Apple TV 3

As I am told, it is Apple TV 3G. Just because the blogs use "iPod Touch 4," that doesnt mean we use that. --5urd 17:30, 7 March 2012 (MST)

Firmware

How is iOS 5.1 for iPhone 3GS Jailbreakable untethered for old bootrom and tethered for new bootrom when the holes were patched(from what I understand) and on the main page it shows there is no jailbreak for everything else. I'm confused here. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by Staycool72 (talk) 8 March 2012, 0:43 GMT. Please consult this page for more info on how to sign pages, and how to fix this.

I am going to try and answer though it is hard to tell what you are asking by your grammar. Those are bootrom exploits, which cannot be patched by any firmware update. There isn't a jailbreak available though, they have to update the programs like redsn0w to work with the new version of iOS. Once it is updated the jailbreak will be untethered for old bootroms and tethered for the new ones (excluding 4S and iPads since there isn't any bootrom exploits for those). Modern jailbreaks require userland exploits to be untethered, but iOS 5.1 patched the vulnerabilities we have been using to get untethered. Hope that helps. --Jacob 18:09, 7 March 2012 (MST)

Correct the vulnerabilities for iOS 5.1 are patched so therefor on the firmware page iOS 5.1 for iPhone 3GS should say no for (Can it be jailbroken? (old bootrom and new bootrom) and not yes, that it why I am confused because the main page says no --Staycool72 20:30, 7 March 2012 (EST)

iOS 5.1 can be jailbroken on the iPhone 3GS, but at the time of writing this, there are no tools that support jailbreaking iOS 5.1. --Dialexio 18:34, 7 March 2012 (MST)

ok it answers my question. --Staycool72 20:49, 7 March 2012 (EST)

Brazilian Carriers and Cellular Devices

Wanted to let you people know that all Cellular devices sold in Brazil must be factory-unlocked according to a federal law. This should be added to the main page, as it already states the same about GSM iPads in everywhere but Japan. Cellular devices sold in Brazil must be factory-unlocked or the supplier must provide an official unlock if the user demands so. Luxiel 06:55, 24 April 2012 (MDT)

I'm against this. Japan is the other way round, an exception. Many countries now sell unlocked devices. Anybody else? --http 16:15, 24 April 2012 (MDT)

I'll have to say no to this also. Cellular iPads are sold unlocked in every country except Japan (and maybe a few others that we don't know of). --Dialexio 16:56, 24 April 2012 (MDT)

My bad, I think I mistook the real reason behind that information being stated... Thanks for the answers. --Luxiel 08:28, 2 May 2012 (MDT)
