Pod2g Confirms iOS 6, iOS 6.1 Beta 4 Untethered Jailbreak

[Update]: Evad3rs team teases Super Bowl Sunday as iOS 6.1 Jailbreak Launch day.

Well known iOS security researcher Pod2g has confirmed that a working untethered iOS 6 jailbreak is ready and would be released as soon as iOS 6.1 GM is released.

In an interview with iDigitalTimes, the security researcher has revealed that they are already in possession of a functional untethered iOS 6 and iOS 6.1 beta 4 jailbreak and majority of the work has been done by @planetbeing and @pimskeks. "6.0 is jailbroken, 6.1 beta 4 also. Now we are waiting 6.1 to confirm and release," said the researcher.

"For your information and this is important to me that everybody knows about it also, this jailbreak will be @planetbeing and @pimskeks," he added.

He said that the jailbreak would have been possible without him as he came into the iOS 6 jailbreak scene at a later stage and provided pointers that pushed the other researchers to the maximum. "I arrived at the end, gave ideas that pushed them to their maximum, I kinda unblocked the situation, but it would certainly have happened without me helping", said Cyril.

Pod2g said that he isn’t as involved as the other guys in the development of the jailbreak because of his work but, is responsible for handling communications, websites and some development. He said that @planetbeing was the man behind this particular jailbreak. "Now I am helping as much as I can in terms of communication, websites, and also development, but I was not involved the same way as previous, focused on my work and all.”

The team behind the iOS 6 jailbreak is Evad3rs Dev-Team and it consists of Planetbeing, Pimskeks, MuscleNerd and Pod2g.
