Breaking: JailbreakMe 3.0 iPad 2 Jailbreak Release Date Set for June 17 at 6:17:11PM GMT

Leaked Comex New Teaser Suggest iPad 2 Jailbreak Coming on 6/17/11; Has the iPad 2 Been Jailbroken for Life?] (u

The iPad 2 jailbreak is certainly one of the most expected tricks of this modern day and age so grab a huge chunk of salt folks as we have some huge news for you which is all based on a supposedly tweeted image by comex, one of the hackers working on jailbreaking the tablet, since he did do it before, right after the iPad 2 was launched. But first things first, here’s the image in question:


Fruity, an ifans forum poster has a fruity story about the image:

I was on comex’s Twitter about an hour ago when he posted a single image link. I was surprised to see it was what appears to be a flyer for his new jailbreak? When I reloaded the Twitter page it was gone completely. I still had the image in another tab, though, so I saved it to my computer. Perhaps this wasn’t intended to get out yet or maybe there was a delay? I don’t know, I’m just looking at the image unsure if he’s really intending to release it tomorrow or not. This is certainly weird.

Hence the grain of salt needed with the image above. But if all of that is true then it means tomorrow, June 17, or 6/17/11 at 6:17:11 PM GMT (so noon EST) the iPad 2 jailbreak will be released. Is it JailbreakMe 3.0? But wait, it gets better. It looks like that line after the text reads: “iPd2jailbrokenforlife”:

Oh, and apparently that QR code points to comex’ Twitter account, although I can’t verify that myself as I type this post up.

Does that mean that comex has found a significant flaw, one that can be exploited to offer a jailbreak for life for the iPad 2 too? All other iOS devices out there are jailbreakable for life, no matter what iOS version they would run, so this would great news for jailbreakers out there that have been waiting for the iPad 2 jailbreak ever since the new tablet was launched.

Of course, and we simply have to point out this fact, the image above could be fake, and that ifans forum poster could be wrong, considering that the tweet in question is not available anymore. But there’s definitely one thing that suggests the iPad 2 jailbreak is coming soon. Check out comex’ latest Twitter dialog:

Comex’ previous teaser suggested that a new JailbreakMe version is coming soon and we assumed it will be used to jailbreak the iPad, and that’s what the dialogue above was all about. But here’s some of the reactions comex got after his response:

Would people rather wait for iOS 5 and the iPhone 4S/5 to arrive before using an iPad 2 jailbreak? I guess we’ll find out more about this JailbreakMe 3.0 tool tomorrow, at that designated time so keep following us on Twitter, Facebook or via the feed for more detailed information on the iPad 2 jailbreak!

Thanks, Tim!
Update: 6:17:11PM GMT has passed, and comex is silent on the iPad 2 jailbreak. The real strange thing is that he hasn’t tweeted anything in almost two days.

      Damn i really hope this is true, ive been waiting for 3 months now..

    2. Aram says:

      So, lets wait and hope its true!!! ..I want to costumize my ipad now:Zd

    3. John says:

      I noticed this on comex’s Twitter too. I thought I was the only one! It was probably only up for a minute or so.

      Regards,
      J

    4. jvmxtra says:

      hope so too but if it’s going on tomorrow, why would he take it down?

    5. Greg says:

      Maybe it was a teaser for whoever happened to be paying attention at that time.

    6. Denrick says:

      My daily ritual since i got my ipad 2 has been. Facebook then search google for “ipad 2 jailbreak” and see if there are any new news articles about. Hahahaha so i really REALLY hope this is real.

    7. Lakerfanalways says:

      I just hope it works with 4.3.3 and its untethered since 4.3.3 is what I am stuck with on my iPad 2(I just bought it so thats what Im stuck with)

    8. I_Know_How_Twitter_Works says:

      Seriously, do any of you actually know how Twitter works?

      Those who are subscribed to comex’s tweets by SMS would have gotten that tweet on their phones even if he immediately deleted it. With 140K followers, there would be more people aware of this tweet than the one or two falsely claiming they saw it.

