iH8Sn0w has updated Sn0wBreeze with the ability to perform an untethered jailbreak of A4 devices on iOS 5.1.1.

What is New?
● Added the 5.1.1/9B206 untether that was released with today's absinthe update.
● Added 5.0/9B206f (Apple TV 2) support.
● Minor UI changes (thanks @icj_!).
● Bug Fixes.

A5(X) Support?:
As stated many times in the past, sn0wbreeze cannot be updated to work on A5(X) devices until a low level exploit in DFU or iBoot is found and made public. Therefore, A5(X) users will have to rely on using the lovely absinthe.

A5(X) Baseband Preservation/Hacktivation?
For those running A5(X) devices and need to preserve your baseband, there is nothing you can do at the moment. For those wanting to hacktivate, the only advice I can give is to buy the carrier's SIM (the one its locked to obviously) on ebay. The SIM does not have to be active with the carrier to activate the phone.

iH8Sn0w also notes that as of yet Sn0wBreeze does not support the new 9B208 build of iOS 5.1.1 for the iPhone 4 GSM.

You can download Sn0wBreeze 2.9.4 from here.
