Discord compressed it, let me know if it isn't usable and I can stick it somewhere else
Is there an OTADisabler type thing for tvOS in a repo somewhere? Misaka block still nags for 16.6 even after using MobileAsset, for some reason on my devices on16.0 to 16.4 . Maybe you know, so others can know as well
(Other than NextDNS)
you'll have to adjust the profile
Any guide for that here so peeps can do as well?
A tweak would actually be great on tvOS, where if u revert, OTA’s are still blocked at a system level (OTADisabler from ichitaso on iOS accomplishes this)
updating my tv to 17.4 so i can figure out whatever is happening
rename /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileSoftwareUpdate.framework/Support/softwareupdated and /usr/libexec/OTATaskingAgent
that will do
okay, can reproduce issue here
how persistent is it? Does it remain after reverting, or a reset? Renaming to anything u mean
also, does it break VPN on 17.x? Killed an HD on 17.0 since i had to restore, and iboot64patcher doesnt allow restores to it yet
(didnt kill it with palera1n, was with mobileasset in root via sshrd before palera1n got updated)

hmm, what if you tried install in the loader again
Same error
is this a HD
Yes
@stoic crown download this file and
palera1n -f --cli -o ~/Downloads/binpack.dmg
@stoic crown hopefully this will work https://cdn.nickchan.lol/palera1n/artifacts/c-rewrite/main/399/binaries/
@odd stone I’m back to this error now
@stoic crown build 400... https://cdn.nickchan.lol/palera1n/c-rewrite/artifacts/main/400/binaries/
blank purepkg icon?
Yes
So... now that this is working. What are people installing?
Or is it too bleeding edge atm. I think you said snowboard works?
snowboard works
well
you can also install trollstore but that would only work while jailbroken
yea same on my end. Its the latest PurePKG update that did that i think. So all good
also, in purepkg , seems u can only add one repo at a time (other than included palera1n repo)
everytime u add a new repo, it overwrites one you've already entered

emulators, multimedia, code execution, custom respring animations/wallpapers/ screensavers and so much more!
not at all a comprehensive list
Or.. Purchase the HD
I believe 17 is EOL for the hd but at least you're able to restore the thing normally unlike the 4K in the event of disaster..
I jailbroke my second Apple TV with blackb0x but Kodi has yet to show up. is this common?
I had this happen before, it's an ATV 3 1469
It boots fine but then it will lock up for a minute or two after boot, generally when I'd expect Kodi to appear
It also causes blackb0x to crash when i plug it in
I tried resetting it before and it caused it to bootloop instead, requiring a DFU restore
ah, great
i WAS on wifi on first boot
but i turned it off before Kodi showed up and now it's on a black screen
i'll just DFU restore again
This is usually the remedy to blackb0x fails
Luckily it's still being signed..
both were my fault tbh
oddly enough I can't get any more Kodi addons
Kodi addon repo shows nothing?
idk how to add repos either, i forgort
Tis why I use Ethernet
it wasn't that
it was just that i thought it wouldn't take so long
Oh yes, we're all used to the performance of the iPhone x or higher..
I'm just used to it downloading Kodi in under 10 mins
that's all
I know it won't be fast I just expected Kodi to not take so long
I was going to update blackb0x to have some type of timer/progression for post-setup viewing to give the users a guess on how long it should take..
the github says an estimate
Would be something like "disconnect and plug in to power.. Press any key after unit is powered on.. Please wait.."
now i'm just confused why Kodi doesn't see any addons
yea that too, it says it'll boot back into normal mode but it never does
Because it's XBMC and has been outdated for many, many years
ah great
Is there much I could do for watching shows then?
I imagine just local media?
Probably great for using as a local ssd or running a web server
local SSD?
Yes. Or.. Network hard drive
hey so i used Blackb0x but it didnt work!
well it did
but i dont have kodi
can someone help me out?
Y’all think checkra1n would work on the latest tvOS for the Apple TV 4K 1st Gen?
Absolutely not.
I wonder why they stopped updating checkra1n so quickly after its launch
... they've had it working for over 3 years
yes.
afaik, checkra1n works fine for tvos/(ios?) 15/16.. it's just not released yet
Let me rephrase. I wonder why they stopped updating it entirely.
Primarily because of SSV and other security that Apple snuck in
Ahh that makes sense. I’m sure Apple threw a bunch of security in due to checkm8 itself.
If Apple never hired ex-jailbreak devs, then I believe such security wouldn't exist
Fair
I can bet that the head of security slapped 10K on a table and said "first one to stop checkra1n gets the bonus"
What do you mean it’s not released yet?
The team has struggled alongside with their 9-5 jobs trying to circumvent the security in place but haven't fully gotten it working yet. As of testing on the Apple TV, checkra1n works fine but it's not ready to be public
Interesting. I wasn’t aware they were still wanting to support tvOS.
I wonder when that’ll drop. Might as well use palera1n for tvOS once that is released in the meantime.
