TinyUmbrella has been updated to v5.00.05 with support for iOS 4.3.4. Apple came out with their ‘fix’ for the pdf vulnerability that JailbreakMe 3.0 uses to jailbreak devices. But @comex has released a much better fix for the vulnerability which also incidentally allows you to stay jailbroken. TinyUmbrella can save 4.3.4 SHSHs (as well as the other ones Apple is still signing). So grab the latest if you want to save 4.3.4 for nothing else than for the sake of completeness. » TinyUmbrella v5.00.05 Released With iOS 4.3.4 Support [jailbreak]

JailbreakMe 3.0 will be released soon and is able to jailbreak the iPad 2 on iOS 4.3.3. But While in beta testing it has been leaked by one of the private beta testers. “JailbreakMe 3.0 is almost ready and release seems imminent. The delay in  release is due to unionfs which comex wanted to get on JailbreakMe 3.0 to make jailbreak process faster. During the private beta testing phase, one of the private beta testers has leaked the iPad 2 jailbreak on iOS 4.3.3-4.3 before the official release. The video uploaded on Youtube demonstrates iPad 2 jailbreak on iOS 4.3 using JailbreakMe 3.0.” Check the movie after the break. » JailbreakMe PDF Files To Jailbreak iPad 2 Has Been Leaked!

Christmas 2010 will be a good Christmas for iOS 4.2.1 users. iCykey sended a tweet to Comex saying “I want a 4.2.1 untethered jailbreak for Christmas :P” Comex responded with “you’ll get it”. We don’t know when Comex will release his new jailbreak exactly but, we do know that you probably need the SHSH-data from iOS 3.2.2 (iPad) or iOS 4.1 to jailbreak iSO 4.2.1. I will keep you updated when more information will be released.

MuscleNerd from the Dev-Team posted an interesting tweet on his Twitter page, saying it will be possible to jailbreaks all future A4 firmware’s. “Think we’ve figured out a way to extend PwnageTool+limera1n+@comex hacks to untethered JBs for all future A4 firmwares” says MuscleNerd. » Untethered Jailbreaks For All Future A4 Firmware’s [jailbreak]
