Lets be honest, i think alot of the people on here would have android kit, but alot of the people here have jobs/money so can afford to buy decent kit, if i were poor i’d have an android no problem!

In reply to Mr.kipz. Where is the best forum to track progress for the Apple TV 3 jailbreak hack?

I have both an atv3 and co-star I have to say that neither does everything I want and having both is worthwhile. Lets look at pros and cons. Atv3 pros, simple streamlined works awsome at what it is able to do. It by far has the wife acceptance factor she would never use the co-star. With AirPlay and a 4s or iPad 3/4 the Apple TV does everything the Co-star does and in my opinion better. Co-star it does everything you can imagine and if you have a cable box it does cool overlays and such you can browse the web. You can play flash it even has a slingplayer app. Which the remote Amazingly doesn’t fully support. It has the android market the remote has a keyboard and Bluetooth. And touchpad (which is barely useable still haven’t figured out clicking.) works sometimes not others. The remote controls your receiver and tv. It is the most versite device imaginable. And if you get more intertainment out of tinkering than watching tv, lets face it most here do it provides mutch more. But a jailbroken atv is like having your cake and eating it too. And in my humble opinion is mutch better. Oh and did I mention I am an apple snob. I have iPad 4 on preorder Ipad mini preorder iphone 5 wife has iPhone 4S kids have iPod touch 4gs. I have a Mac mini and a MacBook Pro. And I buy and repair all apple. So I know what I am talking about. If you want to know more about my adventures follow me on twitter. @newtonjosh1

In reply to han. Not sure I expect in a month but apple is still signing 5.0.2. I was able to downgrade my firmware from 5.1 to 5.0.2 then ran seas0npass. Might need itunes 10.6 to accomplish this itunes 10.7 kept giving me errors. I did this yesterday so its still live.

In reply to deeviousgenius. They just wanna be heard like a 6 year old throwing a tantrum. The apple tv is a excellent device and when the atv2 first released I bought it with hopes that it would do what it can now. Just waiting on ios 6 jailbreak to release for it.

I am thinking it might very well be the case that Apple is testing the security of the bootrom in the wild with Apple TV3 so they can ship it with iPhone 5 in September. Hopefully the same bootrom will be in iPhone 5 as that would put the jailbreaking community full force at work and break this sweet little black box as well 🙂

The chances of a ATV3 jailbreak is as good as finding a unicorn in my backyard.

In reply to Rad. Well you're just wrong Rad, the Apple TV3 is selling in numbers that the older units could only have dreamed of. Apple is doing very well with this device which is outselling all of the others, so they must be doing something right.
