int

[hasty ruin]

but BOOL can also be a signed char

[cloud yacht]

Have some code chatGPT wrote for me ```objc
@interface🌺🍎:👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
@property(👀,💪)👩‍💼*💼;
@end
@implementation🌺🍎

• (void)🍏🍏🍏:(🍎*)🍎 {
  [self.💼🌸🌸🌸:🍎];
  }
  @end

[hasty ruin]

BOOL definition in objc.h

#if (TARGET_OS_IPHONE && __LP64__)  ||  TARGET_OS_WATCH
#define OBJC_BOOL_IS_BOOL 1
typedef bool BOOL;
#else
#define OBJC_BOOL_IS_CHAR 1
typedef signed char BOOL; 
// BOOL is explicitly signed so @encode(BOOL) == "c" rather than "C" 
// even if -funsigned-char is used.
#endif

#define YES ((BOOL)1)
#define NO  ((BOOL)0)```

[radiant idol]

but why

[hasty ruin]

don't forget Boolean!

[radiant idol]

no.

[hasty ruin]

_Bool too

[hasty ruin]

bool
Introduced to standard C in the C99 spec. (The C99 standard was published in 1999, but it took some years after that to become widespread in use.) Prior to that, "plain" C had no built-in Boolean type, so libraries that built on top of C often defined their own. (And often continued using their own types for source/binary compatibility even after they embraced C99 compilers.)

Use this if you're writing ISO C and aren't working in the context of higher level libraries with their own Boolean types.

Boolean
Defined by Carbon (the early-OSX-days compatibility bridge from the even older Mac Toolbox), which you might still see in some projects (due to transitive #include of headers that are really only around for compatibility with really old source code).

Don't use this.

BOOL
Defined by ObjC because NeXTSTEP needed its own Boolean type back in 1988. (The oldest objc.h I can find on my office bookshelf dates to 1992 and includes a definition of BOOL.)

ObjC BOOL has often been defined as typedef signed char, meaning that it can hold more values than just YES (1) and NO (0). That can be a problem if you aren't careful. (Why even do that? Because if a type is one bit wide, it's hard to pack into well-aligned memory for good performance.)

However, in iOS 64-bit (including tvOS) and watchOS, the compiler defines OBJC_BOOL_IS_BOOL, which makes ObjC BOOL just an alias for C99 bool. That means the language/compiler ensures that nonzero values are always stored as 1, so you don't have the issues that come from typedef signed char BOOL. (Still gotta worry about them on macOS or 32-bit iOS, though.)

TLDR
If you're working in ObjC with ObjC frameworks (like Cocoa, UIKit, etc), you should use BOOL for consistency with the APIs you're interacting with. (Besides, YES and NO are much louder than true and false, and it's good to be emphatic when you're talking about absolute truth, right?)

just wrote that entirely by myself

boolean_t

[radiant idol]

im still using true and false

[vale oxide]

its much louder

[radiant idol]

copium

[vale oxide]

…

[hasty ruin]

L

[topaz yew]

Stop nightwindi

[hasty ruin]

if you wanna be loud, why not TRUE and FALSE

wtf its half 3 already

i gotta stop talking about booleans and go to bed

gotta be up in 3h

[vale oxide]

you dumbass

go to bed

[hasty ruin]

??

no longer helping you

[vale oxide]

😭

[radiant idol]

#define TRUE true

[gentle grove]

@hasty ruin stop watching gorn and go to bed

[hasty ruin]

no

i can't stop it

[vale oxide]

the brain needs sleep

weekend soon

then you can pull an all nighter with gorn

[cloud yacht]

you have objevitce c headers on your office bookshelf?

[hasty ruin]

no

i memorised them

[cloud yacht]

doubt

[hasty ruin]

i took it off after writing

it bypasses dopamine's hook somehow

[vale oxide]

ok so how do i respring then

[hasty ruin]

#import <rootless.h>
#import <spawn.h>

then

pid_t pid;
const char* args[] = {"sbreload", NULL, NULL};
posix_spawn(&pid, ROOT_PATH("/usr/bin/sbreload"), NULL, NULL, (char* const*)args, NULL);```

[vale oxide]

and xina?

[hasty ruin]

should be fine

think ROOT_PATH checks if the path exists, else prefixes /var/jb

[vale oxide]

Preferences will be fun to figure out

[naive kraken]

no

it uses preprocessor macro

[hasty ruin]

Did these change?

[naive kraken]

Do not use these

Yes they did https://github.com/theos/headers/blob/9f00c9663aff892b512f87666dbfbf8fe4943e84/rootless.h

[hasty ruin]

Ah

new GitHub ui sucks bruh

had to view raw bc they seemingly broke mobile support

[vale oxide]

hi opa

do you use swift or obj-c

[naive kraken]

obj-c

[lime pivot]

there's also my favorite obnoxious bool type, CFBoolean

with the very easy to type kCFBooleanTrue and kCFBooleanFalse

[hasty ruin]

I love cf but also hate it

[lime pivot]

the purpose of CF is just weird these days

back then you could claim it was handy because it was a pretty fast and comprehensive C implementation of the base types you need

now it's like, it's there because it has to be there

I mean it's had ObjC in it since iOS 6, which is when NSObject was moved from Foundation to libobjc, so it's barely just C any more

I do wonder how much of ObjC would still exist if C++ came first

because objc does predate C++ by a few years

[naive kraken]

my favorite part of it is that kCFBooleanTrue and NSNumber 1 are not equivalent

[cloud yacht]

Man objective C is a lovely language

[lime pivot]

and people say javascript is crazy

objc was the OG crazy language

[cloud yacht]

Oh I just must be crazy

uses js and objc

[graceful gate]

@ objc

[cloud yacht]

My code compiles so therefore it must be good

[hasty ruin]

??

