According to Hotz's blog, he traded his unlocked 8GB iPhone to Terry Daidone, the founder of Certicell, for a Nissan 350Z and 3 8GB iPhones.[6] Hotz said he wanted to give the iPhones to the other members of the team who created the hack with him.[7] Hotz's hardware based unlocking technique has largely been replaced by software unlocking that does not require dis-assembly of the iPhone.[8]
On February 8, 2008, Hotz developed the software unlock for the iPhone's new Bootloader Version 4.6 that was previously only achievable with a "testpoint based hardware unlock".[9]
On July 3, 2009, Hotz announced purplera1n, the first public software exploit for jailbreaking the iPhone 3GS. Details were posted on his blog.[10]
On October 11, 2009, at 3:33AM Hotz released blackra1n, a jailbreak for all iPhones and iPod Touches. The only caveat was that the iPod touch 3G would need a "tethered jailbreak" to work.
On October 25, 2009, Hotz released Blackra1n RC2, an update to his previous blackra1n utility. This version allows MC Model iPod Touch 2G (8GB iPod Touch "3G") and new-bootrom iPhone 3GS users to jailbreak their iPod touches as well. (tethered jailbreak only)[11]
On October 31, 2009, Hotz announced the impending release of Blackra1n RC3, this version will include blacksn0w which will allow SIM unlock of all iPhones using Blacksn0w RC1.[12] Blacksn0w was originally scheduled for release on November 4, 2009, but due to positive test results it was moved to the 3rd. Blacksn0w was the #1 trending topic on Twitter as requested by GeoHot only moments after its release.
On April 13, 2010, Hotz or someone impersonating him, established a website for his newest jailbreak software limera1n.[13] Limera1n is rumored to be his newest jailbreaking tool. It is rumored to be able to jailbreak iPhone OS 3.1.3 as well as 4.0 on the iPhone 3G, 3GS, and iPad.[14]
On June 24, 2010, Hotz wrote on Twitter that he had no plans to release a new jailbreak. He has told people looking for a jailbreak release to 'keep an eye on Spirit,[15] the currently used program for 3.1.x jailbreaking, which lead to the belief there are plans to update the software to allow iOS 4.0 jailbreaking. This however has not had a release date confirmed.[16]
On July 10, 2010, Hotz published that he had been able to jailbreak an iPhone 4 running iOS 4.0. As evidence, he provided a picture of the device executing Cydia. This post has since been edited and blocked from public view, in which Hotz stated that the picture was "quite obviously fake", addressing himself to "the haters".
On July 13, 2010, Hotz announced his retirement from iDevices hacking, saying that it's not fun as it used to be, and people were taking too serious something he used to do just as a distraction when he was bored. [17]
On October 8, 2010, Hotz confirmed he was releasing a Jailbreak on 10/11/10; one day after the release of GreenPois0n. He also posted a picture of limera1n running on an iPhone 3G S, iPod Touch 4G, iPhone 4, and iPad, these images are viewed by going to www.Limera1n.com and clicking on the Limera1n icon in the middle of the page.
On October 9th, however, Hotz released his jailbreak early - suspending the release of the Shatter exploit in the form of Greenpois0n, due for release the next day. On the limera1n website, he claims this was to make the Chronic Dev team "do the right thing" - presumably implying that they should save their jailbreak exploit for fifth generation devices. [18]
On October 9th, Hotz released Limera1n Beta 1, with 3GS bootrom not working. The jailbreak is downloadable at Limera1n.com
