Jailbreak fans has received iOS 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak for A4 iDevices as new year's gift. The iPhone Dev Team and Chronic Dev Team released Corona 5.0.1 and Redsn0w 0.9.10b3, respectively, based on the work of the French hacker pod2g.Among the jailbreakers, there are two outstanding hackers, MuscleNerd and pod2g, but pod2g is the first to release the iOS 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak. And now the hacker has also released the details on Corona.

Chronic Dev Team member pod2g has an interesting New Year gift for his fans - the French hacker has uploaded his blog with juicy details of Corona, the untethered jailbreak for non-A5 devices that are running on iOS 5.0.1, but many of his followers did not appreciate his hard work and criticized him instead for not releasing A5 jailbreak yet.

Pod2g, the French hacker of the Chronic Dev-team, who said he would be working full-time on the A5 jailbreak and transferred all the responsibilities of the A4 untethered jailbreak to the Chronic Dev-team, to help him focus on the declared task, recently updated his blog. Unfortunately, to the disappointment of A5 users, there is no mention of the new jailbreak in the post.

Ever since it has been reported that Apple will hold an important media event in New York City later this month, tech geeks have been wondering what the company is going to announce at the event.

Other than the newly released iOS 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak for A4 devices, another issue that is creating much buzz around the tech world these days is Apple's next generation iPad aka iPad 3. The device, which is highly expected to launch towards the end of this month, is rumored to arrive in two sizes and have a set of enhanced features.

The A4 device exclusive exploit has already been made public, but very few are aware about what really goes behind the entire process. In a blog post, Pod2g revealed key details related to the development of the untethered iOS 5.0.1 jailbreak and Corona.

Apple iPhone 5 rumors have been continuously circulating on the Internet, with the most recent one, from Barclays Capital, stating the iPhone is Apple's largest and most profitable product line.

According to the iPhone Dev Team, it has incorporated work by Pod2g in creating the first widely and freely available untethered jailbreak for devices powered by iOS 5.0.1 devices using Apple’s A4 processor.

Apple's $99 set-top box, the Apple TV, has been coaxed into running full screen iOS apps by an enterprising hacker named Steve Troughton-Smith.

Take a look at the specifications of LG Nitro HD and Apple iPhone 4S:

Apple Inc. has more than $81 billion of cash on its books with about one-third held in the U.S. This is because of its continuing success of products like iPhone, iPad, iPod and Mac. So what will Apple do with all the cash hoard?

As a result of the efforts of pod2g and the iPhone Dev-Team it is now possible to jailbreak the iPhone 4 and all models of the Phone 3GS untethered. However those using the latest redsn0w untethered iOS 5.0.1 jailbreak have been facing an unexpected consequence that iBooks are ceasing to work.

The developers of the Apple TV MobileX project have just released a new, longer, more in-depth video explaining a jailbroken Apple TV running iOS apps running at 720p resolution.

Speculations are rife that Apple is likely to launch its next generation iPad - aka iPad 3 - with A6 processors onboard, later this month. In addition, rumors about the Apple iPhone 5 (or whatever the company decides to call it), are also gathering momentum indicating a launch later this year.

Siri, the voice-controlled, intelligent, personal assistant that has become the most popular feature of iPhone 4S, is useful and will try to answer all your questions. But don't push it too far or else, it might hurl curses at you, as a 10-year-old British kid found out, to the dismay of his parents.

The iOS 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak, released by iPhone Dev Team (Corona 5.0.1) and Chronic Dev Team (RedSn0w 9.10b) based on the French hacker pod2g's work, has been made available on iPhone3GS, iPhone4, iPhone4-CDMA, iPad, iPod Touch 3G and iPod touch 4G. Many people have downloaded and installed the untethered jailbreak, but some of them have encountered various kinds of problems.

As 2011 counts down to its last few hours, there will be a number of people working on Apple's forthcoming mobile operating system - the company themselves, the product users and, obviously, iOS hackers.

Many users, who had already overwritten an earlier jailbreak and stepped into the puffed-up untethered jailbreak world, have been facing a number of crashes due to MobileSubstrate-based apps. To fix the issue, a third beta of Redsn0w - called Redsn0w 0.9.10b3 - has been released for both Mac OS X and Windows.

iPad 3 to Arrive on Steve Jobs’ Birthday?

An untethered jailbreak for Apple devices powered by the A4 processor has been released. Meanwhile, users of Apple devices running on the A5 processor are still waiting for their jailbreak. However, the release of a break for A4 devices doesn't mean the hackers' jobs are over.

When 12-year-old boy named Charlie Le Quesne got the shock of his life when the Siri app on a demo iPhone 4S told him to shut the f--k up and called him an ugly t--t when he asked it a question at an Apple store in Conventry, UK. Apple staffers have launched a full investigation, but it's likely pranksters simply reprogrammed the iPhone using Siri's naming system.
