Oh hey finally there is a Untethered Jailbreak for IOS 5. It will available for public soon.
The video below are from the Chronic Dev Team that demonstrates a working untethered jailbreak solution.
The exploit is available on both iOS 5.0 and 5.0.1, so there shouldn’t be any problem jailbreaking either of them.
The hacker promised to test the jailbreak solution on the iPhone 4S and iPad 2 (which he doesn’t have) as soon as he get the chance, but everything should work fine on Apple’s latest iDevices.
The untethered jailbreak isn’t ready for public use just yet and there’s no exact timeframe given for that happening, but it shouldn’t take too long.
