A jailbreak for Apple TV 3 has not been released yet, so watch out as there is a fake site going around claiming to offer Seas0nPass jailbreak for Apple TV 3. On the site you will only find a rewritten old post from FireCore’s blog. There are some fake videos on YouTube as well, claiming to offer tutorials on how to jailbreak Apple TV 3 with Seas0nPass. Don’t get caught! Remember: Seas0nPass is a jailbreaking tool for Apple TV developed by FireCore and you can be sure that when Seas0nPass is updated to support Apple TV 3 jailbreak, FireCore will be the first to announce it on its blog.

Additionally, according to nitoTV, “the appletv 3 jailbreak, whenever it happens will probably NOT be custom ipsw restores [the method Seas0nPass uses]. the UI will likely be different.”

iOS hacker pod2g has posted on his blog a list of tested devices for the upcoming 5.1.1 untethered jailbreak. While it’s still uncertain if Apple TV 2 will be supported in this jailbreak, pod2g has no doubts that the jailbreak won’t be compatible with the Apple TV 3.

In this way the hacker confirmed what he said on the blog earlier this week. pod2g said on Monday that we should expect the 5.1.x untethered jailbreak „in a couple of weeks“ and he added:

It will be compatible with any device running iOS 5.1.1 except iPod 3G, iPhone 3Gs and ATV3 (right now, may change in a near future, nobody knows).

“The Apple TV 3 has successfully been jailbroken and it is untethered,” is a phrase that we have all been eagerly awaiting for the past month now. Though there is no substantial information leading to any Apple TV 3 jailbreak ETA or even the current status of the jailbreak for Apple’s latest family member. Now, even with the seeming lack of information our there, we felt it would be good to put every in one place for our reader’s convenience.

pod2g, perhaps best know for his role in the 5.0 jailbreaking of the iPad 2 and the iPhone 4S, has been hard at work with the latests series of jailbreaks for the iPad 3 and everything underneath it. Though we have received good news in the form of a video showing his iPad 3 using an untethered jailbreak, he mentioned on Twitter:

For now this leaves us to wonder does “may be out” mean there is no hope or is there still a ray of light coming?

nitoTV, perhaps best known for nitoTV for Apple TV, does not currently sound much more optimistic. Known as a bit of an Apple TV guru, I often [and others] tend to hang on every word nitoTV has to say regarding the Apple TV scene. For this very reason Twitter was a buzz the other days as he mentioned something regarding preferred jailbreaks for the Apple TV. In hopes to squash any unsubstantiated hype nitoTV tweeted:

Though there is no great news on Apple TV 3 jailbreak to reveal today, we will be working hard to make sure you all stay apprised of the latest information.
