The unc0ver jailbreak only just picked up official support for iOS 13.0-13.3 on A12(X)-A13 devices this past weekend. Given just how young the new support is, it’s not overly surprising to learn that there were some bugs that needed to squashed.
In a Tweet shared just this afternoon, Pwn20wnd announced the release of an updated version of the unc0ver jailbreak dubbed version 4.0.3 with important bug fixes:
For Spark email users, the update we covered bringing features like dark mode, avatars, and productivity tools to iPad was great news. And another terrific feature with that update came the ability to customize the email actions toolbar on iOS.
You’ve seen that toolbar at the bottom of an email and used it plenty of times. But modifying it with the actions you need most is another super reason to use Spark. To help you out, here’s a short tutorial on how to customize that Spark email action toolbar.
If you’ve recently jailbroken iOS 13 with checkra1n or unc0ver and you enjoy listening to your favorite songs or media through Apple Music or Spotify, then we have a feeling that you might enjoy a newly released jailbreak tweak called ColorFlow 5 (iOS 13) by iOS developer David Goldman.
As you might’ve inferred from the tweak’s name already, ColorFlow 5 is the fifth iteration of this tweak, and it automatically colorizes the Now Playing interface using the dominant colors from the current track’s album artwork. Examples of this are shown in the screenshots above.
Cyanea is a newly released jailbreak tweak by iOS developer Sirius24 that incorporates a surfeit of fun new ways to customize your jailbroken handset’s system-wide aesthetics and behavior.
Cyanea is the highly-evolved successor of an older tweak called Chameleon that we showed you last year. It permits those users to personalize their device with custom color gradients, color palettes, animations, and more.
Ever since Apple first introduced an OLED display in its smartphone lineup, there’ve been countless jailbreak tweak releases attempting to take full advantage of it. From always-on displays, to revolutionary new notification indicators, there has been no shortage of innovation on this front.
The latest addition to the party is a newly released jailbreak tweak called Dots 2 by iOS developer Shyam Lad, and as depicted in the screenshot examples above, this tweak displays pulsating colorful dots for missed notifications at the top of an always-on pitch black display when the device is locked.
Despite the coronavirus outbreak, future Apple products are thought to be on course for unveilings, with a new twelve-inch iPad Pro rumored to arrive as soon as this March.
Longtime jailbreakers like myself will remember those fun and quirky jailbreak tweaks that could be invoked to simulate gravity on your iPhone’s Home screen. Upon triggering a configured Activator gesture, one could watch in awe as their Home screen icons all fell to the bottom of the screen, almost as if there was a gravitational pull being imposed on them.
It’s been a while since we’ve witnessed such a tweak, but with newfangled jailbreaks like checkra1n and unc0ver permitting various iOS 13 devices to be pwned, now seems like a as good a time as ever for such tweaks to surface once more. That’s why iOS developer Kritanta has released a new and free jailbreak tweak called Gravitation.
Pwn20wnd’s unc0ver jailbreak has enjoyed being the center of attention for the past couple of weeks thanks to newfangled iOS 13.0-13.3 support on A12(X)-A13 devices by way of Brandon Adad’s oob_timestamp tfp0 exploit, but it might not be the only jailbreak in town for long.
Electra Team lead developer CoolStar took to Twitter Monday evening to share a teaser screenshot of what appears to be Chimera13 running on iPadOS 13:
The unc0ver jailbreak received official support for iOS 13.0-13.3 on A12(X)-A13 devices over the weekend thanks to Brandon Azad's OOB Timestamp tfp0 exploit, but from what we can gather, the release wasn’t without its initial flaws as a plethora of users reported issues when trying to jailbreak versions of iOS older than that of 13.3.
Fortunately for those affected by the aforementioned issues, Pwn20wnd has released yet another update for unc0ver to address them, this time bringing the jailbreak tool up to version 4.0.2. The hacker announced the update via Twitter just this afternoon:
In a somewhat miraculous turn of events, it appears that popular jailbreak-centric utilities including the likes of Cydia Impactor and ReProvision have started working again for some users.
The news came first by way of ReProvision lead developer Matt Clarke, who confirmed with us via email that ReProvision was actually alive and well again starting Sunday evening. Tweets shared publicly reveal that the tool was updated over the weekend to bypass the ‘that’s all folks’ message that denoted the tool’s EOL (end of life) and also that the tool wouldn’t be updated anymore if it broke a second time:
We finally know why Instagram is dragging its feet when it comes to an official iPad app, but I bet the company's official explanation probably isn't what you've been hoping to hear.
