Jailbreak for iOS 7 getting closer apparently

cydia allegedly working on jailbroken iOS7

Well, it’s inevitable really. Somebody somewhere is eventually going to crack (jailbreak) Apple’s latest iOS7 and let users escape from Apple’s close confines. Here at GoMo Towers we received a message from somebody calling himself Derek Badgett and pointing towards a Facebook here called iOS 7 Jailbreak. Sadly, the requisite page that you all want to view is locked and unviewable – presumably because of an error the author has made. Anyway, that’s no matter because there are plenty of other pages on the Net to visit which do have useful information. And they all indicate that a viable jailbreak is just around the corner.

Why would anyone want to break iOS 7 in the first place? The common consensus is that it turns the iPhone into a phone much closer in looks to an Android device than before.

And true Apple fanbois hate Android with a passion, of course.

GoMo News was quite amused to learn that one reason why the jailbreak has taken some time is that one of the chief architects – Pod2g was so disgusted with the look & feel of iOS 7 that he nearly gave up and went Android instead.

Anyway, if you want to read all the latest gossip and news about a possible iOS 7 jailbreak, we recommend you read the Cydia iOS 7 report here.

There’s a suggestion that there is a working jailbreak already but it is far too insecure (and probably illegal) to be released quite just yet.

There’s also a lively discussion as to whether and/or how such a jailbreak will work with the very latest version of iOS which seems to be iOS 7.0.3.

Oh, and one last tip. It seems to be a good idea to search for Evasion and Evad3rs if you really want to read the latest gossip on the forthcoming jailbreak.
