iPhone Dev team and iH8sn0w have already released Redsn0w and Sn0wbreeze that supports a tethered jailbreak for iOS 5.1.
If you are wondering what’s the update on the untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.1 and support for iPhone 4S and iPad 2 then the latest update is that pod2G who was part of the Jailbreak Dream team that brought us Absinthe jailbreak – the untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.0.1 for A5 powered iOS devices is working hard on it. He just tweeted:
Hi, I’ve no clue, but I’m working actively on finding vulnerabilities in 5.1.
Though the jailbreak Dream team hasn’t clarified if iOS 5.1 fixes the vulnerability used by the Absinthe jailbreak, we’re assuming that Apple has fixed it based on pod2G’s comment that he is actively working on finding vulnerabilities in iOS 5.1.
So if you’re still on iOS 5.0.1, then as advised by the iPhone Dev team, avoid updating to iOS 5.1 until the jailbreak tools for iOS 5.1 are released.
As always, we’ll let you know as soon as there’s any update so stay tuned at iPhone Hacks or join our Facebook Fan page or follow us on Twitter or add us on Google+ or subscribe to our RSS feed.
