It was only a week ago that hacker Pwn20wnd launched unc0ver v2.1.0 to the public in one of the most substantial updates ever made to the modern jailbreak tool. But as it would seem, the hacker fancied taking things a step further.
Over the weekend, Pwn20wnd dropped the unc0ver v2.1.1 pre-release for public testing with a bevy of bug fixes and improvements. Citing Pwn20wnd’s official GitHub page, the new pre-release is comprised of the following changes:
New Year’s Eve was a busy day for hacker and unc0ver lead-developer Pwn20wnd. Shortly after dropping the official public release of unc0ver v2.1.0, Pwn20wnd issued a quick revision for the jailbreak tool comprised of bug fixes.
Pwn20wnd announced the revision Monday evening via Twitter, noting that the contained fixes targeted “weird issues” being experienced by some users:
Moments after we published a story about the unc0ver v2.1.0 pre-release receiving its eleventh revision, hacker Pwn20wnd publicly released unc0ver v.2.1.0, officially bringing it out of its “pre-release” stages.
This is arguably one of the most significant updates to the unc0ver jailbreak tool to date, and Pwn20wnd made the official announcement via Twitter just minutes ago as of this writing:
Hot off the heels of three Cydia Substrate updates released by Saurik throughout the night, the unc0ver v2.1.0 pre-release received two new revisions on Monday. These are the tenth and eleventh revisions to this particular pre-release version since Pwn20wnd released it for public testing more than two weeks ago.
Citing the changelog published on Pwn20wnd’s official GitHub repository, the two new unc0ver v2.1.0 pre-release revisions encompass the changes outlined below:
Just yesterday, hacker Pwn20wnd updated the unc0ver v2.1.0 pre-release with a bevy of bug fixes and stability improvements for public testers; but as it would seem, he wasn’t finished fine-tuning the jailbreak tool just yet.
At least three more revisions to the unc0ver v2.1.0 pre-release have been published to Pwn20wnd’s official GitHub repository since we ran our story Saturday afternoon. Citing the changelog, the updates encompass these changes:
It’s been two weeks since hacker Pwn20wnd launched the initial unc0ver v2.1.0 pre-release for public testing, and we’ve seen a bevy of revisions to the pre-release since then. Just this week, the unc0ver v2.1.0 pre-release received two additional updates to fortify the jailbreak tool even further.
Citing the changelog published on Pwn20wnd’s official GitHub repository, the two new unc0ver v2.1.0 pre-release revisions encompass the changes outlined below:
It was only yesterday that the Electra Team pushed a significant update to the Electra jailbreak with initial support for the Sileo package installer and a bevy of bug fixes and performance improvements, but the team is still fine-tuning the iOS 11-centric jailbreak tool as we speak.
Citing a Tweet shared by the Electra Team Wednesday evening, one out of the two available Electra jailbreak tools was updated once again, this time to version 1.1.0-2, with a fix for a jailbreaking issue on iOS 11.0-11.1.2:
Just this week, the Electra Team updated its jailbreak for the first time since this Summer, bringing the tool(s) up to version 1.1.0.
Unlike the all-in-one unc0ver jailbreak by Pwn20wnd, the Electra jailbreak is fragmented into two separate tools; one of those supports iOS 11.0-11.1.2 and the other supports iOS 11.2-11.4 beta 3. Regardless, both tools received notable updates.
Pwn20wnd initially launched the pre-release of unc0ver v2.1.0 for public testing almost a week ago, and as it would seem, the hacker has been somewhat busy refining the tool ahead of the upcoming official public launch.
Citing Pwn20wnd’s official GitHub repository, the unc0ver v2.1.0 pre-release has seen revisions on at least three separate occasions since our original story, with the latest change taking place just yesterday.
Pwn20wnd has been rather busy these last few weeks updating unc0ver with bug fixes and new features, but much like a machine, the hacker continues to polish the iOS 11-centric jailbreak tool with no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
Over the weekend, Pwn20wnd shared via Twitter the unc0ver v2.1.0 pre-release for public testing, further refining the jailbreak experience with improvements and bug fixes:
Hacker Pwn20wnd began the pre-release train at the end of November with unc0ver v2.0.0, but public testing quickly died down after a few iterations helped squash bugs. Consequently, unc0ver v2.0.1 was released mere days ago to bring the tool out of its ‘pre-release’ stages.
As of Thursday, however, Pwn20wnd launched another unc0ver pre-release for public testing; this time with the version number 2.0.2. Pwn20wnd made an official announcement about the new pre-release this afternoon via his Twitter account:
iOS hacker Pwn20wnd published the first unc0ver v2.0.0 pre-release on Friday, and there’ve been at least three separate updates to it since that time. But now that most of the bugs appear to be ironed out, the hacker has moved forward with an official public release.
On Monday, Pwn20wnd announced the public debut of unc0ver v2.0.1 via Twitter. Unlike the v2.0.0 pre-release, this version is officially out of beta testing and should be stable enough for the general public to deploy on compatible devices running iOS 11.0-11.4 beta 3:
