The iDownloadBlog team remains everlastingly dedicated to following the latest projects in the iPhone and iPad hacking communities as it relates to jailbreaking and installing add-ons that Apple would never think of allowing in the App Store.
Nugget, the SparseRestore-based iPhone customization utility for macOS and Windows, picked up an additional update this week ahead of the New Year holiday, officially bringing it up to version 4.2.2.
In a rarely seen walk back on Tuesday, iOS security researcher and Dopamine jailbreak lead developer Lars Fröder (@opa334dev) released and then pulled an updated version of the Dopamine jailbreak tool in the form of version 2.3.
While perusing /r/jailbreak this past week, I happened upon a new and somewhat interesting release by Redditor /u/Smart-Ad-8635 called MySign that strives to be a convenient on-device sideloading platform for iPhones and iPads.
While some weeks are slower than others when it comes to news spouting from the iPhone hacking and jailbreaking communities, the fact remains that the iDownloadBlog team keeps close tabs on the latest developments that could have an impact on our readers.
One of my biggest qualms with the Lock Screen on any iPhone or iPad is the fact that the number pad for passcode entry always has the same layout. This means that even if someone who’s glancing over your shoulder doesn’t know exactly what numbers you’re tapping on, they can instead easily memorize the positions of the number buttons you tap on to gain access to your device.

Music listeners who primarily use the Spotify application to stream their favorite songs, and who also have a jailbroken device at their disposal, have a strong potential to be able to enjoy a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called CanvasSync by iOS developer pkgFiles.
The iDownloadBlog team monitors for new developments in the iPhone jailbreak community and reports what we find all week long, but if you might’ve missed some of that important knowledge from this past week, then you’ve come to the right place because this will be a dedicated roundup piece aimed at helping you get caught up.
Apple on Wednesday tweaked its software update servers by unsigning iOS & iPadOS 18.1.1, a move that now causes said servers to deny user requests to install these firmware versions on iPhones and iPads.
We previously showed you how you can change the root user password on your jailbroken handset with an on-device terminal app like NewTerm.

Fortunately, we will share the updated process with you in today’s tutorial.
Popular game emulator app Delta by iOS developer Riley Testut and company has received an important update on Tuesday that officially brings it up to version 1.6.5.
