Apple just released the 3.0 OS (firmware) a few days ago, and it seems like "just about" everyone has been sweating the release of their software to jailbreak iPhone 3.0.
In the beginning, they had planned to release the "new & improved" QuickPwn & PwnageTool (used to Jailbreak iPhone's & iPod Touches), as soon as Apple released this (3.0 update).... but they've ran into a little problem here recently that is going to push them back a few days..
This is taken directly from the Dev Team's blog:
Now, I know that EVERYONE is waiting on the updated tools, but everyone should be a little understanding of their situation, as they are doing this work 100% free...We have two issues that we’ve been trying to resolve:
- There are new 3.0 complications with YouTube.app if you’re on a hacktivated (unofficially activated) device
- There’s a bug in Apple’s new version of asr that our custom IPSW’s are tickling and causing crashes on, on some devices. (For the nerdy or curious among us, the details of that bug were tweeted by planetbeing a month ago.)
As of Thursday morning we now have a workaround for #2. For #1, we’ll try our best to get it fixed but we may end up releasing a preliminary jailbreak in which YouTube doesn’t work for hacktivated devices, and then follow that up with a more complete jailbreak when we can.
Just make sure you keep updated with iPhoneHacksNMods, and we'll let you know as soon as the updates are released!!
The Dev Team have already announced that they will be releasing UltraSnow, their software unlock solution for 3.0, on Friday... but will the delay in Jailbreaking devices push the Unlock back??
Let us know what you think of the whole "ordeal" in the comments section !!
