Hi, mologie could you make a ipa version for ios12 jailbreak? because there have no Cydia yet, we can't use deb to install, but we can install .ipa to self sign and install it.

Many thanks

Nope, not possible. I have updated the FAQ to cover your question, because it is asked often in this thread.

No, I know why you need to pack it with deb, but Do you know Rootless jailbreak, GeoFilzaA12,FilzaEscaped12.x .... ? They all are jailbreak apps and install via Cydia Impactor, Please take your time to check them.

Ah, I see. However, I'd rather not go into the direction of building temporary jailbreaks into NXBoot. Once a full jailbreak is released NXBoot should function on iOS 12 too.

iOS 12 rootlessJB3 users, For those of you who know what you are doing.. if you convert the .deb to an IPA and side load it, it works just fine with a combination of the rootlessJB3 as well as beta 27 of Uncover, to get the correct privileges. You just need to put everything in the right directory and be sure you are giving everything the correct permissions. If Mologie gives me permission i'll do up a proper tutorial.

Sure, go right ahead. I'm glad to hear it works on iOS 12 too. Keep in mind however NXBoot uses Apple's sandbox but adds exceptions for USB device access via an entitlements file. Depending on how uncover works, it might be that it disables the sandbox completely. If the sandbox is off completely then configuration files are written outside of the container, so users will have to deal with migrating their configuration once a full jailbreak is released.

rootlessJB+iSuperSU may do it.

It looks like unc0ver is now a full iOS 12 jailbreak. Do you have releasing a compatible version of NXBoot in the works? Currently NXBoot gives the following error when using it with unc0ver : Connection error. Could not create usb device plugin instance (e00002be)

There is now lightning to USB-C cables out there, removing the need to use the OTG adapter. I tried both and NXBoot currently only works if using the OTG adapter (and rootlessJB3).

It appears as if unc0ver does not correctly apply sandbox exceptions then. I unfortunately do not have a device ready to test with unc0ver.

An OTG adapter will to the best of my knowledge always be required, because the iPhone must act as USB host and can only do so with the adapter.

You may not know this, but unc0ver's developer (Pwn20wnd) is an update beast. At times, he would release dozens of updates in just a couple of weeks. I suggest you drop by his github so you guys can find a way into this.

I wish I was more tech savy but there's a threshold passed which I can't offer more food for thoughts.

But that saurik is do nothing for A12, so Even Pwn is good, but he never try to rewrite or rip from substrate...
So saurik was say jailbreak is dead, I agree, because he do nothing for it, and all jailbreak need his substrate, so He killed jailbreak

We are discussing iOS 12 jailbreak compatibility with NXBoot, not with A12 devices.

For now.. Not only A12 users, all 12.x users was f*** up by saruik and no more Cydia and Strastate.
So this project will close soon?

This project depends on neither Cydia nor Substrate. All it needs are proper sandbox patches, which I assume are not implemented to a degree in unc0ver that would make NXBoot work. I have not yet had the chance to look into making it compatible (or working with unc0ver's author to fix it on the jailbreak's end). A workaround was posted in this thread by @Klodeckel1990.

How about @Jakeashacks's rootlessJB3 or @coolstarorg's Electra?
Anyway thank for you work, we love your tool

I'm using unc0ver b50 and NXBoot works flawlessly. I also confirm that it works on b49 version.
My device is iPhone 6S running iOS 12.1

    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.

    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though

    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.