I have a GoldenEye cable & dscd cable on the way
Very cool
What’s the equivalent of choicy for Apple TV
There is none.
damn
this one stupid fucking app with stupid jailbreak detection
What app?
sky go
motherfucker whats a hacker gonna do if they get in watch all the fucking harry potter movies???
I bet i can bypass it
hackers gonna pirate
yarr
i just need a tvOS bypass
like no hackers gonna hack into the sky go app if they get into my phone via the stupid ass jailbreak
keeping in mind, if choicy was working for ios, i can guarantee you it wouldn't help for the tvos version
why
because tvos apps and ios apps work very differently

since there's not much user content on tvos, the apps use servers
yuh
therefore, using things like choicy to disable daemons won't do anything
it would work by either hiding the files or temporarily disabling kernel read/write to the app
would that hinder any other app functionality?
i mean i know sky go aint gonna be using kernel r/w
because most apps nowadays have functions that write test files to /var to see if the kernel will grant perms
and if it does, it flags it as jailbroken
smart
so what it just attempts to write some temp files to /var and if it works it locks you out
and if it gets some sort of error like unauthorized access it lets you in?
not just that, it also checks for files. so if the kernel can give you access, then it'll look for 'cydia' 'apt' 'dpkg' 'bash' etc
so if it has read access it looks for files/folders with specific names?
Yes, and these names are critical to having such jailbreak functional
well, cydia isn't "critical"
what is essential is apt and it's binaries behind it
primarily files inside of /usr/bin
yea
you said you could bypass it right
is there a tweak that can turn off kernel r/w for specific apps on tvOS?
a perfect example is this:
Ok
As you can see, if 'jailbreaktest.txt' goes through, it returns "TRUE" to the app and flags
That’s what I was thinking
If the file is successfully added it locks you out because scawy baxxor will haxx uu
Is there like
Any command line way to disable kernel r/w for a specific app?
Or just a regular ass tweak
Or like anything
So I can use the stupid ass sky go app
Please
Why does sky need jailbreak detection
Who is hacking into a iPhone to pirate movies and tv shows with sky
It’s easier to just torrent it all
many, many folks
😔
Now how am I going to watch stuff on sky go while jailbroken
On my Apple TV
please
Pretty please
With a cherry on top
And sprinkles
And chocolate
And a scoop of ice cream
Three scoops
In a sundae
With whipped cream
And another scoop in a waffle cone
Chocolate ice cream
2 more scoops of any flavour
With sprinkles, chocolate and whipped cream and a cherry on all of them
furry please
money
🕵️ bypass
just update lmao
the app has jailbreak detection
updating wont change shit
restore then
nothing
i dont want to
i want to have a jailbroken apple tv
and sky go
but sky go
has jailbreak detection
and 0 methods of jailbreak detection bypassing exist on tvOS
even though it is possible to do that
you can have either or
if you don't really have reasons to have it jailbroken, just update
but palera1n tv still isnt out
what do you even use the jailbreak for
downgrading the netflix app because the last version supporting tvOS 13 doesnt work


which would be no problem if you were on latest lmao
you can sideload with sideloadly as well
yeah i do
but im not bothered to refresh the apps every 7 days
ill update when palera1nTV fully releases
anyways
bypass jelbrek detection sky go appel tv
It is, it's just for developers only
(Imho)
i mean like the full public release
It also is
Who
isnt palera1n TV still in development
Sure but it is public
Checkra1n is still beta and is released to the public
why is checkra1n even still beta
Because there's issues
ok
Mind you, nothing's perfect on releases but it's certainly not a candidate for release
k
But yeah, if you're wanting that app to work, it would be in your best interest to remove the jailbreak
I can research for a tweak today but no promises
please do
if i remove the jailbreak will my downgraded netflix stay downgraded
i just realised if i buy a cert then all my needs for a jailbreak are solved by updating
but i dont want to buy a cert
it’ll stay on the latest version that supports your tvOS version
Anybody know of a way I can enable ssh on an Atv without a jb?
Like with misaka file browsing or something
no.
Well, sshrd
Not available rn
That’s only on models with the usb c port right?
yes
no
even with the cables, you need a bootrom exploit to sshrd in to
Gotcha. Ty
For some reason I’m getting the GUI version every time and literally all I’m typing in is Palera1n -f and the GUI pops up I don’t want to use the GUI version can someone help?
Even on my iPad the gui pops up like wtf
I was just messing around with it. I’m running it on Mac, and every time the GUI opens using the latest nightly version. I’ve tried other versions no luck. I just want to use terminal.
try running palera1n instead of palera1n -f
Okay
No go :/
I figured it out
palera1n -f --cli
why are you using rootful
I thought you couldn’t use rootless for Apple TV
This is my first time jailbreaking in Apple TV on 17 I was just following the instructions I seen at the top of the post
palera1n isn't supported on Apple TV yet
Yes, it is for tvOS lol
One of my Bros have already jailbroken their Apple TVs are you fucking fucking with me right now, bro I literally seen it all over Twitter you’re definitely trolling me ain’t you?
