Actually, I believe redsn0w (normal version) still loads a 2.1.1 iBoot & uses the arm7_go exploit to bootstrap the ramdisk that flashes the NOR, including an LLB with the 24kpwn exploit. Can someone confirm this? --[[User:Cool name|Cool name]] 01:33, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

After reading the Jailbreak table I found a few fileds, which are (from my point of view) not correct. Please check these changes. If someone disagrees with these changes, please tel me.
== "Exploits which are used in order to jailbreak 2.x?" ==
 
The exploits used for jailbreaking iOS 1.x are broken down by firmware version. I'd like to accomplish the same thing for the 2.0 and onward section, since it's formatted much differently. But then I thought to myself, "This is going to be a huge revision that may receive sharp criticism. Let me make a talk page entry for this." So that's what I did…
 
:So, in other words, would it be fine if the "Exploits which are used in order to jailbreak 2.0+" section was changed to something similar to the "Exploits which are used in order to jailbreak 1.x" section? --[[User:Dialexio|<span style="color:#C20; font-weight:normal;">Dialexio</span>]] 02:16, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
 
::Sounds like a good idea to me. Wouldn't it be easier to also separate them by major revisions? Like have a 2.X section, a 3.X section, a 4.X section, and soon to be 5.X? --[[User:JacobVengeance|JakeAnthraX]] 02:27, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

== 4.3.5 / 4.2.10 ==
 
  +
* Star supports iPhone2,1 (http://www.jailbreakme.com/star/_/iPhone2,1_4.0.pdf)
I've changed references to 0.9.8b3 to 0.9.8b7 for 4.3.5 tethered jailbreaks (see latest iPhone Dev rs iOS5beta posting). Should the Main Page be changed to reflect that an official jailbreak is available? Or will this only be changed on release of an untethered exploit being made available? Also fixed an error in which a reference to 0.9.6rc18 was existent with a question mark. Now changed to the accurate version of rs beta that needs to be used for 4.3.4 on that device. I've left 0.9.8b3 for 4.3.4 simply because that was the first release supporting it. Hope this is okay. [[User:Windows Helpdesk|blackthund3r]] 04:57, 31 August 2011 (MDT)

iOS 4.3:
== Absinthe ==
 
  +
* sn0wbreeze Jailbreak for iPad1,1 & iPhone3,1 are untethered (uses Saffron's software untether)
For all entries of Absinthe it is stated that Absinthe 2.0/2.0.1 jailbreaks iOS 5.0.1, however Absinthe 2.0.* jailbreaks only 5.1.1.
 
In order to jailbreak 5.0.1, one must use Absinthe 0.4. The official website states this cleary and keeps both 0.4 and 2.0.* available. I'll refrain from making this edit myself because I am not that friendly of wiki-like tables and might break something else :D
 
--[[User:Luxiel|Luxiel]] 06:16, 30 May 2012 (MDT)
 
:You're absolutely right. To edit the tables, feel free to try. There's a preview button; that way you can't break anything. If nobody updates this soon, I'll edit it. Thanks for reporting. --[[User:Http|http]] 13:45, 30 May 2012 (MDT)

::…OK, I just tried it out twice, and Absinthe 2.0.4 was able to successfully jailbreak my iPod touch 4G on iOS 5.0.1. It may be that Absinthe 0.4 is more recommended for jailbreaking iOS 5.0.1 (albeit only on the iPad 2 and iPhone 4S), but 2.0.4 seems to be perfectly capable of jailbreaking 5.0.1 and 5.1.1. --[[User:Dialexio|<span style="color:#C20; font-weight:normal;">Dialexio</span>]] 16:18, 30 May 2012 (MDT)
 
:::I didn't actually try to jailbreak a 5.0.1 with the new versions, as Chronic Team states on the Absinthe.exe that it jailbreakes 5.1.1 and the website points us to use 0.4 for 5.0.1, but if it works, it works :D --[[User:Luxiel|Luxiel]] 13:30, 31 May 2012 (MDT)

iOS 4.3.1:
== Bootrom exploits ==
 
  +
* Saffron does not support iPod3,1 (no http://www.jailbreakme.com/saffron/_/saffron-jailbreak-iPod3,1-8G4.deb; sn0wbreeze uses i0n1c's 4.3.x untether to untether iOS 4.3.1 on n18ap)

iOS 5.0:
== redsn0w versions ==
 
  +
* sn0wbreeze and redsn0w don't jailbreak iPhone4,1 (maybe redsn0w jailbreaks it, but it is definitely not Tethered)
In the jailbreak charts, we are listing the [[redsn0w]]-versions that work with this device/iOS version. That's fine. But in order to avoid updating the charts for every minor redsn0w release, I suggest that we just leave the starting version, like "0.9.15b1-" to indicate that support was added then. Of course, if redsn0w no longer supports that iOS build on the affected device, we have to add the end version too, like it is now. And also if the tether-status changes. The main problem right now is not even a lot of updates here just for minor redsn0w changes, but also if we forget to update this. For example if we list it as compatible with versions "0.9.102-0.9.117" and not we're at version "0.9.135", then nobody knows if support stopped at version "0.9.117" or if just the list didn't get updated. --[[User:Http|http]] 13:22, 4 November 2012 (MST)

