If you have an arm64e device (iPhone XR or newer) on iOS or iPadOS 15.0-16.5.1, then the rootless Dopamine jailbreak will probably be your first choice for jailbreaking. It’s by far the most ubiquitous jailbreak for those device and firmware options available.
The things you can do with Artificial Intelligence (AI) these days is incredible, and we have a feeling that it’s only going to keep getting better as time marches on. But if you’re donning a jailbroken iPhone or iPad and you find AI to be especially thrilling or useful, then you might take an interest in a newly released jailbreak tweak called Write Now by iOS developers 82flex and launchctl.
Before the Dopamine v2 jailbreak came out, the Serotonin semi-jailbreak was all the rage because it allowed users to install and use various forms of jailbreak tweaks without the full jailbreak environment. Serotonin remains relevant on iOS & iPadOS 16.5.1-16.6.1 even today because these firmware versions aren’t yet jailbreakable on arm64e devices. Serotonin, on the other hand, does support them.
In an interesting turn of events this week, it would seem that the RootHide development team is joining forces with the Procursus team to unify as a single group.
Around a week ago, we shared the news about a breakthrough new tool called meowbrek2 by iOS developer @dora2ios that could effectively turn the semi-tethered palera1n jailbreak for arm64 devices running iOS 15-16 into a semi-untethered jailbreak by making use of the kfd exploit.
If you’ve been following jailbreaking in the past year, then you’ve undoubtedly heard about the XinaA15 jailbreak. It was around long before Dopamine was and supported iOS & iPadOS 15.0-15.1.1 devices, but it used arguably hacky methods to maintain a rootful-like user experience that eventually earned it deprecation in the community due to the community moving full-force over to rootless.
We previously reported on security researcher Linus Henze publishing a rootful edition of his Fugu15 semi-untethered perma-signed iOS & iPadOS 15.0-15.4.1 jailbreak for developers.
It was only a couple of days ago that the RootHide jailbreak detection bypass for rootless jailbreaks such as Dopaminecame out of beta, and it’s been taking the community by storm. But since its release, many users reported how it didn’t work in certain apps.
Just last month, we talked about an ambitious project called RootHide that strives to hide your rootless jailbreaks from apps that want nothing more than to know that you’re jailbroken. In other words, it’s a jailbreak bypass that lets you use those annoying apps that refuse to work when you’re in a jailbroken state.
One of the problems that plagues iPhone and iPad jailbreaks is that App Store apps can implement what’s known as jailbreak detection and then refuse to open or work properly until you unjailbreak your device. For this reason, jailbreak detection bypasses are a hot commodity among jailbreakers, but they tend to be hit or miss, depending on who you ask.
Do you value enhanced multitasking features on your mobile devices? If so, then you might be excited to learn that MilkyWay4-rootless jailbreak tweak by akusio is now available and supports the latest rootless jailbreaks such as Dopamine and palera1n on iOS & iPadOS 15.x.
One of the most popular jailbreak tweaks for Control Center that we ever showed our readers was BigSurCenter by iOS developer nicho1asdev. Now, two years later, the tweak has been updated to take advantage of the latest rootless jailbreaks for iOS & iPadOS 15 and 16.
