Tethered jailbreaks, untethered jailbreaks, exploits, etc are all a common occurring when you talk about iOS devices. The likes of the iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPod Touch and the iPad always have another tool available to report on. The last couple of weeks have been dominated by Geohot, GreenPoisOn, Limera1n, etc and they haven’t yet stopped.

What good is a jailbreak tool if its not for the Mac OSX? We reported the release of the Limera1n jailbreak tool for Windows and then also for the Mac users. Today we have news on the GreenPoisOn tool available for download on the Mac OS X.

This one’s big and it had to happen, at least that’s what I think. Latest reports have rolled in to give us good tidings from MuscleNerd who tweeted earlier they have figured out a way to jailbreak all Apple devices on the A4 firmware, untethered. This has been done with the extension of PwnageTool, Limera1n and exploits from @Comex.

We reported about the release of Geohot’s Limera1n Jailbreak Tool last week and it created quite a ripple. However that was for Windows only and only a couple of days Limera1n Mac version was out as well.

Geohot is making news everywhere, starting off with the annihilation of the GreenPoisOn release on October 10 with his own Limera1n Jailbreak Tool for Windows. That left a feeling of being left out amongst the Mac users. Good news is that Geohot has got kind enough to release the Limera1n iOS 4.1 jailbreak tool for the Mac OSX.

![image thumb24 More Rumors: PwnageTool 4.1 Set To Be Released This Sunday To Jailbreak Apple TV and iPhone 4 [iOS4.1]](http://startupmeme.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/image_thumb24.png "PwnageTool for iPhone")
I understand that almost everything about thing associated to jailbreaking the iPhone, IPod Touch and the iPad has been about Windows. Be it the timely release of the Limera1n jailbreak Tool or the GreenPoisOn release recently. Our friends have kept a vigilant eye on the Chronic Dev Team for something about Mac users. Good news is that the users should be ready to embrace PwnageTool 4.1 for iOS 4.1 devices. And it’s coming this Sunday.
As per reports, this would jailbreak iPhone 4 as well as Apple TV 2G. Just like GreenPoisOn’s current release, which was based on the Limera1n exploit, the PwnageTool will based on this as well. As stated earlier, this would readily enable you to jailbreak your iPhone 4 on the iOS 4.1. However this wouldn’t alter the baseband of your device.

We almost got carried away with the sudden entry of Geohot and his Limera1n jailbreak Tool on Saturday and the availability of download it on Sunday, October 10 when the GreenPoisOn was scheduled to release. What we missed out to report was that the SHAtter exploit was postponed. The reason was obvious enough as there wasn’t really a point to release this jailbreak tool when it was only meant for the fourth generation of Apple devices. The Limera1n on the other hand was already available to jailbreak almost all of these.

It has been a day since the release of the Limera1n Jailbreak Tool from Geohot and its already making news. From whatever stats I have on my blog, it appears people have been searching for this tool like crazy. Upon the release we shared a short Step by Step Guide on How To Jailbreak Your iPhone 4 And 3GS With Limera1n and today we thought of sharing similar steps for jailbreaking your iPad on iOS 3.2.2 using Limera1n.

What good is a jailbreak tool if there is not a how to guide on it. Almost as quick the developers are in creating a jailbreak tool in the likes of GreenPoisOn or Limera1n blogs rush in with the how to guides and we now have one for Limera1n.

We have talked extensively on how to jailbreak iPhon3G, 3GS, iPod Touch and the iPad. And only yesterday we reported about Geohot’s return with the all new Limera1n jailbreak tool for the third generation Apple devices, which include the iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G/3GS, iPhone 4, iPad and the iPod Touch devices running on iOS 4.1. Unlike the GreenPoisOn jailbreak tool which is only for the fourth generation of the Apple devices, Limera1n would jailbreak all of these.
