CoolStar’s Electra jailbreak tool for iOS 11.0-11.1.2 has been updated to version 1.0.3 on Sunday with bug fixes and improvements.
Citing the official Electra web page, version 1.0.3 brings with it the following changes:
It’s been an exciting week for the jailbreak community. Not only have we seen the official public release of the Cydia-integrated Electra jailbreak tool for iOS 11.0-11.1.2, but we’ve learned that Saurik is still working on official updates for Cydia and Mobile Substrate.
That aside, tweak developers have been launching new releases for both iOS 10 and iOS 11 all week long, and we’ll show you all of them in this roundup. As usual, we’ll kick things off by showcasing our favorites first and then outline the rest of them afterward.
Facebook is running a limited trial of a new Voice Clips feature.
Photo-sharing service Instagram could be working on voice and video-calling functions.
Out of all the things you can change on a jailbroken iPhone or iPad, it’s easy to forget that you can also customize the Cydia app itself. Fortunately, this little-known fact didn’t slip the mind of iOS developer CydiaGeek.
His latest jailbreak tweak release, dubbed Mypomonella, lets you modify various aspects and behaviors of the Cydia app until you’re satisfied.
One of the primary reasons we jailbreak our devices is to customize how the operating system looks, and a new free jailbreak tweak called LegiBilly by iOS developer i0s_tweak3r holds true to those roots.
LegiBilly lets you add a splash of color to virtually any label or text color throughout iOS, including what you might find on the Home screen, Lock screen, and Status Bar, among others.
Following the first public release of the Electra jailbreak tool for iOS 11.0-11.1.2 this week, there were some initial discrepancies with official versions of Saurik’s Cydia dependencies.
Electra users were later advised to avoid installing the APT 0.7 update from Saurik’s Cydia/Telesphoreo repository, but a new update to Electra on Tuesday should address these issues head-on.
With everything that’s going on lately in the jailbreak community as of late, it’d be an understatement to say that people want to know what’s happening with Saurik and the iOS 11 update for Cydia and Mobile Substrate that he talked about on Reddit several weeks ago.
Following the Electra 1.0 public release this week, Saurik took to Reddit once again to discuss CoolStar's jailbreak tool and his progress on updating Cydia and Mobile Substrate for iOS 11. As usual, the comment is rather long, so bear with us…
It shouldn’t be too much longer before the public gets a proper jailbreak on iOS 11, but in the meantime, developers continue to release jailbreak tweaks for iOS 10 devices that have been pwned with Yalu or G0blin.
In this roundup, we’ll talk about all the new tweaks released throughout the past week. As always, we’ll kick things off by discussing our favorites and wrap things up by outlining the rest afterward.
Anyone with an iPhone 6s or newer can use 3D Touch gestures on their Home screen icons to access Quick Action menus with various app shortcuts. As useful as they can be, these menus can look incredibly bland on stock devices.
A new free jailbreak tweak called SB3DTouchColor by iOS developer Cole Cabral improves the aesthetic of these menus. It does so by colorizing them to match the dominant color of the respective app icon.
After a brief hiatus from Twitter, CoolStar has returned and made important announcements regarding the state of the Electra jailbreak tool for iOS 11.0-11.1.2 devices.
Citing one of his most recent Tweets, Electra’s final build is nearing completion and could be ready for a public release as soon as next week:
