  • The Story of How the iPad 2 Jailbreak Got Leaked

    Ryan Lobbins, the person who found the iPad 2 jailbreak files, explains how they ended up being leaked by Will Sayer.

     

    —–
    This all started late one night on the 27th of June. I was playing Star Craft with some friends reading Comex’s twitter updates like every other person waiting for the jailbreak. That is when I had a crazy idea just to search a site he posted in a previous tweet. That site was www.qoid.us , during my initial search, the main thing that came up was comex’s bannerbomb exploit for the wii. This lead me to believe even more that the site was his. The next thing I did was just do a search for directories on his site and that is when I stumbled upon it. I saw a folder called saffron that grabbed my attention, mainly because jbme 2.0 was star.

    So what would you do if you stumbled on a website that had all the data for the jailbreak people have been waiting months for? At first I wasn’t sure what to do, let alone believe I found the files. The only true indication that I found them was all the pdf files, deb files named after different iOS devices, and a php file. The last thing I wanted was to just send out all the files saying here they are. As someone who has worked on a project for years in the past I would hate for my work to leak out before my self or the team was ready. Comex had been working on this for almost a year.

    The first thing I did was the obvious, test the files. From comex’s tweets at the time I figured they were close to completion and wouldn’t completely brick my iPad. The next was I made a copy of the files for my own purpose of trying on other devices, not to leak them. I didn’t know if comex would have the files moved before I woke up the next day. Then as proof to my friends who had no reason to even want the jailbreak, but wanted to see it I uploaded them to this site. Worst mistake ever.

    Now comes the next day, what would you do with the information you gained from decompiling and decompressing the files. You don’t want to leak them, but there has been no information on any updates. People are starting to doubt the jailbreak is even real. What I did was just spread information about the jailbreak, no pictures, no files, just me posting on forums what I know. Of course there were people calling me names saying I am a troll and other names. Next I sent off private messages to two people on the forums I was posting on. At that point after a few messages the only thing I sent was a picture. That was the first and only thing I sent. The picture was of the new jailbreakme website, with the url removed so the site didn’t get out. That was the end of it on June 28th.

    I went on vacation on the 30th and won’t be home until July 15th, but my curiosity started to get the better of me last night. I have these files that didn’t work on my iPad, but I wondered if they would work at all. I contacted another person on the forums who was multimediawill aka appreviewer will aka Will Sayer. He tried one of the pdf files and it jailbroke his iPad. I was surprised, he was surprised. He swore up and down he wouldn’t leak it, and I went to bed. That is when I woke up and saw my list of emails streaming in. Immediately the files were deleted, I felt stupid and horrible that my curiosity got the best of me and caused this. I never intended for it to get leaked out this big. In all I apologize to comex for my actions. I don’t want attention, and never wanted to spread his work like Will did. I was just curious, and this curiosity caused this. So in the grand scheme of things the leak was probably 10% my fault, I found the files, made a copy and re-hosted them, but Will was the exact opposite. He wanted attention and spread the news to tech blogs made videos and even spread the links to the files on my site.

  • iOS Google+ App Submitted To The App Store, We Wait Anxiously

    Those lucky Android users were lucky to get into Google+ as soon as the new social network was up for it’s BETA earlier last week but what about the iOS crowd? The poor bunch was forced to use the HTML 5 version of the site using the device’s browser but according to Erica Joy who’s a Google employee the app has already been submitted to the App Store.

    As you can see from Joy’s status above taken ironically from an iDevice’s browser the App wasn’t even submitted yesterday it was before even that! We just hope Google’s app gets through Apple’s “strict” verification process and hits the app store soon.

  • Final Fantasy XIII-2 Latest Screens Introduce Us To Its Hero Noel

    Square Enix released a couple of these new screens for the upcoming Xbox 360 and PS3 RPG and sequel to the smash hit Final Fantasy XIII. We can see Noel introducing himself to somebody(most probably Serah). We get to know his full name which is Noel Kreiss.

    In one of the screens we can see Noel apologizing Serah, asking for giving him a chance to prove his worth. From what we gather from these screens, we can see a lot of the familiar enemies from the first game returning again.

    We can see Pulsework Soldier and Flandragora which were quite common enemies. It will be disappointing if Square Enix decides to take the cheap route and there are no new enemies introduced or most of them are just re-skinned version of old enemies.

    It will be awesome to have new enemies like the giant tortoise enemies of Gran Pulse. We can only wait and hope that Square Enix learns their lesson from Final Fantasy X-2 and makes this game much more better instead of the girly show that X-2 turned out.

  • Henry Cavil Is The Greek Hero Theseus In This Immortals Trailer

    Immortals is the upcoming flick from the producers of “300″ which carries a similar vibe to “God of War” video game series. It stars “Henry Cavil” as the Greek warrior and hero “Theseus”. Henry Cavil is also rumored to be the new Superman in the upcoming Superman movie. This movie looks similar to “300″ but due to its story which is set in the Greek mythology, we can see a lot of resemblance with “God of War” video game series.

    This movie also stars Frieda Pinto which seems to be getting way too many Hollywood movies these days. She got her first breakthrough role in “Slumdog Millionaire” and lately starred in some big budget movies.
