Dev Team Releases 4.0 3G Beta Jailbreak For Cydia Devs

April 15, 2010 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

This is a beta release of redsn0w targeted at developers of jailbroken apps. It uses the same pwnage2 DFU-mode exploit that we’ve been using since the 2.x days.

First it was the whole jailbroken iphone in a commercial click here if you missed it and now this. It seems jailbreaking the iPhone is becoming more common to the public. Me2600 a fellow iphone user was at bestbuy going on about his day and to his surprise he saw an iphone on display, yes yes I know we all see iphones on display but to his surprise this one was jailbroken with Rockapp and Mywi installed. All I can think is way to go best buy employee who had to have taken the time to jailbreak, browse for and install the apps on the iphone then put it on display for the world to see. May I also recommend installing some other cool apps that might catch peoples attention such as nes or intelliscreeen.
