Well iDevicers, iPhone hacker and jailbreak dev, iH8sn0w has did it again! The new 2.6.1 sn0wbreeze update finally brings support for jailbreaking Verizon iPhone 4 on iOS 4.2.7 untethered! Yeap, untethered! Now as you may know, the sn0wbreeze jailbreaking tool is made for Windows, but don’t trip Mac users because you can use Redsn0w then add a source and download a Cydia package to get the full untethered jailbreak. Details below.
iH8sn0w sent a tweet on Twitter along with a pastie (Release Notes)
sn0wbreeze 2.6.1: Verizon love!
Well, after i0n1c released his untether exploit for 4.3.1, Apple shortly
pushed out 4.3.2 AND 4.2.7. i0n1c’s payload was ported over to 4.3.2 in a
short period of time but not 4.2.7. This made Verizon users very
frustrated.I originally ordered a Verizon iPhone 4 for my upcoming SHSH blobs dumper.
Then I + many others on twitter realized that an untether was not
available for 4.2.7. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been sick and didn’t do
much, but today I was finally able to get the strength to work on this
Verizon untether. Since i0n1c’s payload is not easily reversible, I went
to previous exploits.After trying, pod2g’s + posixninja’s kernel exploit for 4.2.x is STILL in
4.2.7! After some more work, I managed to get this thing untethered!So, this new release includes that new payload to untether + jailbreak 4.2.7.
