Dopamine, the iOS & iPadOS 15-16-esque jailbreak tool developed by Lars Fröder, the same developer behind the TrollStore perma-signing utility, picked up another small update this weekend in the form of version 2.4.2.
Most people pay no mind to device maintenance, but when you jailbreak an iPhone or iPad, there may be an enhanced need for these kinds of practices. That’s because jailbreak tweaks installed by the end user hook into system processes in ways that Apple never designed them to, increasing the chance for crashes, hangs, and other inconsistencies.
You can count on your friends at iDownloadBlog to keep you in the know about everything happening in the iPhone and iPad jailbreak communities. Not only do we cover the latest in terms of device hacks and exploits, but we also share jailbreak tweak releases and updates on a regular basis throughout the week.
If you’re an iPhone jailbreaker who considers shell commands to be an important part of your daily device customization workflow, then you might be able to make use of a newly released app called Presets by iOS developer Hans32.
If you’re in search of next-level control over each and every process that runs on your jailbroken iPhone or iPad, then a newly released app called Extrude by iOS developer Hans32 just might check all the boxes on whatever requirements list you’re keeping.
One of the features that Apple made available in iOS & iPadOS 16 and later that I cherish greatly is the ability to copy my current Wi-Fi network password to my clipboard so that I can paste it elsewhere in the operating system, whether that’s a text message, a note to myself, or something else.
The Dynamic Island is something that first debuted on the iPhone 14 Pro series of handsets to replace the notch-based TrueDepth camera system that debuted with Face ID when Apple launched the iPhone X, and it’s designed to integrate all of the TrueDepth camera system into a blacked out region of the OLED display that integrates tightly with system animations and notifications to provide the illusion that it’s a part of the display.
Around a week ago, we reported about the implications that iOS & iPadOS 18.4 developer beta 1 had on the use of just-in-time (JIT) compilation for iPhone and iPad apps used outside of the native debugger, which would affect its use inside of sideloaded apps with the help of utilities like AltJIT, SideJIT, and Jitterbug, among others.
Another week, another intriguing write-up by the young and talented hobbyist security researcher @alfiecg_dev, who just this weekend published a blog post about a new deterministic kernel exploit called Trigon that is based on CVE-2023-32434, the same bug that the Kernel File Descriptor (KFD) exploit utilized with puaf_smith and was patched in iOS & iPadOS 16.5.1.
If you’re into jailbreaking your iPhone or iPad, then you have a home here at iDownloadBlog, where many of our staff share the same tenacity for the hobby of customizing their devices well outside of the stock bounds provided by Apple.
Speaking at a cybersecurity conference called Nullcon Goa 2025, Dopamine jailbreak and TrollStore perma-signing utility lead developer Lars Fröder, also more colloquially known around these parts as @opa334dev, took the stage to discuss the state of jailbreaking iPhones and iPads at present time.
Whether you have an iPhone with a native Dynamic Island or you’ve used some add-on to replicate the Dynamic Island user experience on a notched handset, you can take advantage of a newly released jailbreak tweak called K2geIsland by iOS developer mafu to get more out of it.
