iPad 3 Jailbreak is available with @i0n1c, No Public Release

2 Replies

This might sound very strange that the latest iOS 5.1.1 released by Apple few hours back got PWNED. The new version of iOS 5.1.1 got Jailbroken on iPad 3 which might sound impossible and might increase hopes among users. The news is true about the iPad 3 Jailbreak on iOS 5.1.1. The old hacker does the Jailbreak and a security researcher called i0n1c (Steffan Easer), who has now become a villain in the Jailbreak community by not releasing the Jailbreak for iPad 3 and previous devices. He is no doubt against all kind of piracy’s like @pod2g, the person behind the untethered Jailbreak for iPad 2 and iPhone 4S. They both are not related with each other. @pod2g and @i0n1c are on different teams with same mission. The mission is to make Jailbreak for the latest iOS versions.

The only difference between both of them is that, @pod2g releases for public and @i0n1c keeps for him self and enjoys. This is something strange.

Now coming to the point, @i0n1c accidentally Tweeted that, while he was asleep, his Girlfriend updated his iPad 3 on to iOS 5.1.1 and he some how Jailbreaked it. This is something really crazy and funny.

Ohhh no while I was sleeping my girlfriend accidentally upgraded my iPad 3 to iOS 5.1.1 – antid0te.com/ipad3,3_5.1.1_…

— Stefan Esser (@i0n1c) May 7, 2012

He showed the proof of the Jailbreak with the help of Cydia, showing his iOS version and iPad model. See the proof below:

Now don’t get excited after seeing the above image because @i0n1c has no plans for releasing the Jailbreak for public. Still, the exploit he founded on iOS 5.1 to Jailbreak is functioning on iOS 5.1.1, this means that Apple hasn’t yet fixed the Jailbreak exploit in their new iOS 5.1.1 update.

Meanwhile, the Hacker, @pod2g is actively working on the untethered jailbreak for iPad 3, iPad 2, iPhone 4S and older devices. Recently he showed some significant progress regarding the Untethered Jailbreak for iPhone 4. He tweeted on his Twitter account stating that his iPhone 4 is now untethered jailbroken on iOS 5.1. Still, unlockers and jailbreakers should stay away from this and upcoming future updates by Apple.

The iTheif Steals $57,000 Worth of iPad’s from Different Cities (Video)

1 Reply

If you have ever bought an iPad 2, you must be aware of the price tag of it. The normal iPad 2 costs about $500 that is only WIFI model. Rest is above $500, depending on the model you want to buy. But one iTheif is not willing to pay the price for the iPad 2’s. So the iTheif simply checks out by taking the iPad 2’s in a bag with the perfect technique known as stealing. The iTheif was caught on video surveillance cameras installed in different giant retail stores across many different cities located in North Texas, where the iTheif stole the iPad 2’s. The amazing thing is that the iTheif is a woman of age about 35-40 approx.

According to the police, this woman has stolen about 100 or $57,000 worth iPad 2’s. The woman has affected 36 cities in North Texas out of which 28 iPad 2’s were stole from Wal-Mart, the giant retailer and remaining 8 from the Target Store. She has stolen about 100 iPad 2’s from 36 cities.

According to WFAA,

She usually strikes in the early hours of the morning. Police say she does the same thing every time, leaving groceries at the counter and walking out of the store with two or three iPads.

Her latest hit came last week at a Sherman Wal-Mart. The surveillance video shows how it happened.

This is how the theft takes place. The woman fills up her shopping cart and goes out for a checkout on counter. Then she says at the counter that she needs to go to electronic section to take three iPad 2’s leaving the grocery behind for packaging. Then she comes back to the counter and places the three iPad 2’s for check out, the clerk on the counter scans the three iPad 2’s for the check out and starts to scan the rest of the items. In the meantime, the lady grabs the bag in which the iPad 2’s are placed and put them in the toed bag that she had brought with her. Then she tells the cashier that she is going to get the money back from her car and never turns back.

Amazingly, the same lady is wanted in different crimes all over North Texas and Oklahoma, from Ardmore to the north, to Sherman and Collin County cities like Plano, McKinney and Allen. She has also struck in Rockwall and Terrell, in Lewisville and Denton and in Cedar Hill and Corsicana.

If you know about this woman or have came across her, so you are requested to contact Detective Rob Ballew with the Criminal Investigation Division of the Sherman Police Department at 903-892-7246 to help them out to hunt down this woman and stop the game that she has started.

Pod2g Makes iOS 5.1 Untethered Jailbreak Successful on his iPhone 4, Release Near

The New iPhone Will Carry a 4-inch Screen With Physical Changes

Leave a Reply

The rumors of the New iPhone are coming since last year and even before that. Every time, when we hear anything on the release of something by Apple, we expect that they would be unveiling iPhone 5. It happened with every one when Apple was about to unveil iPhone 4S and rumors were high for the iPhone 5. The rumors will go on for iPhone 5 until it is not unveiled. Like this we today once again came across the name of the iPhone 5 from Jeremy Horwitz, The Editor-in-Chief at iLounge. The claims made by him for the iPhone 5 are somewhat matching to the early reports for the iPhone 5 to carry a 4.6-inch screen.

This time there is a twist in the rumor. The New iPhone is said to be breaking the past trend of 3.5-inch screen and will be thinner than the previous versions of iPhone. The design of the new iPhone with Physical body changes is also expected. The New iPhone is expected to have a metallic back body and an amazing larger four inch screen display which Steve Jobs never wanted to have due to the design becomes less handy. To make things go on the right path, Apple is expected to make he New iPhone with Gorilla Glass 2, that is more handy and strength full. Last but not least, the dock connector for the iPhone would also be changed with the design.

Now coming towards the claim of iLounge over the new iPhone suggest that it will carry a metallic backside, the size of the iPhone will measure 125mm by 5.85mm by 7.4mm. If we compare to existing iPhone 4S/4, it makes exactly 10mm taller and nearly 2mm thinner.

According to our source, Apple will make one major change to the rear casing, adding a metal panel to the central back of the new iPhone. This panel will be flat, not curved, and metal, not ceramic. Our artist’s rendition provides a rough idea of what this change will look like; it echoes the current-generation iMac design, to be sure.

iLounge believes that Apple is going to make the New iPhone like iMac design. This means that the previous mockups for the iPhone 5 are somewhat similar to the upcoming release, as they were shaped like the iMac Design.

iLounge also notes that the aspect ratio of the screen would be changed in this upcoming release because the screen would be of four inch and it will be using Gorilla Glass 2 to make the iPhone thinner.

As the new iPhone won’t widen, this appears to confirm that Apple will change the new iPhone’s aspect ratio for the first time since the original iPhone was introduced in 2007, adding additional pixels to the top and bottom of the screen. A change of this sort took place between the fourth and fifth generations of the iPod nano, but didn’t impact any third-party software. This obviously will.

In last, iLounge states that the new iPhone would be carrying a thinner charging port that would be a bit bigger than the speakers in its surroundings. This means that the charging port would also be different from the iPhone 4/4S. It is expected that Apple might be planning to jump off from 30-pin dock connector to a 16-pin dock connector.

It’s believed to have fewer pins than the prior 30-pin Dock Connector, perhaps only 16, and the shape of the hole is apparently closer to a pill shape than the prior rounded rectangle. It will be used on all upcoming devices, including an update to the iPod touch that’s expected this year, and will almost certainly feature a similarly updated screen and CPU.

Till now it is very early to say anything regarding the New iPhone or the iPhone 5. Anyhow it is notified that the iLounge sources are reliable and the new reported by them is legit. The WWDC 12 is almost around the corner and we will come to know about what Apple has planned for future. Don’t forget to hook up for the WWDC 12 because that is the place where the innovation begins.

As far as the 4-inch screen is considered, we will see when we have it on how it works. The late C.E.O of Apple, Steve Jobs said once in his life that:

“Design is not how it looks like, Design is how it works”.

Now we have to see that how the design works with a 4-inch screen. What do you think about the new 4-inch screen? Would it be feasible for you to carry the 4-inch iPhone with you?
