[lilac wren]

I think just rootfsing shouldn't change generator, I can test day after tomorrow

[zealous bridge]

@celest basalt found a fix for fr renaming the rootfs snapshot ig

[zealous bridge]

mine does

ive tested it multiple times

but it doesnt for other people

which is weird

this kind of issue is rare tho

[elder palm]

thank you @zealous bridge

and other people who helped

[zealous bridge]

how many people have we told to use -u while jailbroken

[minor nacelle]

so last question, do i have to be in recovery/dfu?

[zealous bridge]

and nothing happened

[zealous bridge]

no, fr will do this automatically

[minor nacelle]

alrighty, thanks for the answers, wish me luck

[zealous bridge]

np, i was kinda scared for you in the rootfs moment tho

cause i didnt know a fix for it

just some ideas

[elder palm]

i'd make a r/jb post teaching how to correctly fr using -u and not fucking up the snapshot but it would definitely be downvoted and deleted because its agaisnt the server opinion

[elder palm]

LMAOO

[zealous bridge]

good luck

[elder palm]

im glad it worked

[zealous bridge]

lol ikr

plus its really rare

so it wouldnt apply to most people

[elder palm]

i hope

[zealous bridge]

so it is a taurine issue

ffs

if unc0vermoment is a tag then that should be taurinemoment

idgaf

[elder palm]

lmao ikr

[celest basalt]

wdym taurine issue

[elder palm]

ERR_JAILBREAK

while updating arm64e ios 13 to 14

[celest basalt]

if you did futurerestore -u without restoring rootfs that fucks up the rootfs snapshot regardless of which jailbreak you use

[elder palm]

we fixed the snapshot

[zealous bridge]

unc0ver fixes it

lol

checkra1n does too

its a taurine issue

[celest basalt]

it does? pwn tweeted some years ago that you need to use succession to recover from it

[elder palm]

im glad we found a fix for a12+

[minor nacelle]

hmm ngl i feel very dumb in this chat

[elder palm]

i think more people should know about it

[zealous bridge]

looks like pwn got his game on

[celest basalt]

restoring rootfs does not clear the generator though so it's safest to just do that

[zealous bridge]

set your generator

[celest basalt]

I mean before FR

[zealous bridge]

Does for me

lol

i screen recorded my computer connected to ssh

[celest basalt]

which JB

[zealous bridge]

checkra1n i believe, it couldve been u0 too

it was on iP7

no it was checkra1n

[celest basalt]

eh, pretty sure checkra1n does not mess with the generator at all

[zealous bridge]

yeah

[celest basalt]

but with checkra1n you can use checkm8-nonce-setter in DFU anyway

[zealous bridge]

but rebooting did

for some reason

thought that was broken

lol

but its an easy fix tbh

[celest basalt]

anyway, Succession restore system data only should fix the issue after futurerestore -u too, but idk if it also fixes the snapshot itself

[zealous bridge]

people scaremonger -u for no reason

yeah

if you can’t jailbreak with taurine then restore rootfs with u0 twice then try again

that should fix it

this issue doesnt occur on unc0ver or checkra1n fyi

only on taurine thats why i called it a taurine error

[celest basalt]

well it isn't "for no reason", even if there is a fix you still have to resort to workarounds because you mess up the snapshot by doing it

I don't know about checkra1n, but u0 does some lengthy process when restoring rootfs so maybe it does more than restoring the snapshot, idk

the best way to FR is still making a backup and not using -u IMO

you should be making a backup to be safe either way

[zealous bridge]

think of it as you are still jailbroken after updating, when you restore the system snapshot and restore rootfs after fr then it would go back to its unjailbroken state, from there you can either restore with succession or just continue using your jailbreak normally, which has no issues

[zealous bridge]

i always tell people this

[celest basalt]

and I think with -u it spends a bunch of time on "attempting data recovery" anyway

[zealous bridge]

true

might be because its an ipsw upgrade from a huge gap in versions

i think ota update are less invasive

damn i wish u0 was open sourced

[green onyx]

seems legit, gonna say this from now on

[zealous bridge]

wait that was a question

what are you gonna say

[zealous bridge]

tbh as long as the generator doesn’t change thru reboots, i’ll tell then to restore rootfs, if they get an apnonce error then tell them to disable -u, if they cant/dont have a backup then tell them its fine but you have to restore rootfs later to fix it

[green onyx]

alright

seems good

i dont use -u anyways, i always have itunes unjailbroken backups

[zealous bridge]

even itunes jailbroken backups should be good

[green onyx]

hm

[zealous bridge]

since they dont touch anything outside /var

[green onyx]

if u restored root fs, yes

[zealous bridge]

this also

[green onyx]

also

does the futurerestore compile script support opensuse?

[zealous bridge]

what is that based on

[green onyx]

it supports fedora 33 but i think it uses same package managers

[zealous bridge]

debain?