[cloud yacht]

totally doesn't crash springboard

[lime pivot]

the compiler doesn't have very high standards bro

[cloud yacht]

Yeah but its standards are higher than mine

[hasty ruin]

I’m gonna sleep before capt finishes typing so he has to wait 2 hours for a reply

[cloud yacht]

sleep for 2 hours

RIP you

#import spawn.h>

:trol

[lime pivot]

we do a little :trol ing

[cloud yacht]

[timid furnace]

why aren't we just using that kirb post

    SBSRelaunchAction* restartAction = [SBSRelaunchAction actionWithReason:@"RestartRenderServer" options:SBSRelaunchActionOptionsFadeToBlackTransition targetURL:relaunchURL];
    [[FBSSystemService sharedService] sendActions:[NSSet setWithObject:restartAction] withResult:nil];
``` or something like that

[vale oxide]

why confuse me

[timid furnace]

man

wtf is the difference

man

so which one should i actually use

man

[faint timber]

if you killall spring or back in 2023 you need to be banned from dev

[cloud yacht]

we have a tool for that too

but i think it might be not recommnended now maybe

[ocean raptor]

uicache -r?

[cloud yacht]

yeah smth like that

[ocean raptor]

That's literally how sbreload works https://github.com/ProcursusTeam/uikittools-ng/blob/main/sbreload.m#L68

Wait

sbreload sucks

wtf is this

So if sending the sbreload thing doesn't give springboard or backboard a new pid within 2 seconds it will launchctl stop them

I hate this

Why not launchctl restart or whatever it's called

Also ldrestart sucks

[cloud yacht]

oh yeah that was the one i was thinking of

[tepid olive]

thanks you, it doesnt crash anymore but it also doesnt hook sadly

[tepid olive]

tf you talking about, sbreload literally calls RestartRenderServer

https://github.com/ProcursusTeam/uikittools-ng/blob/main/sbreload.m#L68-L75

it seems to be using slightly different args though

not sure if that matters

[primal perch]

capt wrong

[lime pivot]

not supported in some old build of launchctl or something?

stop will cause a KeepAlive daemon to immediately restart so it’s fine

[ocean raptor]

launchctl ios 12-15 are all fairly identical

[lime pivot]

which springboard and backboardd are

because well, I don’t think you want a springboard crash bricking the phone till you force reboot

[ocean raptor]

asuser is in iOS 12 but not iOS 14 launchctl

And there were some minor xpc pipe changes

But otherwise

[lime pivot]

what’s the 14 one from?

[ocean raptor]

I had three sources

1. Leaks
2. Simulator
3. macOS

I think iOS 14 was a simulator

iOS 12 was a leak

[lime pivot]

that… seems like a bad idea

[ocean raptor]

Wdym

[tepid olive]

to hook functions using ellekit on jailed, its like this? void MSHookFunction(void *symbol, void *hook, void **old);

Discord deleted the pointer

wrap it in backticks

[tepid olive]

where are backticks on german keyboard

[wheat grotto]

It looks like the jwt token expires right away, even tho im setting expiresIn to 3600

console.log(process.env.JWT_EXPIRES)

        const token = jwt.sign({ email: user.Email }, process.env.SECRET_KEY, {
            expiresIn: process.env.JWT_EXPIRES,
        });

idk if signing the email is good or not but all i care about is that it works

Thats it.

[tepid olive]

Is this for ellekit too? Jailed ios
void MSHookFunction(void *symbol, void *hook, void **old);

yes

if it doesn’t work then you’re doing something wrong coz it works for me

are you on arm64e

ie A12 or higher

let me see

A14

[wheat grotto]

Im too stupid to understand how dotenv works. this is now fixed

[tepid olive]

does it automatically get the aslr slide

would this be correct as an exampleMSHookFunction((void *)getRealOffset(0x12345678), (void *)newFunction, (void **)&oldFunction);

[vale oxide]

this i cool

[tepid olive]

i forgot 2 brackets didnt i?

[faint timber]

where tf is getRealOffset from

[tepid olive]

to get aslr slide

[faint timber]

no shit

but where did it come from

[tepid olive]

let me see

[faint timber]

you really should be writing your own code

otherwise you don't learn shit

[tepid olive]

its from here https://github.com/MJx0/KittyMemory

[faint timber]

smh

write your own code please

[tepid olive]

ok

one second

[tepid olive]

{
    uint32_t image_count = _dyld_image_count();

    for (uint32_t i = 0; i < image_count; i++)
    {
        const char *image_name = _dyld_get_image_name(i);
        if(strstr(image_name, "UnityFramework"))
        {
            return _dyld_get_image_vmaddr_slide(i) + offset;
        }
    }

    return _dyld_get_image_vmaddr_slide(0) + offset;
}

[faint timber]

that looks wrong

[tepid olive]

why

[faint timber]

nevermind I missed the return in the loop

pretty cool

[tepid olive]

idk it doesnt hook

no crash, just doesnt hook.

its for arm64 right

[faint timber]

its bad logic

you really should look for image slide on request, not default

because it will fall back to executable slide

thats just bad logic

[tepid olive]

what do you mean with request

It only looks for it when doing getrealoffsrt

[faint timber]

you use two functions, or you tell said function the behavior

parameters?

[tepid olive]

?

Thats the entire getrealoofset

with parameters

[faint timber]

hahaa

this was supposed to be your code

so you can change it as you please

add more parameters

[tepid olive]

ok

[faint timber]

remove them

a suggestion is to have two slide functions

one for images, the other for executable 0

the param 2 can be the image name that get's strstr'ed

[tepid olive]

uint64_t ownGetRealOffset(uint64_t offset, str image)
{
    uint32_t image_count = _dyld_image_count();

    for (uint32_t i = 0; i < image_count; i++)
    {
        const char *image_name = _dyld_get_image_name(i);
        if(strstr(image_name, image))
        {
            return _dyld_get_image_vmaddr_slide(i) + offset;
        }
    }

    return _dyld_get_image_vmaddr_slide(0) + offset;
}

wait not str

string

rivht

Std::string?

i think it would be just char * since you're passing it to strstr

ok

[tepid olive]

it compiled is that what you meant

[faint timber]

two functions, remove the for loop and the param 2 in the second one

[tepid olive]

so remove image in if?

[faint timber]

for the second function

do you understand you are making one for hardcode 0 and one for image slide?

[tepid olive]

no, i only need image slide tho

[faint timber]

Then return 0 if image isn’t found then fail fatal so you know what went wrong

Transparency is key

[tepid olive]

how do i do fatalError

[grave sparrow]

no

[tepid olive]

the offset works when using another hooking method

i can test it on my other phone

but maybe i missed something in the makefile

Maybe it uses the original substrate instead of ellekit

[tepid olive]

? there’s no other available hooking method

i can’t automatically add the slide when i don’t know what module your symbol is in

[tepid olive]

theres the original mshookfunction?

which one

[tepid olive]

it literally doesn’t work on iOS jailed, plus it doesn’t add the slide automatically

[tepid olive]

i have it included tho

[tepid olive]

Good then

It should work

I tested this many times

here sweetie i just tested it for you on A13

hope ur happy

ok one second ill post the hook and the function

int(*oldScore)(void *instance);
int newScore(void *instance) {
    if(score) {
        return -300;
    }
    return oldScore(instance);
}

MSHookFunction(((void *)ownGetRealOffset(0x2DCAEB8, "UnityFramework")), (void *)newScore, (void **)&oldScore);

i put the mshookfunction in a function which gets called after app start

uint64_t ownGetRealOffset(uint64_t offset, char *image)
{
    uint32_t image_count = _dyld_image_count();

    for (uint32_t i = 0; i < image_count; i++)
    {
        const char *image_name = _dyld_get_image_name(i);
        if(strstr(image_name, image))
        {
            return _dyld_get_image_vmaddr_slide(i) + offset;
        }
    }
    return _dyld_get_image_vmaddr_slide(0) + offset;
}

its the .framework

no, i tried another function from soemone else too. That one worked for me on jailbroken and on jailed using the other hook function

but not with this hook

why are you adding substrate

?

yes i use sideloadly

what

he probably didn’t even include ellekit inside 💀

💀

[tepid olive]

i did

Azule?

you can use export ipa in sideloadly, remove substrate and add ellekit and then sideload it

ok

but then ellekit has to be resigned

yes

does trollstore work

So,
1.Inject my tweak and Ellekit
2.Export eithout substrate ticked
3.sign with that website
4.sideload with trollstore?

are u sure

[harsh junco]

fr

[timid furnace]

yes

same

[tepid olive]

So not inject ellekit.dylib in sideloadly? And where do i get ellekit files

i got the dylib

is that all

one for arm64 one for arm right

i only got ellekit.dylib

[timid furnace]

there is no stub dylib

well fuck you

[tepid olive]

so delete cydiasubstrate.framework folder

[timid furnace]

but yea you only need to worry about ellekit.dylib

also capt make sure you help them with rpath

with their tweak's LCs?

[tepid olive]

and then paste ellekit inside

ok

[timid furnace]

and ellekit.dylib's install name?

alr

[tepid olive]

libellekit.dylib

[timid furnace]

wrong as in "there should be more than one" or "i don't like this approach"

no this has been a thing forever

libsubstrate has been a symlink to ellekit for a long time

and you don't need libinjector and such

oh

bruh

i do

i handle the packaging stuff

[tepid olive]

do i need to put something in the fields

[timid furnace]

sure but the tweak's load commands, you should change @rpath/CydiaSubstrate.framework/CydiaSubstrate to @rpath/libellekit.dylib right

[tepid olive]

new app id, app display name, app version, app short version

[timid furnace]

ngl its probably easier to just replace the CydiaSubstrate file with the ellekit dylib

smh

ok

wait

frameworks dir or libraries dir

idk if the latter exists in app bundles

ok ig we'll figure it out

@tepid olive ping me when you are alive again

[tepid olive]

ok

[timid furnace]

ok so what are you up to so far

exporting the app from sideloadly?

[tepid olive]

install_name_tool -change old new?

[tepid olive]

yes

[timid furnace]

ok yea make sure you don't modify any of the info.plist fields

ok

so rename the .ipa to .zip

unzip the app

[tepid olive]

i did

[timid furnace]

you should see a Frameworks/CydiaSubstrate.framework directory

delete CydiaSubstrate.framework

[tepid olive]

yes

[timid furnace]

copy libellekit.dylib or whatever it's named into the Frameworks directory

[tepid olive]

yes

[timid furnace]

then look for MyTweak.dylib

tell me where you find it

[tepid olive]

In framework folde

[timid furnace]

ok

we're gonna change it from looking for substrate to looking for ellekit

in a terminal

run otool -L dragMyTweak.dylibhere

show me the output

[tepid olive]

idk

[timid furnace]

its probably from -Lellekit

[tepid olive]

Yes

[timid furnace]

ok um

that's gonna be a problem

[tepid olive]

ok do i need to remove -lellekit

[timid furnace]

yes

[tepid olive]

ok

one sec

[timid furnace]

ok

ellekit is gone

good

now we're gonna change substrate to ellekit

it's named libellekit.dylib right

[tepid olive]

yes

[timid furnace]

ok

install_name_tool -change "@executable_path/Frameworks/CydiaSubstrate.framework/CydiaSubstrate" "@executable_path/Frameworks/libellekit.dylib" dragMyTweak.dylibhere

it's gonna complain about code signature, ignore it

that's what iOS app signer is for

after this drag in libellekit.dylib into the Frameworks folder

[tepid olive]

is it bad if i did this before already

[timid furnace]

no

[tepid olive]

Ok i did that

[timid furnace]

ok

now rezip the ipa

you know how to do this right

[tepid olive]

after otool again

[timid furnace]

looks good

[tepid olive]

yes

[timid furnace]

ok

do it

then sign it with ios app signer and sideload it

[tepid olive]

Ok

[tepid olive]

if i ever change my tweak, do i need to just replace the tweak dylib in the frameworks folder and then use app signer again?

[vale oxide]

x = [appUserDefaults objectForKey:@"slidex"] ? [[appUserDefaults objectForKey:@"slidex"] int] : 0;

[timid furnace]

pretty much

well

you need to replace the tweak dylib

do install_name_tool again

[timid furnace]

copy ellekit

and then resign

[tepid olive]

thanks, ill see if it works after downloading

[timid furnace]

you get an NSObject from objectForKey

also i'm pretty sure the method isn't just called "int"

it's probably intValue or something

[vale oxide]

im trying to get a number from a slider in preference loader

[tepid olive]

copying ellekit? Why? If its already there

[timid furnace]

if you need to update it or if you update the app

[timid furnace]

cast the NSObject to i guess a NSNumber

then call intValue on it

man

[honest star]

ktool is being very annoying. I use the command ktool dump --headers --out RandomHeaders some_random_binary but I just get a whooole lot of errors saying ERROR - ktool.objc:L#678:Class:from_image() - Loading a class failed Anyone else ran into this? Just tryna dump iOS app headers.

[timid furnace]

what is the binary from

[honest star]

SoundCloud

[timid furnace]

did you decrypt the ipa

[honest star]

Yeah I got it from anyipa

[vale oxide]

uhhhhhh

wat

[timid furnace]

ok

appUserDefaults is an NSUserDefaults instance right

[vale oxide]

yeah

[timid furnace]

oh they have an integerForKey method

ok

right now you're using objectForKey to get the value

this returns an id

well it's really a NSObject

but whatever

it doesn't specifically return an NSNumber

because from its perspective, it could be anything. you could have made that thing a text field for example

does this take decimals

your slider

[vale oxide]

no

whole numbers only

[timid furnace]

ok

so you have two options here:

1. cast it, and deal with it yourself if it's not the specific type you want
