Wait, don’t get your hopes up! Yes, Ac1dSn0w is a new jailbreak tool but it doesn’t bring a new “jailbreak” for iPhone 4S, iPad 2 or untethers iOS 5. Ac1dsn0w jailbreak tool developed by PwnDevTeam which makes jailbreaking much easier. Below we’ll explain more.
Ac1dSn0w beta version is now available which is currently available only for Mac OS X users. It does a tethered jailbreak of iOS 5 and iOS 5.0.1 and also boots the device. This is only a taste of what the PwnDevTeam can do, currently they’re working behind the scenes on jailbreaking from another computer.
The current version of Ac1dSn0w is in an early development stage. In the future it will also be able to jailbreak remote devices. This means that you just need to install a server program on any OS (Linux, BSD, Windows) and Ac1dSn0w will jailbreak it on a client machine anywhere in the world.
Supported devices:
- iPhone 3Gs
- iPhone 4
- iPod Touch 4 G
- iPad 1