[green onyx]

red hat i think

[zealous bridge]

oh

it should thnen

but the script checks the distro by name

so if its called something else then i dont think it’ll work

that could be easily changed manually tho

[green onyx]

huh

[zealous bridge]

the script checks “is the os called this? or this? if not, it’s not supported”

if you just change what it checks for it should work

[green onyx]

true

or i might use kde neon

or kubuntu (using it rn)

[zealous bridge]

kde neon is sick

[green onyx]

have u used it?

or nah

[zealous bridge]

but i like kubuntu better because of the update schedule

[green onyx]

i need a kde debian based distro

[zealous bridge]

yep

[green onyx]

huh

[zealous bridge]

kubuntu updates along with ubuntu

[green onyx]

ye ofc lol

why wouldnt it

[zealous bridge]

so when 21.04 or 21.10 comes out

it’ll also be updated

but kde neon is seperate

[green onyx]

huh

[zealous bridge]

it doesnt update along with ubuntu

has its own updating scheme

[celest basalt]

21.04 is good bc it has irecovery in apt btw

[zealous bridge]

its only ubuntu based i think

[green onyx]

wait fr

[celest basalt]

yes

[green onyx]

damn

[zealous bridge]

kubuntu is literally ubuntu with kde

thats pog icl

[green onyx]

huh, gonna stick with kubuntu then

kinda dont like canonical tho but its fine

[celest basalt]

How do i get my phone's BaseBand?

you can technically install irecovery from the checkra1n repo on 20.10 and lower if you edit the control file do a little symlinking for the libreadline or whatever dependency

[green onyx]

use latest

[celest basalt]

but 21.04 has it in default repos

[green onyx]

dont specify

[green onyx]

damn, gonna use ubuntu based stuff now

my main uses of linux are just jb related stuff

[celest basalt]

What's this

[green onyx]

use latest

dw about it

[celest basalt]

ok]

[green onyx]

@celest basalt screenshot the whole gui

ill make sure everything is ok first

[green onyx]

chose ipsw and shsh2 first

wait

uh

[celest basalt]

?

[green onyx]

that irestore is outdated

doesnt use latest futurerestore

jtv's is windows only i think

[celest basalt]

How do i get that for mac

[green onyx]

uh

here:

https://github.com/CoocooFroggy/FutureRestore-GUI/releases/tag/1.72

damn

froggy keeping track of issues

[minor nacelle]

fingers crossed and hope it ended well

[green onyx]

pog

[green onyx]

well done!

[minor nacelle]

alright second loading bar

i think it'll be okay

[green onyx]

u are fine

dw

[minor nacelle]

thanks for the assist tho, if there's any issues i'll send it in here

[green onyx]

alright, happy to help

[minor nacelle]

oh and I have a question, why is the one with generator of 0x111... preferred over the other?

[celest basalt]

is it supposed to be like this?

[elder palm]

if anyone cares at all, I posted the snapshot fix on r/jb
https://www.reddit.com/r/jailbreak/comments/mk6p87/tutorial_fix_for_restoring_stock_snapshot_after/

[green onyx]

yes

[green onyx]

just easier to input

[minor nacelle]

fair enough

ayyy welcome screen

[green onyx]

poggers

ur good now

gg

[minor nacelle]

thanks a lot

[green onyx]

i didnt help a lot but np

[minor nacelle]

moral support is enough

[celest basalt]

off topic but restoring rootfs rn bc Taurine is bootlooping with tweaks enabled ._.

[elder palm]

bootlooping?

[celest basalt]

not full bootloop

[elder palm]

oh

[celest basalt]

just in jailbroken state

[elder palm]

that sucks im sorry

[celest basalt]

if I rejb with tweaks disabled it's ok but as soon as I enable tweaks and ldrestart/reboot userspace it breaks again

[elder palm]

i think that's a common issue for ios 14

[green onyx]

report it

[elder palm]

i heard some people having it with taurine as well

[celest basalt]

I did send panic log of watchdog timeout

[elder palm]

not sure if it was taurine or unc0ver

[celest basalt]

last thing I installed was a Lynx 2 update which causes instant safe mode when opening any app, but I downgraded and even uninstalled it

it started looping after I typoed launchctl reboot userspace so it did a full reboot instead and I tried to rejb

[zealous bridge]

lol my jailbreak got fucked on taurine when i reinstalled rocketboostrap, all apps started crashing, safe mode did nothing but rejb with load tweaks off did fix it, but if i wanted tweaks on it wouldnt, had to restore rootfs ans setup again

idk why just seems weird

[celest basalt]

you sure you didn't install an incompatible version of RBS?

[zealous bridge]

nah, it was working fine for two days, then safari plus starting giving me unable to communicate errors, then so did crane, it wall up to date and the right versions 100%

completely out of the blue

wasnt a tweak issue either

[celest basalt]

did you try ldrestart/userspace reboot before reinstalling

that usually fixes it for me

happens mostly when enabling libhooker and then only respringing so the RBS daemon doesn't start

[zealous bridge]

nah i didnt, but it seems like it was a one time thing anyway

[zealous bridge]

logs down again lmao

Microsoft wtf

[green onyx]

hm

[small chasm]

Anyone having problem with ssh to port 22 after FutureRestore ?

[zealous bridge]

thats not a futurerestore issue

try reinstall openssh

[lilac wren]

Nah that's an issue with me idk why it just freezes randomly

Pls ping every time it happens until I can get around to fixing it for good

[mossy stump]

🥰😂

Dark mode

[lilac wren]

And in case you need to test if logs are up, this should work
https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/bd2c324be0ab4935acf7773f04d08de7

[lilac wren]

Was bored so created a few short links to the latest release of GUI

http://frgui.tk
http://frgui.ml
http://frgui.cf
http://frgui.gq
http://frgui.ga

Wait wait best to promote
http://frgui.cf/

Because FutureRestore GUI dot CoocooFroggy

See it makes sense

[low summit]

Never knew there's another gui besides urs

[lilac wren]

Honestly me either

Until after I created it and JTV told me about irestore

[low summit]

Is there any differences

[lilac wren]

Yeah a few

I don't think other GUIs have a log, it just opens terminal

Also since they don't have a terminal they cannot parse errors

Also ensuring you're on the latest version of FR

[low summit]

So u can't see what when wrong

[lilac wren]

Dark mode and light mode

[low summit]

If it fails

[lilac wren]

Auto send logs to devs to get better

You can see what went wrong just the GUI can't. It's just run in terminal but like it'll say "iBEC error" and you won't know what to do

[low summit]

Bruh I saved shsh the day after 14.3 rc stopped being signed lol

[tender relic]

freenom domain

[hard thunder]

u wont get banned on snap for that?

[quasi nebula]

currently going to 14.3 from 13.5 but ive been on the apple logo + progress bar for almost 30min now and it seems like bars not moving. gui logs seem to alternate between "FDR 000... waiting for message..." and "FDR 000.. timeout waiting for command"

[quasi nebula]

well, progress bar still seems to be stuck at ~10%, gonna go to sleep and leave it there and hope its done when i'm awake or someone has any insight into this

[quasi nebula]

Clicking the stop button should be fine even if it’s at that progress screen? I’ll do it when I wake up it is sleep time

[humble cypress]

I am actually facing the same problem atm .. can i manually specify SEP, Baseband and BuildManifest files right from 14.3.ipsw? or it needs to be from the latest signed one 🥴 #little_noobie_in_here

[zealous bridge]

latest signed version

[zealous bridge]

you can just exit recovery and try again i believe, at this point you won’t bootloop

please don’t restore to latest if you don’t have to

that is a terrible idea

[humble cypress]

i got it working! uhh basically futurerestore-gui doesnt handle some events and so it gets stuck as @quasi nebula and I faced... issue with it being hanging at FDR..

so what i did was gotten my phone into DFU and then out of it into recovery (just to make sure there's nothing in memory idk? i'm noob)

then i rebooted my virtual machine and then i replugged the iPhone (it's in recovery)
and tried again with the proper SHSH blob and latest SEP, Baseband and Buildmanifest and now it's beyond 50%! 🥳

one thing to mention if @quasi nebula is using a VM.. is to automatically filter all the USB ports / devices of Apple to automatically mount on connect this saved me the time mounting the USB device everytime the phone reboots or gets into recovery etc.

@zealous bridge thankie! :p

[zealous bridge]

the gui does not affect the futurerestore process at all

its just a display for it

whatever problem you had was to do with the device (or possibly usb passthrough on a vm like you said)

but i believe futurerestore would just fail if it can’t connect to the device

the first 10% takes ages tho

so patience is a virtue

[humble cypress]

oh thanks for the explanation

[zealous bridge]

this issue is simply “please try again later”

but please wait for fr to fail first

[humble cypress]

xD it failed at 60% x.x.. retrying... lol

[zealous bridge]

uhh

log?

also you’re in a bootloop

well you should be if you failed at 60%

[humble cypress]

:# should i send the error on pastebin or here? it's like few lines really

umm there's no OS to get in a bootloop... i can only access recovery / DFU that's all... idk if that's considered a bootloop xD

https://pastebin.com/evRRHxT7

oh i should have taken a screenshot instead /).-

[zealous bridge]

ah that fucking error

that pissed me off when i got it

theres like a 1 in 1000 chance you can get it

it failed to verify that the filesystem was sent properly

[humble cypress]

oh

[zealous bridge]

ye you need to restore to latest

And try again

[humble cypress]

oh can i downgrade from latest into 14.3? 😮

apparently i can 😆

alrighty thanks for the help

[zealous bridge]

i mean if you are A11 and below

np

[humble cypress]

yes

[zealous bridge]

yeah jailbreak with checkra1n

[neat bough]

Hi! I use Iphone 11 (A 13 chip).
Try to Upgrade from 13.2.3 to 14.3

Try 1. See screenshot.
I set up SHSH Blobs in iphone's settings to 0x1111111111111111 and in file xxx.shsh2 ==> It doesnt work.

Try 2.
I set up SHSH Blobs in iphone's settings and in file xxx.shsh2 to default as it was in file xxx.shsh2: 0x15419369a802e .

Process started. But some errors appeared:
EBUG: tss_response_get_path_by_entry: No entry 'SystemVolume' in TSS response
NOTE: No path for component SystemVolume in TSS, will fetch from build identity
Tag found
FDR 0x7f81de610c30 timeout waiting for command

Then
Cleaning up...
Done: restoring succeeded!
FutureRestore process ended.

Now on iPhone's screen is apple logo. Progress bar below. And text:
"data recovery attempt"

What I did wrong? Or it is ok?

[zealous bridge]

that’s completely normal

after the attempting data recovery you’re phone will reboot with another apple logo with loading bar underneath and then you should be on the hello screen

[valid adder]

Probably will investigate 14.2 again

[zealous bridge]

you got an idea or smth?

[valid adder]

Someone else is now interested

[zealous bridge]

🤨

[neat bough]

Cool, thank you!

[lilac wren]

Gm

[humble cypress]

alright thanks! uh question...... do you recommend taurine?... i was using unc0ver but people got into my head and made me switch... and so i tried it! and it worked! but i saw that RestoreFS in unc0ver didn't delete all tweak files and folders... and so i decided to go clean on taurine... but now i see it's an issue and i got unlucky to have this error... so what do you think?

[lilac wren]

"Someone else" o_O

[zealous bridge]

gmm!

[zealous bridge]

taurine won’t delete your tweak preference files either

but i doubt taurine would’ve caused this issue

neither would unc0ver

it’s a restore

[humble cypress]

Good morning

mmm alright then...

