So, they’ve finally done it. It’s not automated, because it’s a tethered jailbreak: ie. every time you reboot, you have to go through this whole process again, but it’s a jailbreak. Dev Team is still working on unlocking the bootrom. When they do that, they’ll automate the process.
It is not easy, but it is possible. I still recommend waiting for some program from The Dev Team.
We take no responsibility. Read everything before start doing something.Downloads:
