iedere dag worden we warm gehouden met meldingen dat de jailbreak er toch echt aan zit te komen, vandaag iets meer informatie over de diverse vormen (ja dat is meervoud) die deze jailbreak zal aannemen. Het ziet er naar uit dat deze jailbreak iets meer zak omvatten dan eerdere jailbreaks, wat betekent dat Apple’s beveiliging steeds strakker aan het worden is. (wat vermoedelijk te danken is aan het aannemen van hackers als Geohot en p0sixninja) De jailbreak is nu in essentie klaar en nu is men voornamelijk nog bezig met het zoeken en verhelpen van bugs.
Lees hieronder de statement over de vormen die deze jailbreak zal nemen:
Jailbreak programs:
To be as flexible as possible, the A5 version of the corona jailbreak will take multiple forms:
- Chronic Dev have incorporated the overall flow into a GUI that runs on your Mac or PC
- iPhone Dev have incorporated the exact same flow into a command-line interface (CLI). This will allow us to help users through individual steps of the jailbreak manually, to both help the user and help improve the overall flow. Although the CLI will also allow the user to perform the entire jailbreak from beginning to end, we anticipate it will be more useful in debugging the occasional errors. The CLI currently has over 20 individual options (in addition to the single “jailbreak” option) that should be useful during debug after the GUI release.
- Once all the bugs in the flow are worked out, we’ll also incorporate it into the redsn0w GUI (but still leave the CLI freely available too). In order to maximize the chances of the jailbreak working for everyone, the redsn0w GUI will use native Apple iTunes libraries – this technique is slightly different than how the Chronic Dev GUI handles communications, and should provide nice combined coverage for all the odd computer configurations out there.
Even geduld dus nog!
