Evad3rs team provided the jailbreak community with iOS 6.1.2-6.0 untethered jailbreak but iOS 6.1.3 patched some of the critical exploits used in evasi0n jailbreak. The new 6.1.3 jailbreak required the use of new exploits, so the evad3rs decided to not pursue it and wait for iOS 7. But this didn’t stop other popular jailbreak hackers, the developer Winocm reports that he has a binary to untethered jailbreak iOS 6.1.3 on iPhone.
News of an untethered iOS 6.1.3 is indeed a great one for Cydia lovers. Winocm explains that he has the untethered binary for iOS 6.1.3, but needs some more work. Here’s what he tweeted:
I now have a binary that untethers 6.1.3. Needs some more work though.

He further explains that his 6.1.3 untethered binary barely works on A4 powered iPhone 4 GSM only. While he acknowledges that it still “needs some more work” this, probably, is the best hope for those iPhone 4 users looking for a real untethered iOS 6.1.3 jailbreak.
(Before you all go out and think I’m magically supporting all devices, the iPhone 4 GSM version barely works. And it’s the only one I made.)

He further notes that the iOS 6.1.3 untethered jailbreak binary is not applicable to the upcoming iOS 7 beta and he won’t be working on it because some other people are taking care of iOS 7 untethered jailbreak.
@GH0STi It’s not useful on iOS 7. I don’t care about iOS 7. Other people are taking care of iOS 7.

UnthreadedJB, who recently released untethered jailbreak for iPhone 4 CDMA iOS 5.1, also claims to have an untethered jailbreak for iOS 6.1.3 firmware. We don’t know if this recent iOS 6.1.3 jailbreak binary claim has anything to do with UnthreadedJB.
With iOS 7 just around the corner, are you still looking for an iOS 6.1.3 untethered jailbreak? Share your thoughts on the comments section below…
