This is just in. The Evad3rs team
have just announced Evasi0n, an iOS 6 / 6.1 untethered jailbreak tool for
Windows, Mac and Linux. While the tool hasn’t been released yet, it is
currently in final testing stages, and if a recent tweet of MuscleNerd is
anything to go by, release is likely set for Sunday.
The announcement was made today on the official Twitter account
of team Evad3rs, which consists of prominent iOS devs such as MuscleNerd,
Pod2g, Planetbeing and Pimskeks.
The official
evasi0n 6.1 jailbreak: evasi0n.com — Check regularly for updates! #evasi0n
Evasi0n will support all firmwares
from iOS 6.0 through iOS 6.1, and will be compatible with
following devices:
•
iPhone 5
•
iPhone 4S
•
iPhone 4
•
iPhone 3GS
•
iPad 4
•
iPad 3
•
iPad 2
•
iPad mini
•
iPod touch 5
•
iPod touch 4
•
Apple TV 2
The only device which is currently not
supported is Apple TV 3.
According to the official website,
Evasi0n, at minimum, will require a computer running Windows XP and over, OS X
10.5 and over, or Linux (x86 / x86_64).
5 minutes of
your time!
A computer,
running Windows (XP minimum), Mac OS X (10.5 minimum) or Linux (x86 / x86_64)
An iPhone, iPad
or iPod running iOS 6.0 through 6.1 (you may check in Settings / General /
About => Version)
A USB cable to
connect the device to the computer
Even though all iOS 6.x firmwares (iOS 6.0,
6.0.1, 6.0.2 and 6.1) are said to be supported, it is highly recommended to
update to the latest iOS 6.1 version via iTunes (you can download iOS 6.1 firmware
from here), NOT OTA (over-the-air), to take full advantage of all the features
the latest firmware has to offer, with the added benefits of the jailbreak.
We will obviously post a complete
step-by-step tutorial along with a video walk-through on how to jailbreak your
iPhone 5 and other supported devices – untethered – using Evasi0n, as soon as
it is released! So stay tuned for that.
Oh and yes, those of you who are sporting
older A4 and below devices (iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPod touch 4) can jailbreak iOS 6.1 tethered
right now using Redsn0w. [RedmondPie]
