Shortly after the Chronic Dev-Team launched Absinthe 2.0 last Friday, Apple pushed out a revised iOS 5.1.1 (9B208) update for the iPhone 4. As yet, no other device has received the same update, and it’s unclear exactly what the software does. But if you installed it accidentally, you’ll be pleased to know that the Rocky Racoon untether now supports it.

This means you can turn your iOS 5.1.1 tethered jailbreak into an untethered one, simply by installed Rocky Racoon version 1.0-2 from Cydia.

The update’s release notes read:

As there are now two versions of iOS, both called “5.1.1” for iPhone 4 GSM, 1.0-2 was released to support both.”

Once Rocky Racoon is installed on your iPhone, you’ll be able to reboot it as many times as you like without having to connect it to your computer. This saves you restoring and jailbreaking again using Absinthe 2.0.
