As one knows few days ago Apple released an update to iOS 4.3.3 which solve the location tracking issue.
As I mentioned before apple did not fix the bug founded by @i0nic, which brings untether jailbreak to iOS 4.3.3. As I predicted Dev-Team and iH8sn0w update their jailbreaking tools (redsn0w, pwnageTool, and sn0wbreeze) to support this version.
redsn0w 0.9.6 rc15 , pwnageTool 4.3.3, sn0wbreeze 2.7 are the tools you can use for jailbreaking all iDevices (expect iPad2) running iOS 4.3.3 (4.2.8 for Verizon iPhone 4). Download links could be found under our download section.
Ultrasn0w also updated to support this version. You can find it in Cydia.
As before I just put the links to the instructions from other sites instead of duplicating the world. I think it is much more environmental friendly!
As I noted before newly released iOS 4.3.3 still jailbreakable using @i0nic exploit which used in the latest version of jailbreaking tools (redsn0w, pwnageTool and sn0wbreeze) so users should wait for new version of these tools to support iOS 4.3.3. But there is good news for those who can’t wait for them, using redsn0w 0.9.6 rc14 you can jailbreak your device. You need to have iOS 4.3.2 iPSW (here you can find it). Now just run redsn0w and point it to iOS 4.3.2 (yes it’s correct 4.3.2 ) and enjoy.
Apple released iOS 4.3.3 (4.2.8 for iPhone 4 Verizon) which solves location tracking issue. You need iTunes 10.2.2 for this version of iOS.
According to a tweet by @comex it’s still unvarialbe to @i0n1c exploit. It means that it’s jailbreakable but not now. redsn0w, pwnageTool (by Dev-Team) and sn0wbreeze (iH8sn0w) will update shortly (I think in next 2 days) to support this version. So jailbreakers should wait until the releases of this tools.
I will post the latest news about the jailbreak status of this version, come back and check CaziSoft later for more updates and news. For now I just list direct download links. If your internet connection is too slow as mine, you can start download today to save your time.
Yesterday iH8Sn0w and Pushfix have released a Cydia package to untether your currently tethered Verizon 4.2.7 iPhone. This package will work for those who have jailbroken by pointing RedSn0w to the 4.2.6 ipsw.
originally ordered a Verizon iPhone 4 for my upcoming SHSH blobs dumper. Then I + many others on twitter realized that an untether was not available for 4.2.7. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been sick and didn’t do much, but today I was finally able to get the strength to work on this Verizon untether. Since i0n1c’s payload is not easily reversible, I went to previous exploits. After trying, pod2g’s + posixninja’s kernel exploit for 4.2.x is STILL in 4.2.7! After some more work, I managed to get this thing untethered!
You need to add the pushfix repository [http://cydia.pushfix.info] to Cydia and then install the “Verizon Untether for 4.2.7″ package.
For those who did not jailbreak their Verzion iPhone 4 yet, iH8sn0w release a newer version of sn0wbreeze to support it. You can download it from iH8sn0w website.
The iPhone DevTeam has update PwnageTool to ver 4.3.2 which support iOS 4.3.2 (Untethered). They recently update redsn0w to support iOS 4.3.2 but redsn0w can’t prevent baseband upgrade. Unfortunately iPad2 not supported in this version.
Ultrasn0w also update to version 1.2.2. You can install it via Cydia.
Only a few weeks after the 4.3.1 untether created by @i0n1c was released, Apple pushed out firmware 4.3.2. Thankfully, it appears Apple didn’t have a chance to fix the hole used by @i0n1c’s untether, so he ported his code over to 4.3.2’s kernel. Today’s redsn0w has been updated to include it. The 4.3.2 untether works on all devices that actually support 4.3.2 except for the iPad2: iPhone 3GS iPhone4 (GSM) iPod touch 3G iPod touch 4G iPad1

This update contains improvements and other bug fixes including:
iPhone 4 verizon also updates to iOS 4.2.7 but I can’t find any notes about it.
You can find more information about security updates here on apple support site
Same as newest version of redsn0w Sn0wbreeze 2.5.1 also released to support custom animated boot logo and some bug fixes. The jailbreak process is the same you can find the tutorials here. The new version also support iOS 4.3 on AppleTV 2G.
Change Log for sn0wbreeze 2.5.1
Cydia 1.1.1 is now pre-installed. iPhone 3GS users can now flash the iPad 06.15.00 baseband. Animate (Animated Boot Logos) by the Chronic Dev-Team is now supported. Added afc2 * Apple TV 2 is now fully supported. Added Apple TV 2 DFU Instructions. YouTube issues resolved on hacktivated devices. iPhone 3GS old-bootrom issues fixed (Error 37).
Dev -Team update redsn0w to version 0.9.6rc11 which added custom animated boot logo and some more bug fixes.
From the Dev Team blog,
Those running redsn0w may have noticed we enabled too many Settings options in some versions of the jailbreak (for instance, what you want your side switch to do, even if you have no side switch because you’re not using an iPad). Release rc10 of redsn0w corrects that (you can just run it over your existing jailbreak…be sure to de-select Cydia to avoid package conflicts). Along the way, we’ve also added the option to enable boot animations…these animations can be installed via Cydia, but be sure to select which animation to use via the Settings->Bootlogo setting after you’ve downloaded an animation (and again, you can just run rc10 rc11 over your existing jailbreak…be sure to de-select Cydia to avoid package conflicts).

An untether jailbreak is now available for iOS 4.3.1. This new method can jailbreak all iOS devices except iPad2 & iPhone4 CMDA (Verizon) model because they have deferent bootrom which not yet hacked. redsn0w, sn0wbreeze and pwnageTool are all updated to support iOS 4.3.1. As you know AppleTV 2G is also supported.
4.3.1 untether exploit comes courtesy of Stefan Esser (@i0n1c on twitter), a security researcher based in Germany. Stefan has a long history of vulnerability research, and ironically his first contribution to the iPhone jailbreak community was improved security — last year he beat Apple to the punch and implemented ASLR for jailbroken iPhones with his “antid0te” framework. We’re happy to see that Stefan then turned his iPhone attention over to an untethered jailbreak exploit! The 4.3.1 untether works on all devices that actually support 4.3.1 except for the iPad2: iPhone3GS iPhone4 (GSM) iPod touch 3G iPod touch 4G iPad1 AppleTV 2G (PwnageTool only for now) The reason the untether won’t work as-is on the iPad2 is that it requires a bootrom or iBoot-level exploit to install, and the iPad2 is not susceptible to either the limera1n or SHAtter bootrom exploits.