We even have a package manager
jailbroken with what?
It’s definitely nightly version only
because as far as I know palera1n doesn't support tvOS yet
that's not released yet
I completely understand that that’s why I’m using the nightly version
it is literally not released
I have a couple people saying it works OK I reverse engineer iPhone apps I just wanted to jailbreak my Apple TV and start developing
It’s released for testing
It’s all good
it is
This worked great for me also thank you !
You can remove jailbreak detection from apps if you know how to reverse engineer, I have removed JB detection from two apps for Apple TV and it’s not real common
Ok
I don’t know how to 
Name 5 apps that have JB detection on Apple TV, that make it unusable
I’ll look into it
Yeah that’s all I have
But it’s very uncommon is the point I’m trying to make
Ok
Can you give used TrollDecrypt and give me the IPA. The application is not in my region.
this is piracy
My bad I did not know I was just wanting to help never heard of the app thought it was free
Ohh okay thank for letting me know
Okay I leave it to you 🙂
Any way I can get AppStore++ deb or the repo because it’s not on cokepokes repo
It's on nitoTV
Okay thank you
Do you have the repo URL by chance?
can you not jailbreak?
I am jailbroken on 17 with Palera1n
It seems like the repo is down for me
What's the error?
I don’t know if this is the right repo, but this is the one I have http://diatr.us/Nito it just says the architecture error or something like that. I would have to double check. I tried it last night.
That's not nitoTV
it's default
delete that
So it looks like I might have to use an older Apple TV
Jailbreak
why? you're already jailbroken?
I’m just trying to find the repo and it’s not default PKG package managers
... huh?
nitoTV's repo is default
that's where appstpre++ is hosted
I’m not using nitro TV package manager. I’m using the new one, so I don’t believe it’s default. I’ve been looking in purePKG
what jailbreak are you using?
For Palera1n 17.4
😂
purepkg isn't a package manager
Oh really I’m new to this my bad so I can install Nitro TV
you can't install it on palera1n as of now
especially on 17
Okay damn I’m a little confused on how to install it is there anyway I can get the repo i’m just trying to obtain the package file without nitro tv package manager
I don’t care if it’s just a DEB file either
I completely understand if you’re busy thank you for helping me out. Looks like I’m gonna have to downgrade one of my Apple TVs. Thanks so much.
you will care if you install it and the whole thing just makes your apple tv reboot
It’s all good bro I got blobs I not worried, thanks for the warning.. yeah it’s most probably not compatible but it doesn’t hurt to try 😂
what apple tv is it?
I have Apple TV HD so I can definitely restore them. It’s no problem.
After all I did get flex 3 working for dopamine, by tinkering with it that’s what I kind of plan to do with the Apple, just for fun
it already works for tvos
On 17.4
My goal is to get it running on 17.4
If we can’t install nitro TV and I don’t have the repo for AppStore++ for the new Palera1n package manager, I’ll just have to downgrade the Apple TV and get the deb that’s my goal
it’s the same type of APT repo so you can add that though I doubt much would work on 17.4
suppose you get the deb and install it on palera1n
I know snowboardTV works but that’s about it
- you will need to resign the deb (or install autosign first)
since the code signature format changed in tvOS 15
That’s not a problem I just trying to get the repo/deb
I’m pretty sure by downgrading the Apple TV, the repo is default in nitro TV package manager
But idk
im pretty sure zenzeq's repo has what you want
Check it already, it’s not there
it's on the github so weird
maybe you can get the deb directly from there
I’ll check the GitHub
lmk if that worked
cuz almost nothing works
Will do
found the issue
the app crashes when "cydiasubstrate" is found
so it checks if substrate exists
for me it doesnt crash, only gives some error about being jailbroken
on the apple tv version that is
on the iOS version it crashes
Just used the cables on my 1st gen 4K Apple TV on tvOS 14.4. Was able to put it into DFU with Checkra1n and Jailbreak. Thanks!

What about it’s a hackintosh running with opencore
Awesome! Glad to know they work.
Do we have any idea when palera1n for tvOS is coming out?
it's out
There was no annoucement made
need to use the nightly binaries but it's out
cause it's technically in "beta"
Got a link?
When did all this get released?
the first compatible binary with tvos was released towards the end of march i believe
the 24th
Nice. So bascially I wanna use the 413/ at the very bottom of the page?
try ctrl clicking it and opening it from that dropdown menu
"This operation could not be completed (OSStatus error -67071)
try xattr -cr ./palera1n-macos-universal
Bruh
"Apple TV 4k is supported, but tvOS 17.4 is not"
Do I dare sleect allow untested tvOS versions in the settings?
