    [Tutorial] How to completely and cleanly restore to same version w/ sanity check.

    Posted: 29 Jan 2021 01:33 PM PST

    Due to the recent increase in posts asking how to remove their jailbreak and/or start fresh, I figured I'd write up a short and sweet guide detailing the most comprehensive restore process available to jailbroken users. The Succession restore process is effectively equal to an iTunes DFU restore with the exception of apples signing server.\1]) This is extremely useful for those of you experiencing issues with jailbreak detection, those who want to sell an iOS device on a currently jailbreakable firmware, and those like me with a broken brain that need the clean iOS feeling every now and then.

    The only caveats are as follows;

    1. You need to be currently jailbroken or able to jailbreak. This won't help those of you with a boot looped or softbricked device sorry ;\;).
    2. All data will be erased, you must backup everything you want to keep.
    3. This method, while extremely simple to execute, has some hands-on parts. It's possible for you to soft brick your device if you don't pay attention to what you're doing.

    ---

    Preparation

    1. To begin the process first download Succession from the BigBoss repo. Alternatively, you could download the deb from Samgisaninja's github, however, you must ensure rsync is installed.

    2. (Optional) Source the .ipsw file for your device yourself using ipsw.me. When you get to the download page you can either download a copy somewhere or use the direct link with wget or curl.

    • If downloading with wget, open terminal/ssh shell and navigate to /var/mobile/Media/Succession/ and use this command;

    cd /var/mobile/Media/Succession/ wget -O ipsw.ipsw <paste-link-here> 
    1. Due to some reported issues with Succession hanging while attaching the fs\2]), it's recommended to follow these steps before launching the restore process\3]).
    • Ensure Succession is not running then launch terminal or ssh shell and cd to root, then enter these commands as root/su.

    cd / chown root:wheel /Applications/SuccessionRestore.app/SuccessionRestore chmod 6755 /Applications/SuccessionRestore.app/SuccessionRestore 
    • If you sourced the IPSW yourself, it can't hurt to run these commands as well;

    cd /var/mobile/Media/Succession/ chown root:wheel ipsw.ipsw chmod 6755 ipsw.ipsw 

    ---

    Sanity Check

    • Make sure the IPSW file is the exact same version as that you are restoring from. Best way to do this is to launch Settings and under General > About tap the Software Version cell and it should display the build number.
      • ie: 13.7 (17H35) for my iPhone X on iOS 13.7
    • Make sure you have adequate battery or your device is charging when starting the restore process.
    • Be prepared to give your device some privacy during the restore, it takes a good minute. When it's finished you'll be greeted with the Hello/Setup screen.
    • Backup your sources and packages if you want to re-jailbreak and setup as new. Sources and packages can be exported via Sileo. For Substrate you can locate your sources here; /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cydia.list. You can also use Flame to export this, or use System Info to copy the list of packages to a text file.
    • Backup anything you might want to save or migrate to the new install, for me this usually includes;
      • DCIM/Camera Roll
      • Google Authenticator accounts
      • Homescreen layout/widget layout
      • Anything saved locally on the device (ie: Documents, Downloads, SHSH files)
      • Any manual system tweaks (ie: custom Wallpapers, any edited plist files, etc...)

    ---

    Restore

    After you have ensured you have the correct files in place, permissions for Succession are correct (step 3 in Preparation), and everything you want to save is backed up, you're ready to restore the device.

    1. Make sure Succession isn't running in the background, kill it from app switcher if it is.

    2. Open terminal or ssh and paste these commands as root.

      cd / ./Applications/SuccessionRestore.app/SuccessionRestore

    3. After entering that command nothing will appear to happen, that's normal, just close terminal and open the Succession app.

    4. Press the button to download clean filesystem, you should receive a notification about an ipsw file being found.

    5. Restore the device, should take a few mins and will leave you with an essentially stock setup.

    Note: Succession may warn you about your iOS version being too new, this can be ignored. Succession should work on all iOS versions from iOS 10 and up. I haven't tested on iOS 14 but I have used Succession on iOS 13.7 multiple times with absolutely no issues.

    Hopefully this helped someone, if anything in the above post is incorrect or unnecessary please let me know and I will update it accordingly.

    [News] New AltStore update will be released soon

    Posted: 29 Jan 2021 11:08 PM PST

    [Free Release] WebMessage - Your messages, on every device.

    Posted: 29 Jan 2021 02:33 AM PST

    Screenshots

    The day is finally here. WebMessage's first release is now available on my personal repo (https://sgtaziz.github.io/repo)

    It is also open-sourced!

    Warnings

    • This package requires the client installed on your computer to work! Without it, this package will be useless. The client is also open-sourced.
    • This package has not been tested against iOS 12 fully. It is still in its early stages.

    Description

    WebMessage is a tweak exposing a REST API (and a WebSocket) from your phone, allowing for SMS and iMessage functionality. To work, the client used and the phone must be on the same network. Alternatively, tunneling can also be used.

    The current features are as follows:

    • Real-time sending and receiving of messages
    • Sending attachments from your computer without needing to transfer it to your phone
    • Native notifications
    • SSL encryption using your own privately generated certificate with a random passphrase
    • Password-protected
    • Always-running daemon
    • Ability to download all attachments through client

    More features are planned in the future, such as reactions, read receipts, and more. If you have any bugs/issues to report, or even contributions to make, please do so through GitHub.

    If you would like to support my work, you can donate using this link.

    P.S. You can find more details from my [Upcoming] post.

    [Paid Release] Backtrix: Backtap tweak for ios 13

    Posted: 29 Jan 2021 06:17 AM PST

    [Paid Release] Backtrix: Backtap tweak for ios 13

    Backtrix ports the famous backtap feature introduced in ios 14 for jailbroken ios 13 devices. For those who are not familiar with it, backtap is an accessibility feature of ios 14 which allows you to double or triple tap on the back of your iPhone to perform certain actions. Backtrix analyses motion data from your device sensors like accelerometer, gyroscope, proximity sensor and uses machine learning to determine whether there was a double or triple tap.

    Backtrix running on iPhone XS

    The classical question that you all must be asking: "How much battery drain will this cause?"

    Backtrix uses low level apis to ensure efficient detection with minimal impact on battery life. It consumes on average approximately 4-8% of cpu time for most devices. It smartly detects whether the device is handheld or not so that it can pause the analysis of the sensors data.

    Below is the energy consumption graph while the gesture detection is running on iPhone X. The tweak will consume around 10-15% battery in a 24 hours usage.

    Note: For A9/A10 devices (iPhone 6s/7/SE 1), the machine learning processing will be done on CPU because unlike A11+ devices, they do not have a neural engine hardware chip which allows to run neural networks with high efficiency at low power. This will cause the average CPU usage to be around 15-20% for these devices and hence will have a bigger impact on battery life.

    https://preview.redd.it/01quc5ux3ae61.png?width=2870&format=png&auto=webp&s=8b871d9f8493978da7915fe828d437e34d0854ad

    Native backtap is quite limited in the actions that it can perform but Backtrix is a lot more powerful in events handling. Apart from the standard actions like opening notifications centre, app switcher, changing volume, it offers notable actions like:

    -Launch an app of your choice

    -Toggle flashlight

    -Toggle dark mode

    -Toggle low power mode

    -Toggle do not disturb

    -Toggle nightshift

    -Play/Pause audio

    -Next track

    -Previous track

    -Run any shortcut

    This sounds cool but what if i want to trigger my own action like running a script or executing a tweak action? Well fear not, Backtrix got you covered!! The most famous event handling tweak for decades has been Activator and many tweaks including my own tweak Translomatic have provided custom activator actions. Backtrix supports activator natively, meaning that you can launch all of your favourite activator actions by simply double/triple tapping on the back of your phone!! It can forward its event to Activator and hence all of those existing activator actions can be used with it. Simply assign the Backtrix event to the action of your choice in Activator settings.

    Below are some frequently asked questions:

    Can i use Backtrix on ios 11/12?

    No, it requires ios 13 and above.

    Will Backtrix run on ios 14?

    Native backtap only supports iPhone 8 and above on ios 14. But with Backtrix, you can use these gestures on your iPhone 6s/7/SE too. If you try to use Backtrix on devices which already supports native backtap, it won't work due to potential conflicts.

    What devices does it support?

    It requires iPhone 6s and above. In my testing i have found that the number of false triggers was more on pre iPhone X devices. Note that this does not mean that it won't detect taps on pre A11 devices, it just means that it works but these devices accelerometer have different frequencies and hence cause more signal noise which may produce these erroneous triggers. The tweak is not compatible with iPads.

    Will it work with a case on?

    Yes it does for most cases. But for military style cases (thick or rugged case), it won't.

    What is the success rate of the gestures?

    More than 85% of the gestures are successfully detected, but false detection can happen too. This is also the case with ios 14 native backtap and even Apple who invest thousands of dollars into research was not able to fully prevent this.

    Native backtap feels slow. Is it the same with Backtrix?

    Backtrix has 2 sensitivity setting: normal and high. The normal one might feel a bit slow but will result in less false triggers. High sensitivity runs the detector at a higher frequency but at the same time might create false/double triggers and have slightly higher consumption of battery. I suggest to try both for some days to see what suits you best.

    Can i use it on lock screen?

    No, the actions will not run on lockscreen due to security issues.

    Will it trigger accidental backtaps in my pocket?

    The tweak can make use of the proximity sensor to ignore any backtaps when the device is placed inside your pocket which is useful for people who put their phones in their pockets without locking it first. Do note that having the proximity sensor always on might impact battery life on older devices.

    Does the shortcuts run inline?

    No, it open shortcuts app and runs the shortcut.

    Is there a trial for it?

    Unfortunately no. But i understand this kind of tweak will have different results for everyone due to various models and cases. So you can try the tweak and if you are unsatisfied with it, you can request a refund from yourepo purchases page and it will be approved.

    Backtrix is available for $2.25 on my personal repo:

    foxfort.yourepo.com

    You can pay via paypal, credit card or Apple pay. I highly recommend using a modern package manager like Zebra/Sileo to do the purchase.

    Feel free to mail me at [foxfortmobile@gmail.com](mailto:foxfortmobile@gmail.com) or DM me on twitter u/foxfortmobile in case of any queries.

    [Discussion]The beautiful way to restore/migrate an iPhone thanks to jailbreak.

    Posted: 29 Jan 2021 05:57 AM PST

    Hi! I have on numerous occasions been able to restore my iPhone and even migrate from one to another thanks to jailbreak.

    I commonly use Filza to make a copy of my text messages (the SMS.db) to a location on the iPhone that I then access by plugging it in to my computer via USB. Sometimes I have even brought the entire Attachments folder with me to the new or restored device.- I know, I could just restore from a backup or even sync messages via iCloud. But I don't want to smear my backup data around to others' servers more than necessary.

    More apps, data and preferences could certainly be backed up and restored in this way.

    My personal experience is that I have, thanks to this precise manual backup method, been able to run iOS and jailbreak with great stability throughout the years. Having always started with a full wipe along with the iOS update or reset.

    Am I the only one that has this approach to backups and data managing thanks to jailbreak?

    I'm curious to hear your thoughts, methods and experiences.

    Please also suggest more nifty ways jailbreaking can be useful to data management and backup!

    [Question] Altstore crashing every time I open it when re-jailbreaking after my phone died

    Posted: 29 Jan 2021 07:54 PM PST

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is super weird. I've accidentally let my phone die dozens of times but all of the sudden I go to repeat the process of reinstalling Altstore and opening Unc0ver and both Altstore and Unc0ver crash every time. I tried a few roundabout ways of trying to install, with an old beta version of Altstore etc but literally nothing works.. I'm really frustrated because I have so many purchased tweaks and can't imagine going back to a vanilla phone. Thanks for your help guys.

    [Question] Connect ethernet devices to jailbroken iphone

    Posted: 29 Jan 2021 06:24 PM PST

    Long story short- I am running a jailbroken iphone 6 as a hotspot so I can put my laptop online to get unlimited 4G data (laptop connects to iphone via WiFi).

    Work gave me a VoIP phone I need to use to get calls from work, but it only has an ethernet port on it.

    Is there any way I could hook something up that would connect to my phone (either directly or via bluetooth or WiFi to the phone-as-a-hotspot) that would emulate an ethernet connection such that the work-provided VoIP phone would work?
