TrollStore received its first update yesterday in several weeks, adding the ability to enable Developer Mode right from the app on iOS 16 and later. But on Friday, project lead developer Lars Fröder (@opa334dev) released another update, this time to version 2.0.10.
Announced via a post shared to X (formerly Twitter) Friday afternoon, TrollStore version 2.0.10 appears to fix some problems that were introduced by the version 2.0.9 update announced only yesterday.
Citing the change log, TrollStore version 2.0.10 introduces the following changes:
– Fix a v2.0.9 regression where app installations would fail with error 175 if any of the binaries contained inside the app had no entitlements at all
– Improve encryption detection code to not produce an error if only some binaries are encrypted, now as long as the main binary is decrypted, only a warning will be shown
This update is important for users to install if they upgraded to version 2.0.9 yesterday because it fixes a regression. Even if you didn’t update your TrollStore version yesterday: it’s a good idea for all users to update because of the improvements to app encryption detection.
If you’re already using TrollStore, then you’ll find a button in the app’s settings to quickly and easily update to the latest version over the air. The app will appear to crash moments after installing the update, but if you re-launch the app afterward, you will find that the latest version has been installed.
Anyone that isn’t already using TrollStore, and would like to get started, can download the latest version from the project’s GitHub page and install it using one of the methods outlined below:
- How to install TrollStore on iOS 14.0-15.6.1
- How to install TrollStore on A12+ devices on iOS 15.0-16.6.1 with Misaka
- How to install TrollStore on A12+ devices on iOS 16.0-16.6.1 with PureKFD
TrollStore, for those who’ve never heard of it, is a perma-signing utility that utilizes a powerful CoreTrust bug in iOS and iPadOS. This means that it’s possible to install .ipa files permanently on-device, unlike sideloading, which requires a user to re-sign the app with their Apple ID every seven days.
TrollStore’s CoreTrust bug has also been useful in the development of a “semi-jailbreaks” like Serotonin, which are effectively system tweak injection that allows users to run certain jailbreak tweaks without a jailbreak. Serotonin itself depends on the RootHide development team’s Procursus-based bootstrap, which lets developers inject tweaks into apps, but not the system itself.
TrollStore supports iOS & iPadOS versions 14.0-17.0, however installation methods currently only exist for iOS & iPadOS 14.0-16.6.1. Installation methods for iOS & iPadOS 16.7-17.0 could come at a future date, however no one knows when.
