    Rules

    1. r/jailbreak does not allow piracy tools, sources, or websites.

    1A. No pirated tweaks, apps, etc. Please also do not post or advertise products, mirrors or services that are in violation of the copyrights/trademarks of others. Why?

    1B. Please do not name, share or discuss unauthorized signing services on r/jailbreak. ONLY jailbreaks.app is allowed.
    Many signing services host apps that are pirated from the App Store, rehosted without the permission of the developer, or maliciously modified. Why?

    1C. Do not attempt to deliberately bypass our piracy filters. Doing so will result in a temporary or permanent ban. See here for more information.

    2. Theming-related posts belong in r/iOSthemes.

    Themes (and theme-related questions or news), setup showcases, and all questions regarding aesthetic-oriented tweaks should be posted in r/iOSthemes.

    3. No misleading/all-caps titles. Titles must contain at least three words and include a Flair.

    Use detailed titles for both news and questions. Also, link to the source of news, such as the developer who made the announcement, instead of linking to blogspam.

    4. No exceptionally low-effort posts.

    Memes, image macros, DAE posts, karma-farming, shitposts, etc. are not allowed here. Similar low-quality/low-effort posts will be removed at the mods' discretion. Please read here for clarification.

    5. No posts or comments about bypassing passcodes or other device locks/restrictions.

    Posts or comments about removing passcodes from locked devices or bypassing locks such as Activation Lock, IMEI lock, iCloud lock, MDM restrictions, etc. are prohibited.

    History has shown that these situations usually involve a device that is stolen or otherwise not fully/legally owned by the user. The mods are not able to verify individual cases, so to avoid potentially facilitating theft or fraud, the topic is prohibited altogether.

    This rule applies also for MacOS and checkra1n.

    6. Do not buy/sell devices or ask for money.

    You may discuss the general topic of buying/selling devices, but advertising your own device(s) for sale, asking if anyone will sell you a device, asking how much your device is worth, etc. is not allowed. Asking for money or crowdfunding for any purpose without explicit permission is not allowed (with some exceptions).

    If you wish to buy/sell a jailbroken device, visit r/jailbreakswap.

    If you wish to request donations or crowdfunding, please message the mods first for permission.

    7. Be civil and friendly.

    7A. No insulting/rude comments or posts. Additionally, do not be rude or unhelpful when responding to posts tagged [Question].

    7B. No racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, etc. comments or posts. Any user that targets hate at another user/group based on sex, race, religion, sexual/gender orientation, etc., as defined by reddit's policy on hate based on identity or vulnerability, will receive an immediate permanent ban without warning.

    8. Topic must be jailbreak-related.

    Posts must be directly related to iOS jailbreaking (with some exceptions).

    9. Please read the FAQ, read the sidebar, and search before posting.

    Posts that ask the most frequently asked questions will be removed by moderators, as they are either answered in our FAQ or on the sidebar.

    10. Avoid fueling excessive drama.

    Anyone who participates on the sub solely for the sake of starting or continuing drama will be banned. Note that this only applies if all you do is make posts and comments for the sole purpose of fueling drama.

    Found iPhone 8 on 14.7.1 Should I upgrade for app support or live with AppStore++?

    As the title reads I would like to daily drive this iPhone I just found. Is it best to just update to iOS 16 or should I jailbreak and preserve the OS and just live with old app versions and spoofers?

    Has anybody tried this jailbreak yet?

    So to jailbreak an iphone, we need to find a way to the operating system such that we can escape the sandbox. And where is the operating system stored? On the ssd chips inside the Phone. normally, apps that we make have to interact with the storage through syscalls that restrict what we can access and don't let us modify the operating system. However, I have thought of a way to bypass these restrictions. You see, when our app runs, the iOS is executing our machine code, the same type of machine code that the operating system itself runs on. So, we can just find out the machine code that the iOS uses to write to storage directly, then embed that code in our app, and change the place where it writes to the place where the os is stored, and we write a custom jailbroken os. restart the phone, and it's jailbroken. i can't think of any way that the os would stop us from executing the same instructions that it does, because it would basically have to virtualize an entire cpu to check every instruction we run, which would be way to slow. someone should try this.

    Cydia account tweaks

    For the past 6 years I have been away from jailbreaking. I was really into jailbreaking from iOS 8-iOS 11 and bought some tweaks on Cydia. I recently bought a 6s with iOS 9.3.5 and jailbroke it with Kok3shi9. I tried logging into my Cydia account through Facebook. That’s what my Cydia account was connected to. Well apparently safari on iOS 9 is not compatible with Facebook. When I try to sign into my Cydia account, Cydia uses the safari browser and it says, “unsupported browser”. I type in my username and password but when I press the login button nothing happens, so I can’t sign into my Cydia account. Is there any other way to access the tweaks I paid for? They were really cool like Auxo Legacy, Auris, and Springtomize.

    Zebra not working

    Hi, on my phone (NekoJB, I changed from Dopamine for rootful but not the flair cause I will jump back soon) Zebra doesn't let me install anything. When I press Install it gets me to the queue and the confirm button is not active so I can't press it. What could be the problem? PS: My phone has 16 GB.

    [Question] Non-rootless tweaks on Dopamine OR rootful jailbreak of iPhone Pro 12

    Hello,

    I am trying to get CCPatch13, a tweak that does not support rootless, to work on Dopamine. Alternatively, I could use a way to do a rootful jailbreak on iPhone 12 Pro / IOS 16....

    I have been stuck on this for a while: CCPatch will not download on my phone because I have a rootless jailbreak. I have looked into doing a rootful jailbreak, but apparently this is not possible in the iPhone 12 Pro (at least not with Palera1n due to the phone's ARM64).

    It seems Xinam1ne could have been a solution to my problem, but the API file has been taken offline.

    Any help will be much appreciated :). I am new to Jailbreak and have been spending a whole afternoon on this.

    Thank you.

    Apple ID question

    I recently jailbroke an old iPad mini I pretty much just had cydia on a semi untethered on it for maybe a week or two (it died somewhere along the way forgot to charge) before I accidentally got my id locked. I started restoring the mini but the jb id has my email and phone number on it I changed my email on my main account but is it still at risk of being locked by apple? If so what do i do?
