After more than 15 years covering everything Apple, it’s with a heavy heart we announce that we will no longer be publishing new content on iMore and the iMore forums will be closing as of November 1st, 2024.
Maybe a few days a jailbreak will be out if not a few hours to a day after release but a tethered one because they want to see if apple will update yet again when the iPhone is officially released
Considering that the Chronic Dev Team has announced at least five jailbreak exploits, I don't think you'll have to wait very long at all. What jeffrey101 was saying, I think, is that the first one might be tethered in case Apple is ready with a quick update. That way we don't burn an untethered exploit on a jb that won't last.
redsn0w Dev-Team Blog - redsn0w iOS5beta can already tether JB 5.0GM (select beta7 IPSW for now though, til update)
I wish the Dev teams wouldn't announce stuff life that. Cause it motivates Apple to patch those exploits and use them as titled security patch updates. Seems also theres alot more Iphone Dev Teams than Apple has working for them. And for modification purposes Apple is behind the Dev Teams. But really, when a dev team announces 5 exploits month before a release. Guarantee some people in Apples tech department are scrambling to figure out how to fix it. Like garbage updates like 4.3.5.
