Hacker Pod2g cracks untethered jailbreak for iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1
Jailbreaking takes time, with hackers like Pod2g putting in the hard work to masterfully beat Apple at its own game. Today, Pod2g releases a screenshot and tweet to prove victory against the Apple machine.

Tethered jailbreaks suck. Every time the phone is reset, it has to be re-jailbroken. Not cool and if there ain’t a computer in the vicinity, the device is as good as useless. Untethered is where it’s at. Once jailbroken, the device remains in an “open” state reboot after reboot. No details on the hack have been released.
Jailbreaking has taken a holiday since the launch of the new iPad. The world waits in anticipation for the new iPad jailbreak but as work on the iPhone 4 untethered jailbreak wraps up, this hot iDevice crack is sure to follow.
