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 |

+ | :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. --[[User:Jacob|Jacob]] 18:09, 7 March 2012 (MST) |

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)
