Dev Team Puts Extras into Redsn0w Jailbreak via Limera1n Exploit
A new version of the redsn0w jailbreak utility from the iPhone Dev Team is available for download packing a bunch of new features, including custom bootlogos for iPhone and iPod touch, the ability to enter DFU mode and restore to a custom jailbreak made on a Mac, and more.
The infamous team of hackers acknowledges in a recent blog post that “geohot’s recent limera1n exploit for iPhone3GS/iPhone4/iPad/ipt3g/ipt4g/atv2g will be very beneficial to jailbreakers and unlockers for the next few months (at least).”
The team notes that “geohot’s limera1n program and the alternative greenpois1on program both use his same exploit (although greenpois0n refuses to tell you that, FWIW), and hopefully SHAtter can be saved for some later device.” According to the post, geohot’s limera1n exploit has been incorporated into redsn0w, which allowed the Dev Team to introduce several new features.
