The checkra1n team is best known for their checkm8 bootrom exploit-based checkra1n jailbreak tool, which just yesterday picked up support for Linux after being macOS-only for several months. We’ve known for quite some time that the checkra1n team intended to delve into more than just jailbreaking with the checkm8 bootrom exploit, and the fruits of such research are finally starting to surface.
The checkra1n team took to Twitter early Thursday morning to announce the initial release of PongoKit, a highly experimental and developer-only SDK that should help permit the deployment of other platforms on checkm8 vulnerable iOS devices:
As Steve Jobs once said, your finger is the best pointing device for your iPhone. But with enough manual scrolling effort, it may not take long before you start to experience finger fatigue, especially when reading lengthy websites or eBooks.
Those looking for a solution to the finger fatigue problem when scrolling endlessly may enjoy a newly released jailbreak tweak called AutoScroll by iOS developer pxcex. Just as the name implies, this add-on incorporates automatic scrolling into iOS.
If you use Zebra on your jailbroken iPhone or iPad, then you may want to launch your preferred package manager and refresh your sources.
Zebra has received a fresh update this Wednesday afternoon, and if you’ve been keeping track, today’s update officially brings the app up to version 1.0.7.
The checkra1n team updated the checkm8 bootrom exploit-based checkra1n jailbreak tool to version 0.9.8 beta on Wednesday with a plethora of changes, including full-fledged Linux support for the very first time.
The exciting announcement was shared early this morning in a Tweet shared via Twitter, which revealed only a small amount of context:
Having already tested a bunch of iPad keyboard cases, iDB's video editor Harris Craycraft thinks he's found one that perhaps has it all. With a newly launched protective case from Doqo, your iPad Pro gains not only a backlit physical keyboard but also a built-in trackpad and many missing ports, turning that tablet of yours into a touchscreen MacBook Air of sorts.
Microsoft today pushed an update to the native Outlook app for iPhone and iPad which brings support for iOS's side-by-side Split View multitasking mode on iPad. This makes you more productive by making it easy to open multiple emails at once on your Apple tablet.
Zagg's new keyboard solution for Apple's 10.2-inch iPad which was officially announced at the CES show in January is now available to purchase through the company's website.
Reachability is a feature Apple put into iOS to make using taller iPhones easier with just one hand, especially for the small-handed folk out there. But if you have the ability to reach that high up with just your thumb when using your iPhone one-handed or you want to make better use of the space when using two hands, then you might view the Reachability interface as a complete and utter waste of space.
If you identify as the latter category, then you’ll probably come to appreciate that of a newly released jailbreak tweak dubbed Carbonite by iOS developer Antique. This tweak aims to make the Reachability interface more useful by filling it with toggles and shortcuts that can make your life easier in day-to-day usage.
As you select bodies of text in iOS, whether that’s from a website, a text-editing app, or somewhere else, you’ve probably gotten accustomed to seeing a light blue highlight designating the text you’ve selected. I love that I can select text to copy and paste elsewhere in iOS, but I generally wish Apple provided more aesthetic customization in this department.
Enter SelectTextColors, a newly released jailbreak tweak by iOS developer pxcex that responds to this longstanding request by letting users customize their selected text highlighting colors.
Your iPhone and iPad are wireless communication devices that use either Wi-Fi or cellular connections to maintain a continuous flow of data to and from the device. But wouldn’t it be nice if Apple gave users more control over their handset’s network parameters?
Those looking to obtain more fine-grained control over their iPhone or iPad’s wireless networking may take a liking to a newly released jailbreak tweak called SmartNetwork by iOS developer Elias Sfeir. As the name implies, this tweak offers a suite of features that let you manage your handset’s connections more effectively.
Checkra1n has long enjoyed its prestigious status of being the first and only jailbreak tool to take advantage of the checkm8 bootrom exploit, but could that change in the near future?
A curious new posting shared just this evening on /r/jailbreak appears to detail a new jailbreak tool dubbed Fugu that is being dubbed the “first open-source jailbreak tool based on the checkm8 exploit” by its creator Linus Henze. This eye-popping development certainly grabbed our attention, but a closer look at the project's GitHub page reveals the fine print:
