tagged ,

If you’re excited about the upcoming untethered iOS 6 jailbreak “evasi0n” you’ll be excited to hear the newest development update. As you all know the Evad3rs team officially announced the tool yesterday and there has been a huge response from eager jailbreakers waiting to get their iDevices running iOS6 jailbroken.

The team has posted an update to the tool bringing it to a 68% completion rate. This is great news for jailbreakers as the Windows and OSX GUI has been completed and the Linux version is almost complete. All that is left is the private-beta testing that the group has planned.

To our knowledge the team plans to hold the beta testing within a closed group of people to ensure that no leaks make it out while the tool is not polished. We also believe that the tool is likely to be released on Sunday February 3rd, due to all the icons within the iDevices being set to the number “3″.

We will keep you posted on the status of “Evasi0n”!
