In addition to providing iOS 5.1 beta support to its flagship tool TinyUmbrella, notcom has posted a small update for TinyPwn – a New Jailbreak Tool, that will allow users to install custom firmware files in iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch without using the iTunes, saves you from iTunes errors. Notcom said:

TinyPwn update: I’ve not had much time in the past month to work on this. Real life drama, work, etc have taken much of my time. I still intend on a release… eventually… Effectively it’ll just have to be done when it’s done…

TinyPwn JailbreakAs a quick refresher, TinyPwn jailbreaking utility uses Geohot’s Limera1n exploit to jailbreak iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS (both old and new bootrom), iPod touch 4G, iPod touch 3G and first generation iPad. TinyPwn will likely support semi-tethered jailbreak on iOS 5.0, iOS 5.0.1 except iPhone 3GS on old bootrom. The tool is unlikely to support A5 powered devices such as iPad 2 and iPhone 4S.

Apart from jailbreak support, TinyPwn will also allow you to create and customize the iOS custom IPSW files (just like sn0wbreeze and PwnageTool) and will support all three major platforms – Windows, Mac and Linux.

Semaphore, aka notcom is hard at work but he hasn’t shared ETA for TinyPwn Jailbreak. Perhaps one thing is clear that the users will have one more tool to jailbreak their iOS devices. And yes! TinyPwn will be the first tool to get Linux support. We will update you when TinyPwn is fully baked for primetime.
