 9 jailbreak, it’s important to realize the release timeframe for the first installment of Apple’s next major mobile operating system. iOS 9 was first unveiled at Apple’s 2015 WWDC (World Wide Developers Conference) in June, since then the firmware has gone through five developer-exclusive betas and three public beta releases before being issued to the public on September 16th. With Apple’s September 9th having recently passed,…
Latest iOS Jailbreak Status: iOS 9 Jailbreak Achieved (Update Here)!
iOS 9.0.2 Jailbreak Update: Apple Releases 9.0.2, TaiG or Pangu Jailbreak?
Jailbreak 9.0.2 Untethered Update, Apple Releases iOS 9.0.2, TaiG or Pangu Jailbreak? - Earlier this morning, exactly one week after the unexpected iOS 9.0.1 release, Apple issued iOS 9.0.2 to the general public, being the second minor installment to iOS 9 since its initial availability on September 16th. At this point, you’re undoubtedly curious as to whether we can jailbreak iOS 9.0.2. Unfortunately though, like the firmware’s predecessor, and every iOS release since 8.4.1, iOS 9.0.2 still utilizes Apple’s TaiG jailbreak-patching solution - i.e. we cannot jailbreak 9.0.2 using the current suite of jailbreak tools. As for the firmware itself, unlike the rather massive iOS 9.0 update, which introduced a plethora of new features (including added Siri functionality, deep searches, quicker app navigation, revised multitasking and much more), 9.0.2 is an incredibly minor release focused on addressing various complications introduced in iOS 9. For additional information on iOS 9.0.2 and…
Jailbreak iOS 9.0.1 Update, iOS 9.0.1 Released, Can We Jailbreak It?
Jailbreak iOS 9.0.1 Untethered; Apple Releases iOS 9.0.1, Can We Jailbreak? - This morning, in an unexpected move, Apple released iOS 9.0.1 to the public one week following the introduction of iOS 9 to the masses. Being the first update issued for iOS 9, the new 9.0.1 firmware offers minor bug fixes over last week’s 9.0. So naturally our readers are rightfully curious as to whether they can jailbreak iOS 9.0.1 untethered. First, before we delve into the subject of a potential iOS 9.0.1 firmware, let’s discuss the new release. Unlike its predecessor, which was the first release of its kind that added split view multitasking for new iPads, a slew of performance and battery enchantment, the ability to more quickly navigate through iOS, new Siri functionality, deep and integrated search and so much more, iOS 9.0.1 merely corrects several small bugs introduced by iOS 9 itself. Like with past…
iOS 9 Jailbreak and 9.0 Update: Apple Releases iOS 9 and More
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…

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 -…
Jailbreak iOS 9 and iOS 8.4, TaiG or Pangu, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad and K33N [Update]
Jailbreak iOS 9 Untethered Update: Pangu, TaiG and K33N, How to Jailbreak iOS 9.0 and 8.4 Status - In light of iOS 9 having recently entered developer beta testing, and the fact that Pangu has successfully achieved an iOS 8.3 jailbreak, it’s time to look forward towards the future: the second half of 2015, iOS 9’s release and beyond. iOS 9.0 will be released to the general public in the fall of 2015, alongside the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus, as is already known to be the target of a few teams interested in jailbreaking iOS 9. However, to address the current state of jailbreak affairs prior to discussing what’s next for the community, the latest iOS 8.1.2 (and 8.2 betas 1 and 2) Untethered PP and TaiG jailbreak utilities were patched some months ago by Apple with the release of iOS 8.1.3 - a patch that’s persisted throughout iOS 8.x updates, including iOS…
PP Claims iOS 8.3 Jailbreak Release In July, After 8.4, K33N To Jailbreak iOS 9?
PP States iOS 8.3 Jailbreak to be Released in July, after 8.4, K33n’s iOS 9 Jailbreak Plans - Today, following the conclusion of WWDC on Monday, a few interesting developments in the realm of jailbreaking have come to light. Without an iOS 8.3 jailbreak from either TaiG or Pangu, those new to the scene are undoubtedly starting to panic as we approach one of the longest periods we’ve had to wait for a new jailbreak utility - second only to days of iOS 6 - iOS 7, when 6.1.3 patched the jailbreak in March, 2013 and we didn’t receive a new untethered utility until evasi0n7 in December, 2013. So, with Pangu having recently demonstrated their ability to jailbreak iOS 8.3 at MOSEC and with iOS 8.4 right around the corner, what can we expect as far as a new jailbreak for iOS 8.4 and iOS 8.3? Interestingly, PP Assistant (the group…
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…
