Evad3rs Announce iOS 7 Jailbreak For Latest Apple Devices 110
hypnosec writes "Evad3rs, the famous iOS jailbreak team, has announced an iOS 7 jailbreak that will work in all iDevices including iPhone 5S, iPhone 5C and iPad Air running iOS 7.0 through to iOS 7.0.4. The iOS 7 jailbreak was announced without much of a hype, unlike the one for iOS 6. 'Merry Christmas! The iOS 7 jailbreak has been released at http://evasi0n.com/! All donations will go to @publicknowledge, @eff and @ffii,' tweeted evad3rs."
Reader FrogBlastTheVentCore adds a note of caution: "They recommend restoring your device to iOS 7.0.4 if it has received OTA updates before attempting to jailbreak."
Jailbreak with broken Cydia and Mobile Substrate (Score:4, Informative)
This jailbreak is completely broken, and according to multiple other jailbreakers the evasion team took money to include a piracy app store from china. You can see all the fun on twitter as they yell at each other.
DO NOT USE - Super sketchy stuff happening (Score:5, Informative)
Read Stefan Esser's Twitter feed [twitter.com] for some off the problems with this jailbreak relating to a mandatory Chinese app store that get installed for some users (featuring pirated apps). They also left other members of the community like Saurik out, which is just odd. I wouldn't trust my devices with personal information with the current jailbreak.