[zealous bridge]

if you’re asking for my personal opinion then don’t

use taurine and unc0ver both equally

whichever one works best for you

use that

don’t let other people influence your decisions

you choose what you wanna use

[lilac wren]

Yeah see for yourself

Unless you have checkra1n available then use that lol

[humble cypress]

i mean i always felt comfortable with cydia... i don't mind old interface stuff!

[zealous bridge]

iPad 1??

[lilac wren]

That's not too much of an argument unless you adore Sileo like me, bc you can always get Cydia on Taurine

[lilac wren]

If I did iphone XR 14.3 nickname would be too long according To GIR lol

So 4.3 = 14.3

Well

[zealous bridge]

ahh

[lilac wren]

1, 4.3

= 14.3

[zealous bridge]

👀

[humble cypress]

🥺 i'm downloading 14.4.2 then i'll try to downgrade to 14.3 hoping that i won't get this error again * fingers crossed *

[zealous bridge]

good luck!

[humble cypress]

thanks a lot!

opa334 (@opa334dev)

turns out downgrading with -u may not be the best idea 😅 now healthd is heating up the phone

Twitter · Apr 5, 2021, 12:00 PM

bear in mind when downgrading with -u

[humble cypress]

oh okay 😮

[lilac wren]

Do you think iCloud backups are just better then

[zealous bridge]

tbh idk

i thought apple would have some protections against it since you can downgrade with iTunes if the version is signed

apparently not

but again just recreate the health database using filza

and you should be good to go

[zinc moon]

Is tanbeer online

YES

Ok so

[zealous bridge]

no

i'm offline

lol

[zinc moon]

@keen crow

Come here

Tanbeer, in China, iOS 14.1 is signed

However

It didn’t work for kian

When he used iTunes

[zealous bridge]

what the fuck

no it isn't

[lilac wren]

No way

[zinc moon]

In China it is

[zealous bridge]

proof now

[lilac wren]

It's only for china's iphone XS Max or something

[zinc moon]

Yea

[lilac wren]

And it's been like that for a month

[zinc moon]

That’s the device he has

[lilac wren]

OH LOL

[zealous bridge]

what

lol

ohhh

oh it is!

[lilac wren]

Ok easy just alt click the update button in iTunes and select 14.1 ipsw

[zinc moon]

Where did he go wtf

It didn’t work for him

[lilac wren]

Or save blobs rn

[zinc moon]

It gave him an error

[zinc moon]

And use fr?

[zealous bridge]

what error?

[zinc moon]

@keen crow what was the error?

[zealous bridge]

cant use fr to 14.1 on xs max

[lilac wren]

Save blobs just in case it gets unsigned

Oh

[keen crow]

No no there isn’t an error

[zinc moon]

When you tried in iTunes

Did it work?

[keen crow]

But my iTunes ecid number looks like hexadecimal

Oh yes that error

[zealous bridge]

ok?

[zinc moon]

yea rhat

[zealous bridge]

ecids can be express in hex

whats the issue

[lilac wren]

If they're jailbroken on 13 they could right

[zealous bridge]

no

[keen crow]

So I don’t know whether I should convert it to hex or is it already converted

[zinc moon]

14.1 restores are broken rn

[lilac wren]

Why not

[zealous bridge]

bro dont do anything

[zinc moon]

kian I meant, what was the error when you tried?

[zealous bridge]

itunes handles everything

[keen crow]

Oh in iTunes originally

[zinc moon]

To use the IPSW?

[keen crow]

Yes yes

[zinc moon]

I think you posted it

[keen crow]

Basically it was extracting the file and then gave me an error

[zinc moon]

You posted it let me see

[zealous bridge]

how much storage do you have

on your pc

[lilac wren]

Oh I'm dumb

[keen crow]

No supposedly it is a problem with connection

Yep that’s it

[zealous bridge]

oh thats the unsigned version error

weird

[zinc moon]

[zealous bridge]

or the wrong device

[zinc moon]

@keen crow can you go to settings, about, and tell us the phone model number?

It will be A something something

[zealous bridge]

you have to click on it

[keen crow]

MT742ZA/A

[zealous bridge]

click on it

then copy it

[zinc moon]

@keen crow do you see where it says iPhone XS Max?

[keen crow]

Yep

[zealous bridge]

click on the model number

and then copy the A value

[keen crow]

Yes this is ir

MT742ZA/A

[zealous bridge]

no

click on that

[keen crow]

Ohh

Sorry

A2104

[zealous bridge]

ok

[zinc moon]

Let’s see

[zealous bridge]

thats not chinese xs max

thats normal

lmaooo

[keen crow]

Ffs

[lilac wren]

Lol

[keen crow]

Fr?

[zealous bridge]

yes

[zinc moon]

Tanbeer is right

[keen crow]

Wait but look

[zinc moon]

Kian, did you buy it IN China?

[keen crow]

China and Hong Kong

[zealous bridge]

ok so?

[keen crow]

Hong Kong

[zealous bridge]

all iphones are made in china

well most of them

[zinc moon]

Hong Kong is different from China in this case

[zealous bridge]

like 95% of them

[keen crow]

No but Hong Kong and China is considered same no?

[zealous bridge]

manufacturing place is not the same as the model

just because your phone was made there

doesnt mean its a different model

its still an xs max

chinese xs max is differemt

[keen crow]

What’s the model number of the Chinese one

[zealous bridge]

board config is D331AP

[keen crow]

Yeah no this is mine

I swear

[zealous bridge]

it's not

[keen crow]

Mine is dual sim

[zealous bridge]

ok so?

