You can always count on your friends at iDownloadBlog to brief you throughout the week about the latest jailbreak news as it happens, but to help people who miss out on the action, we wrap things up every weekend.
Have you ever found yourself coping with an issue where images wouldn’t load in the official YouTube application for iPhone or iPad?
SleeperX, which is perhaps one of my favorite jailbreak tweaks ever released for alarms on the iPhone, was recently updated to version 2.0.0 with support for rootless jailbreaks on iOS & iPadOS 16 such as Dopamine v2 and palera1n.
Back in 2020, when the MagSafe charging standard was still quite young and only available on Apple’s latest mobile devices, jailbreak tweak developers were making add-ons for pwned handsets that would enable the MagSafe-specific charging animation on non-MagSafe devices when connecting them to power.
In the wake of a new jailbreak release (yes, we’re talking about that thing called Dopamine v2), many jailbreak tweak developers began updating their tweaks or releasing new builds for the latest versions of pwnable iOS & iPadOS.
One of the more common things that we see jailbreakers doing with their iPhones and iPads is modifying the color scheme of their operating system. Previously released jailbreak tweaks like Kaleidoscope by SparkDev and Spectrum by Skittyblock have made this possible, but now, iOS developer rosiepie is releasing a new jailbreak tweak called Flora that has been built for use on modern jailbreaks.
You can always count on the team of iDB to bring you the latest iPhone & iPad hacking and jailbreaking news as it happens. But what good will that do you if you’re too busy to read the posts?
A few years ago, we showed you a jailbreak tweak called ColorBadges that would automatically colorize your apps’ missed notification badges to match the dominant color of the icon itself. Fast-forward to today’s rootless-esque jailbreaks, and this tweak, which was designed to work on rootful jailbreaks, no longer works.
Lots of people like it when their Lock Screen interface is as simple as possible. Perhaps even simpler than Apple makes it right out of the box.
Safari is the default web browser on iPhones and iPads, and so it’s understandable that a lot of people use it. But what’s not so understandable is why Apple doesn’t do more to make the Safari user experience better.
Developers who often find themselves away from their computer, and by extension, Xcode, could benefit from a mobile app development platform for jailbroken devices called SparkCode by iOS developer SparkleChan.
Your friends here at iDB are something of jailbreak-a-holics. We love jailbreaking, but we also love sharing discoveries in the iPhone and iPad hacking communities that further device customization and push the boundaries of what Apple lets us do with stock devices.