2. use integerForKey. this will return an NSInteger so you don't have to deal with casting it, however if the value was never set it will return 0

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsuserdefaults/1410095-objectforkey
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsuserdefaults/1407405-integerforkey
docs for both relevant functions

or you could use integerForKey

the default for integerForKey is 0

if you want to use a different default then yea integerForKey goes out the window and you can use this

although uh

?: is a thing?

you don't need an expression in between ? and :

?

damn

man wtf

no one told me this

is this objc specific

oh

it's a GNU extension

L

[tepid olive]

what does ios app signer do?

cuz it crashes

[timid furnace]

i uh

what

[tepid olive]

none there

Nothing there

i search the binary but only crash logs from yesterday

trollstore works right

i put it in app signer then downloaded on ipad and used trollstore

yes

629,5

maybe the signer changed something of the plist

[timid furnace]

is bobashare fast

[vale oxide]

IT WORKS

AHAHAHAAHHA

[tepid olive]

does the signer change anything from bundle id

[timid furnace]

only 30mb/s

sad

[vale oxide]

is it possible to make a slider that goes up by whole numbers

[tepid olive]

Thats what makes crash probably. The app has jailed detection but i found a bypass and the dev said to not change bundle id

[tepid olive]

tomorrow

[timid furnace]

why you bothering with signing if you're just gonna use trollstore

[vale oxide]

^^

im a tweak developer

i made a red rectangle

my greatest achivement

[celest quiver]

PSSegmentCells suck ass

[vale oxide]

you suck ass

[celest quiver]

mf continues using segment cells just cause he can’t cast to an int

@vale oxide are you not using a PSSliderCell

[tepid olive]

only VSCode debugger can run that sh1t not Python 3.11

bruh i wont get an answer

[tepid olive]

not true, but if you mismatch app id and bundle id that breaks some things

[sharp moth]

o ye

[tepid olive]

you can also create a wildcard cert that's just * using xcode if you don't need special entitlements

or on web portal you can do com.* etc

[sharp moth]

so i wanna run this code with Python 3.11 but only VSCode debugger runs it what do i do?

[tepid olive]

you're wrong

you can literally sideload with a mismatching bundle id, it just breaks some features that assume the app id is the same as the bundle id

i literally have apps with mismatched bundle id and app id sideloaded on ios 16.4 rn

that's how push notifications can work in sideloaded apps

also xcode can still create * provisioning profiles, though i have not actually tried using those yet

do i need to add ellekit anywhere in the makefile

maybe its bc of trollstore, do you know any other way to sign

help friends, I have connected rootless.h in kitty memory and I now have deb running on dopamine but the functions don't work

[vale oxide]

what is the best way to do color picking with prefrences?

[restive ether]

https://hbang.github.io/Alderis/

i guess if you only care about ios 14+ (or 15+? i can’t remember) you can use the uikit one also. the link has the differences between the two

[vale oxide]

15

yeah ima just use the uikit one

how do i make this return a color and how can i make it activate from preference loader?

actually the activate is the easy part

its the getting the data back i dont know about

Anyone know what’s wrong here?

[tepid olive]

So the app i inject my jailed tweak in crashes on opening and i get no logs, so ill say my steps here and i want to know if i did anything wrong.

1. build my tweak without adding or linking ellekit anywhere
2. inject the tweak into an ipa using sideloadly and export it
3. unzip the ipa and deleting cydiaSubstrate folder in frameworks
4. adding libellekit.dylib into frameworks folder
5. changing the path to cydia substrate of my tweak to ellekit using install_name_tool
6. re zip the payload folder
7. rename to ipa
8. put in ios app signer and dont fill any other field
9. install with trollstore
10. crash on opening

[wheat grotto]

The error messages indicate several issues in your code:

error: no known class method for selector 'coolColor': The UIColor class does not have a class method called coolColor. You might have intended to set the background color using the coolColor variable, but it is not defined properly.

error: unknown receiver 'appUserDefaults'; did you mean 'NSUserDefaults'?: There is a typo in the variable name. It should be NSUserDefaults instead of appUserDefaults.

error: no known class method for selector 'objectForKey:': The NSUserDefaults class does not have a class method called objectForKey:. You should use an instance of NSUserDefaults to access its methods.

error: initializer element is not a compile-time constant: You cannot assign a value returned by a method (in this case, objectForKey:) directly as an initializer. You should move the initialization of coolColorHex to a separate line.

error: non-static declaration of 'coolColor' follows static declaration: You have declared coolColor as both a static variable and as a local variable inside the loadPrefs() function. Remove the static declaration at the top of your code to avoid conflicts.

error: implicit declaration of function 'LCPParseColorString' is invalid in C99: The function LCPParseColorString is not recognized. Make sure you have included the necessary headers or imported the required libraries for this function.

Looking for help updating tweaks to rootless. didn't find much info on r/jailbreakdevelopers

I understand that i need to change some paths but i dont want to break anything for existing users.
Also, do i need a mac to compile for rootless or can i use Linux/WSL?

[faint timber]

You will need to build your own toolchain Apple llvm swift 5.8 branch probably or Mac

[tepid olive]

use macros from rootless.h like ROOT_PATH_NS() for it to work on both rootful and rootless

and yea if you want it to work on a12+ you should ideally use a mac with xcode 12 or newer, otherwise users may have to install "legacy arm64e support" for your tweak to work

(if you still want to support ios 13 and below, you should compile the rootful package with xcode 11.7)

[hollow scroll]

I have compiled for A12 on Linux before. is it broken now for rootless?

[faint timber]

New cpu subtype need new compiler

Oh and it’s closed source I think so yah you need a Mac regardless

Thanks Apple…

[tepid olive]

.

[hollow scroll]

Okay guess I'll get someone with a mac.
now just making sure, what paths would need a change?
I have @"/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/...." for preferences. is that also considered rootful?

[tepid olive]

yes that should also be changed, technically it can be written to on rootless but we're trying to move everything inside /var/jb to make removing the jb fully easier and not leaving any traces for jb detection