[keen crow]

And the Chinese version is the only dual sim one

[lilac wren]

Dual Sim with two actual Sims? Or esim and regular sim

[keen crow]

Yes 2 actual sims

[zealous bridge]

acc u might be right

[keen crow]

A2104 is Hong Kong and China

[zealous bridge]

DM me your serial number

i'll do a reincubate lookup

unless you can do that yourself?

[keen crow]

Ok sure

Yep

It says China mainland

[zealous bridge]

no

whats the board config

[keen crow]

Do you want the MPN?

Oh

Ok I got it

[zealous bridge]

go to the Hardware page

[keen crow]

D331AP

[zealous bridge]

fuck

thats china

[keen crow]

Yeah

[zealous bridge]

ur right

xs max nornal is d331pap

[keen crow]

Ah ok

Should I just continue with future restore?

[zealous bridge]

you cant futurerestore to 14.1

[keen crow]

Hmm so do I have no options?

[zealous bridge]

iPhone11,2,iPhone11,6,iPhone12,3,iPhone12,5_14.1_18A8395_Restore.ipsw

is that the name of ur ipsw

[keen crow]

Yes that’s the one

[zealous bridge]

notice how that the ipsw doesn't have your device identifier iPhone11,4 in it

idk maybe ipsw.me fucked up

[keen crow]

Ahh yeah ffs

[zealous bridge]

try rename it

[keen crow]

Thanks I guess

[zealous bridge]

iPhone11,2,iPhone11,4,iPhone11,6,iPhone12,3,iPhone12,5_14.1_18A8395_Restore.ipsw

maybe that will work?

[keen crow]

Ok I’ll try

[zealous bridge]

no ida

[keen crow]

Yeah it seems awfully strange that’s it’s only that one device that is still signed

Nope still the 3194 error

[zealous bridge]

i'll check with tsschecker

[keen crow]

Thanks

[zealous bridge]

fuck i have to compile it

[keen crow]

It’s fine if it’s too much hassle

[zealous bridge]

let's see how much i have to do

actually imma go over to my dualboot

[keen crow]

Ok sure

[zealous bridge]

Ah ok cool

Thought something was fishy

Aight thanks a ton for the help

[zealous bridge]

np

[keen crow]

Btw do you recommend me downgrade to iOS 14.4.2

For jailbreaking obv

[zealous bridge]

here's proof

what version are you on now

[keen crow]

14.5

On the beta I think

[zealous bridge]

ye downgrade

and block updates

[keen crow]

Ok sure thanks

[IMG4TOOL] SHSH2 contains generator 0x1111111111111111 which is BAD for nonce in IM4M!

what does this mean again

[zinc moon]

Isn’t there anywhere else he can get an IPSW?

[zealous bridge]

it's not signed

it doesn't matter

[zinc moon]

But isn’t it weird

[zealous bridge]

not really

ipsw.me acts up all the time

[zinc moon]

I meant this

[zealous bridge]

couldve happened to any device

[zinc moon]

Hm

@zealous bridge why does China have its own iPhones?

[green onyx]

what blob is this

onboard?

[green onyx]

censorship

[zealous bridge]

normal

[green onyx]

huh

[zinc moon]

I thought there was a good reason

[zealous bridge]

i saved with tsschecker too to double check

both of them were like this

i mean ig it doesnt matter

[green onyx]

theres also chinese tracking shit inside the chinese iphones

[zealous bridge]

^

[zinc moon]

Sad

[green onyx]

and u cant use google products

on chinese iphones

[zinc moon]

Do Chinese ppl know abt this

[green onyx]

ye

at least i do

[zinc moon]

[green onyx]

my grandfather has a chinese xiaomi phone

and theres no google stuff

and u cant get any google stuff, even by sideloading

its just chinese spyware

[zinc moon]

Does it have ads?

[low summit]

China got iphones since forever

[green onyx]

no

[zinc moon]

I thought MIUI has ads

[low summit]

Wait china iphones don't got ads

[zinc moon]

I’m talking about Xiaomi

[low summit]

Google is not even allowed lol

[zinc moon]

They blocked google in 2008

[low summit]

All android phones in china don't got play store

They got their own store

[zinc moon]

Google said they didn’t come to a consensus

With the government

About censorship

So they just blocked them lol

I bet google regrets it DEEPLY

[low summit]

Even android I brought back to China play store don't work

[celest basalt]

yeah use a vpn if you're visiting china

[zinc moon]

What if you buy an Android outside China

[celest basalt]

please

[zinc moon]

And then bring it in

[celest basalt]

and thank you

[zinc moon]

What happens to Gapps

[low summit]

Don't work

Use vpn

[celest basalt]

^

[zinc moon]

Ah

Do Chinese people use VPNs

[low summit]

No

Vpn not allowed

[celest basalt]

a lot of vpns are blocked, there aren't any free ones in china, only the expensive ones

[zinc moon]

[low summit]

Actually there's like chinese vpns

[zinc moon]

How does that Chinese girl

[low summit]

Vpn to watch chinese shit lol

[zinc moon]

Li zi qi

[strong kindle]

anyone got any idea about getting ++ apps

[zinc moon]

Upload vids on YouTube then

[zinc moon]

No

Don’t ask here

[strong kindle]

ok

[low summit]

I mean u could get around stuff lol

Like go to another country import a phone

[zinc moon]

I mean like I think the Chinese gov said something about li zi qi being good

Despite her posting on YouTube

[celest basalt]

China says they have the power to ban all vpns, like what they tried doing with The Great Firewall but people got around it

[low summit]

Yea get around stuff

Ccp knows everything

So

Don't try to fk around in china

[zinc moon]

