The Chronic Dev Team Updates Absinthe Jailbreak Tool

The Chronic Dev Team Updates Absinthe Jailbreak Tool

Last week, the Chronic Dev Team launched Absinthe 2.0: a new jailbreak tool, which has the power to "liberate" our iOS 5.1.1-powered iDevices (even those sporting an A5X-processor). However, on the same day, Apple launched a mysterious new build of iOS 5.1.1 for the GSM iPhone 4 only ("9B208") - naturally, this confused matters, as jailbreakers weren't sure whether Absinthe 2.0 (or 2.01) supported this new build of iOS 5.1.1.

However, shortly after releasing the software, it was announced that the jailbreakers already have a part of the iOS 6-jailbreak: according to @pod2g, when Apple launches iOS 6, a jailbreak solution will be ready.

The Chronic-Dev Team has managed to develop an untethered jailbreak solution for the iPhone 4 under iOS 4.2.1. A little while ago, Chronic-Dev Team member p0sixninja posted a YouTube video showing off an iPhone 4 that had been jailbroken via the untethered solution. Presumably, the Chronic-Dev Team will release a final version of the tool in the near future.
