With the release of iOS 8 beta 1, a lot of people have been wondering about the potential for an untethered jailbreak for iOS 7.1/7.1.1. We have been bringing you updates as we have received them but we thought it was high time to let you know exactly what is going on with the iOS 7.1 jailbreak scene.
If you are using the Evasi0n 7 untethered jailbreak then you already know not to update your firmware until if you want to keep it and that still remains true. Evasi0n 7 was patched with iOS 7.1 so it is useless if you have updated. What we do know to date is the Winocm posted a YouTube video demonstrating iOS 7.1 untethered boot a good while back and we all became very hopeful that an untethered iOS 7.1 jailbreak was on its way but that didn't happen.
The next piece of information that came through was via Twitter where iH8sn0w claimed that his iPhone 4s was currently jailbroken on iOS 7.1 but nothing came of this either. Apple then released iOS 7.1.1 so only devices that were using 7.0.6 or below could avail of a jailbreak.
The most exciting piece of news that we have is the i0n1c, Winocm and Yeongjin have all managed to jailbreak iOS 7.1.1 independently. I0n1c's jailbreak is called Cyberelevat0r and it looks promising but as yet we still have no ETA from any of them leaving everyone still hanging. With iOS 8 just around the corner we do have to wonder if these guys will keep everything to themselves and use the exploits that they have found to create a jailbreak for iOS 8 instead. We are only speculating but it could be a very likely option. What do you think, would you prefer to have a jailbreak released for iOS 8 or get your hands on the one that can jailbreak iOS 7.1 now? Do let us know in the comments.
