Apple Release 4.3.4 - Jailbreakers BEWARE!

[graywolf]

Apple just released 4.3.4, which patches the Jailbreakme PDF jailbreak.
So, iPad 2 owners, DO NOT UPGRADE!!!!!!!!!!!

iPad 1 owners, you can upgrade, as longs your SHSH blobs for 4.3.3 are saved. But there is no jailbreak for 4.3.4 yet so upgrading is pointless.

F4780y gives more info for iPad 2 owners.

According to a member, the 4.3.3 window hasn't closed yet.

 

[f4780y]

As was predicted, although perhaps taking a little longer than predicted, Apple have now released IOS 4.3.4.

All this update does is stop jailbreakme.com from working, so BEWARE!

Do not install this update if you want to keep your ability to jailbreak.

iPad2 3G GSM & CDMA owners in particular must be extra careful. You do not currently have the ability to use your SHSH Blobs to restore your device, therefore you will be stuck with stock 4.3.4 if you update by accident. We need to confirm whether 4.3.4 also has an updated baseband version as this is the component which will prevent a downgrade. If Apple has been kind and left the baseband untouched at the same version, SHSH Blobs will be able to downgrade on these devices. Stay tuned for updates in this thread!

All iPad1, and iPad2 "WiFi Only", who have their 4.3.3 SHSHBlobs saved have a safety net to be able to downgrade. See our SHSH Blob FAQ for more information. But if you haven't saved your SHSH's yet do it now, within hours you will be out of time for 4.3.3...

Leigh ~ was this the main purpose?

therefore you will be stuck with stock 4.3.4 if you update by accident.

They would be stuck forever?


So ~ there is no reason for me to update....right?


"Pad 1 owners, you can upgrade, as longs your SHSH blobs for 4.3.3 are saved. But there is no jailbreak for 4.3.4 yet so upgrading is pointless."

I'm a blob saver.

You can upgrade, because you are a blob saver.
But there are no new features, and there is no jailbreak for it so it is pointless for now.

So if I did upgrade I would be JBless?

Abolutely no need for you (or anyone really) to upgrade Marie.

The only people that should are folks that are paranoid about security and never want to jailbreak.

I have also updated the official links page here - http://www.ipadforums.net/ipad-hacking/24939-official-apple-ios-firmware-download-links-ipad.html

But I stress again. DONT anyone install this unless you know you never want to jailbreak.

Cool. I'd be lost without you Leigh!


Hey how did you find out so fast? Apple website?

So this was released just to prevent JB? That isn't very nice.

Leigh ~ did they do this on the other JB?

Twitter texts me what comex and a lot of other jb people tweet.

Yes, every time there has been a userland jailbreak like the current one! It's the jailbreak game of cat and mouse!

 

[SweetPoison]

Wow. This JB world just fascinates me to no end. Leigh ~ so you expected this? Was it fast or took longer than you would expect?

But of course, Young One. I don't twit and I don't FB, so I will live precariously through you.
