Jailbreak iPhone 4 running 4.0.2?!

[vintagetonez]

Can someone tell me if it?s still possible to jailbreak iPhone 4 running 4.0.2?! I know we can?t with the jailbreakme website but want to know if there?s another way.

as of right now no.. hang tight for a bit

Nope. Don't update quite yet. There isn't anything that they really fixed, except for the jailbreak loop hole.

Too late, already did. That's why I posted asking if there is another way to jailbreak running 4.0.2.

 

[markhunsaker]

Not yet. Sit tight.

looks like apple still approving 4.0.1 i just downloaded the OS and installed it via itunes on a friends iphone today and it verified and installed fine.

so download the OS, open itunes, DFU and install the OS.

than jailbreak, pdf patch via cydia. done

there is absolutely no reason to have 4.0.2.

I thought on restore, iTunes will auto-update to 4.0.2 - how do you disable that?

 

[drunken0monkey#IM]

On a Windows machine, hold the shift key while you click on restore in iTunes. This will let you select an IPSW file to use for the restore. Of course you'll first need to download the 4.0.1 IPSW for your phone (Google will help you find one).

I've downloaded iOS 4.0.1 after installing 4.0.2. However when I try to install it it says that it is incompatible How can I fix this?

 

[Mhudson42484]

I am using the iPhone 4 Ipsw

From what I read on macrumors, looks like Apple now stopped signing = allowing you to install 4.0.1 firmware. So, only way to install a earlier firmware, before 4.0.2, is to use your saved SHSH to downgrade. If you don't know how google: SHSH + downgrade.

 

[Mhudson42484]

Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately they sent out the patch 2 days after I got the phone and I never a chance to back up the SHSH. Oh well guess I'm stuck waiting for the next jailbreak.

 

[Mhudson42484]

Just checking in to see if anyone has heard anything about a new 4.0.2 jailbreak for the iPhone 4.

They wont jailbreak 4.0.2. You will have to wait until 4.1 at the very earliest.

They will not jailbreak "jb fix" releases of firmware because they believe it only benefits Apple to play that much of a cat and mouse game...

I downloaded a copy of the 4.0.1 IPSW from Apple and stashed it on my HD so I have a clean copy just in case. Verified file size and SHA1 hash, so I know it's good. My SHSH blobs are saved with Cydia. You never know, right?

I just bought a 3GS hoping to jailbreak/unlock, then just pop in my current TMobile SIM card. The phone is running 4.0.2 and apparently there's no jb/ul released yet? I tried downgrading but it's just not working (error 3194).

1- should I sit tight and wait for jb/ul 4.0.2 ?

2- will I be able to ub/ul without a SIM card or using my Tmobile SIM?

1 you have no choice but to wait

2 depends on the next jailbreak tool released if it does hacktivation

So if the next release does hactivation then I'm good to go? And if not, can I insert a friend's ATT Sim card and still jb/ul?

Also, I know it's all guessing but about how long until the 4.0.2 jb/ul release? Are we talking 1 week, 1 month, longer? Thanks!

 

[markhunsaker]

I heard that the next jailbreak won't be until 4.1. They are tired of playing cat and mouse.

There will not be one for 4.0.2 as been previouslt said here and in other threads so many times.

Yes to the friends att sim part
