With all the exciting news circulating in the jailbreak community recently, it would have been easy to miss a silent update to the developer-centric palera1n checkm8 bootrom exploit-based jailbreak tool for iOS 15.x, which appears to have received a recent and unannounced upgrade to version 1.2.0.
One of the hallmark new features of the iPhone 14 Pro & 14 Pro Max, apart from the controversial Dynamic Island, is the always-on display. This is a feature that other smartphone brands have had for years, in addition to iPhone jailbreakers who used tweaks to unlock similar capabilities. But now, it’s available to everyone.
TrollStore, the insanely popular perma-signing utility for iOS & iPadOS 14.0-15.4.1 (and some iOS 15.5 betas) received an update this Monday afternoon to version 1.2.1 with a couple of minor tweaks.
The TrollStore perma-signing utility by iOS developer opa334 was updated to version 1.2 late Tuesday afternoon with support for a new installation method called TrollHelperOTA and a few miscellaneous bug fixes.
Renowned security researcher Linus Henze on Monday updated the support notes of the Fugu15 jailbreak that he demonstrated on an iOS 15.4.1 device this past Thursday at the Objective by the Sea security conference.
Palera1n, the developer-focused checkm8 bootrom exploit-based iOS & iPadOS 15.x jailbreak that has been making rounds in the community as of late, was updated to version 1.1.1 late Saturday night.
If you’ve been following along with us this week, then you’ve undoubtedly heard about the new developer-centric palera1n jailbreak for iOS & iPadOS 15.0-15.7 which is based on the same checkm8 bootrom exploit that made the checkra1n jailbreak famous.
Just yesterday, iDB showed you palera1n, a checkm8 bootrom exploit-based ‘developer only’ jailbreak for iOS & iPadOS 15.0-15.7 with tweak injection on select devices running iOS 15.0-15.3.1. Today, the incorporated support for tweak injection has been expanded to more devices.
Jailbreaking isn’t just for iPhones. In fact, just about any device that runs firmware has the capacity to be hacked so that the end user can run mods not initially intended by the manufacturer of said device. Sony fans found that out Monday after an apparent jailbreak surfaced for the PlayStation 5 – Sony’s latest game console as of 2022.
TrollStore, the popular utility for perma-signing .ipa files on devices running iOS or iPadOS 14.0-15.4.1 beta 4, has been updated to version 1.1.2 with a minor convenience adjustment that will help users who take advantage of Apple’s proprietary AirDrop file-sharing service for installing files.
Just last Thursday, Apple publicly released iOS 16.0.2 with a patchwork of bug fixes for the company’s latest mobile operating system – iOS 16. Just some of the remedies included with the update were a solution for the freaky camera vibration when using third-party apps and a resolution for the excessive clipboard permission prompts users would get upon pasting text copied from one app to another, among other things.
We’ve been talking a lot about TrollStore lately, and for good reason. In the absence of a jailbreak for iOS & iPadOS 15, it’s the closest thing we’ve got. That’s because it lets users perma-sign apps on their iPhones and iPads with elevated privileges that come eerily close to the capabilities of jailbreak tweaks – see Cardio, Filza, Legizmo Kincaid, and Mugunghwa as just a few different examples.
