here’s an interesting confession, wherever i go and whoever i’m with, i always feel alone (in the literal sense)
it’s been a little over a week with the new jailbreak provided by @comex that i’ve been very fortunate to be rockin’ with little to no stability issues. if you hadn’t taken the jailbreaking plunge yet on your iphone or ipod touch, it’s a disservice to your expensive apple product.
though one thing that puzzles me about this exploit, is that it exposes (as i’ve mentioned previously) a potentially threatening backdoor for would-be techno thieves and hackers as the exploit jailbreaks your device using safari mobile. essentially, by taking advantage of a rendering flaw in safari mobile while loading adobe .pdf files, the exploit is able to (read: very easily) patch the operating system to allow for the installation of outside software.

and i know what you’re thinking, “couldn’t i just run to the apple store and deliberately jailbreak demo iDevices?” yes, yes you can, though in light of this apple corporate has forced retail stores to block jailbreakme.com from being accessed…shame
your eyes aren’t deceiving you, free software priced at $3, america…
apparently @comex has released the new userland exploit for iDevices (ipod touch, iphone, ipad) running various firmwares and bootroms. myself? running an iDevice on firmware 3.1.3 with the spirit jailbreak, but this new jailbreak apparently works through the safari mobile browser.
so, on your iDevice, make sure it’s running the latest firmware (4.0 or 4.0.1) and using the safari browser, go to: jailbreakme.com
if @comex can run a jailbreaking scheme through safari, what does that say about iOS security? scary stuff…i’ll report back with the results.
UPDATE: don’t really know what exactly is going on, but i’d imagine a lot of late iOS 4 adopters (such as yours truly) may be downloading the latest firmware release from apple, i have an estimated time of a little under an hour before the firmware is downloaded and installed.
UPDATE 2: from what i’ve read apparently, iphone 4 users are running into Facetime and MMS problems after using the exploit which can be fixable and involves restoring the phone from back up and jailbreaking again.
UPDATE 3: well, after an hour or so of downloading iOS 4, i had an additional 30 minutes of wait time as jailbreakme.com has been inundated by requests (so if after sliding to jailbreak, you’re met with a blank page of the site’s background, then keep trying, took me 30 minutes to get through), i have it, iOS 4 is fairly spiffy with multitasking, folders support for apps (condensing 3 pages of apps into one, amazing)…the jailbreak’s, of course, an untethered jailbreak meaning the device can be shut off without risk of losing the jailbreak or having to be synced with iTunes upon booting.
