This is a big news for the jailbreak community because at this time finding jailbreak exploits for every iOS update has become a difficult task and it is nearly impossible to downgrade iPhone 4S, iPad 2 and iPad 3 because of the aptickets system Apple had introduced in iOS 5 or later firmwares.


All those stuck with iOS 5.1 with no means of jailbreaking or downgrading back hold on tight because iH8sn0w will soon be releasing a downgrade method for your iPhone 4S, iPad 2 and iPad 3.