      He didn’t tweet such a thing.

    9. Yeats says:

      Ready? we’ll get it at 2011-06-18 00:17:11

    10. Tim says:

      I really hope this is so, I have been waiting so long for this. I hate not being jailbroken lol

    11. Trey says:

      God I hope this is true been waiting for a JB forever thanks for all your work Comex! I’ll be checking your website all day tomorrow :)

    12. Mistahmarblez says:

      Waited in line on release day for 4 hours for my iPad 2…. Jailbreak would be wonderful!!!!

    13. Jeezus Kriste says:

      That’s what I was thinking. Here’s to hoping that jailbreak comes out soon anyway.

    14. bs says:

      this is obviously bs

    15. Chris says:

      When was it in Comex’ Twitter feed? I have been checking his feed a LOT lately and never saw it.

    16. Lynda says:

      Ugh! Enough with the teasers already,,,,

    17. Arts says:

      I hope this is true , you are the man if you released.. Thank you for the effort keep up the good work..

    18. comex show ur balls says:

      comex is just playing with all of us losers, he is just laughing at all of us, stop this BS teasers man, if you cant do it say you cant do it! and if you have the jailbreak, release it! stop playing… be a hero!

    19. Your all Stupid says:

      Again to point out what someone else already did. If comex did tweet this all of the following subscribers would of had received updates via email. This is BS and your all stupid for believing this troll bait ish.

    20. LT916 says:

      Please please Comex! Release it if u do have it!!!! I’ve waited for 3 months already. Checking google iPad 2 jailbreak everyday!

    21. Dan says:

      100% agree
      Emails and SMS would have gone out if he really tweeted this

    22. Volvodr66 says:

      I want a jailbreak just as much as the rest of you, but you realize you are talking smack about likely one of just a few guys around that’s willing to devote his time to developing a jailbreak while you guys are out partying and going about your business. Even if Comex doesn’t end up being successful, everyone who owns an iPad 2 should be grateful for the effort he has spent. I have never seen more self-centered, self-absorbed, childish, selfish, and ungrateful people than I have since reading all of the posts and waiting for the development of an iPad 2 jailbreak the last 3 months. It’s no wonder guy’s like ionic enjoy toying with you all as much as he does.

      I hope Comex is successful and comes out with a jailbreak today, but if he doesn’t I’m still there for him even if it takes another six months, or even never. I’ve never even met the guy and he has my respect for what he’s trying to do. Especially when he’s trying to do it for a community that isn’t even willing to show consistency in their support.

      Keep up the efforts Comex, there are still some of us behind you and grateful for what you’re doing!

    23. phuachukang says:

      dont play play ah!!!

    24. ipad owner says:

      This news is fake
      It is not gonna come out today

    25. Your all Stupid says:

      Volvodr66 your absolutely right these animals as you know are self centered, selfish and ungrateful. But aside from pointing out the obvious I hope everyone here knows that this author Chris smith is just posting a fake story but what would you expect from a blogger. People like him and i0nic are trolls and everyone thinking that tomorrow is going to happen makes you fools for walking through bull-isht. Comex you are the man and everyone that can’t wait and acts like a bunch of upssies ufck you all

    26. Cannibal says:

      Let he who would call everybody stupid check his spelling and syntax before doing so. A touch of the moron goes a long way

    27. ipad2wifi says:

      yap, keep doing the good job, we’re still behind you

    28. Chris Smith says:

      First of all, when you want to insult everyone commenting on a post like you’re obviously trying to do, make sure you at least have bits of your spelling right so as not to seem less intelligent yourself. That also goes to say that your comments will not be approved anymore should they be offensive in any way, name choice included. Secondly, the way you are commenting only shows trolling signs for yourself, so it’s time you got off your high horse.

      Thirdly, and from what I just wrote so far I shouldn’t even be trying to explain it to you, but here goes, I never said this is 100% (or any other percentage) true. In fact I doubt it myself too as I have pointed out in the post so where’s all this hatred coming from? Have I in any way offended comex and everyone else working in the jailbreak business? Does that mean it’s a story not worth covering because it’s not true? It’s like saying weather forecasts should stop since everything those people say, well, is just an estimate and they can go wrong.

