The iPhone Dev-Team has released a PwnageTool bundle to jailbreak the new Apple TV 4.3 (4.22) build 8F305 firmware.

Apple released a minor update to iOS 4.3 for AppleTV2G (the IPSW name still says 4.3, but the build version changed from 8F202 to 8F305). @i0n1c was once again able to quickly port his original 4.3.1 untether (the exploit that wouldn’t die!) to this version.

If you do feel like updating to the "new" 4.3, you’ll need to drop this bundle into the correct folder in PwnageTool.app. If you don’t know how to do that, there are lots of tutorials on the web, and we’d be glad to help in the comments below.

You can find instructions on how to add a bundle to PwnageTool here.

You can download the bundle here. Then follow the same steps as this tutorial.

great. Now can someone PLEASE Work on an unlock software for the iPhone4 (from the USA with firmware 03.10.04..and others). It's been over six months now and still holding a useless iPhone 4 that I cannot use to make calls. Should I give up and sell it for peanuts or is there hope/ light at the end of the tunnel? does anyone know?

I think its just that there are not so many hackers anymore on iOS but most of them are fiddling with the enemy - Android.
