pod2g update via his blog

Pod2g just said on his blog that the 4S untether failed, but he will still continue working and maybe there will be success if he has luck.

Exact quote for ya :)

Hello.

Here are the news of the 4S week-end.

The untether fails right now because I'm having processor cache issues.

I'm close, but I can't figure out what happens. It certainly has something to do with the Cortex-A9 cache management.

I could sort it out quick, it's a matter of chance.

I'll report you my progress tomorrow.

BTW: I removed (sorry) the greetings messages so that only articles related to the jailbreak remain in the main page. AFAIK Blogger don't have the option to move or fusion messages while keeping the comments.

Ciao!

Im gonna be really really impressed if he achieves the 4S and iPad 2 untethered jailbreaks :D:D:D I only can hope they can maintain the jailbreak as long as possible when updates come along, since it doesn't make too much sense to buy a 4S and keep it on 5.0 untethered always... You will want to have iOS 6 and 7 in the future.

Still, Ill hold on to my iPhone 4.

Sweet, great news.
Now wonder when Apple will drop 5.1.
Do they hold it and wait or release it now for 5.0.1 and let Apple patch it with 5.1?
How many betas of 5.1 are out so far?

It's on beta 2, released 12 days ago. Shouldn't be too long. I would vote to hold it for 5.1. There are some potentially important updates in the beta. Nothing groundbreaking but important for some:

- Enhanced dictation support during text input "on supported device"
- Able to delete individual photos from Photo Stream (I like this one)
- Carrier updates ( e.g. AT&T 11.1)
- Baseband updates
- Attempts to fix battery life
- Fixes iPhone 4S support for Caller ID Name Display (on supported carriers - ie. Rogers & Fido in Canada)
- New Wallpapers
 
I agree that he should just wait until 5.1. We've all waited this long we can wait a little more. This is great news though. All he needed was the actual device and then he worked his magic.
 
iPad 2 (Christmas) + 5.1 + Untethered Jailbreak for iPad 2/iPhone 4S = Heaven
 
anyone update to 5.01 yet for the 4s? or are you staying on 5.0 until the jb for 5.01 is confirmed?
 
Pod2G said 5.0.1 is safe, but I'm not sure if this applies to both 9A405 and 9A406.

I'm also not sure if the dev-teams 4S unlock is compatible with the baseband versions found in 5.0.1
 
i see it now. unless your worried about unlocking i guess.

5.0.1 didn't bring any I credible battery life improvements, or any other great changes. Even 5.1 seems kinda "eh"

Point is, I would easily choose to stay on 5.0 for my JB (and I will!), but I'm inclined to believe that at the very minimum, 5.0.1 will be supported.

my thinking too...since pod2g won't ever see 5.0. but im sure that bug is in 5.0 regardless. 5.0.1 for me.
 
A word of advise for you guys who are still on 5.0. I would update to 5.0.1 now. What if 5.1 comes out before the jailbreak and the jailbreak is only for 5.0.1? You will have no option to upgrade to 5.0.1 then!

Im keeping my eyes out...also after 5.1 is released, apple will still be signing 5.0.1 for a little while. I'm overly paranoid that because the difference in the 4s and the A5 chip that the jailbreak will work on 5.0 and not 5.0.1. I know he tweated that 5.0.1 was safe, but that was for the 4. Is it possible that it could be different for the 4s given the different hardware? I really dont have any idea

if i'm not mistaken, i believe i read somewhere that ios 5.1 was going to be released with ipad 3.

could be wrong about that, as it makes no sense whatsoever why they'd wait that long.
