pod2g: It's Safe For Jailbreakers to Upgrade to iOS 5.1.1

Now that it has been confirmed that the pod2g's untethered jailbreak is almost ready and works with most iOS devices (except Apple TV 3) running iOS 5.1.1, he has tweeted that it is safe for jailbreakers to update their iOS devices to iOS 5.1.1.

But pod2g has warned users who depend on Ultrasn0w to unlock their iPhone should avoid updating to iOS 5.1.1.

will wait for Absinthe 2.0!

Would be funny if pod2g convinced thousands of 5.0.1 users to upgrade to 5.1.1 and decide to not release the jailbreak because Apple gave him 2 million dollar not to. Okay, that probably wouldn't be funny.

Haga

This probably won't happen because he worked hard to make the jailbreak he wouldn't be trade us for money

Getittt

so even when they release the jailbreak if i want to unlock my iphone i have to wait even longer for them to update redsn0w?

axe

I think redsnow will follow in a matter of hours after absinthe 2.0 release. I give max one day delay.

marc

If I want to use this jailbreak do I have to upgrade o I can directly use it with a jailbroken Ipad?

rik

Will this work for iPad 1?

Getitttt

ok! phew!!! sounds good I got kind of worried cause im heading to europe the second week of june and i need to unlock the iphone before i get there!

Katar2

Come on pod2g...release the kraken....

CJ

Is the iphone 4s 5.0 baseband even worth saving? or should i just update to 5.1.1. its not like they have found an unlock for it

Tinman

Hahaha Gotta say it with more flim in ur throat

axe

It's always been the rule of thumb that the lower yr bb, the higher exploitable chance.

axe

U hv to upgrade to 5.1.1. Absinthe 2.0 is written specifically for 5.1.1 to work. Dun forget to backup b4 u upgrade. Ifbu rely on bb unlock, dun use it. Use redsnow when it comes out later.

Sweeeeet

yes

Jaybeatsz

I swear I was thinking of this to wow

axe

Well it depends on which currency :)

Julesrif

i'm scary about it. I'll wait 'till jb is out to upgrade.

Steve

Is there any clear benefit of upgrading to 5.1.1 ? I'm using 5.0.1 and just can't see a good enough reason to upgrade my devices.

sasa

if i have iphone 5.0.1 with ipad baseband, is it possbile to upgrade to 5.1.1 ? i mean i dont care if i will have jailbreak after.

Ivan

Do not get your hopes high because they are only delivering a jailbreak and not unlock which means that if your device is not already unlocked with a preserved baseband then you wont be able to unlock because the new tool wont unlock devices.

"Wouldn't be trade us for money" I would trade anyone i do not know for money at any time any day.

Ryan

i am using iPhone 4S 32Gb on 5.1.1 newest baseband, unlocked with gevey turbo S.

ambulansya

So on the upcoming redsnow, even a5 devices can preserve bb? Im currently on 1.0.13 ip4s 5.0.1. Untethered. Should i wait for redsnow? I still got my sam activation tickets.

JCLGUY

I would sell my jailbreak for $2mil instantly. Lmfao

javatechnic

hello.....my iphone 4 is ios 5.1 and is manufacturing unlocked and tethered jailbroken. if I want to upgraded to 5.1.1, do I lose my jailbreak? please advise....thanks

Salman

Is it possible to upgrade to 5.1.1 without loosing your jail broken apps and cydia tweaks?

brnxmade

What if you bought a new Ipad with 5.1 already on it and have not the Taken a backup of SHSH blobs using TinyUmbrella

CJ

im thinking the same. but i have the lowest baseband. i think im just going to upgrade. its been 8 months so its safe to say no unlock is coming. not like i needed it, just for resale value.

CJ

i wonder if this version of absinthe wont come with with white icon glitch. it gets really annoying and sometimes when i delete an app a bunch of them pop up

MrX

I have Ipad 3 (new ipad) WiFi+4G EU version i can install jb 5.1.1 ?
