We are glad to spread this news! Hacker Pod2g has announced that he's handed over the A4 to the Chronic Dev-Team and moving on to complete the A5 (iPhone 4S, iPad 2) jailbreak. Untethered Jailbreak for iOS 5.0.1 is coming!
I read the comments on the blog, and I know that a lot of people are waiting for the A5 jailbreak. Also, I know there are tons of people out there with A4 or even earlier devices who wants the untether now and don't care about it could be interesting to wait A5 is finished to release or even 5.1, so that we don't waste an exploit that took me months to find and develop.
I need to focus on A5 and hope I can find a path quick, and I have the feeling that chronic-dev could help me. So, here is what I did:
● I gave all the details to the chronic dev team so that they can finish, test, integrate and release the A4 jb ASAP.
● I'll put all my energy from now on on the A5

For those waiting for an untethered jailbreak on the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 4G, iPod Touch 3G, and iPad 1, it means you'll see a release sooner than later.
Pod2g recently demonstrated his jailbreak on the iPhone 4. You can watch that here.
Note, if you are a particular tech minded person, pod2g posted a link which explains the issues relating to self modifying code on the ARM platform.
The hope is that he can now focus solely on progressing the jailbreak for both current A5 devices. Stay tuned!