if you're using NSUserDefaults it will be automatically redirected for you but you can still wrap it in the macro just in case

[hollow scroll]

I am not using NSUserDefaults, i am just reading a .plist for the preferences

so /var/jb has a preference folder in it?

[tepid olive]

yes

[hollow scroll]

And what does this ROOT_PATH_NS() macro do exactly? how do i keep support for .plists that are in /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/ while also supporting rootless in var/jb?

[tepid olive]

compile for rootful:

make clean package FINALPACKAGE=1

compile for rootless:

make clean package FINALPACKAGE=1 THEOS_PACKAGE_SCHEME=rootless

in the former case THEOS_PACKAGE_INSTALL_PREFIX (which is used by the macros) expands to "", in the latter case it expands to "/var/jb"

[hollow scroll]

So there exists a /var/jb/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/?

sounds kind of wrong

[tepid olive]

yes, that's a thing

[hollow scroll]

okay as long as it works

thanks, it really helped 🙂

[tepid olive]

Can someone tell me if i did everything correctly

[hasty ruin]

I can compile if you’d like

[hollow scroll]

Thanks ❤️ I might have someone locally, if not I'll let you know 🙂

[hasty ruin]

[tepid olive]

you might also be able to use github actions ig, never tried

it's annoying how you can't depend on oldabi only for arm64e devices

because cy+cpu.arm64 is also satisfied on arm64e iirc

maybe oldabi could just install a dummy dylib on arm64? @tepid olive @timid furnace (actually not needed, see below)

or should we have procursus updated to be able to express these dependencies properly?
removing cy+cpu.arm64 entirely on arm64e may break a few packages, but doing it only for ios 15+ should minimize impact...
either that, or add a new package like cy+cpu.not-arm64e, but that is ugly

[hollow scroll]

well it sounds complicated
I dont even have a tweak dev environment because my PC died.. i just need to compile a couple of my tweaks since i have lots of people complaining

[tepid olive]

you basically have two choices right now:

• compile the rootless package on mac with xcode 12+
• tell your users to install "Legacy arm64e Support" on a12+ ios 15+ (right now you can't depend on it because it depends on cy+cpu.arm64e, unless you want to make a separate package for a12+ only)

[tepid olive]

thoughts? @marble perch @ocean raptor (nvm, resolved)

context: being able to express a dependency like cy+cpu.arm64 | oldabi, i.e. arm64 only, NOT arm64e
(the problem right now is that cy+cpu.arm64 is also installed on arm64e)

[naive kraken]

oldabi should just be a dylib that only has an arm64e slice then it won't get opened on arm64

[tepid olive]

oh is that enough

i thought you'd need a dummy arm64 slice or something

[naive kraken]

wait can't you just check for cy+cpu.arm64e

[tepid olive]

the problem is, there is no AND condition

well

there is but

not like that

[naive kraken]

I feel like this should be possible

[tepid olive]

there is AND, but there is no "if X, then Y"

that is normally done by negating it and doing an OR, but there is nothing to negate cy+cpu.arm64e since cy+cpu.arm64 also exists on arm64e

[naive kraken]

Depends: cy+cpu.arm64e?

[tepid olive]

no, the thing is we don't want it to only work on a12+

we want it to depend on oldabi only if it's arm64e

otherwise not depend on oldabi

[naive kraken]

oldABI should not exist

:/

we should just add the stuff needed to the dyld patch

I meant you can make oldABI depend on arm64e

[tepid olive]

but then a package that depends on oldabi just won't install on arm64

[naive kraken]

yeah

[tepid olive]

oldabi already depends on arm64e currently, that's the issue

i guess it could just not do that and then users would have a dummy few kilobyte package on arm64, not a huge deal

[hollow scroll]

if they install "Legacy arm64e Support" they can keep using the old .deb file?

[naive kraken]

no one should depend on oldABI tbh

[tepid olive]

well, ideally they should just compile with new abi, but since that's mac only it's a bit harder for some devs rn

[naive kraken]

It is possible on Linux too

[tepid olive]

they still need a new rootless deb, but you can compile that with linux and have them install legacy arm64e support for it to work

[naive kraken]

new ld64 is out

[tepid olive]

oh since when

[naive kraken]

a few weeks

I mean the source

[hollow scroll]

gotcha, then ill just compile on a mac. thanks

[naive kraken]

not sure if anyone has managed to compile it yet

[tepid olive]

is firmware-sbin the package that generates the cy+ packages?

oh no it's darwintools

i think there might be a way to depend on arm64-only, but not yet sure if it works on all arm64 devices

cy+cpu.arm64v8

[cloud yacht]

If you do have someone with a Mac that can compile it for you, you can build on Linux for testing, with oldabi/legacy arm64e support installed, then when your ready to make a production deb, compile on mac so oldabi isn't needed

[tepid olive]

linus confirmed all arm64 devices are arm64v8, and it seems like zbrateam/Firmware (which is used by darwintools) only generates two packages, cpu type and cpu subtype, so it should be a safe bet to use this

TL;DR: basically just do Depends: cy+cpu.arm64v8 | oldabi if you cannot compile your tweak on a mac

at least until someone compiles the new toolchain for linux

[tepid olive]

@hasty ruin could have done this and maybe your tweak wouldn't have been cracked

or idk, can't you just apply the transformations oldabi does to the dylib directly in a post-process step somehow?

i thought it was

[hasty ruin]

[ocean raptor]

I have a better idea

sudo apt purge oldabi

[timid furnace]

Ok but

OldABI isn't even an end all be all solution

The whitelist is there for a reason

Depending on it should be avoided as much as possible

[tepid olive]

figured out another solution in meantime so it's not needed ig

[tepid olive]

yea but if someone does use oldabi it's better to have a dependency on it than relying on users to install it

[timid furnace]

Frankly I like the shim idea more but it has its own issues

Ie. You'd need the ellekit repo added

[celest quiver]

is this how ill build for rootless?

i just added THEOS_PACKAGE_SCHEME=rootless and ROOTLESS=1

[tepid olive]

i wouldn't put it in your makefile, just do THEOS_PACKAGE_SCHEME=rootless when building the rootless version

though if your tweak is strictly rootless only it's fine

also ROOTLESS=1 does nothing now, not needed anymore

[celest quiver]

alr ty

[tepid olive]

also, if you do both rootful and rootless, then make sure to do make clean each time when switching between the two

e.g. make clean do and make clean do THEOS_PACKAGE_SCHEME=rootless

(do is just an alias for all package install basically)

[celest quiver]

also, is there a way to fix this? (I know 0 people are on iOS 13, but itd be nice to have A12+ support)

[tepid olive]

it is

i’ll explore the alternatives to the current oldabi technique today

[tepid olive]

yea but it depends on cy+cpu.arm64e
