Jailbreak Apple TV 2G iOS 5.0.2 Untethered With Seas0nPass Update

We know that Seas0nPass update released today, which means we can jailbreak Apple tv 2G running on iOS 5.0.2 firmware untethered. Therefore in this post I would like to elaborate the steps to jailbreak iOS 5.0.2 Apple TV 2G for you to follow.

Jailbreak instructions:

Step 1: Firstly download Seas0nPass from the following links based on your OS:
Step 1: After it's entirely downloaded, now extract or unzip Seas0npass.zip file, then launch SeasonPass by clicking on its icon.



Step 2: Since this utility is based on a restore jailbreak, which means you are required to have a custom built IPSW. Therefore select "Create IPSW" between the two option to continue the step.


Step 3: The Seas0nPass will now download Apple TV firmware and it will then utilize the file to create a custom jailbreak file.

Step 4: Now get your micr-USB cable to plug it into your computer and Apple Tv. However, don't plug into power cable, and then iTunes will be opening, close it right away.

Now put your Apple Tv into DFU Mode -- by holding the Menu and Play/Pause buttons together for about 7 seconds.


Step 5: When Seas0nPass has finished its jobs, now it's time for iTunes restoring the custom IPSW file in automatic manner. Then click yes. This process is fully automatic, just wait until it's entirely finished.

After iTunes entirely finished restoring the Apple Tv on iOS 5, now plugin the power and then connect the unit to your PC. Congratulation your Apple TV 2G on iOS 5.0.2 now is jailbroken.

You can see whether you are successful by connect your device to television and then see the interface, if you see the FC icon logo at the right bottom then you are okey.


See you again!

Download Seas0nPass Update To Support Apple TV iOS 5.0.2 Firmware

To respond the release of iOS 5.0.2 firmware for Apple TV yesterday, and after the firmware was found vulnerable against Pod2G untethered exploit, FireCore decided to update their Apple TV jailbreak tool, which is Seas0nPass in order to bring support toward the Apple TV 2G iOS 5.0.2 Build 9B830 firmware Untethered jailbreak.

FireCore tweeted this news via their official Twitter to announce everyone the food is ready to be eaten:



As the SeasonPass placed on our table to consume, then you are pleased and invited to update to the iOS 5.0.2 firmware for your AppleTV 2G (Not 3G). But one thing you need to keep in mind, there is no official changelog and clue yet what Apple has brought to their latest AppleTV firmware.

Download Seas0nPass for Windows.

Download Seas0nPass for Mac OS X.

iOS 5.0.2 Build 9B830 Firmware For Apple TV 2 Still Vulnerable To The Untether

Seems like Apple does not patch the Pod2G untethered exploit, which means that their latest iOS 5.0.2 is still vulnerable to the untether. Is not that a wonderful news? Yes it is.

This is unexpected, albeit we didn't know exactly what Apple has included (as there is no official changelog released) to their latest firmware software when it's released yesterday, but most of us were sure the company should have placed the patch for the untethered exploit, but we were wrong.

The firmware is still defenseless against any exploits, therefore we are quite sure to recommend you to update to the iOS 5.0.2 firmware. The news of this was brought by Kb @nitoTV.


Unfortunately it's not for ATV3, therefore to those who own Apple TV 2, you are safe to upgrade to the iOS 5.0.2 firmware. And have some fun with it. Cheers.
Update: Now you can download Seas0nPass to untethered jailbreak Apple TV 2 running on iOS 5.0.2 firmware.
