How To Jailbreak iOS 6 iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS iPod Touch 4G

iOS 6 is out for download and here comes our first iOS 6 jailbreak tutorial that talks about how tojailbreak 6 / 6.0 on iPhone 4/3gs and iPod Touch 4g. The current iOS 6 jailbreak is available which is tethered and compatible with iPhone 4/3g and itouch 4g only. If you want to jailbreak 6 / 6.0 on iPhone 5, iPhone 4S, iPad 2 or iPad 3 you must wait until the new jailbreak is released for A5/A6 devices to jailbreak 6.0.

Jailbreak iOS 6 Important Note

If you are a jailbreaker and your device is already jailbroken remember your previous jailbreak shall be removed once you upgrade to iOS 6. Therefore think again and decide carefully whether you should upgrade to iOS 6 or not. If you are having iphone5, iPhone 4s, iPad 2 and iPad 3 don’t upgrade to iOS because still there is no hope that we shall get iOS 6 jailbreak for these A5 & A6 devices.

Panorama mode confirmed for the iPhone 4S

It turns out the built-in Panorama capture feature won’t be exclusive to the iPhone 5. The iPhone 4S will have a taste of that 28MP goodness, too, once the iOS 6 update arrives on Sept 19.

The iPhone 4, however, won’t have such luck. Not that this is such a a big loss – every iPhone 4 owner, who’s interested in snapping panoramas, most probably already has a nice Panorama shooting app from the AppStore. My favorite is 360 Panorama. Yours?
