iPad 2 Jailbreak:They Have Almost Developed a Jailbreak for iPad 2! [A Complete Overview]

Apple’s iPad 2 has a strongest security system so far since nobody succeeded to jailbreak iPad 2 yet including MuscleNerd (iPhone Dev Team), P0sixninga (Chronic Dev Team),  Stefan Esser (I0n1c Exploit Discoverer), Veeence and Geohot  ( Famous PS3 Hacker) who are well known as experts of  doing magic in jailbreaking and hacking  arena. Why iPad 2 is too hard to jailbreak? Who will jailbreak iPad 2 first and when will first jailbreak for iPad 2 be available? These are the natural question rising in our minds  and there is no one to address these ones with a satisfactory reply. Let’s have a complete overview on the iPad 2 Jailbreaking issue.

It shoud be kept in mind that A5 chip based  iPad 2 is the only device without any tethered / untethered jailbreak solution on the latest iOS 4.3.1, iOS 4.3.2, and iOS 4.3.3 firmwares.  It should also be noted that iPad 2 jailbreak would be bootrom level exploit instead of a userland jailbreak.

Why A5 Chip based iPad 2 is too hard to jailbreak until now?

Though all jailbreakers and hackers are doing their best to dig out an urgent jailbreak for Apple’s iPad 2 as soon as possible but it seems that they are yet quite unable to push out any practical jailbreak for iPad 2 device whether tethered or untethered one. It is now a matter of honor for all of them since iPad 2 has challenged their skills of jailbreaking and hacking. Why A5 Chip based iPad 2 is too hard to jailbreak until now? Let’s try to find the answer of this question of more than $10 million in the light of the tweets floated on web by some big names of jailbreaking community – MuscleNerd and POsixninga making their endless efforts to jailbreak iPad 2, in no time.

MuscleNerd:

So far, our tests have shown my theory might be right :( (Once the A5 bootrom is off, it stays off until power cycle)

MuscleNerd again  comments :

the bootrom is actually inside the A5, so that would require some very advanced decapping and optics

P0sixninja says;

Wow, I guess @MuscleNerd was right. BootROM just isn’t there… Guess I gotta go HAM on Apple now.

Now make a trip to a few tweets by MuscleNerd, Stefan Esser and Veeence showing their keen interest for jailbreaking iPad 2 and sometimes it feels that they are almost near to make this impossible mission possible.

P0sixninja & iPad 2 Jailbreak:

Chronic Dev Team’s P0sixninja doing its efforts on his heels to find out iPad 2 jailbreak. It seems that he is near to disclose his iPad 2 jailbreak by the name of  Greenpos0n RC7 iPad 2 Jailbreak  in near future.

GeoHot & iPad 2 Jailbreak:

Geohot has also accepted the P0sixninga’s challenge to jailbreak iPad 2 bootrom first and we have covered the whole story earlier here on these pages for your kind interest. Yet Geohot is dead quiet on iPad 2 jailbreak issue. Hopefully he prefers to do something concrete instead of making noise.

Finally here is a recent tweet by Veeence describing that iPad 2 jailbreak has almost ready and it will soon be  rising on tech horizons.
