Limera1n - Let It Ra1n...!!

• There are things which you cannot wait and one of them is Jailbreak the iPhone 4 iOS 4.1. I have waited this for so long and as mentioned in my previous post - We have been "GreenPois0ned"..!
• Since Geohot have released its Limera1n solution and GreenPois0n has simply delayed their release because the Dev Team don't want to expose two exploits at the same time, thus, there is no other way but to "Make It Ra1n"...!
• I encountered a slight problem when I restore from my iOS 4.0.2 to iOS 4.1, the iPhone 4 always have an unknown error 1004 and showed the iTunes cable. Restoring it again doesn't work. Finally, I tried Tiny Umbrella to "Kick Device Out of Recovery". Finally, I managed to restore from my backup.

HERE ARE THE STEPS:

1. Download Limera1n for Windows here.
2. Link your iPhone using the USB with your PC and hit Make it ra1n when a prompter appears.
3. As the device enters the Recovery mode, hold the Home + Power button and then release thePower button. This would then initiate the DFU mode.
4. With the above procedures performed you will now see the Limera1n logo on the iPhone screen. It is here that Limera1n will take charge and Jailbreak your iPhone for good.
5. You can then start the Limer1n app and run Cydia. Upon the completion of the Cydia installation restart your iPhone and praise Geohot for this jailbreak!

GreenPois0n Will Be Delayed - Thanks to Limera1n !!

1. This is what happens when Chronic Dev Team take their time to launch the long awaited GreenPois0n.
2. Geohot quickly beat the Dev Team with his Limera1n Jailbreak tool.
3. It seems that MuscleNerd and comex will delay GreenPois0n while implementing the Limera1n exploit.
4. With this new annoucement, most probably a lot of GreenPois0n fans will take the plunge and use Limera1n.

Here's a youtube video posted today.

Limera1n - A Word of Caution

Here's some words of caution from Dev Team which was posted today:

After a few very dramatic days in the jailbreak community, geohot has come out of nowhere to release limera1n.  It’s a bootrom-level jailbreak that works on the iPhone3GS, iPhone4, iPod touch 3G, iPod touch 4G, the iPad, and (technically) the AppleTV 2G.

DO NOT USE LIMERA1N IF YOU USE THE ULTRASN0W CARRIER UNLOCK — wait for PwnageTool to incorporate the limera1n exploit.  This is so that you can avoid updating your baseband and losing the unlock (possibly forever).

Limera1n uses a different exploit than SHAtter, and in fact covers more devices.  Although some may question geohot’s dramatic and competitive style, he obviously does have considerable skill pulling this together in just over a day (although he’s had the underlying exploit for months).  Credit also goes to @comex, who provides the untethered aspect of limera1n via another one of his growing list of kernel hacks.

The release of limera1n has (hopefully!) averted the burning of 2 bootrom holes at once (both his and SHAtter).  Releasing SHAtter now would be a complete waste of a perfectly good bootrom hole in light of limera1n, and so it can be held until Apple closes limera1n’s hole.  While there’s no guarantee that Apple won’t also close SHAtter by then, it provides a ray of hope for devices after Apple’s bootrom respin.  Meanwhile, look for alternate implementations of the limera1n exploit in greenpois0n and possibly other tools too.

Limera1n does have some issues, and geohot typically works these out in subsequent (and rapid) releases.

Which Jailbreak To Use - GreenPois0n or Limera1n or Sn0wbreeze?

1. Suddenly, there are 3 announcements regarding the release of Jailbreak solution - GreenPois0n, Limera1n and Sn0wbreeze.
2. For the past couple of months, the Jailbreak scene was focusing on GreenPois0n and finally the Chronic Dev Team announced its going to be release 10.10.10 @ 10.10 am GMT.
3. Limera1n would mess up Greenpois0n release. Thus, it is suggested to wait for Greenpois0n if you believe Greenpois0n will be your future path for other Jailbreak updates later.
4. Why Geohot suddenly appear in the Jailbreak scene when most people have given up due to his silence and disappear from the Jailbreak world?
5. Geohot's Limera1n might give two exploits which is not a wise solution for the Jailbreak hackers.
6. Quite a number of reviews showed that Limera1n is not perfect. Furthermore, Geohot have a habit of not maintaining its code and can "disappear" again. You might be taking a risk by not waiting the Greenpois0n solution.
7. Don't forget to save your 4.1 SHSH Blobs so that you will be able to Jailbreak in the future for 4.2 or newer. The method is shown --> HERE.
