Jailbreak Apple TV 4.4.3 untethered release is now imminent. Today is a great day as far as jailbreak news are concerned. iPhoneism has just learnt that untethered jailbreak for Apple TV 4.4.3 firmware will be releasing very, very soon.
If you're unaware, the Apple TV is a product that was developed because it was a hobby of deceased Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. We know that Apple is trying to break in to the consumer TV market, however that can not be accomplished with just another set-top box. The Apple TV is a set-top box that connects with any conventional TV through HDMI. It is powered by the same A4 processor that we find in the iPhone 4, iPad 1 and the iPod touch 4G. Hence any exploit which can be used to jailbreak A4 based iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, can also be used to jailbreak the Apple TV. Since pod2g's 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak is out, soon enough you'll be able to jailbreak Apple TV 4.4.3 untethered.
Just like the iPhone Dev Team is at the forefront of developing and releasing tools that help you jailbreak, the Firecore team develops a tool that lets you jailbreak Apple TV. Today the Firecore team revealed via Twitter that their Seas0nPass jailbreak tool will soon be updated with pod2g's exploit so that you can use it to jailbreak Apple TV 4.4.3 untethered.
In light of the fact that Seas0nPass will soon be updated to jailbreak Apple TV 4.4.3 untethered, the developer of TinyUmbrella has just updated it to support saving SHSH blobs of Apple TV 4.4.3 firmware. This particular Apple TV firmware was released on 18 November. If you haven't updated to Apple TV 4.4.4 firmware which was released on December 16, you'll be able to save SHSH blobs. These SHSH blobs can come in handy because even if you accidently update the firmware on your Apple TV, it can easily be downgraded using these very Apple TV 4.4.3 SHSH blobs. It's essential to save them as they might prove to be useful once its finally possible to jailbreak Apple TV 4.4.3 untethered.
We'll let you know as soon as Seas0nPass is updated to jailbreak Apple TV 4.4.3 untethered. In the meanwhile, you can download TinyUmbrella from the links given below to save Apple TV 4.4.3 firmware SHSH blobs.
