Another Update on GreenPois0n: The Untethered iOS 4.2.1 Jailbreak!

A couple of days back we showed you guys a video of the untethered iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak from the Chronic Dev-Team. In the video we saw an iPhone 4 successfully re-boot itself jailbroken, meaning that this video was definitely the real deal. We also told you that the only thing currently wrong with the untethered jailbreak from the Chronic Dev-Team, was an issue with the iPhone’s wifi bars not being displayed correctly. As this was just a small issue, we concluded that GreenPois0n must not be far off, and so far it seems like we were correct making that statement.
You see P0sixninja recently tweeted, that the only thing left to fix us is a few small issues with their kernal payload (part of the untethered jailbreak exploit). Once these issues are fixed up, the Chronic Dev-Team will release an updated version of GreenPois0n that can jailbreak the iOS 4.2.1 firmware untethered. We are thinking that the issues with the kernal payloads, is what is causing the wifi bar issue. Take a look at P0sixninja’s tweet below…
As this was actually tweeted a couple of days ago (sorry, we missed it), we are hoping that GreenPois0n will be released anytime now. Until then we will keep you updated if we hear anything else on the iOS 4.2.1 untethered jailbreak.
It will be interesting to see whether the Dev-Team release the “jailbreak monte” version of redsn0w before the Chronic Dev-Team release GreenPois0n untethered. As originally when the Dev-Team first announced the “jailbreak monte”, we thought that would mean the Chronic-Dev would hold off on releasing GreenPois0n.  Who do you think will release first?
