Another Dev Team release: Redsn0w 0.9.9b9b for jailbreaking iPhone iPad and iPod Touch

RedSn0w 0.9.9b9

Jailbreak dev group, better known as iPhone Dev Team have again made us happy with a new update to their well known RedSn0w jailbreak tool. This instalment of the jailbreak introduces a number of incremental improvements as well as a support for latest iOS 5.0.1 firmware. Since Apple is lately focused on upgrading iOS, activities from jailbreak community have to be as frequent as never before, just for them to stay in the loop and gain an upper hand over Apple. And RedSn0w is again doing exactly that.Please note: this version of RedSn0w is still only a tethered jailbreak, so whenever you turn off your device o restart it you need to use plug it into your computer and choose “Just boot tethered”.

Most important feature of this jailbreak tool is that it now jailbreaks iPhone and iPad running iOS 5.0.1. In earlier versions of RedSn0w when you wanted to jailbreak you had to point it to the iOS 5.0 firmware. This isn’t the case now, so you can use iOS 5.0.1 right away. Another great help to jailbreakers is the fact that you can use this software for downgrading the firmware on your device with the previously saved SHSH blobs.

If you are still waiting for a untethered jailbreak, you will need to wait for  @pod2g to finish his upcoming untethered jailbreak . According to the latest rumors, Pod2g is busy working on his new solution and it is expected that it could soon become available to all users. However, we wont hold our breath and even weeks could pass before  pod2g releases a stable untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.0.1 devices. Stay tuned as we guide you through the world of Apple device jailbreaking.

Microsoft positive about jailbreaking Windows Phone 7

Windows phone jailbreak

It seems that some other companies aren’t so shy as Apple is when it comes to jailbreaking of their devices. Although it’s not fully clear to us: is this just a PR  maneuver or a new policy? This is especially surprising as this news comes from Microsoft which hasn’t so far had a history of good relationship with hackers playing with their code.

The new jailbreak for Windows 7 Phone is coming from a dev group known as ChevronWP7 Lab. The news originated on the Windows Phone 7 Podcast, and according to this source the jailbreak should be launched officially in the near future. The jailbreak should become a useful tool for developers with different skill sets and located in different areas of the world. Officiall jailbreak for Windows 7 Phones will be available from ChevronWP7. This jailbreak will cost only a  small amount of cash paid through PayPal.

This is something which will probably be cheered by both users and code developers. It differs radically than the policies promoted by Apple. TO remind you Apple has a strong policies to discourage users to jailbreak their iPhones and iPads. They even go so far as to deny tech support to users which have jailbroken their devices. This comes despite the fact that Apple still uses many of jailbreak tweaks and apps in their future iOS releases after they have initially been released and tested in the real world by independent jailbreak developers and jailbreak users. Last summer US courts have ruled out that jailbreaking is legal.