Nvm it still wont allow it
Welp I tried
You don't need to use te gui
Not checkra1n
don't use tui
plus nightly is not "out"
Gotcha. I’ll hold out for the official release then.
yo someone found it 🎉
Your lucky I found Jeff he was so kind and let me use his Apple ID & I used trollDecrypt, glad everyone is enjoying it, to bad it was removed from the AppStore and it runs on 17.4 no problems… to bad you can’t sideload it
I also have angry Birds go & South Park pinball table all were removed from the store
really cool but my apple tv hd is on a too new firmware to sideload it
i have 17.0 and 16.x blobs though so how do I downgrade if possible?
Futurerestore
but i would have to use tvos 13.4.8 and i only have the newer remote that isn't compatible
why would you when you have blobs for 17/16?
how do i futurerestore it then
i get the error device apnonce does not match apticket nonce
you have to set the nonce.
put the TV in dfu, enable --use-pwndfu and --set-nonce
then once it's done (provided it has not failed) run the same command but without those two args
it does this when I try to do that even though the shsh is for my apple tv
rip me i dont think i've been saving my blobs right it was 0x(my ecid) not just the ecid copied from itunes
guess i'll just have to wait for palera1n to come out 💀
also 17.2 RC 21K364 is signed apparently
0x and the ecid are both the same
even if you used 0x, it is used as a (null) which just equates to saving the ecid number as-is
maybe you have more than one apple tv?
or perhaps using an ios blob?
i copied my ecid from itunes and pasted it into blobsaver
that would work the same
it turns out different when using 0x though
no, it doesn't
i use 0x all the time. makes no difference
the blob saver also has the ability to save online via tss.. try checking the online sources?
i think it was interpreting my ecid as decimal instead of hex
makes sense since my ecid is all numbers
it would error out if that was the case
ecid DEX is all numbers
it does the number in the blobs name changes from what i pasted in to another number
that would be HEX
which corresponds with dex
so if you saved a HEX key as DEX, it would error
wow how
Jeff purchased it from the App Store along time ago when these games are deleted if you have purchased something they’re not fully deleted you can go in your purchase history and re-download it, and I simply just decrypted it
but its not possible for someone doesnt own it correct?
If you never purchased a game, you cannot download it or re-purchase it from the App Store. It has been deleted from purchasing.
Only accounts that have purchased the game in the past have access
So decrypting does not create a shareable IPA?
it does
Hence primarily why jailbreak detection exists
is anybody gonna share the ipa? I been wanting the apple tv edition for a while but now I dont have a working apple tv 💀 speaking of ownership, I own Minecraft on almost every platform bascially.
What you're asking is piracy
Dont think its always so black and white. Especially for free apps that are no longer on the appstore. This one being gone for almost 6 years. As long as theres no paid dlc included Theres definitely a case for it to be added to the Archive for preservation purposes if nothing else.
Even the devs want people to continue playing on appletv
“Effective Monday September 24th[2017], the Apple TV version of Minecraft will no longer be updated or supported. We're grateful to the Apple TV community for their support but we need to reallocate resources to the platforms that our players use the most. Don't worry though, you can continue to play Minecraft on Apple TV, keep building in your world and your Marketplace purchases (including Minecoins) will continue to be available.
However, we know that this experience isn't in-line with the experience on other platforms so we will be issuing full refunds on all purchases made within the last 90 days. For more information or to check on the status of your refund, please contact Apple Customer Service at [Apple Support website] or [Apple Support number]”
the game costs 12.99
So yeah, it's 100% piracy
even if the game was free and abandoned, redistribution without consent is also piracy
The devs here are just saying you have more than enough rights to continue playing after you've purchased the game but you cannot redistribute the game without payment despite it being unable to be purchased
Again i said if it was free
it being free would make no difference
Im just for preservation. Things getting lost sucks. I get the law
What Apple should do is, instead of getting rid of the game from their store, why not throw it in Arcade?
Agreed
just like mr.jump 😛
Lol dont get me started
I would rather pay monthly to play anything than pay for one thing and have it taken away years later
Yeah but thats digital in general
I love the aspect of despite spending money, you don't 'own' anything
Yah craziness
And I get it, big corps are scared of not making money because you pay once and they have to come out with something new to get you to buy it again so they earn more
but instead, they just lend it to you
it's kind of like that chewing gum commercial I saw.. they made gum last longer, but then ended up shutting down because no-one was buying it anymore (since it lasted so long) which was a joke, but was foreshadowing todays economy
Hah yah that one game exec just said gamers need to get used to not owning their games
So in this logic: I guess.. make the gum expire?
Well even microsoft tried doing such, by making purchased games have a serial identified for only one system with one account.. no more sharing games
but that backfired horribly
Digital licensing are a joke. I'm surprised no-one has made a class action lawsuit on what is 'purchased' to what is 'owned' anymore
Prob because itd total more than the national debt lol
It's totalling more than national debt based on piracy alone
hence why lots of placed can't afford to do it anymore
Pirates gonna pirate. Inflated prices for less material less quality than before lends to piracy. Just make things whole and good again and people will pay(other economic issues aside). I see a zombie like physical media resurgence once it dies for good.
Tactility means something. Ownership means something.
