iH8Sn0w and XanderKitteh have demonstrated an untethered jailbreak of iOS 8.1.1. The pair posted a video to YouTube which shows an iPad running Cydia and verbose booting with a custom boot logo.
The two hackers have been working on the jailbreak since last Friday. Unfortunately, their current jailbreak only works with 30 pin devices due to no serial over Lightning.
Hopefully, continued progress will be made.
Been working on this since last Friday with @XanderKitteh (really awesome dude). This uses some new research between the two of us (not bootrom related[aw ik], but not HFS either). Still only limited to working with 30pin devices due to no serial over lightning 🙁
This does not mean a public release of something jailbreaking-related is coming from me anytime soon. So don’t update.
iOS 8.2 beta1 went live yesterday. I’ll look into that after I catch up on some school assignments I pushed to the side last weekend 😛
