Jailbreak iPad

Jailbreak iPad

Apple announced their iPad tablet today and a lot of you may be wondering whether or not it is possible to jailbreak the iPad. The iPad currently runs on iPhone 3.2 OS which will only be available on the iPad, and not on the iPhone or iPod touch. There are many different teams of iPhone hackers which I am sure will attempt to jailbreak iPad once it’s released.

The problem is that Apple has been changing their hardware and software and trying hard to patch software exploits that are used in jailbreaks. This was apparent when the 24kpwn exploit was patched when Apple released a newer iPhone 3GS and iPod touch model. When Apple patched the 24kpwn exploit, users were required to jailbreak each time they rebooted their iDevice (also called tethered jailbreak). Is it possible for Apple to completely block the jailbreak in the iPad? I doubt it because there has always been an exploit that the iPhone hacking community have been able to find and use. At the very least we should be able to get a tethered jailbreak on the iPad. I’m pretty sure Geohot will be the one who can get us an iPad jailbreak as he is very skilled at this! We’ll just have to wait and see because the iPad won’t be released until about 60 days from now.

    • cody says:

      jailbreaking an ipad would be the shit
      u are all gay if u dont agree

    • Jail Break Fan says:

      It is inevitable that the Ipad will be Jailbroken and Unlocked in the Spirit of Freedom.

      What would the world look like if:
      We had to buy gas from Ford?
      Or pay our Electric bills to Edison?

      • Jessie says:

        That makes no fucking sense. Those comparisons do not work here at all…

        • Mike says:

          I have no idea what he meant by that. Maybe he was being sarcastic.

        • Michael says:

          I think he is making fun of apples over characteristic control of all of its “children” ipod ipad…. having to always turn to apple! like if ford made it so only ford gas would work… just like the app store apple says u can only get apps that they approve from them. : ) see

      • John says:

        Your analogy doesn’t make sense. Ipads should be jailbroken because people don’t want to pay prices for software.

        What would the world look like if:

        We could just take Ford cars off the lot?
        Or could syphon electricity off someone?

        Don’t try to make it into a “Freedom” piece. You’re free to buy or not to buy.

        Some people will buy, some people will be more creative and get it at a discount.

    • TIG says:

      Seriously, cody, freak nut. If your going to respond to this intelligently. Try to explain your reasons instead of sounding like immature girls. ‘Dis iz da shit,’ or ‘if uz dun liek it ur gayz’ serious, STFU if your not going to post a reply which is intelligent.

      Im considering getting the Ipad for general research purposes into understanding a wide range of tech. Only issue, the price tag.

    your a gay homo jailbreaking stuff for free games… just pay for the fun apps. also DONT find a way to jailbreak the ipad please if you do i will find out how the jailbreak works and apple will permanently fix the hardware… BTW i am aswell apart of apple corperation. Thamk you have a nice day

    • Ipod User says:

      you do realize you can’t even spell the word “Thank” right, correct?

    • fastlane says:

      I didnt jailbreak for free games as you put it.. I did it so I could customize my device.. if apple made it possible to customize on its own there wouldnt be a need for jailbreaking… IMO

    • macAbuzer says:

      Apple Employees are restricted from blogging. Re-observe your company policies.

    • GEOHOT says:

      what are you gonna do about it MF!!! like you are gonna make a difference… go ahead we still going to jailbreak it and have fun with it

    • @andrew says:

      I didn’t know Apple recruited dyslectic people.

    • andrew sucks says:

      someone who is a part of the apple corporation would misspell so many words and use such vulgar language.

    • Deno Nefardo says:

      Having worked in a retail store my self, I got sacked for blogging on a totally not known website about something totally no important but because it was about apple it was time for dismissal. My Bad. Some how they tracked me on this site.

      So even if you did work for Apple…. I Doubt you do now ;)

      Also they wouldn’t even allow you to work for them with such bad spelling.

      Grow Up, Get a life, and also get your facts right! How many people jailbreak iPhone for free games?

      Regards!!!!!!! Have a nice day!

      • freak nut says:

        “Grow Up, Get a life, and also get your facts right! How many people jailbreak iPhone for free games?”

        More then you obviously know HoMo!!

        • flamer says:

          calling someone gay is not really an insult. I second Deno’s view.. you monkeys should ‘grow up, get a life, and also get your facts right’. The TRUTH is apple locks down it’s mobile devices to protect it’s revenue stream and that of AT&T’s. Tether apps cost the carriers money, cost broadband/dsl/fios companies money. Why have DSL when you get 3G included with your phone and you don’t download heavily? Another Truth: people jailbreak for reasons other than stealing. Why would you buy a car with the hood welded shut? I want to mod my car, or phone, or house.. without getting permission from anyone. Once I buy something it’s MINE, I do whatever I want with it. Power to the People.

    • Jim says:

      You work for Apple and you can’t spell or form a proper sentence? The next time you’re in a meeting at Apple, don’t spell corporation…corperation, it will just make you look bad in front of Steve. LMAO!

      • Cris says:

        Sorry. I was thinking of something else while I was typing… how I was going to permanently block the ipad firmware from jailbreaking!!! hehehehehe

        • Cris says:

          I don’t work in the applestore but I do usually visit. Also I’m 10yrs old so please keep the language kid-appropriate. I have an iPod touch!!

          • Michael says:

            You are a duesche… a 10yo duesche and apple makes mistakes all the time… thats were JB comes from… also Alot of apple employees say gay or homosexual…

    • Cris says:

      You are not from the Apple corporation because Apple employees don’t make mistakes and they don’t say gay or homosexual. Cris

  5. JBIPD says:

    Just jailbreak the thing…. who cares, btw, andrew do wat Brian said, go suck a dude of and for freak nut, go grow some nuts and suck a dude off.

  6. newzealand jailbreaker says:

    andrew maybe if the public had more freedom with apples devices we wouldnt have to jailbreak not everyone jailbreaks for free apps dumbass

  7. chris says:

    andrew you arent a part of apple, you’re just a douche

  8. Mathew says:

    Andrew

    You’re lame. I seriously hope you are not a part of Apple. If so, they just dropped in my eyes significantly. Other then your poor spelling and grammer, your diction sucks. Like stated earlier, not everyone jailbreaks for free apps. I won’t resort with the homo attacks and childish tactics as you initially did, I’ll just say that you are obviously just a bitter sad little person.

    Grow up man.

    I bought the wifi ipad, in conjunction with a jailbroken iphone using mywi, I’m able to use the iphone as a hotspot and therefore use the 3g I’m already paying for from AT&T – its pretty slick to have others think I somehow have a pre released 3G device when they see this unit in action :-)

  10. Zdarton says:

    Wow y’all are some Internet thugs

  11. scottyb says:

    Im using the iPad with a jailbroken iPhone and mywi. Works great.
    I was going to sell my wifi model for a 3g model. Dont need to know and dont need to pay ATT twice. Sweet. Super easy.
    get mywi for $9.99 from cydia. (no rock version) easy purchase over the iphone. Connected in less than 20 minutes.
    Loving the ipad, cant wait to jailbreak it too.

  12. Alex says:

    What’s wrong with jail breaking????

  13. freak nut says:

    not a damn thing :)

  14. iPad says:

    Just jailbreak it using iphone/ipod jailbreak software thats what I did and it was easy.

    CYDIA ON iPAD!!!!!!!
