right now, Verizon's iPhone latest iOS is 4.2.10, which is only tethered atm, unless you have previous blobs saved from earlier versions. All the energy to jailbreak untethered will probably be put towards iOS 5
Actually I am pretty sure they already can do an untethered jailbreak on both versions. And if I was them, I wouldn't release it. The reasoning is very simple. All they need to do is check each iOS 5 beta to see if the jailbreak hole still exists. If it does, they sit back and wait with a smile.
That is how the Xbox 360 was hacked on day one. They found a hole in the DVD firmware for the original Xbox and didn't announce the exploit. Microsoft thought the DVD drive was secure and didn't change anything for the 360. Bam, instant exploit.

your probably right, makes sense! I'm getting pumped :-)
Nope I just went to YouTube and they showed me how to do it with out being a developer or registered udid
I was really hoping you wouldn't type that. But that is your problem.
Well you are learning a very valuable lesson. Don't try to circumvent an iOS Beta. Especially when they are doing over the air updates and require the phone to have a proper iOS Team Provisioning Profile loaded.
You are pretty much hosed until one of four conditions occur.
1) You go to your nearest Apple store, plead with them to restore your phone and they take pity on you. Good luck with that one.
2) You spend $99 and become a legit developer.
3) You get someone to legally register your UID on their developer account. Of course the person that does it, then exposes them-self to having their developer account revoked.
4) Wait until iOS 5 is officially released and you use iTunes to load it.

Oh my phone works I restored it back to normal. I just really wanted iOS 5 to work. So I'm guessing theres no way around the developer and udid
