Regret upgrading to iOS 5.1 and losing your jailbreak? Yeah, me too. But thankfully, Pod2g and his team of iOS hackers have now discovered all of the exploits required for the iOS 5.1 jailbreak.
Just don’t get too excited, because there’s still a long way to go. Following Pod2g’s announcement, iOS hacker Grant Paul, better known as chpwn, reminded users that despite the team’s progress, it’s likely to be months before the jailbreak is actually working, never mind ready for public release:
Remember: just because all the exploits are found doesn’t mean that a jailbreak exists — it’s likely months away from first working at all.
There’s no word on when the hack might be ready for release, then, but still, this is a huge step towards an iOS 5.1 jailbreak. If you haven’t already updated to iOS 5.1, we’d still advise you to stick to iOS 5.0.1 for the jailbreak for the time being.
