Developer temporarily pulls nekoJB kfd-based jailbreak for arm64 devices, says it will be back soon

Just yesterday, we reported on the release of nekoJB, a kfd exploit-based semi-untethered jailbreak tool for older arm64 devices (iPhone 6s-iPhone X) running iOS & iPadOS 15.0-15.7.6.

The first public beta of nekoJB has been temporarily pulled.

Available as an alternative to palera1n for a smaller subset of firmware versions on these devices, nekoJB was an anticipated product. Sadly, it was pulled this morning by the developer, albeit temporarily.

In a post shared to X (formerly Twitter) early Thursday morning, project lead developer HAHALOSAH shared that they had decided to pull nekoJB public beta 1 because it contained files that the developer didn’t have permission to share.

Fortunately, the developer is now  working on public beta 2, which will address these concerns. Those files were purportedly unused by the jailbreak process, so removing them shouldn’t be a problem.

While there is no ETA apart from “soon,” the developer says that public beta 2 fix some of the preliminary issues that early users were experiencing in addition to removing those files.

As always, keep it tuned to iDB and we’ll keep our readers apprised of the latest jailbreak news as it happens.
