Jailbreak news of the week: tweak injection & Wi-Fi bug breakthroughs on Fugu15, everything you need to know about palen1x, & more…

If there’s one thing you can count on every Sunday morning, it’s iDB’s weekly iPhone jailbreaking and hacking roundup where we discuss all the latest jailbreak tweak releases and news in this space.

In this roundup, we’ll show you everything new spanning the week of Monday, March 6^th through Sunday, March 12^th.

Important stuff from this week

Tweak injection demoed on Fugu15

The Fugu15 jailbreak for arm64e devices (iPhone XS and newer) running iOS & iPadOS 15.0-15.4.1 is known as a developer jailbreak namely because it doesn’t have tweak injection and still has some nasty bugs that need to be dealt with, but at least one of those issues is moving forward in the right direction.

With ElleKit, it seems like tweak injection could be coming to the Fugu15 jailbreak and jailbreaks that are based on it, such as ra1ncloud.

You can learn more about ElleKit and what this means for jailbreaking in our full news post.

Wi-Fi bug fixed on Fugu15 jailbreak

Following the news that tweak injection had been achieved on the Fugu15 jailbreak tool for arm64e devices running iOS 15.0-15.4.1, TrollStore developer opa334 managed to fix the dreaded Wi-Fi bug and post a fix to GitHub.

Together, these improvements bring us one step closer to the possibility of Fugu15 becoming a viable public jailbreak, but there’s still more work to do first before that happens.

You can find out more about this Wi-Fi bug fix achievement in our full news post.

Everything you need to know about palen1x

Even if you don’t have a Mac, you can still jailbreak with palera1n by using the palen1x USB flash drive-based installer. It makes a bootable drive that you can boot into and jailbreak your compatible A9-A11 chip-equipped iPhone or iPad running iOS or iPadOS 15.0-16.x on demand.

In our in-depth post, we talk about what palen1x is, how it works, and whether or not you should consider using it in a pinch.

IPA Ranger

With the new IPA Ranger app, you can easily use the ipatool utility via a graphical user interface instead of a command line interface.

This utility lets you download .ipa files directly from the App Store using your Apple ID.

You can learn more about IPA Ranger and where you can get it from in our full review post.

Everything else from this week
