As you know, Jay Freeman just released Cydia Extender utility. It offers a solid alternative to Cydia Impactor and lets you sign Yalu on-device. However, this tool is still causing issues on some devices.
So Luca came forward and dropped a bomb.

JBME102 – Untethered jailbreak for iOS 10.2

The upcoming JailbreakMe will make your jailbreak fully untethered and remove the 7-day limit altogether.
Even though it just takes minutes to re-jailbreak your device with Cydia Impactor, an untethered jailbreak has its benefits. It will be useful in the following scenarios.
- You don’t have access to a computer all the time.
- The latest version of Cydia Impactor is not working properly and throwing errors.
- Cydia Extender utility is not working or installing properly on your device. If it’s working for you, read this guide to make your iOS 10.1.1/10.2 jailbreak fully untethered.
- Your device accidentally reboots and you are left without a jailbreak.
- This will be perfect for those who are always on-the-go.
JBME102 will have some limitations too. It will only work on iOS 10.2 only. This means if you have an iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 plus running iOS 10.1.1, your device will be incompatible.
How JBME102 Jailbreak Works
The untethered jailbreak will be called JBME102 when Apple releases iOS 10.3 final. You will only require an internet correction and nothing else.
Here’s the complete installation process
- Launch Safari web browser on your device.
- Open the JBME102 web page.
- Install JBME102 tool with the click of a button.
- Enjoy your untethered iOS 10.2 Jailbreak.
Luca is Lord Voldemort
If you remember, Saurik was working with a developer codenamed “Voldemort” on Cydia Extender.
Luca revealed that he was that “Voldemort”. Strong name!
I was saurik’s “mistery man” for his thing, but didn’t find time to pull it off. Now I have time and 1day, so I’d rather do it jbme style.

Luca also said he wasn’t able to work with Saurik. He will make up for that by releasing his untethered solution.
JBME102 Release Date – ETA WEN?
A release date hasn’t been specified as of now. One thing is sure, we won’t be getting our feet wet until Apple rolls out iOS 10.3. So stay on iOS 10.2 and DO NOT upgrade your device.
Luca Todesco has also released JailbreakMe for iOS 9.3.3 before. So this doesn’t come as a surprise. He is always on the prowl for these kinds of exploits.
