Greenpoison for iOS 4.2 will be Tethered Jailbreak

Greenpoison Jailbreak is based on SHAtter exploit which itself is tethered, but Comex, a member of iPhone Dev, made it untethered to develop the upcoming Greenpoison jailbreak for iOS 4.1. However, Greenpoison to jailbreak iOS 4.2 or iOS 4.1.1 will be tethered jailbreak.

Here are the screenshots of Jailbreak Developer’s tweets telling the whole story.

@MuscleNerd:

Those reading between the lines: Yes SHAtter itself is tethered. @comex came up with a way to untether it on 4.1/3.2.2

@iH8sn0w:

Knew it.. :( — RT @StealthBravo@iH8sn0w Yes so when 4.2 drops next month, the GP will be a tethered jb. :(

@comex:

Yes, that means you need to back up SHSH or you will lose untethered when 4.1.1 comes out, kthx.
