It's been a while since iOS 7 was released and those of you wondering about a jailbreak for iOS 7 will be delighted to hear that we have had our first glimpse of what Cydia looks like on a jailbroken iOS 7 device. We are still a good bit away from an untethered jailbreak but it is good to get a sneak preview of what is going on.
We know that MuscleNerd recently re-assured existing iOS 7.x users that it was safe to update to iOS 7.0.2. At least we know that work is being done to make this jailbreak a reality.
Cydia for iOS 7 doesn't look as smooth as what we would expect, but it is enough just to see it running on iOS 7. iOS developer Cjori has been working really hard trying to tap into the latest firmware. He told us that he used OpenSn0w to tether-jailbreak iOS 7 on an iPhone 4. Cydia was recompiled from source with the iOS 7 SDK and he manually debugged all of the issues encountered using various UNIX tools. When he was asked if he would be releasing this iOS 7 compatible Cydia along with instructions on how to tether-jailbreak iOS 7, he said that while Cydia itself seems to be stable, a lot of the things revolving around it and the jailbreak in general were very unstable, so he doesn't plan on releasing it at this point, but he might do so in the future once things are fixed.
The images that are doing the rounds serve as nothing more than a teaser at this point and we could have to wait a couple of months before a jailbreak will materialize. We could well see some significant progress from other teams involved too such as Evad3rs before the end of the year. We are very happy to see progress being made and as soon as any further information is released we will be sure to let you know.