but i already figured out Depends: cy+cpu.arm64v8 | oldabi works in meantime, so no need to change it ig

though i do wonder if elu's firmware works that way too...

if it doesn't then the dep could be added only for the rootless package ig

[hasty ruin]

use an xcode 11 toolchain when building for rootful

[tepid olive]

install xcode 11.7 GM with xcodes, then copy just the toolchain from it

[hasty ruin]

xina has a built-in abi patch

[tepid olive]

one sec

cp -rc /Applications/Xcode-11.7.0-GM.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain "$THEOS/toolchain/Xcode.arm64eLegacy.xctoolchain"

# if you don't want xcode 11.7 to take up space:
rm -rf /Applications/Xcode-11.7.0-GM.app

build.sh:

#!/bin/sh -e

threads=$(sysctl -n hw.logicalcpu)

echo '[*] Building rootful package...'
PREFIX=$THEOS/toolchain/Xcode.arm64eLegacy.xctoolchain/usr/bin/ gmake -j"$threads" clean package FINALPACKAGE=1

echo

echo '[*] Building rootless package...'
gmake -j"$threads" clean package FINALPACKAGE=1 THEOS_PACKAGE_SCHEME=rootless

this assumes xcode 12 or above is selected as default with xcode-select

[timid furnace]

Can't you just use the flags

[celest quiver]

ty

btw is my SDK broken?

[naive kraken]

start by finding the PAC context of the check that fails and check for immediate references to that in dyld disassembly

because I can tell you with 99% certainity that dyld is supposed to sign these pointers

[tepid olive]

the no-ptrauth-abi-version stuff? yea, might work, but i decided to just use xcode 11.7 to be on the safe side since the toolchain alone is under 1GB

[naive kraken]

no the flag does not work

[tepid olive]

dhinak said it did, you said it didn't 🤷‍♀️

[timid furnace]

i tested it way back when

[tepid olive]

there seem to be bigger differences in the output of xcode 11.7 vs 14.x so i couldn't easily compare to see if they're equivalent

[timid furnace]

you need no-ptrauth-abi-version and the -Xlinker -ios_version_min flags

[tepid olive]

yea that

i also realized my logic for choosing the min version wasn't entirely right and was too lazy to fix it to always choose the optimal one, that's another reason i decided to just use xcode 11.7

i mean you can set it to 6.0 or whatever too, but you get a slightly more optimal binary if you set it higher ig

[timid furnace]

my min version is just going to be my deployment target

[tepid olive]

yea but you can also make it 12.0 if deployment target is lower

no arm64e for ios 11 and below so

that's basically what i did but i remember in some cases it was setting it too high, not sure exactly when

[timid furnace]

extra work if you build for both archs at the same time

which is my situation with luz

[tepid olive]

i think the old abi has a different section layout

it doesn't have __AUTH_CONST

[naive kraken]

start by changing the cpu subtype in both the fat header and the mach header then resign

and check if that makes it work

[tepid olive]

doing that rn

it does work on macOS

[naive kraken]

either way dyld is supposed to sign the pointers

If that works you can just patch the check in dyld

[timid furnace]

@tepid olive do you have access to Xcode 11.7 toolchain rn

[naive kraken]

if it doesn't then more work is needed

[tepid olive]

yes

[timid furnace]

if i send you test binary source can you build it with 11.7 tc

gonna compare the three

[tepid olive]

I wrote a patch tool to make plain iOS dylibs work on macOS

[tepid olive]

sure

So this is how I test OldABI now

[celest quiver]

also why does theos not have a patched sdk higher than 14.5

[tepid olive]

i remember the problem i ran into when diffing now actually, -Xlinker -ios-version-min was what was causing the generated binaries to be significantly different iirc... surprising because there was a difference even when i made it match the deployment target, which sounds like theos isn't passing it normally

[timid furnace]

idk

someone should PR one

[tepid olive]

https://github.com/xybp888/iOS-SDKs

@naive kraken bad news, it does not make the dylib work

[celest quiver]

awesome

[naive kraken]

hm damn

well there are two options: load dylib with RTLD_NO_LOAD or whatever and sign the pointers in data manually, only then make the constructor run or patch dyld to sign the pointers

[tepid olive]

how do i make it use 11.7 if i only have the toolchain from it and not the whole sysroot

i tried installing full 11.7 again but uh

xip: error: The archive “Xcode-11.7.0-GM+11E801a.xip” can’t be expanded because the selected volume doesn’t have enough free space.

[tepid olive]

lemme try something else

[timid furnace]

replace clang with path/to/clang?

[tepid olive]

true

[timid furnace]

not like the sdk matters

also use make emptydylib idk why plain make doesn't work

[tepid olive]

because the default target is the first one in the makefile

make all worked too

[timid furnace]

oh

trolling

[tepid olive]

what

clangclang: : error: error: unknown argument: '-fno-ptrauth-abi-version'

[timid furnace]

oh

i guess you can ditch that

[tepid olive]

the problem may be that it needs to be a linker arg

i think?

let me re-check

[timid furnace]

ld: unknown option: -fno-ptrauth-abi-version

so

it's def a compiler arg

[tepid olive]

nvm it was a compiler arg

i guess it makes sense that arg doesn't exist in xcode 11

[timid furnace]

-fno-ptrauth-abi-version controls the ABI of the object files, -Xlinker for ld

at least from what i've noticed

[tepid olive]

still getting these

[timid furnace]

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

static void __attribute__((constructor)) initialize(void) {  }

@interface Inject : NSObject
@end

@implementation Inject

}
@end

oh

it hates foundation

try ```c
#include <stdio.h>

static void attribute((constructor)) initialize(void) { printf("Hello, world!\n"); }

not like we're actually loading this, just analyzing it

if it still dies ig i'm downloading 11.7 (bc need older sdk ig)

[tepid olive]

clang: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-fno-ptrauth-abi-version' [-Wunused-command-line-argument]

[timid furnace]

yea that's fine

[tepid olive]

used theos 14.5 sdk

[timid furnace]

epic

ok time to compare

ok yea so the xcode 11 files are pretty much identical

as expected

as are the arm64 files

[tepid olive]

@timid furnace there's no difference between old and new abi if you don't include objc classes

afaik

[timid furnace]

@tepid olive is this original or this

[tepid olive]

it's this

[timid furnace]

alr

[timid furnace]

this is good enough right?

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import <dlfcn.h>
#import <objc/objc.h>

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#include <MacTypes.h>
// #import <Security/SecCode.h>

@interface Inject : NSObject
@end

@implementation Inject
+ (void)load {
    LOG(@"emptydylib init (ObjC load)");
}
@end

[tepid olive]

lgtm

[timid furnace]

alr

back to diffing

[tepid olive]