    29. sunchai9 says:

      still waiting for some great news.

    30. Amin SeyyedAN says:

      Ive been waiting tooooo Long for this one , Dear ComeXx please Release that as soon as possible :D

    31. Cannibal says:

      After reading one of your posts above, I’m not surprised to find another badly spelled rant, completey lacking any structure you would expect from someone who speaks the language. Obviously that’s besides the fact that your childish anger is so out of place here.

    32. Cannibal says:

      Have you ever heard of testing? Making sure something is ready before releasing? You talk as if you’re owed something. Maybe you’re the hero we’re all waiting for…..but I doubt it

    33. Jailbreakplease says:

      I’m assuming you all have the iPad two? Dont check google everyday, be creative and get a rss news feed :)

    34. Farzad says:

    36. Pice says:

    37. Anonman93 says:

    62. MonTage69 says:

      Guess it didn’t happen. Oh well. Will just wait patiently.

    63. Trey says:

      I’m thinking it’s legit guys! If you go to jailbreak me on your iPad now instead of seeing the usual your version is to new screen you see the PDF pic!

    64. Paul says:

      That pic has been there.

    65. Andrew says:

      Yes paul if you visit the site on a computer it has been there however it is just now showing on iDevices I visited the site on my ipad last night and got the version to new message sorry but it has definitely not “been there” unless you’ve only visited the site from a computer

    66. MonTage69 says:

      Yeah totally not happening. Good night all, have a good weekend, will be waiting patiently!

    67. Paul says:

      Hmmm I’ve been getting that page on my pad 2 for days.????.

    68. Andrew says:

      paul visit the site now it has changed back

    69. Whatevs says:

      @comex
      And no, I did not post a picture with a specific release date. Rather, I got really distracted by this scroller business, sorry :p

    70. Chais82 says:

      Couldn’t have said It better! We as a community need to back off a little! As everyone can tell, bugging them does us no good! In fact, it has proven to discurredge them. Geohot is a perfect example of this. The jailbreak will not come any sooner cause we asked them to hurry. Nor asking for a release date will do any good. They have gave release dates in the past and couldn’t have it ready on the date do to unforeseen issues. But we bitch and complain because we want it now. So why would anyone do that to themselves? I don’t blame them for keeping things hush hush till it’s ready!

    71. shreshrej says:

      @Whatevs

      that sucks

    72. AlexA says:

      Wow me too!

    73. Paul says:

      Sometimes I get the PDF page and sometimes I get the star page. Oh well it was exciting while it lasted. Spoofed……

    74. Dennis says:

      06/17/2012 not this years mistake lol

    75. j says:

    76. Anonymous says:

      Waiting it’s release for along time :’-(

    77. kevin n says:

      Not so much lol

    78. Dave Chappelle says:

      Hahahahaha… Y’all been zapped!

    79. Jailbreak News says:

      It has come to the attention of several people in the know that the Ipad 2 will not be jailbroken anytime soon if at all. Though a few technical reasons were given for this, it appears that @COMEX and members of his group are unable to produce the code needed to jailbreak this device.

      The team will continue to focus their efforts on jailbreaking the anticipated IOS 5.0 release and due to their interests in that area, no further work will be done on the Ipad 2.

      Sadly for those of you waiting to jailbreak your Ipad 2 you should understand now that no jailbreak for this device will ever be released and any and all speculation or reference to one being developed is totally false.

    80. Chris Smith says:

      And you happen to know this how?

    81. Steven says:

      Same here hoping it is true

    82. itavolio says:

      he is just playing with U… HE WAS JUST BORED AND DECIDED TO HAVE FUN… fake and a 3 dollar bill, I think no one is working on this, they are just waiting for the ios 5 and then will not release it because…. they will burn an exploit that was done by geohot a long time ago…. copycats
