iPhone OS 3.0 Jailbreak Is Delayed

Thu, Jun 18, 2009

I know that all of you are waiting for the official iPhone OS 3.0 jailbreak. I am too. Dev-Team announced that it will come this week and since they announced that iPhone OS 3.0 official unlock will be available on friday we all assumed that the jailbreak will come wednesday night or at least thursday morning (at least i was ).

iPhone Dev-Team just announced new minor problems that they are trying to fix, and they probably will release a preliminary jailbreak for those of you who cant wait anymore… :

* We have two issues that we’ve been trying to resolve:

1. There are new 3.0 complications with YouTube.app if you’re on a hacktivated (unofficially activated) device

2. There’s a bug in Apple’s new version of asr that our custom IPSW’s are tickling and causing crashes on, on some devices. (For the nerdy or curious among us, the details of that bug were tweeted by planetbeing a month ago.)

* As of Thursday morning we now have a workaround for #2. For #1, we’ll try our best to get it fixed but we may end up releasing a preliminary jailbreak in which YouTube doesn’t work for hacktivated devices, and then follow that up with a more complete jailbreak when we can.
