Earlier today pod2g (a highly revered iOS security expert and hacker that’s part of the “Super Dev Team” working on the iOS 5.0.1 Jailbreak for the two A5-based devices) uploaded a quick video made by @DHowett (a member of The Chronic Dev Team) demonstrating the iPhone 4S untethered 5.0.1 Jailbreak.
In the video, embedded above, @DHowett proves that the iPhone 4S does indeed have an untethered Jailbreak by opening Cydia and rebooting without the assistance of a computer.
From pod2g’s blog:
iPhone 4S 5.0.1 untethered
My friend @DHowett made a video of an untethered 4S iPhone 4,1 running iOS 5.0.1 some days ago.@DHowett is a famous iOS developer and a member of the Chronic Dev Team.Only a few to wait now.
Even though pod2g said “Only a few to wait now” in his latest entry, there isn’t an estimated release date – stay tuned for more updates related to the status of the Untethered iPhone 4S and iPad 2 Jailbreak!