update: yea, elu doesn't have cy+cpu.arm64v8

so you'd only want that dependency for rootless if you plan to support ios 14 and below basically

[timid furnace]

Xcode 11 build vs "old ABI" Xcode 14 build:

• S_ATTR_NO_DEAD_STRIP added (who cares)
• LC_BUILD_VERSION diff (who cares)
• LINKEDIT got smaller?
• _OBJC_LABEL_CLASS_$ and _OBJC_LABEL_NONLAZY_CLASS_$ gone
• CFString ABI is different i think? 4010000000000004 vs C0156AE100000004
• __objc_data is different but i'm not exactly sure what

https://i.dhinak.net/ida64_2023-05-13_12-13-42.png

this is why __objc_data is different

wait no its not different

am i being lied to

yes

ok my conclusion is Xcode 14 "old ABI" and Xcode 11 build should be essentially the same

now lemme compare old ABI vs new ABI

• __init_offsets, __objc_methlist, and __objc_selrefs now exist
• __mod_init_func gone (replacement is __init_offsets)
• LC_DYLD_INFO_ONLY replaced with LC_DYLD_CHAINED_FIXUPS and LC_DYLD_EXPORTS_TRIE
• CFString ABI C0156AE100000004 vs C0156AE100000001 (doesn't seem like much of a difference)

is the new ABI just chained fixups

[tepid olive]

no

[tepid olive]

it seems that chained fixups are really important

[pale spear]

@tepid olive Accept friend request, i got hook working with UnityFramewokr

[tepid olive]

@timid furnace can you send the dylibs

[timid furnace]

dylibs: #development message
src: #development message

[unkempt ore]

anyone know why modifying the info.plist of apps by hooking -(NSDictionary *)infoDictionary in NSBundle doesn't work on Xina?

[tepid olive]

ok

[primal perch]

because xina

[unkempt ore]

yeah thats what I thought 😄 guess I'll just put a disclaimer out that this feature won't be supported on xina.

[primal perch]

[velvet path]

honestly I don't get the value in supporting XinaA15 at this point

like Xina already advised people to switch to Fugu15 Max when that was the thing (before it became Dopamine)

[timid furnace]

Muh rootful tweaks

[tepid olive]

yea i was surprised at opa PRing XINA_SUPPORT to theos now when sileo and zebra have already dropped support for it

[velvet path]

I mean Zebra never had support in the first place

it merely had its support plans cancelled

[gentle grove]

https://mastodon.social/@bagder/110357839309414990

[velvet path]

I mean true but yet here we are, tweak developers still wanting to support it because... why exactly?

[steady nest]

because people still use it

[velvet path]

when the jailbreak dev is literally recommending people to use something else, that's when that opinion and reasoning stops holding up

[steady nest]

people aren’t going to stop using stuff that works just because somebody else says so

you can tell them that dopamine is better all you want, but if half the tweaks they want to install don’t work in dopamine…

[wheat quarry]

Hi there, I was told that my repo and the theme packages on it aren't compatible with a rootless jailbreak so I wanted to update things to ensure they are. I searched this chat and best I could find was that I have to specify iphoneos-arm64 in the control file, but when I specifically make it Architecture: iphoneos-arm iphoneos-arm64 then dpkg gives me the warning:

dpkg-deb: warning: parsing file 'com.favware.lotusdarksettingsvpnicon/DEBIAN/control' near line 3 package 'com.favware.lotusdarksettingsvpnicon:iphoneos-arm iphoneos-arm64':
 'iphoneos-arm iphoneos-arm64' is not a valid architecture name in 'Architecture' field: character ' ' not allowed (only letters, digits and characters '-')
dpkg-deb: warning: ignoring 1 warning about the control file(s)
dpkg-deb: building package 'com.favware.lotusdarksettingsvpnicon' in 'com.favware.lotusdarksettingsvpnicon.deb'.

Can I just ignore this warning, or am I doing this all wrong?

I created a git branch where I am pushing my changes so this is the control file:
https://github.com/favna/cydia/blob/fix/rootless-support/source/com.favware.lotusdarksettingsvpnicon/DEBIAN/control#L3
And this is the Release file:
https://github.com/favna/cydia/blob/fix/rootless-support/Release#L6

[tepid olive]

@naive kraken https://gist.github.com/evelyneee/2fb8efade95a5282103b92307f66394b check this out

it all works

[timid furnace]

you cannot have multiple architectures in the control file (the repo is fine)

you can use all, however that is only usable in extremely rare cases

[naive kraken]

damn that's a lot lol

[timid furnace]

ie. when you aren't placing any files on the filesystem

[tepid olive]

iphoneos-arm iphoneos-arm64 goes in your Release file if you have your own repo, the rootless control file should have just iphoneos-arm64

also move files in the package from Library to var/jb/Library

if you're using theos, just leave everything as is, update to latest theos and use make clean package FINALPACKAGE=1 THEOS_PACKAGE_SCHEME=rootless

[naive kraken]

wait is this able to convert arm64 to arm64e too?

ah nvm

[wheat quarry]

So I cannot support both rootfull and rootless with the same package because of the different paths then?

[tepid olive]

correct

[hasty ruin]

make two different debs

Oh nvm you already got an answer

[tepid olive]

i mean technically you could have one deb with a postinst but that's cursed, don't do that

[wheat quarry]

part of me is tempted to just only do rootless but I have no statistics at all of how many people download the package especially considering they're 2 and 4 years old respectively

[tepid olive]

it's like 3 patches

[wheat quarry]

decided I'll support both and I'm revamping my repo to do so in a scripted way. It's been well overdue for a complete cleanup anyway.

[vale oxide]

can you help me now?

[hasty ruin]

[NSUserDefaults objectForKey:] is an instance method, not class
you need to call objectForKey on an instance of NSUserDefaults

and replace UIColor coolColor with UIColor *coolColor

[rain tree]

is there a way to make my iphone automatically authenticate the passphrase for a sshkey? hopefully that makes sense

[lime pivot]

you need to set up ssh-agent to run automatically when you start your shell, and on subsequent shell launches reconnect to your existing agent

if you use oh my zsh you can use the built in plugin for it http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21965611/ddg#21965667

if not there’s other solutions if you google ssh agent zsh or bash or whatever you use

[rain tree]

That's exactly what I was looking for, thankyou. Edit: I got it working with advice from the page linked above and the oh my zsh site. https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/tree/master/plugins/ssh-agent

[tepid olive]

@timid furnace Can you make some new arm64e dylibs with xc11 and xc14 with a class you define and a method inside it

I need to have the __objc_selrefs section, there's an issue with it

[tepid olive]

@wheat bobcat not sure if the ersatz source code on github is up to date with the rootless version, but can you please wrap your preference file path in ROOT_PATH_NS() so it goes to /var/jb on rootless? this avoids jailbreak detection being triggered by leftovers in /var after removing the jailbreak

