FireCore has released an updated version of their jailbreaking tool – Seas0nPass to support untethered jailbreak for Apple TV 4.4.4 software update for second generation Apple TV.
Seas0nPass makes use of pod2G's untethered jailbreak, which was also used by iPhone Dev team to release Redsn0w and by Chronic Dev team to release Corona iOS 5.0.1 Untether jailbreak app earlier in the week.
FireCore has provided the following details on their blog:
Today we are happy to release an updated version of Seas0nPass that supports an untethered jailbreak of the latest 4.4.4 (iOS 5.0.1) AppleTV software. Big thanks goes to the world famous @pod2g for doing the lion's share of the work to make this new version possible.
Jailbreaking Apple TV 2G enables users to install aTV Flash (black), which adds new features to the second generation Apple TV such as web browsing, Last.FM access, support for HTML5 video sites, stream media from most NAS devices and lots more.
You can download the latest version of Seas0nPass and find the user guides at seas0npass.com. Please note if you're already running a tethered version of 4.4.4 you will need to re-jailbreak using Seas0nPass to take advantage of the new untethered version.
As always, let us know how it goes in the comments.

4S Jailbreak?????? :’(
im
confused on apple tv. is it a hub? or actuall TV embedded with apple chip?
Basically yes! I just bought one two days ago and installed xmbc nitrotv on a tethered jb 4.4.3 lol to find this today needless to say I returned it to stock and am returning it. Streaming vid on ice films was terrible and quality sucked. I have a 60″ led shap with apps I wish those were able to be jb
basicly yes what??? which is it?
He’s just telling you he got a 60″ LED Sharp Smart TV.
Haha nah it’s just a hub. Combined with streaming movies from the Internet sucks on a big tv
Iphone 4s jailbreak please
it looks the hardest thing ever.. I’m sure it is! Bcuz even for ipad 2 took a long time to jailbreak. Damm A5 chip! Happy New Year to ever1 
Well first they have to find a exploit for it
So glad I didn’t upgrade to a 4S just yet. An iphone without a jailbreak is just to limiting and costly.
can i install NitoTV with 4.4.4?? whats the point to even upgrade from 4.3??
Ice films works a treat on my atv2! Never had an issue with streaming or quality. I have a 60″ full hd 3D tv!! Just thought I’d slip that in! My broadband isn’t the quickest, but still streams without problem. Never needed untethered jailbreak thought, cos never figured out how to turn atv2 off!
Did it
ATV2 running perfect fine with 4.4.4 and NitoTV stuff and off course XBMC EDEN Beta1
The advantage of upgrading?
- If you have an other iDevice, Airplay is the biggest reason to upgrade
Any step by step on how to do it.
to set up nitro you need to download install putty
check the ip address of the atv then use putty to ssh into it
username root
pw alpine
the type these commands
1, apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
2, apt-get -f install
3, apt-get install com.nito.nitotv
4, killall AppleTV
5, reboot
once rebooted you can go to nitrotv and installation and install xbmc etc
hope that helps
also make sure to turn install the stop apple updates as it crashes xbmc etc sometimes
It didn’t jailbreak my apple tv. The apple tv is running on 4.4.4. Please help
