Chronic Dev: Green Poison Update
The chroniv dev team posted some progress update on the ipod touch 3G jailbreak. Below is what they had to say:
For those that are following our twitter, you probably already know this, but for all the others I thought I would post an “official” progress update here. Again, some of this is old news to some people.
First of all, we have tested the greenpois0n exploit on the iPod touch 3G, and it works still ![]()
Just to have a little bit of fun and to show something to prove that it is actually executing our code and not just crashing, I wrote a teeny payload that copied and image to the device’s framebuffer, and tweeted it the other day.

We are hard at work right now, so sit tight. We plan for the final product to be a program that will not even require the device to be put in DFU, just recovery mode, and it can do that automatically if you plug in a device that is not yet in recovery mode. It will then do on-the-fly patching of the current running iBoot / iBEC / iBSS, decrypt and patch the LLB, iBoot, and DeviceTree in NOR, then reflash them. After this, it will load the kernel from the fs, decrypt and patch it, then use it to boot a very small ramdisk to perform the jailbreak steps that need to be done at filesystem level.
Again, hang tight, it will be worth it ![]()

i did own an ipod touch 2g and it was great to see that the chronic dev led the jailbreak right to the iphone dev. Unfortunetly my ipod was stolen in july after i had jailbroken and just fully hacked it up. And i just want to say thank you for trying to jailbreak the ipod touch 3g when the iphone dev team makes no effort

Hey you guys!
Thanks for making such jailbreaking softwares!
And just a question. Will the GreenPois0n work for iPod Touches with model “MC”?
Anyways, thanks again and good luck with GreenPois0n!

You guys rock. Thanks for your efforts!

Nice work ! Take your time and make it easy for all of us

GreenPo1son will be released as a tethered jailbreak.
All those who are waiting – get ready to be disappointed. Why do you think its taking ages to make a untethered JB. Its very hard (nearly impossible)to jailbreak the new boot rom. PERIOD
December 29th, 2009 at 4:02 am
First of all, good job!!!
Then, i want to know f, like Blackra1n we’ll need de patch our iPhones and iPod Touch on every reboot we’ll have to do…
Thanks

Sorry guys, but, chronic dev is full of
VaporWare..
dont donate until they release a working
product
Cussing me out wont change the fact that
Chronic Dev has released NOTHING but
Vapor

Tethered!!! What?, why would I use Chronic Dev if the jailbreak is still tethered? Blackra1n already works with ipt3 tethered, why release another jailbreak if it doesn’t accomplish anything new? I have heard that greenpo1son would be untethered but I have no solid facts.
January 3rd, 2010 at 3:08 am
Fuck off fake dev dudes. Stop saying its tethered if their blog has already claimed it will be untethered
January 9th, 2010 at 5:29 am
Yeah seriously fake dev guy, fuck off you douche.
February 5th, 2010 at 3:04 pm
Chronic-Dev is a scammer.
There is NO GreenPoison.
And hes very rude.
Blackra1n works fine.
February 5th, 2010 at 8:59 pm
What’s the point of a tethered jailbreak? It will be the same thing as Blacksh1t, what is the point?
February 11th, 2010 at 4:18 pm
Awesome
March 28th, 2010 at 10:20 am
will it be untethered or not
March 28th, 2010 at 11:51 am
Yes it will be untethered but if you have been up to date with the scene, geo hot just showed off his untethered jailbreak the other day for all new iphones and ipod touches.
March 29th, 2010 at 3:33 pm

March 30th, 2010 at 6:12 pm
Awww man a race between this and blackra1n I don’t care who releases first but someone please release it I have being waiting for this jailbreak since July
April 12th, 2010 at 4:33 pm
I just bought my iphone yesterday and I’ve been waiting forever to get one. I also have been wanting to jailbreak it, but unfortunately It came with the 3.1.3 software with the newer bootrom. I wish you guys with speedy success while i wait patiently for a iphone 3gs jailbreak (or should i say a little impatiently
)
April 21st, 2010 at 5:47 pm
This better jailbreak 3.1.3 on all 3g itouchs
April 26th, 2010 at 6:57 pm
My new iPod touch 3G came with the 3.1.3 firmware and I’m waiting for the jailbreak and please tell me if green poison isn’t an urban legend???
April 28th, 2010 at 9:00 pm
Itouch 3.1.3 jailbreak “Gp” will be released after the Ipad with 3.1.3 firmware is released. This is so that ipads can also be jailbroken, if they release it before Apple will have time to fix then ipad so it cannot be jailbroken.
April 28th, 2010 at 11:24 pm
geohotz please help us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
or you can’t