basically #import <rootless.h> and do this:

settings = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:ROOT_PATH_NS_VAR([NSString stringWithFormat:@"/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/%@.plist", bundleIdentifier])];

[wheat bobcat]

it's not up to date

haven't pushed

it's /var/jb/mobile

[tepid olive]

well, i asked about the code bc i was gonna make a pr, but i actually installed it myself and it wrote to /var/mobile on rootless

[wheat bobcat]

wait

[tepid olive]

ROOTLESS doesn't exist anymore, it's THEOS_PACKAGE_SCHEME=rootless

you can just use the macro

[wheat bobcat]

yes it does

I defined it

make package ROOTLESS=1

[tepid olive]

that doesn't get exposed as a define i think, you'd need -DROOTLESS=1

or add it to CFLAGS in the ifeq

[wheat bobcat]

mb

[tepid olive]

you can also just use the rootless.h macro:

static NSString *settingsPath = ROOT_PATH_NS(@"/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/");

[wheat bobcat]

that checks if the directory exists

[tepid olive]

not anymore

it's a compile time check now

[wheat bobcat]

where is the updated code then

[tepid olive]

it's a part of theos

[wheat bobcat]

the documentation for this is so bad

ight

[tepid olive]

https://github.com/theos/headers/blob/master/rootless.h

[wheat bobcat]

anyways the only reason I updated it was bc someone said they'd pay me but they haven't 💀

[tepid olive]

lol

[wheat bobcat]

how do I build for rootless correctly then

[tepid olive]

you just do make clean package THEOS_PACKAGE_SCHEME=rootless (clean is important)

and use the macros

oh also, one more thing

you should use xcode 12+ for rootless for it to work on arm64e without oldabi package, but xcode 11 for rootful if you want to support ios 13 and below

linux can't build with new abi yet, though i heard new ld64 is out, just nobody compiled it yet

[wheat bobcat]

well I mean I'm not going to be publishing anything for < ios 13

I already said I wouldn't be updating for ios 15

[tepid olive]

ok then you can just use latest xcode for all if it's ios 14+ only

xcode 12 and up is good

[wheat bobcat]

yeah

alright thanks

ok should be fixed

[snow python]

Is there a version of flexing or related for rootless? Need to fix something and don’t know who hosts that package.

[hasty ruin]

https://github.com/PoomSmart/FLEXing/releases

[snow python]

There it is, thanks

Hmm maybe it’s not compatible with my iPad, not able to get it with long press status bar or three finger long press

[faint lion]

blockota

To block OTA updates, you can install a modified tvOS beta profile. This works even without a jailbreak. Note that the profile expires and will stop blocking updates on <t:1706677200:D> (<t:1706677200:R>). Check back after that date for a new profile.

You can re-enable updates by uninstalling this profile in Settings -> General -> Profiles & Device Management.

If you're jailbroken, you can also install the OTADisabler tweak instead, but note that it is harder to remove while unjailbroken.

Wait nope I didn’t have a substrate installed 🤦‍♂️

[tepid olive]

thanks a lot

[pine holly]

If i have a tweak that doesnt use images or anything that wouldnt comply with rootless, what do i have to do for it to work on dopamine?

do i just change "iphoneos-arm" to whatever the other is?

[hasty ruin]

add THEOS_PACKAGE_SCHEME=rootless to the end of your make command

run make clean first though

[pine holly]

Thats it? And bet thanks

[hasty ruin]

Yep

It’ll move everything into /var/jb and change the architecture

[pine holly]

Oh sick alright

Thansk

[vale oxide]

Is there any way to debug if nothing happens with my tweak

[primal perch]

no

absolutely 0 tooling

[vale oxide]

[pine holly]

what is the tweak

[vale oxide]

Mine

[pine holly]

thats not helpful 💀

[pine holly]

@hasty ruin sorry for the ping but you were the one helping so any ideas?

[hasty ruin]

is your theos up to date

make update-theos

[pine holly]

Lemme check

[hasty ruin]

cd to your theos folder

git stash

cd back to tweak

make update-theos

[pine holly]

lmk if you need the top part of the error

[hasty ruin]

what did git stash output

[tepid olive]

try

pushd $THEOS/vendor
git stash
popd
make update-theos

[pine holly]

nvm problem solved

git submodule deinit -f --all && git submodule update --init
inside $THEOS fixed issues

[pine holly]

Thanks for the help both of you!

[tepid olive]

he looks like someone from a specific clan

[celest star]

Does anyone know how we can install Substitute in rootless env?

[snow python]

Is there a rootless frida build out there

Found it

Its on miticollos repo

[tepid olive]

you can't

use ellekit

What are CFlags and CCFlags and what does fobj-arc do and whag does fvisibilty do

[tepid olive]

will ellekit not work when substrate is included already?

[tepid olive]

yea don't have both, just one or the other

[tepid olive]

why would you want both

[tepid olive]

idk

just use ellekit, it provides substrate compatibility

[tepid olive]

im trying

It no worky

[tepid olive]

do i need to do include <substrate.h>

or not if use ellekit

probably, the readme says to use it

i never tried using ellekit jailed myself yet

[tepid olive]

my tweak makes the app crash and it tells me that it tries to load cydia substrate (which isnt in the frameworks folder). Why does it try to load that

also the readme says nothing

[celest star]

Thank you!

[tepid olive]

Do i need to include libhooker.h

not if you aren't calling libhooker methods

[celest star]

@tepid olive Hi, may I ask a question? IOHIDEventSystemClientDispatchEvent works with rootful palera1n, but doesn't work with rootless, do you have any idea? Very appreciate it.

[tepid olive]

hmm, not familiar with that

i don't see why it wouldn't work, doesn't even seem related to hooking or rootfs stuff from what i can see

[tepid olive]

I want to use mshook but it crashes app

[celest star]

It's a private API for sending touch events to the system, I can see it's sending in SpringBoard, but no any effect. But that logic works in rootful env.

I don't know what difference between rootful and rootless causes that

[tepid olive]

not sure, what if you install ellekit instead of substitute on rootful, does it work? though again i don't see how that would make a difference if you confirmed your tweak's code is being executed

[celest star]

Yes, I have installed ellekit, and I can see the code is successfully injected into SpringBoard and is doing its job, jus no effect

[hasty ruin]

Check syslog ig

[celest star]

I will try, thank you

[faint stag]

but you just said you're running jailed? if you weren't jailed then you'd have libsubstrate on the system already
you either have to build for ellekit or have a substrate framework that basically points to ellekit if you aren't bundling substrate

[tepid olive]

whats easiest

and how
