If you’ve just used the Dopamine tool to jailbreak your A12-A15 device running iOS or iPadOS 15.0-15.4.1 or the palera1n-c tool for A9-A11 iOS & iPadOS 15.0-16.x devices, then it’s going to be very important that you don’t update your device’s software so that you maintain your jailbreak.
If you were previously using the XinaA15 jailbreak for arm64e devices running iOS or iPadOS 15.0-15.1.1, and you’ve thought about making the switch to the new rootless Dopamine jailbreak for arm64e devices running iOS or iPadOS 15.0-15.4.1, then you will be pleased to know that this will be a lot easier than you might think.
Most of the jailbreak community is starting to move to the rootless dynamic, and for users of rootful jailbreaks in the past, this may cause some growing pains for users of those jailbreak tweaks that haven’t yet been updated to support rootless.
The Havoc repository began accepting rootless jailbreak-supported packages in mid-March, with the expectation that current and future jailbreaks would be adopting the rootless dynamic. On Sunday, the Havoc repository made another announcement related to rootless jailbreaks.
More and more jailbreak tweaks have been adding support for the rootless jailbreaking dynamic ever since Fugu15 Max and palera1n-c made it evident that this would be the future of jailbreaking for iOS & iPadOS 15 and later.
Developer Lars Fröder (@opa334) took to Twitter Friday afternoon to announce the release of a seventh public beta of the Fugu15 Max jailbreak for arm64e devices (iPhone XS and later) running iOS & iPadOS 15.0-15.4.1.
As rootless becomes the norm in the modern world of jailbreaking, we’re seeing more and more of a shift toward supporting this new dynamic. We’ve seen multiple repositories pick up support for rootless packages, and now, yet another important change is making the crawl toward rootless: file manager apps.
If you’ve been following along in the jailbreak community recently, then you’d know that many of the major repositories that host jailbreak tweaks and other add-ons for pwned iPhones and iPads have been adding support for rootless packages, with the first two being Chariz and Havoc.
The first public beta of the Fugu15 Max jailbreak for arm64e devices (A12+) running iOS & iPadOS 15.0-15.4.1 made rounds this week after initially being leaked from a semi-private developer beta testing trial.
TrollStore developer @opa334 shared an interesting stream of Tweets this past weekend suggests substantial progress regarding the Fugu15 jailbreak tool for arm64e devices running iOS & iPadOS 15.0-15.4.1.
Following in the footsteps of the Havoc repository, which just this week began accepting rootless jailbreak-supported jailbreak tweaks and packages in addition to their non-rootless counterparts, the Chariz repository began doing the same Saturday afternoon.
With the vast majority of modern jailbreaks for iOS & iPadOS 15 and 16 being rootless, it should come as no surprise that tweak developers have started launching rootless versions of their tweaks with compatibility for the latest dynamic.
