Did they though? Nope.

I haven't put anyone down bro. Go quote my comments and lets see what, exactly, I said about them.:rolleyes:

What have they done to me? They kicked my dog...

That you don't want to see or read the warnings doesn't mean they didn't:

Remember! JBers should always avoid updates (like 6.0.2 being offered to some devices today) to improve chances of using any future JB.

"So may I assume it's safe to upgrade to 6.1 when it's released?

That is almost the opposite of what I said."

Accusing those guys of doing it just for attention is generally seen as putting some one down….
 
Based on???

nobody knows

Ahh, i see what's going on now...You are one of those that thinks overly defending and kissing up to the devs will get them to release what they have out of kindness. I've seen a lot of this in the android community. Sorry to burst your bubble, but it doesn't work.;)

The real devs know better than to dangle something in front of others. I still say this was all for attention. It's fun to stir stuff up when bored. Anyone that jailbreaks KNOWS better than to update to a major ios change without first checking jailbreak status.

Edit: I do believe they have a jailbreak, but also believe it was announced this early for attention.

You obviously don't know PB.
 
I accidentally upgraded my jb 4s to 6.0 when I had to do a restore. My wife still has 5.1.1 on her phone. Any way to use her phone to downgrade mine back?

Sure…i'm all cuddly with the devs…
All i am seeing are some teenage hormones trying to grow up, still has a ways to go though

We are all anciously waiting for your first mature post and your jailbrake as you seem to be all knowing on the subject.
 
I think 6.0.X are safe, but I'd definitely avoid 6.1 until its given the okay. That's speculation though. I'm staying put to be sure!
 
On another note, it's amazing to see how apple has improved their security since the first iPhone came out. I remember hearing a teen had hacked it the first day...I wonder if what he's up to these days?

What are the odds he HELPS apple look for exploits these days? :eek:

It's a little ridiculous that we even have to jailbreak just for minor perks that merely allow the phone to work more like an android phone. Can't someone merge the two? iOS polish with android functionality? Turning on/off wifi or Bluetooth is ridiculous compared to android.

The best way to combat jail breaking is to implement the desired functions BETTER than the devs can. Wasn't that the motive behind Steve jobs and 99cent music downloads? Who cares about stealing music when you can buy a song, with perfect quality, for a buck?

Keeping a low profile, you grow up fast being chased by Sony lawyers.

You mean the original JB kid?
 
By tha time they decide to release a jb break for iOS6-6.1, Apple 5th generation iDevices will be out!!! This is a cat & mouse game which stir up otha ppl emotions & prohibit dim from properly using their devices.. Jus push tha damn thing out man damn!!!

The 4S was the 5th Gen iPhone. the 5 is the 6th - so I guess you are right...

Translation of Damotchi quote said:
I fear that about the average time that they finally build the jailbreak and proceed to back it out the driveway for the Apple iOS (versions 6.0 through 6.1), Apple's next generation devices that people use to make cellphone calls, referred to as the iPhone, the Apple tablet, referred to as the iPad, and the MP3 player equipped with almost all iPhone features, referred to as the iPod Touch, may have already been baked and ready to slide out the oven to feed to our current generation audience at an Apple media event.

This game shall be relative to the game of Cat & Mouse, in which when I proceed to play this game with my friends, it stirs up emotional tensions between my peers, much like the wait for this jailbreak.

These emotional outbreaks create symptoms like burning explosive diarrhea, unattainable jailbreak stress disorder (known as UJSD), excessive use of punctuation, and sometimes expressing extreme distress toward other fellow folks on internet message boards. These symptoms then prohibit me from using my iPhone, as for some reason having my iPhone in its normal state prevents me from using properly it at all.

If they are having issues with backing the jailbreak out of the garage for public access, I suggest they try pushing the jailbreak out.

Best I could do.
 
All I knew of him was that he hacked the first iPhone when he was 15. What else did he do to get Sony after him?

Well, besides producing several public jailbreaks for the iPhone, he managed to obtain and publish the root keys for the "virtually unhackable" Sony PS3 -- a feat he accomplished within five weeks of his initial attempts. He was subsequently able to obtain full read/write/execute access and create custom firmware and homebrew. Needless to say, Sony was not happy.

It is unfortunate that his techniques were probably used in the huge attack on the Playstation Network that compromised 77 million users' accounts and resulted in shutdowns of the service.

I don't pity Sony because they also brought that on themselves by not encoding anything and just having it plain text.

Also, Sony sent Geohot into hole he hasn't come back from. We desperately need to gain 1st Gen iPhone level Pwnage; where the entire thing was ours for manipulation.