She has like 20m+ followers on weibo

[low summit]

Ppl in china don't even fk around lol they got other shit to do

[zinc moon]

Oh

[low summit]

U don't really need yt in china there's other platforms

That does the same shit

[green onyx]

true

[zinc moon]

Hmm

[green onyx]

but its monitored

[low summit]

Besides why yt in china no one watch yt

So it's mad pointless

If ur a content creator in china lol why would you even use yt if no chinese ppl watch it

[celest basalt]

I'm never going to china, don't even get me started on the social credit system

[low summit]

Well I'm chinese so

[zinc moon]

I don’t think China is as bad as some people potray it

[low summit]

Born in china

Not it's mad good lol

[green onyx]

true

[zinc moon]

But it doesn’t seem like it’s the heaven the CCP claims it is lmao

[green onyx]

nah is shit

[zealous bridge]

why doesnt libfragmentzip have a cli

thats shit

[low summit]

China is like lght

It's not too bad

It's like a free for all

Ccp don't really care if it's not treason lol

[zinc moon]

hmm

[low summit]

China is not north Korea lol we got businesses and shit

[celest basalt]

I mean, if you jay walk you'll get publicly shamed and thats just the beginning

[low summit]

Lol tf

I j walk all the time

[zinc moon]

What the fuck

Not a flex

[green onyx]

in china?

[celest basalt]

it may not be in your district but that does happen

[low summit]

Yea

U have to lol

[zinc moon]

Please stop jaywalking

[low summit]

Cars don't stop

[zinc moon]

It’s dangerous as fuck

[low summit]

Why u mean

[zinc moon]

Oh

[green onyx]

nah, china also has cameras everywhere with facial recognition software

[low summit]

U can't cross otherwise

[zinc moon]

I’m not being mean but it’s very dangerous

[zealous bridge]

Bro Turkey drivers are the worst

They never stop

For shit

[low summit]

Lol china too

[green onyx]

[zealous bridge]

Even if theres a zebra crossing

Its like it doesnt exist

[low summit]

OK maybe not that

Lol

[zinc moon]

In Jordan, if the thing is green, they go, if it’s yellow, they do, if it’s red, they check for a police officer

If there’s one then they don’t go

[green onyx]

[low summit]

Different cities in china is different lol

Like it's completely different

[abstract rain]

Is there any way at all to downgrade to 14.3 from 14.4.2 w/o saved blobs?

Really want to switch to Taurine from checkra1n

[low summit]

Yea if you have blobs

[green onyx]

no

if u didnt save blobs, too bad

[abstract rain]

Ooof

[low summit]

Oh no blobs lol

[green onyx]

thats ur problem

[low summit]

Then obviously no

[abstract rain]

I’m very new to jail breaking and didn’t know I had to save 14.3 a couple months ago

[celest basalt]

use odysseyra1n

[low summit]

He already has

[celest basalt]

he said checkra1n

[abstract rain]

I want to use Face ID and passcode but checkra1n doesn’t let me

[low summit]

Probably means the same thing ppl don't know

[abstract rain]

Isn’t that the windows version of checkra1n

[zealous bridge]

no

[celest basalt]

he said he's new so he probably doesn't have it

[low summit]

Lol see

Ppl don't know the difference

[abstract rain]

🥲

So, with odesseyra1n I can use Face ID and passcode?

[celest basalt]

no

[low summit]

Odysseyra1n is just a script for sileo

[green onyx]

no

[low summit]

On top of Checkra1n

So he has a11

[abstract rain]

Yea iPhone X

And just to confirm, only checkra1n doesn’t let me use Face ID due to its exploit but other jailbreaks do? Or is it just any A11 device?

[green onyx]

just dont jailbreak, if u want face id

[zealous bridge]

its just the nature of the checkm8 exploit

[green onyx]

blackbird doesnt work on A11

^what checkra1n uses for A10 and below

[zealous bridge]

any other jailbreak will allow you to have face id functionality

[low summit]

Well it's apple fking with sep

They don't like checkm8

So they fk with sep

[abstract rain]

Welp I can only wait for the new exploit then

[low summit]

Which is hard if ur on 14.4.2

Shouldve been on 14.4 or something

[abstract rain]

Only if I had know before I jailbroke

[lilac wren]

Yeah ipsw.me is Coocoo, on telegram jailbreak bot I can save blobs on XS Max China for signed versions but for 14.1 (which telegram bot shows as signed) says Error Selected device can't be used with that buildmanifest

[humble cypress]

tadaaaaa 🥳 it worked! @zealous bridge

[green onyx]

poggers

[lilac wren]

Congrats!!

[green onyx]

well done

[zealous bridge]

wow congrats

[humble cypress]

thanks :p

[green onyx]

@lilac wren nice nickname! lol

[lilac wren]

Lol

[zealous bridge]

i second this

[green onyx]

oh

the link redirects

to the github releases

[lilac wren]

Yeah it's not a website

[green onyx]

thats pretty cool

[lilac wren]

Just a sort of shortlink

[green onyx]

ah i see

[low summit]

China phones have different shsh?

[zealous bridge]

different model identifer so yh ig so

[low summit]

Apple got mad work to do then lol

[lilac wren]

Only xs max it seems has a China version?

[low summit]

Idk I saw a few that did

[zealous bridge]

nah just the xs max

[low summit]

That's weird why just one phone

[lilac wren]

Actually no supposedly XR - iphone 12 have China double Sims? According to iPhone wiki

Just same identifier

Different model number

[low summit]

China uses global X and below I believe

[zealous bridge]

Apple said it made the exception for Chinese iPhones because of China’s resistance against eSIMs. I’m not sure how true that statement is, considering China Telcom launched an eSIM earlier this year. But the fact that Apple made a unique version of its new iPhones for the China shows how important the Chinese market is.

