Can I jailbreak iOS 9 or iOS 9.0.1 on iPhone, iPad, iPod touch? We’re going to take a look at the status of a potential iOS 9 jailbreak here. As you’d expect, iOS 9 exists as the latest and supposedly greatest version of iOS to date, bringing with it a number of exciting improvements and feature additions.
Apple may have dedicated time and resources to improving iOS, but there’s still inevitably going to be a strong contingent of users who can’t wait to jailbreak and liberate their iOS 9 devices.
As things stand at the moment, the last publicly available jailbreak was provided for iOS 8.4 by the TaiG team. The other current prominent team in the world of jailbreaking, Pangu team, has managed to successfully liberate iOS 8.4.1, but claims that a number of the vulnerabilities used in that process have been patched with the release of the Golden Master build of iOS 9. There’s no real confirmation on whether or not the Pangu team will package together its findings relating to the iOS 8.4.1 jailbreak and release it to the public.
So, what about iOS 9? As you probably know, prominent developer iH8Sn0w recently uploaded a YouTube video demonstrating his successful attempt at jailbreaking Apple’s iOS 9. The video not only showed a jailbroken iOS 9 device, but outlined very specific things such as verbose boot, custom boot logos running, and demonstrated code injection. However one thing we weren’t sure of is whether iH8Sn0w and co. will make this jailbreak available for public or not. So, where does that leave us?
It essentially means that we will have to play the waiting game for the TaiG and Pangu teams to delve deep into the depths of iOS and discover the necessary vulnerabilities to serve up a jailbreak for iOS 9. It’s not as doom and gloom as it may seem. The fact that iH8Sn0w has already demonstrated a functioning jailbreak should provide us with some comfort that it’s not only possible, but that it’s also possible to do relatively quickly when looking in the right places. Since iOS 9.1 has already been seeded to testers, the likelihood is that TaiG and Pangu will be working directly on 9.1.
As always, if and when more information becomes available on the iOS 9 jailbreak front, we will be sure to bring it to you immediately. Stay tuned.
Update x1: In a knowledge base document, Apple credited Pangu and TaiG jailbreak teams after successfully patching yet another exploit which could potentially have been used for a jailbreak. More on this here.
Update x2: A team has now announced $1 million dollars for anyone who can jailbreak iOS 9. You can read more on this here.
Update x3: Apple has now released iOS 9.0.1. You can get it from here: iOS 9.0.1 Download Links For iPhone, iPad, iPod touch [IPSW].