Long for the days when only ____ Tycoon had “expansion packs” after the main release. (Both physical)
Microsoft/Mojang has shafted us with Eula many times so I think its fair for delisted ones to be playable.
Sure, if you bought it prior
This might be dumb to ask knowing how shitty apple as a company is towards repair but are there any schematics available for Apple TV HD motherboard
What's the issue?
I wanted to debug that Ethernet issue
Why not check for shorts to the Ethernet controller
I don't know the values of the capacitors
You don't need to know the values, just check for short to ground
Should I start with the RJ jack itself
Just go backwards from the Ethernet port to the resistors, capacitors then fuse
There's a fuse?
can you circle the compoment
Let's see if you can spot it 
Below the circle is a capacitor
so i am gonna assume the red is fuses
@ionic copper fuses are gone
You removed them?
when testing ground to top of the fuse no contunity
Then there's a short between the fuse to something else
Either that, or the fuse is blown
A fuse needs continuity
yup
Kind of like a one sided hose.. Water goes in but nothing comes out
can i just remove it altogether and just run solder/wire
the side facing the black mosfet i good
You'd have to run a wire to a resistor to replace the function of a fuse
i m guessing the side that goes into the chip is dead
Resistors also balance voltage but you'd need to know what resistor would be adequate for such voltage
Or you'll blow the whole board
make sense
I always thought the fuse will just act like a conductor until load is too much so it burns out
i m thinking of just running solder and moving. I dont plan on doing anything with this apple tv
Actually the capacitor is gone too
no continutiy through it
Check ohms resistance
gone. surpisingly the fuses are ok actually.
The sad fact is that we dont have the number listed on the capactor for replacement. better of buying a replacement apple tv anyways
You could get one that's as is.. Replace said components
I'm sure there's lots of broken apple tv's on the internet
What I'd do is get one that's as is, then swap out the Ethernet port and retest
Yeah. I am seeing just the Apple TV being sold for $30 might as well
Hello! Is there something I can do with a 4k 1st gen on 17.4 and no goldeneye/dcsd cables?
You can stream movies/tv shows and sideload apps wirelessly
That's like trying to find the original genuine iPhone in factory condition
Maybe try thrift stores. I picked up 1st Gen 4K on 14.4. Used goldeneye/dsd cable to jailbreak. Unfortunately, the main app we use (Disney+) is no longer working with 14.4 even with downgrading with appstore++.
there is a potential fix on my repo
Thanks. For some reason I can’t add repos to my 4K. I was able to add your repo to my HD though.
That's because palera1n isn't configured to add proper repos yet. I'm assuming it's on 17?
No, my 4K is on 14.4. Sorry should have clarified. When I try to add your repo nitoTV crashes.
Disregard. Did a respiring and re-added your repo. Installed your fix and I’m up and running. Thank you! 🔥
Ah, that's a common issue with nitoTV. Usually the fix is manually adding them via SSH or downgrading nitoTV but, glad it's all working
Apparently there's issues with content being played despite having the fix applied. Can you confirm?
Any word on palra1n for tvOS?
Got one on 16.6
I’m able to stream movies, tv shows, and animations. I was able to play, fast forward, rewind. Captions and other languages work as well. I did notice there is a half to 1 second black screen delay when you close what you’re streaming but no other issues so far. Using Disney+ version 2.12.4.
@jaunty rune maybe this'll solve your issue?
Thats the version i have. No go. They on 14.x?
I’m on 14.4
Yah with the tweak i still get “in order to use this feature you must update” when trying to play something
Im on 14.2 maybe that somehow makes a difference
After you installed the tweak, did u try a respiring?
I'd jump to 14.4 if you have blobs and try it out
Still WIP
Ill have to check.. but dont think i have any other 14.x blobs
Oof and it's an HD, right?
Yup
Interesting enough my HD that is on tvOS 13.4.5 has Disney+ (version 2.3.5) has always worked without your tweak. I only had this issue on my 4K.
Maybe it's the region?
All my ATV devices are US.
is there a way to get kodi working on atv3? i would get atv2 but its 720p and only those two are in my price range
Just set up another 4K, this one with tvOS 14.2. Installed Disney+ (2.12.4) and installed the tweak with success. Do you have the respring backboard tweak? I had to use that to add zenzeqs repo. The utility respring kept crashing nitoTV when I tried to add the repo.
Honestly you might be best off getting something like Walmart's $20 android tv box
ah i see well its useful to me either way i have nearly all apple devices and i would seriously benefit from airplay those hdmi adapters and android apps don’t cut it sadly
you can get a used Apple TV HD for pretty cheap, I'd just save for one of those then
tbh im getting it for like $13 so its not really a pain ig i might save a little more
folks buying cheap android boxes just to get out of paying for digital content ong
The devs been notified of this. Hopefully a fix comes out soon...
I could tweak nitoTV but it'd be pointless when there's alternatives
they’re usually terrible android tv’s too terrible
you buy cheap, you get cheap
anyways picked up my atv3 gonna jailbreak it
what apple tv 3 is it?
a1469
im not sure how to get kodi working maybe its not even necessary idk
it wouldn't be 'kodi', it'd be xbmc
you're not going to get the latest on there since the device is older than an iphone 4
thats fine
well.. not really seeing as nothing works with it
if it can play video then ill be okay even if its just a fancy airplay machine im sure it’s better than those cheap airplay hdmi sticks
i only paid like $10 for it
not even that would work with it
you'd be lucky to get youtube..
good place to hide your porn
anime porn
maybe idk 
not really, though you can airplay stuff to it
i usually airplay from a mac mini that's right nearby
shitty solution but it works
why not just plug the mac mini into the screen and bypass the apple tv completely?
lmao i accidentally updated it to 8.4.4 💀 supposed to be 7.9 for blackb0x right?
oh okay its 7.9
iOS version and TV Software version are different
Mac mini has iffy HDMI port
I just remote into it
i don't see what the fuss is about netflix and amazon prime both work
and purchased itunes movies
but its not showing up on my devies as a mirrorable screen :(
can i put it to dfu mode using my phone?
atv3? it does not show as a screen on my iphone, ipad or hackintosh
i can use either as a remote tho
you might have to enable it
or activate it
not sure
or sign into itunes store/try to sign into icloud?
i can’t sign into icloud sadly
i did sign into itunes
i might try doing that again
oh okay so it needs to be an airplay 1 device so it wont work with airplay 2 sucks but its okay
Any chance on getting a tweak for Parammount+ for tvOS 14.x? I’ve downgraded to most compatible version (14.0.82). Logged in but app crashes as soon as I try to stream content.
what's the issue with that?
Nvm…your tweak was getting around the upgrade notification to log in. It wont fix streaming actual streaming content.
that's with.. disney or paramount?
Paramount
https://x.com/TranKha50277352/status/1785322136485482646 i wonder if something like this could be ported for tvOS
unsure if im reading right, but seems like u can peristence enabler replace via this on ios?
you’re sandboxed
so sandboxed + no krw isn’t going to exactly get you anywhere
can i enter dfu mode with an aftermarket remote? i can not find an original one
haven’t heard of one that works for dfu

Did you activate it?
yes i used apple configurator to do it
everything works actually
besides netflix but the internet said they dropped airdrop in 2019 or something which is fine netflix on atv3 is functional
im casting my anime and shows from prime disney+ and crunchyroll sometimes youtube
Oh cast works now?
yeah airplay worked once i activated it
No.
Although I think apple should incorporate find my in the remotes since apple tv's have sep..
That would also (unfortunately) introduce activation locks to tvOS as well..
the newer siri remotes kinda have find my
you can locate them in the remote toggle in control center
Do they whistle at you?
Roku has that ability
i found an original one used less than what i was paying an aftermarket one lol if everything goes well i will be jailbreaking it in a few hours
Trying to install Kodi through TrollStore on my 4K, but run into this error.
Use file.io to transfer it
The way of downloading you're using is invalid because it downloads a container of the file and not the file itself.
Success! Thank you good sir! 🔥 tried using Filza’s Webdav server with no success.
got an original remote if anything goes wrong i will ask for help ig
nothing jailbreak like was on my screen and blackb0x shuts down when i connect my apple tv
oh i see kodi now
That battery slot looks worse than a soccer mom
someone probably tried to open it with a hard sharp object and fucked it up
Looks like they skipped using a coin and tried a screwdriver
well ig there isn’t much i can do with kodi that isn’t a pain to set up honestly netflix works and i can airplay disney+ amazon prime and crunchyroll and those are all the things i need
about this how do i set up a local ssd for this and can kodi run .mkv files?
Trying to install screen capture and run into this error on my HD (tvOS 13.4.5). It seems any of the tweaks i try to install gets this error.
That's because Kevin needs to update the SSL certificate on his repo
You can just ssh them in a directory that kodi will see
when i try to connect to the ssh on my mac it asks for a password but i didn’t set up a password
There is a password by default. It's alpine
Thanks. Is this a certificate issue HDs? I was able to install these same tweaks on my 4K with no issues.
i did that is something special supposed to happen i seem to have access to the root but im still not sure on how to send my addons zipped or unzipped there sorry im kinda slow when it comes to things like this
No, just a general server issue
You use the password to send files via scp. WinSCP can help
the password doesn't work 😭
oh okay i was supposed to use root as a username my bad
Does anyone know why misaka doesn’t work on an Apple TV 4k on 16.6?
what part of it doesn't work?
It’s like on an Apple TV HD, it keeps trying until it panics and reboots
oh.. is it kopen?
Yes
4k 1st
like first gen 4k?
it /might/ be possible via sshrd?
do you have the cables/breakout board?
nope
oof... I'd invest in them
then that way you can atleast use palera1n to install trollstore
and skip installing the bootstrap to avoid jailbreak detection
so it is impossible to use misaka right?
at this time, yes
the cables will set you back about 80 bucks, but will install trollstore
or at least; give you the potential to
i see
and is it possible to do a breakout board out of an arduino?
you could.. but it wouldn't be the same
Hello . Can i jailbreak atvHD 17.31 ?
Yes.
Thanks to answer .. How to ? palera1n ?
Yes
It's not your traditional jailbreak though..
I 'm going to check this tomorow, do you know a tuto to folow ?
It doesn't have a package manager
So you won't be able to install tweaks the same
What are you looking to get out of the jailbreak if I may ask?
I want to install ios mod apps because i don't find tvos app
Installing iOS modded apps won't work on tvOS
In past, i had a tweak for it but i need jailbreak.
Another question : do you know a third party library for atv ?
What do you mean by library?
A source to download ipas?
No, that'd be piracy
What app is it you're looking for?
I understand, We cant speak of piracy on this discord server, i search istb for tvos
Yeah, that's a paid app
i understand..
With palera1n can i install deb ?
not entirely
it's not officially released
ok sniff .. very thanks for informations.
ive done it on 4k gen1 16.6
but it takes several attempts
either do that or do binary replacc
seriously??
yeah, got 2 in the house
can’t do cause I don’t have the cables/breakout board
ah yea gotta misaka then
how many more or less?
alright thanks dude
also, sometimes it says failed (Or idr exactly what it says when u try to inject TS)
but then u restart and go check developer/testflight and it works
also, u dont need cables
just do misaka file manager method to replace binary
i was about to sell it because I didn’t want to pay another 80 bucks for the cables
yea kopen and then when it works, connect with iphone misaka
misaka has a built in file manager?
alright I’ll give it a try
just use iphone misaka to connect to ATVs ip address
okay thanks!
np
@heavy patrol it worked! but I tried to install it on both developer and TestFlight and they won’t open
Nvm got it
What method did u do
misaka with the install troll store option
Just had to do several tries right
Binary replace is always an option but its kinda involved
With misaka fm
yep just like you said
I had to do it on my hd and it sucked
yeah I just rebooted, did it again and it went through with the install
Nice
Remember to reinstall misaka via TS this time and enable OTA block
We do have a package manager and it’s not far off from traditional jailbreaks, you can also install modded apps through TrollStore on 17.4
What is the package manager called?
Here is a video tutorial jailbreaking your Apple TV made by me https://youtu.be/e1Vr3ixENQw?si=KuNrT7P9p7PQ_kHD
Download the jb here https://cdn.nickchan.lol/palera1n/artifacts/c-rewrite/main/400/binaries/
1st step cd into downloads folder in terminal
2nd step chmod +x the drag jb file to terminal and hit enter
3rd stepNow do this command xattr -cr drag jb file into terminal hit enter
4th step Now plug Apple TV into pc and type ./Jb -f --cli
5th ste...
I’m pretty sure it’s called. PurePKG it’s pretty buggy, but it gets the job done.
You can also see the package manager in the tutorial
That's not a package manager
What would you call it if it’s not a package manager I mean you can add repos and install package files
Sure but a package manager consists of the ability to install, maintain and initiate a valid bootstrap
Okay good to know
Especially when said package manager contains nothing of essential necessity towards a jailbreak other than installing tweaks
I see, well it’s just nice to be able to install packages hope to see some updates come out soon 🙂
i just got an 2022 Apple TV 4K, does this work with that or is it only for the older Apple TVs?
i know nothing about jailbreaking the Apple TV in general besides running MacOS on the first Apple TV 😭
If you’re on 15.0 - 16.6 you can install trollstore that’s about it but it’s really powerful if you know how to use it correctly
ah ok, so nothing for 17.4 then i assume?
anyway to side load? like altstore for tvOS? i genuinely got no idea 😭
No, there’s nothing out go to eBay buy a brand new Apple TV 4K 3rd sealed in the box. It should be on 16.6 it’s a little gamble, but it paid off for me and it paid off for another friend also
You will have to use Mac and Xcode and connect your Apple TV to Xcode wirelessly then use sideloadly to sideload just google how to connect Apple TV to Xcode wireless there are tutorials out there
eh i don’t wanna buy a whole new apple tv just for a jailbreak. i’d rather wait a million years 😭 plus i got mine brand new for only $80
ah ok
It’s not a jailbreak only trollstore but I definitely understand not wanting to spend cash on a new Apple TV mine only cost like $120 really cheap could not pass it up
Thanks. Will this work on 1st Gen 4Ks with the proper goldeneye/dcsd cables? Also, I thought TrollStore does not work on 17.x? Is this not the for tvOS?
it is, trollstore just installs and doesn't persist after reboot
Hello 😉 , i've a atvHD 16.6 i want to install misaka tvos (5.3). Installation and launch ok but no work (2 method), someone can help ?
sshrd
You have to change the settings around but it definitely works, just play with the settings you will not break nothing, I don’t remember the exact settings I can play with it later, to figure it out
This is a good method also !