[lilac wren]

Nvm not 12, only through 11 it seems

[zealous bridge]

only for the dual sims

thats the only reason

[low summit]

They make phones in china anyways so it's probably easy

[green onyx]

yes but chinese bought phones have censorship software in them

[low summit]

Yup

[zealous bridge]

install unc0ver and restore rootfs

twice

then jailbreak again with taurine

[vivid nova]

Don't need to, means exploit failed

[zealous bridge]

err_jailbreak is already jailbroken

someone had this exact same issue yesterday

[lyric geyser]

ok thanks

[zealous bridge]

its on r/jb subreddit

[vivid nova]

Why can't they fix the stupid error message to read the problem

[zealous bridge]

true

[low summit]

Dumbest error message

Doesn't even state the problem

[zealous bridge]

oh no

[low summit]

?

[zealous bridge]

the error message lol

oh no

[low summit]

Lol true

At least u0 tells you the error

[unreal isle]

when him fix this fdr error problem ?

[zealous bridge]

no eta

[wheat basalt]

I seem to have two .shsh2 files for 14.3 through tsssaver, does it matter which one I choose?

[zealous bridge]

one of them has 0x1111... as a generator, use that one

[wheat basalt]

how would I find out which one does?

also I was told by someone that I should use futurerestore v192, the newest one however is v194, should I use that one instead?

[zealous bridge]

open both of them with a text editor, and ctrl f search for “generator”

[wheat basalt]

okay, will do, ty

[zealous bridge]

whoever told you to use v192 you should never take advice from them again

use the latest version

v194

[wheat basalt]

well they just said that I should use that one over the one that was mentioned in the video they sent me

[zealous bridge]

that was probably outdated then

do you want an up to date tutorial

[wheat basalt]

that would have been s0uthwest v245

yeah sure, I'd appreciate it!

[zealous bridge]

https://ios.cfw.guide/fr

[wheat basalt]

thank you very much

[zealous bridge]

np

[zealous bridge]

that doesnt even support ios 14

[wheat basalt]

yes, that's why the person said to use v192 instead

[zealous bridge]

v192 is outdated too

[wheat basalt]

yeah I figured, maybe it wasn't when they told me

it was a while back because I was waiting for Taurine :)

[wheat basalt]

I found it, thanks!

[green onyx]

ngl, frgui looks nice on kubuntu

[zealous bridge]

yeah it does

[green onyx]

cant wait to use it in the future tho

when like 14.4 jb comes out or smthn

[zealous bridge]

how are you liking kubuntu then

[green onyx]

kde is top tier de

kubuntu looks pog

[zealous bridge]

lol

awesome

[green onyx]

wish that mint still supported kde

if it had, i wouldve used mint tho

[lilac wren]

Does kubuntu have dark mode

[green onyx]

no

well it does

[lilac wren]

Bc since I switched to Java 11, I can finally support linux dark modes

Ah ok

[green onyx]

but frgui doesnt work

with the dark/light mode

[lilac wren]

Oh it should :/

[zealous bridge]

Works on Windows

[green onyx]

i changed my global theme to breeze dark

and frgui is light

hmmmmm

[lilac wren]

Hm I'll get a vm to try it out later

[green onyx]

alright! ty

[lilac wren]

Last I checked it did work with Ubuntu dark

[green onyx]

hm

i also realized that the rpm file for frgui is kinda wasted bc theres no statically compiled version for fr for fedora etc distros

[lilac wren]

Yeah haha

If you compile it yourself though

[zealous bridge]

you can select the binary tho

[lilac wren]

^

[zealous bridge]

for manually compiled

[green onyx]

oh

i see

thats pog

[lilac wren]

Someone on mango or whatever it was isn't even RPM or deb, and they got FR working

[green onyx]

manjaro?

lol

[lilac wren]

Yes haha

There's the Linux universal app executable

[zealous bridge]

Mango

[lilac wren]

It's not truly the appimage

[zealous bridge]

lmaoo

[lilac wren]

I was close ok :P

[zealous bridge]

sure sure

[green onyx]

also, i recommend putting a dropdown menu for system, light or dark mode

in settings at least

[lilac wren]

That's so smart

Def gonna be priority feature

[green onyx]

bc changing light and dark for many linux distros is gonna be hard

having a manual switch is just easier imo

[lilac wren]

Yeah

I'll see if I can get dynamic dark mode working as well

I did manage to get it working but it messed up my manual font changes

[green onyx]

huh, alright looking forward to it, but dont try so hard if it doesnt work

[lilac wren]

Fashion over function

[green onyx]

adding a switch is easier on ur side and on user's side

[lilac wren]

Wait other way around

[green onyx]

idk

[zealous bridge]

thats an awful principle

yeah other way round

lmao

[lilac wren]

Lol meant the other way

[green onyx]

lol

[lilac wren]

Lol

[lilac wren]

XS Max to 14.2 success #818879231772983357 message

[green onyx]

damn

also

visual bug

kubuntu 20.04.2

[lilac wren]

Lol wow

[zealous bridge]

ery

[lilac wren]

Can you scroll at all or no

[green onyx]

idk

oh yes

i can scroll

[lilac wren]

Lol that's still bad

I will add to issues

[green onyx]

pog

or, u can make the window bigger?

for the commands lol

im assuming this happens normally too

[lilac wren]

Yeah would be nice to just dynamically scale the window

https://github.com/CoocooFroggy/FutureRestore-GUI/issues/30

[green onyx]

pog

u have a private repo?

