Apple May Have Patched Limera1n Bootrom Exploit In Newer iPhone, iPad And iPod Touch To Prevent Jailbreaking
A forum member of ModMyI claims that he was not able to jailbreak his iPad that he had bought recently using Redsn0w.
This has led to speculation that Apple might have patched the limera1n exploit that has been used in Redsn0w to jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 in newer iPhones, iPads and iPod Touches that are being shipped.

I have serial number XX036X so I am okay! This might be bad news for some people, but for others like geo hot it's something else he can get his teeth stuck into! Keep up the good work!

My iPhone 4 was made week 45 and Redsn0w jailbroke it on 4.1.
-
Week 46 here, bought last week, jaillbroken. Looks like I got it just in time!
-
Sorry, that's an iPad I'm talking about.

I am so over jailbroken phone. I left mine zzas normal. I w ill never ever jailbrake my phone. It just all your data get lost then you have to do everything again. Mate so better not jailbroekn.What you need facebook tweeter all for free. Just pai 89 $ for tomtom and you got it fopr life. Am sure apple wil do a better UI interface slowly . and you have to update it from itunes and you will never loose your apps and information.Thst it.Trust me jailbreak is waist of time . Soon apple will add themes to and that itbye bye jauilbreak

Good for you. Enjoy your run-of-the-mill-look-like-everyone-else's iPhone. For those of us who llke having somthing more personalized, jailbreaking is a very kick@$$ tool. Don't come on am iPhone jailbreak site spitting your dislike for jailbreaking.
-
You gotta be kidding me, I didn't see that one coming lol.
-
Quick oneDone my iPad 4.2.1 thought the same, have you told redsn0w to "boot it tethered"otherwise cydia wont show
-
This is incorrect information! It would take upto 6 months for Apple to patch the exploit! And this information is coming from some one who tries to JB a new ipad! And its unclear if he even knew what he was doing!
-
I'm getting tired of apple. I'm still on 4.1 because of that. Thinking about goin to android..
-
Not true...my new iPhone is week 50 and I have o problem jailbreak it.
-
can you facetime over 3g?
-
Just purchased mine today at best buy mine was done on week 49 ios 4.2.1 and i just jailbroke it tethered using redsnow b6
-
Somehow my iphone 3g cant be jailbroken on 4.0 and above...redsnow just hangs halfway..and limera1n just hangs as well and doesn't detect the phone in DFU mode. Only able to jailbreak on 3.1.3..odd..
-
Yea .. I'm lovin this game ..
-
mine iphone 4 on 4.21 xxx047,can it jailbreak and unlockThanks
-
Jailbreak on ipad is not working for me on 4.2.1 using redsn0w it freezes during jailbreak then message pops up say close program
-
I got my iPad today and its serial no. xx059xxx i used redsnow and jailbroken it tethered...It works like a charm.. ;)
-
Aren't there only 52 weeks in a year?
-
Dude....there's only 52 weeks in a year.....since when did they add 7 extra weeks??! Maybe u should be honest before u place lies hereThanks
-
That's what I thought this guy is just bullshit
-
The whole story is bs, how would an iPad get from production to consumer in less than a week.
-
Well, I've just about given up jailbreaking, which is not to say I'll just take iphones for what they come with, I'm going Android. So are most of my work coleauges (IT guys). Why should we have to jailbreak a phone just to get it to do what it should already be doing and others allow you to do out of the box. Sorry apple, but this is rubbish, you have a great product, but you're going to lose the market at this rate. Even people who know nothing about IT are starting to go Android. There are android phones all over the shopping mall this christmas, I hope Apple wake up to what's going on and do something about it.
-
Apple wants to run its monoply, not good knowing that Android is almost up there.
-
Here is what probably happened to the guy that was unable to jailbreak his iPad. He is probably running windows 7. Windows 7 freezes up redsn0w when it gets to about 75%. So it may have seen like the exploit no longer works. All you have to do is right-click on the redsn0w file. Go into properties and run as windows xp compatiable. This happens to one person and it automatically becomes a headline. Who is writing these headlines? Why so quick to jump to conclusions?
-
This happened to me, too BUT I could figure out, that some iPhone / iPad Helper Tools (2Do Helper, Air Video Server Helper) caused this problem. Maybe a firewall is blocking the connection to Apple.

Go F*** yourself
