You may have heard about a nasty iOS 4.1 bug that causes the alarm bell to ring off one hour earlier than the scheduled time. According to the conversation ZDNet had with Apple Australia, the Cupertinos have plans of rolling out an iOS 4.1.1 update that will fix this annoying little bug.

Here's what Apple had to say about the issue:

- We're aware of this issue and already developed a fix which will be available to customers in an upcoming software update

Knowing Apple, I highly doubt if the iOS 4.1.1 update, which will be the first minor update for iOS 4.1 will only fix the alarm clock app bug. There is a high chance of the upcoming update patching the exploit used by the recently launched iOS 4.1 jailbreak tool Limera1n. In case you want to save your device from becoming a non jailbroken one, you are advised to save the precious SHSH blob of your iDevice using the instructions posted here.