👀

lol

[lilac wren]

Well I don't want the main repo spammed with releases from my testing lol

I think releases are the same across branches so I couldn't really do that

And idk if I can fork my own project to PR later so I just duplicated it

[green onyx]

ah i see

https://github.com/marijuanARM/futurerestore/issues/12

LMAO

[zealous bridge]

what the fuck

lol

that person literally made a github account for that

[green onyx]

lol ikr

im laughing so hard

its literally a 4 year old that doesnt know anything

[lilac wren]

Lmho

[quasi nebula]

does -u work when downgrading? 14.4.2 to 14.3. i'm assuming no

[zealous bridge]

it works but it may have some caveats

i recommend just restoring from a backup

[green onyx]

^

@zealous bridge i also saw ur reply to opa's tweet with -u downgrading

nobody should use -u when downgrading lol

[zealous bridge]

lol

exactly

[quasi nebula]

i do have a 13.5 backup before my futurerestore failed

[zealous bridge]

use that

[quasi nebula]

@zealous bridge you know these caveats? i'm testing on an old phone so i dont mind

[zealous bridge]

some databases have some migration issues

but they are easily fixable by just starting new ones

like health

[quasi nebula]

hmm

dont really use the health app but trying to think of others

i guess i should just restore from backup anyways

since i have it

[zealous bridge]

yeah

[quasi nebula]

@zealous bridge any special steps? im assuming same steps I know I have to set the nonce generator with checkra1n this time instead

[green onyx]

nothing much

jailbreak

use dimentio to set generator

plug phone in

make sure u have correct blob and ipsw

and run the command

if u use the gui:

just select the files in the menu for ipsw and blobs

and run

[quasi nebula]

ye ok, thanks

[surreal willow]

hey there my iphone 7 ios 13.3 been stuck at connecting to fdr client for quiet some time, any idea if that's normal?

[green onyx]

what ios version are u going to?

[surreal willow]

14.3

[green onyx]

screenshot

ur probably fine

[quasi nebula]

i guess i'm cursed, same issue as last time

[zealous bridge]

thats been happening a lot recently

[green onyx]

ye

u guys are fine

[zealous bridge]

just wait tbh

[green onyx]

both of u guys are good lol

[surreal willow]

aight tanks

[green onyx]

this

[quasi nebula]

when i did it last time from 13.5 -> 14.3 i waited 8 hours cuz i went to sleep if you check my previous messages

[lilac wren]

Look a Linux dark mode :D

[zealous bridge]

uh if its been 8 hours

exit recovery and try again

dw you wont be in a bootloop

its pretty early

[quasi nebula]

the first time was 8 hours i stopped it and tried exiting recovery but it kept going back to recovery

and it seemed like i needed to update to 14.4.2 which i did

this time im trying to downgrade

[green onyx]

uh

sorry to break it to u

but thats windows lol

[lilac wren]

O_O

[quasi nebula]

ye im on windows lol

[lilac wren]

LOL

I'm dumb

[green onyx]

its fine

[lilac wren]

Saw the little Java mascot guy and I just assumed Linux idk why

[green onyx]

dw about it lol

[zealous bridge]

do you remember how far gone the bar was?

the first time

and how much it is the second time

[quasi nebula]

ye ill take a pic its pretty much the same progress

[zealous bridge]

thats weird

im gonna try my own fr soon

because i think this is getting

weird

[quasi nebula]

i saw conflicting posts about using latest baseband and sep so idk if it could be that

[zealous bridge]

lot of people are getting stuck at fdr

latest baseband and sep really shouldnt affect this at all

[quasi nebula]

oh ok

[zealous bridge]

but it is something to do with sep

im 95% sure about that

[quasi nebula]

im pretty sure its the same situation as last time but i guess i can wait

someone was saying they got past this point but failed around 60%

[zealous bridge]

yeah there was

thats a completely different error tho

i have gotten that as well once

[quasi nebula]

ye seems like theirs also failed

[zealous bridge]

so you guys are both ip7

what was the earlier guy on

he didnt say rip

[quasi nebula]

im on 8plus

[zealous bridge]

oh word

ok

[surreal willow]

ye iphone 7

sry wasn't on pc the whole time

damn studies keeping me from jb in peace

so my iphone finished and it's currently on 14.3 and seems to work well despite this

all good or there's sth I need to do?

[zealous bridge]

no it looks fine

[surreal willow]

great thanks

[quasi nebula]

nice!

i did notice these

1. im not sure if that apnonce is supposed to be the one i set but i did use dimentio to set it to 0x1111111111111111

2. i dont think i ever saw the green screen

[zealous bridge]

generator isnt the same as apnonce

[zealous bridge]

ur device doesnt have bgcolor

so it wont turn green

[quasi nebula]

oh ok thanks for clarifying

im not sure then i dont think the progress has moved

[celest basalt]

hi, i need help for restore an iphone xs max to ios 14.2 , i have a macbook

[green onyx]

what ios version are u on

and do u have blobs

[celest basalt]

already on 14.2 but i want wipe my phone, yes, i have shsh for 14.2 and 14.3 but i think i stay on the lower

[green onyx]

1. 14.3 is better

2. 14.2 to 14.2 will not work

14.2 to 14.3 will work tho

[celest basalt]

oh ok, but i'm afraid that there may be a reduction in performance

i know that is only a one version but when i have update it (OTA) i noticed a reduction in performance

[green onyx]

hm

idk

no performance issues for me
