Jailbreak iOS 4.1 on iPhone 3GS and iPod Touch 3G will Arrive After iOS 4.2 Official Release

We are waiting for the Greenpois0n jailbreak for iOS 4.1 which will be release by October 10 10:10 am GMT, you know as well that unfortunately, Greenpois0n will be able to jailbreak iPhone 4 and iPod touch on iOS 4.1, iPad on iOS 3.2.2 and may be Apple TV 2G ONLY. More precisely, Greenpois0n will not jailbreak iPhone 3GS nor iPod touch 3G on iOS 4.1, this limitation was due to the unavailability to use the SHAtter exploit with older devices.

But do not lose hopes, we reported you few hours ago that Comex the guy behind Spirit and JailbreakMe has userland exploit which will jailbreak iPhone 3GS and iPod touch 3G. Now the question is When we catch it?, Musclenerd has replied this question confirming that it wouldn't be before official iOS 4.2 is out. I think it makes sense that we see the new Comex userland jailbreak after iOS 4.2 official release, Why? Because the userland exploit can be easliy patched by Apple.

Those reading between the lines: Yes SHAtter itself is tethered. @comex came up with a way to untether it on 4.1/3.2.2

Another point to clarify, that Apple may convert the Greenpois0m jailbreak from untethered jailbreak to tethered jailbreak if it was able to patch the userland based method which discovered by Comex. So that the new Comex userland jailbreak tool will be for iPhone 3GS and iPod touch 3G mainly, and to re-untethered Greenpois0n jailbreak for iPhone 4, iPod touch 4G and iPad.

Some one asking Musclenerd:

Is there ETA for comex's jailbreak for 3GS?

Musclenerd replied:

something like that wouldn't be before official 4.2 is out (at the very least)

For who asking about iOS 4.2, it will be released by November. We will wait impatiently for it. [via RedmondPie]

Now I have to remind all our readers that Greenpois0n jailbreak for iOS 4.1 on iPhone 4G, iPod touch 4G and iPad will be released next Sunday October 10, Stay tuned for the full coverage.