:: Fixed everything listed above. I did not change PwnageTool as I can't check it.--[[User:Aker|aker]] 20:57, 23 June 2014 (GMT+2)
:: That's exactly the problem. Not all tools in their latest version work with old firmwares, so you have to take an older version in order to use it. But for tools that do work in their latest version we might want to remove the latest version and just list since which version it is supported, for example firmware x is supported with "redsn0w 0.99.1023-" meaning since that version of redsn0w. That way we don't have to update everything if a new redsn0w version comes out. And when (for any reason) firmware x is no longer supported with the newest redsn0w, we could replace it with "redsn0w 0.99.1023-0.99.2039" (when redsn0w 0.99.2040 is the version no longer supporting it). -- [[User:Http|http]] 17:59, 4 December 2012 (MST)

Hi Adam, you added many of these [http://theiphonewiki.com/w/index.php?title=Jailbreak%2FDeprecated_iPod_touches&diff=33107&oldid=33106 edits], but there is no untethered jailbreak for 6.1.3+ available.

I know this isn't very relevant today but I noticed that the links used to explain the differences between old and new bootrom iPhone 3GS's and iPod 2G's don't really lead users to information about how to find if they have an old or new bootrom device. I can think of 2 ways to better show these differences:
== TLC ==
 
   
  +
1. split these devices ( [[Bootrom 240.4|old bootrom iPod 2G]], [[Bootrom 240.5.1| new bootrom iPod 2G]], [[Bootrom 359.3| old bootrom iPhone 3GS]], [[Bootrom 359.3.2| new bootrom iPhone 3GS]] ) into their own columns to better show them as individual devices instead of them being shown as one device.
Okay, we've seen a bunch of firmwares come and go now. The page has started getting pretty incomprehensible and unwieldy. For starters, I think we can move the exploits used to a different page ([[Jailbreak Exploits]]?). We'll probably have to rethink how the tables display the information to make it friendlier to use… Maybe forgo tables, and present the information in a list, like such:
 
   
  +
2. provide a link to the [https://www.theiphonewiki.com/wiki/Bootrom#Old_.26_New_bootrom Old & New bootrom] section on the [[Bootrom]] page to provide a better explanation off the differences and how to find them since they are not noticeable to the untrained eye.
'''iPod touch 4G'''
 
* Absinthe: iOS 5.0.1
 
* greenpois0n: iOS 4.1, 4.2.1
 
* p0sixspwn: iOS 6.1.5, 6.1.6 (Cydia package only)
 
* Saffron: iOS 4.3, 4.3.1, 4.3.2, 4.3.3
 
   
  +
3. do both of the suggestions above and 1.) add the individual devices to each chart and 2.) provide a note on how to tell them apart from one another

== iPod touch 6G not supported? ==
== evasi0n7 exploits ==

So, I looked through the 9.x jailbreak list and was surprised to see the iPod touch 6th-generation left out. Even more confusing, it was labeled "N/A" for being jailbreakable on firmwares 9.0-9.0.2. When checking IPSW.me, I found the iPod 6 had links to IPSWs for 9.0-9.0.2 (like I expected)...
Since there is no list of exploits for evasi0n7, here are the ones Apple patched in iOS 7.1:

Is there a certain reason this happened? It may be a simple misunderstanding but I just want to be sure. --[[User:Citrusui|Citrusui]] ([[User talk:Citrusui|talk]]) 01:59, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

after updating this page tonight, it took me over an hour to fix and update the details between iOS/iPadOS/tvOS 11.x through 14.x, not only that but because the page is so long and there are so many tables inside the page, it lags like crazy when reloading the page, let alone trying to scroll to the area you edited.
== iPhone 4 sections ==

that time adds-up and because of that fact, i think it's time to breakup this page.
Is it really necessary to have different sections for the variants of the iPhone 4? Surely, we could combine them into one. — '''[[User:Spydar007|<span style="color:#ff5a00;">Spydar007</span>]] [[User talk:Spydar007|<span style="color:orange;">(Talk)</span>]]''' 16:26, 11 April 2014 (UTC)

:We should keep them as it is because not all devices have the same iOS versions on it. Though iPad 2 is combined, it should be left alone. --[[User:IAdam1n|iAdam1n]] ([[User talk:IAdam1n|talk]]) 17:16, 11 April 2014 (UTC)

:::Well I don't know but I would say don't merge them since there are different CDMA versions etc. See what others think too. Topics on talk pages should be given at least a week before anything changes anyway. --[[User:IAdam1n|iAdam1n]] ([[User talk:IAdam1n|talk]]) 17:55, 11 April 2014 (UTC)

for example: <code>/Jailbreak/Tools/14.x</code>

i think we also should consider separating the device types as well. <code>/Jailbreak/[DEVICETYPE]/14.x</code><br/>Replacing [DEVICETYPE] with "iPhone", "iPod", "iPad", "AppleTV", and "AppleWatch"

essentially this is mostly a "copy/paste" task, and it'll significantly shrink down the Jailbreak page, and you only have to edit the subpages.

we can just update that page whenever a new version of a jailbreak tool comes out, e.g: [[checkra1n]], it'll save time.

:That'd be a great idea! I don't think we should make a page for each device too, but separating by major os version I do like. What we can do on the page is make the table have sections for iPad, Air, Pro, mini, iPhone, iPod touch, TV, etc. That way it'll fit the width better. --[[User:IAdam1n|iAdam1n]] ([[User talk:IAdam1n|talk]]) 12:33, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

Table fixes

After reading the Jailbreak table I found a few fileds, which are (from my point of view) not correct. Please check these changes. If someone disagrees with these changes, please tel me.

iOS 4.0:

iOS 4.0.1:

  • sn0wbreeze supports iPhone3,1
  • sn0wbreeze jailbreaks all iPhone2,1 untethered (software untether from Star)

iOS 4.0.2:

  • sn0wbreeze supports iPhone3,1
  • sn0wbreeze jailbreaks all iPhone2,1 and iPod2,1 untethered (software untether from limera1n, I think)

iOS 4.1:

  • limera1n supports iPhone3,1

iOS 4.3:

  • sn0wbreeze Jailbreak for iPad1,1 & iPhone3,1 are untethered (uses Saffron's software untether)

iOS 4.3.1:

iOS 5.0:

  • sn0wbreeze and redsn0w don't jailbreak iPhone4,1 (maybe redsn0w jailbreaks it, but it is definitely not Tethered)

iOS 5.0.1:

  • the sn0wbreeze jailbreak for iPhone2,1; iPad1,1 and iPod3,1 is untethered

iOS 5.1:

  • sn0wbreeze is able to jailbreak iPhone3,1 (in an old version)

If you're sure these corrections are right, then please change them. — Spydar007 (Talk) 05:48, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
Fixed everything listed above. I did not change PwnageTool as I can't check it.--aker 20:57, 23 June 2014 (GMT+2)

8.x table error

So I was looking thru the tables and noticed the iPad Air 2 had a 2 that shows to be a note for the iPad Mini 3... I'm thinking it should be a 1 but idk MWoolweaver (talk) 20:50, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for pointing this out. I've fixed it with how it should have been --iAdam1n (talk) 21:05, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

better clarification between old and new bootrom iPhone 3GS and iPod 2G

I know this isn't very relevant today but I noticed that the links used to explain the differences between old and new bootrom iPhone 3GS's and iPod 2G's don't really lead users to information about how to find if they have an old or new bootrom device. I can think of 2 ways to better show these differences:

1. split these devices ( old bootrom iPod 2G, new bootrom iPod 2G, old bootrom iPhone 3GS, new bootrom iPhone 3GS ) into their own columns to better show them as individual devices instead of them being shown as one device.

2. provide a link to the Old & New bootrom section on the Bootrom page to provide a better explanation off the differences and how to find them since they are not noticeable to the untrained eye.

3. do both of the suggestions above and 1.) add the individual devices to each chart and 2.) provide a note on how to tell them apart from one another

iPod touch 6G not supported?

So, I looked through the 9.x jailbreak list and was surprised to see the iPod touch 6th-generation left out. Even more confusing, it was labeled "N/A" for being jailbreakable on firmwares 9.0-9.0.2. When checking IPSW.me, I found the iPod 6 had links to IPSWs for 9.0-9.0.2 (like I expected)...

split the Jailbreak page into subpages, similar to the firmware pages, and change how the latest version of certain jailbreak tools is displayed.

after updating this page tonight, it took me over an hour to fix and update the details between iOS/iPadOS/tvOS 11.x through 14.x, not only that but because the page is so long and there are so many tables inside the page, it lags like crazy when reloading the page, let alone trying to scroll to the area you edited.

that time adds-up and because of that fact, i think it's time to breakup this page.

thus, the best way i can think-of to tackle this problem is by creating subpages (one page per major firmware)

for example: /Jailbreak/Tools/14.x

i think we also should consider separating the device types as well. /Jailbreak/[DEVICETYPE]/14.x
Replacing [DEVICETYPE] with "iPhone", "iPod", "iPad", "AppleTV", and "AppleWatch"

essentially this is mostly a "copy/paste" task, and it'll significantly shrink down the Jailbreak page, and you only have to edit the subpages.

and as for updating jailbreak tool versions, we can make a template for that.

for example: /Jailbreak/Tools/Latest_versions

we can just update that page whenever a new version of a jailbreak tool comes out, e.g: checkra1n, it'll save time.

i will build a concept inside my sandbox so you can see what i am thinking of, be back soon!
