Geohot, was booked and charged with felony marijuana possession while heading to the annual SXSW conference in Austin. Hotz was on his way to give a talk at SXSW, when he had to pass through a border patrol checkpoint in Sierra Blanca. According to a source familiar with the case, Department of Homeland Security officers brought drug dogs to each car. When the dogs barked, Hotz (and his passengers) were pulled over for more searching.

Today, we’re showing you an improved MC WhiteShadow, freestyling against Sony’s decision on taking legal action against him.
Back in October last year, we showed you a never seen before (dark)side of George ‘GeoHot’ Hotz: iPhone maestro by day, emo MC by night. Today, we’re showing you an improved MC WhiteShadow, freestyling against Sony’s decision on taking legal action against him.
the PS3 jailbreak allows you to install and run homebrew packages ( GeoHot provides test.pkg which is a splash screen ), but you can’t play backup games or pirated games.
Did you miss GeoHot? Well, he is back but this time with a jailbreak for the PS3. The PS3 jailbreak allows you to install and run homebrew packages ( GeoHot provides test.pkg which is a splash screen ), but you can’t play backup games or pirated games. Let’s take a look at how to jailbreak your PS3 after the jump…
In this tutorial we’re going to show you how to use limera1n on Mac and Windows.
GeoHot just released Limera1n for Windows, an untethered jailbreking tool for 3rd and 4th generation iOS devices running on iOS 4.0-4.1 and above. In this tutorial we’re going to show you how to use limera1n on Mac and Windows. So, let’s take a look…
Just a quick heads-up: GeoHot just dropped Limera1n for Mac.
Just a quick heads-up: GeoHot just dropped Limera1n for Mac. We’ll probably post a tutorial on how to use the tool, but it’s exactly the same process as the Windows version, so check out this tutorial.
The iPhone DevTeam just announced that they ported GeoHot’s bootrom exploit into PwnageTool. The new version of the tool should drop Sunday, but still it’s just an ETA.

PwnageTool is a jailbreaking tool for Mac, which you can use to create custom firmwares in order to jailbreak your iOS devices. In case of the iPhone, a custom firmware will not update the baseband hence you can update to a higher version of iOS and still unlock it. So far, you can only update to iOS 4.1 and still preserve your baseband, ONLY through TinyUmbrella AND ONLY for iPhone 4. Find out how…
Bootlogo’s and verbose boot were not possible, (at least not possible as we know them) because the bootchain is actually not touched (LLB and iBoot are being code signed and well).
Both greenpois0n and limera1n use the same bootrom exploit and pretty much the same way of applying the jailbreak to your device. Geohot’s bootrom exploit is a tethered exploit, meaning that it is not able of booting a patched bootchain. So, what they actually do is use this bootrom exploit as an “injection vector” in order to apply kernel patches (userland jailbreak).
