Pangu untethered jailbreak still works with iOS 7.1.2

Pangu.io 2014-06-23 13-17-10 2014-06-23 13-17-18

Apple today seeded iOS 7.1.2, and we’ve confirmed that the recently-released Pangu jailbreak does indeed work perfectly fine with the new build. While Pangu was released after Apple seeded 7.1.2 to carriers (meaning that the likelihood of the security holes being patched was fairly low), there was still the slim possibility that Apple would make a few changes and patch the holes before pushing the update to the masses.

But alas, the untethered jailbreak that we told you about last week is still capable of jailbreaking iOS 7.1.2, and you can still follow the very same guide that we published if you need help getting the famed Cydia application running on your device. It’s worth noting, however, that the jailbreak also recently got an update to support OS X, and that we would recommend you use this version if you’re planning on jailbreaking your iOS 7.1.2 device.

    BE CAREFUL! A *LOT* can change in 1 day!

  8. Although, frankly, after such dances with a tambourine, you need to think or not to jail. some devices IOS 4s 5s during the prison break out cyclic reboot.

      Maybe your doing it wrong? Make sure that your phone is restored to 7.1.2 CONNECTED to iTunes (i.e. not over the air).

      Then try jailbreaking again…

      Just a thought.

  9. after the procedure failed Jail Single 7.1.2 appstore does not download the application, you need to recover. Looks like the guys just rushed to make loud statements about the update 7.1.2….)))

    do you have to download pangu to your computer first? and then to your mobile device such as an Ipad?
