Apple TV 2 Hacked to Run iOS Apps Without AirPlay [VIDEO] Dec 31st 2011, 03:26 By Gary Ng on December 30th, 2011 0 Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic. The second generation Apple TV recently received an untethered jailbreak for 4.4.4 using Seas0nPass, as released by Firecore. Now, iOS developer @stroughtonsmith has posted a video of an Apple TV 2 hacked to run multiple iOS apps natively: Using @TheMudkip's MobileX window manager for iOS, and @chpwn's MobileLaunchpad launcher to go with it, we now have multiple iOS apps running natively on AppleTV, without AirPlay. Check out the video published below: Based in Toronto, Ontario, @TheMudkip describes his work towards this hack: I rewrote SpringBoard from scratch using only QuartzCore. MobileX isn't linked against UIKit. The Apple TV has yet to receive apps, but @stroughtonsmith notes he ultimately wants Apple to be forced to create an App Store, just like how the iPhone App Store originated back in July of 2008.
