    Default "Greenpois0n Booting into recovery mode... 80% waiting for download Soon"

    So @Geohot_us posted on Twitter, "Greenpois0n Booting into recovery mode... 80% waiting for download Soon"

    Does this mean it's almost done?

    Heck no, I didn't do anything. I just seen this on Twitter and was curious as to what it meant.

    That is not a credible source at all. Any true announcements will be made on one of the dev team websites below or by one of the twitter accounts listed on them.

    Didn't GeoHot quit the jailbreaking scene anyway? Regardless on wether or not he works with a dev-team.

    It isn't really him. As far as anyone knows, he's stuck to his declaration of leaving the community for good.

    Geohot deleted his twitter account a long time ago when he quit the JB scene. That is a faker.

    I doubt he has fully retired, although he isn't releasing any jailbreaks to the public you can bet he is still finding exploits for the fun of it
