If you’re like some of us here at GS and anxiously awaiting the highly anticipated Absinthe 2.0/iOS 5.1.1 untethered jailbreak, you have less than 24 hours left. A recent tweet from the @HITBsecConf twitter account for said conference says that on Friday, May 25th, pod2g and friends will be showing off a live demonstration of the new jailbreak, with a public release hitting the interwebs (reportedly) shortly thereafter. The event is kicking off at 11:30am CET (5:30am...

Remember that awesome Unfold iOS lockscreen tweak we showed you just last week? Well, the jailbreak community (specifically, German developer Jonas Gessner) apparently loved the concept too as they’ve already whipped something up and shot it onto the Cydia App Store.

I think iPhone 3Gs is out too. — pod2g (@pod2g) May 14, 2012 According to a tweet by infamous iOS hacker/jailbreaker, pod2g, the latest untether exploit he’s working on for an eventual (assumed) iOS 5.1(.x) jailbreak does not work on the 3rd-gen iPod Touch. He also speculates that the iPhone 3GS could be out too. A post-iOS 5.1 untether jailbreak (more-so...

Heya! My iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1 is now untethered — pod2g (@pod2g) May 3, 2012 An official iOS 5.1 unether is a little bit closer today after a new tweet by infamous iOS hacker/jailbreaker, @pod2g. The hacker claims to have an iPhone 4 untether jailbreak up and running. Success! So how soon until you can slap it on your iPhone 4? A while(ish).
