GreenPois0n for iOS 4.2.1 Jailbreak Release Sooner Than You Think!

Great news from the Chronic Dev Team where Joshua Hill their iPhone developer publicly announce that he's working on a release for the 4.2.1 GreenPois0n jailbreak. That of course after he finished adding the new sandbox patches.

Taken from his recent tweets this release of GreenPois0n though will probably be a tethered jailbreak, just like the recent release of Redsn0w 0.9.6b6. So the jailbreak will only probably applies to the new devices like: iPhone 3GS (new bootrom), iPhone 4, iPad, iPod touch 2G (MC Model), iPod touch 3G and the iPod touch 4G. Older devices like iPhone 3GS (old bootrom), iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G (Non-MC Model) can be jailbroken-untethered right now using tools such as Redsn0w 0.9.6b6. For untethered jailbreak, you will have to use Redsn0w 0.9.7 which requires you to have SHSH blobs of iOS 4.2b3 saved. For newly bought devices that never been jailbreak before, you will have to wait for Comex’s untethered jailbreak tool which is probably released after the next version of the firmware released by Apple.
