Untethered Jailbreak for iOS 9.2.1, iOS 9.2 & iOS 9.3 beta has been achieved!

We have not seen any new jailbreak since Pangu 9 jailbreak tool, which was capable of jailbreaking iOS 9.0.2. This is why many in the jailbreak scene are either stuck with a jailbroken device on an older version without having access to the latest iOS feature or updated to the latest version and do not have a jailbroken device.

For those who are still hoping to see another jailbreak, iOS hacker qwertyoruiop has successfully demonstrated an untethered jailbreak for iOS 9.2, iOS 9.2.1, and 9.3 beta. The hacker has tweeted the link to a video in which he demonstrates an untethered jailbreak on an iPhone 6 running iOS 9.2. He opens up the Cydia on his device to show the iOS version, executes Terminal commands, and tinkers with Winterboard themes before respringing his device.
Although the hacker demonstrated the untethered jailbreak only on iOS 9.2, he claims that the same jailbreak will also work on iOS 9.2.1 and iOS 9.3 beta. Unfortunately, the hacker writes in the video description on YouTube that this jailbreak is going to remain private: “which shall be kept private for the Leader’s enjoyment.”

The hacker released the video only for demonstration purposes to show that there’s still hope for a public jailbreak, but we’ll have to wait for a big hackers team to handle the public jailbreak release process. Since the exploits used in the demonstrated jailbreak also works on iOS 9.3 beta, it would make more sense for the jailbreak team to hold off the jailbreak tool until the final version of iOs 9.3 has been pushed to the general public.

iOS 9.2 jailbreak is in the works, claims a sketchy rumor

Apple has released iOS 9.2 for iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch to the general public and whenever there is a new software update available, people start asking if it is jailbreakable or not. iOS 9.2 have gone through four beta stages before hitting the masses and the jailbreak community has been hoping that if any of the team TaiG or the Pangu jailbreak team have been working on an iOS 9.2 jailbreak, then they would wait for the final version of iOS 9.2. Rumor has it that the team Pangu has been working on an iOS 9.2 jailbreak since the release of iOS 9.2 beta 4.

 It is difficult to confirm this iOS 9.2 jailbreak rumor as the Pangu team neither made any statement officially nor did they provide any hint if the team has successfully achieved an iOS 9.2 jailbreak. Pangu had successfully jailbroken iOS 9 – iOS 9.0.2 on all compatible devices but, unfortunately, Apple was quick to patch the vulnerabilities used by the Pangu jailbreak with the release of iOS 9.1, effectively killing the jailbreak for future releases.
At this point, all we can do is to wait for the Pangu team to either release the iOS 9.2 jailbreak tool or make an announcement related to the jailbreak possibilities. If the rumor is indeed true that team Pangu has an iOS 9.2 beta 4 jailbreak, then we hope Apple has not fixed the vulnerabilities in the final iOS 9.2 release and the team Pangu releases it to the general public real quick.
We cannot rule out the fact that there’s hope for an iOS 9.2 jailbreak as the hacking team who won the one million dollar bounty for making a browser-based untethered jailbreak for iOS 9.1, has also successfully jailbroken iOS 9.2 beta as well.
We’ll update you as soon as we learn more about Pangu jailbreak for iOS 9.2 for compatible iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch devices. You can follow us on Twitter, friend us on Facebook, or add us on Google+ for quick updates.