inb4 windows user trying to sshrd on live-boot linux
i'am macos user
with xcode on the mac
don't need xcode, but that's also nice
"I can play with it later, to figure it out" thanks
misaka launch try but return to the sringboard
Make sure you have the developer app installed on the Apple TV though the AppStore, and just keep trying
Or TestFlight
I have testflight
mdc not compatible
waiting for misaka to allow us to pick an app without needing one specific one. I've modded misaka to do such but cant redistribute it
hopefully misaka for tvos is OSS
Sounds like you know what you’re doing you should get it in no time! I have installed this on an Apple TV 4K 3rd gen 16.6 & Apple TV HD 15 works great
the best trollstore firmware to be on: 17.0
but likeliness of that with 4k is like winning the lottery
I also have my blobs for 17.0 🙂 and sshrd to install trollstore had to downgrade to for a project I was working on but I going to go back soon
the best thing of HD: you can go from the latest to 13.4.8
but not the new siri remote HD's
Only Apple TV HD tho
must be old black box apple tv 4
On 17.0
so what you could do.. is go to 13.4.8.. jailbreak, install trollinstaller via my repo, restore root fs, then update to 17.0
sounds like a lot of work, but not only will you get trollstore, but updates will be blocked too
Only landa launch other method crash
that's an issue with the exploit on a12/a13?
Ya I done it a couple of times thanks to n0ne on twitter helping me out
i know a8 for kfd doesn't work at all
one mistep: you'll need to install trollstore prior to restore root fs
because if you just install trollinstaller and restore root fs, then it's gone
You can also sshrd into 17.0 using 15.4 boot args
kids thinking "i got trollinstaller!! now i can update" .. tis like Nope! click the one button first
I don't know
oh, no not questioning you.. meaning i think it's with a12 or a13.. can't remember
Console log of misaka says :"Failed to grab free pages goal". I don't understand ?
Could you do all this updating to 17.4? I know it’s not the ideal 17.0 but I have no blobs.
yes but the trollstore app will insta-crash
meaning - exploit will not work
So if I rootfs my HD (13.4.5) or 4K (14.4), update to 17.4, jailbreak with Palera1n using DXs tutorial, install TrollStore through your repo, the app will insta crash?
TrollStore doesn't crash if you're jailbroken but the whole point of it is to persist after rebooting so, after rebooting, it'll crash
Got it. Just need to rejailbreak if the device reboots. Just like when my iPhone (iOS 16.6 bootstrap/serotonin) randomly reboots after charging overnight but my TrollStore apps are still available. Thanks for clarification.
Getting this error on latest palera1n ios
After chmod +x
And palera1n -f -cli
If i do non-cli, i get a ‘terminal must be at least 80x24 error’
Only very first version has ever worked for me. 357 ? iirc
nvm i got it
anything installed with trollstore on anything > 17.0 they won't persist until rejailbroken
Wait are you jailbreaking another device from the iphone or what is this ha
can be done. I've jailbroken an apple tv via ipad
Can I jailbreak my 4th gen Apple TV
Yes
Download the jb here https://cdn.nickchan.lol/palera1n/artifacts/c-rewrite/main/400/binaries/
1st step cd into downloads folder in terminal
2nd step chmod +x the drag jb file to terminal and hit enter
3rd stepNow do this command xattr -cr drag jb file into terminal hit enter
4th step Now plug Apple TV into pc and type ./Jb -f --cli
5th ste...
Ok t🫡😂😂
you need to charge your battery
So a gen1 4k on 17.4 can be jailbroken and or trollstore can be sideloaded and the issue is just persistence?
yes
Nice. Someone with the goldeneye and dcsd should rent them out ha
Ok so i have the misaka and dev app on there.. now what
open misaka
go to settings
install trollstore
select the developer app and click install
Hi ! I've trolstore on atv, but i don't understand how to install apps from url . Someone can explain ?
you upload the app to a file hosting site like file.io
then copy the link and type it out
Thanks i going to test.
what app is it?
I ll test ios app in first, after i'll see.. I had use palera1n video of Dxcool, i've a issue palera1n icon was here first time but now it doesn't show. Do you no why ?
usb issue
Can you explain more ?
sometimes when the usb connection is partial, the exploit works, but uploading the contents doesn't
you just unplug and replug
I'd try . Palera1n icon doesn't be here
Not works too (error 301)
What app is it?
Streamer Tvos from github
It works but you do know that's piracy..
sorry for this
thanks for this
No problem glad I could help
is only build 400 recommended?
I have only tried build 400 so far
Yeah, I haven’t used the Apple TV JB in a while the video is also old, but I thought it would be helpful, everything is the same just use a newer build 🙂
I have tvos 17.2 (21k365) could I jailbreak that
A1625
Apple TV 4th generation can I jailbreak that
@ionic copper
Yes.
You don't need a apple laptop, but at least Linux
Ok
Computer will be required.
You can try but your chances are extremely slim
Just get an Intel computer
Or borrow one
So download this on it
?
Just give me all the steps
@ionic copper i got the laptop
It shows how to do on an apple laptop not on an intel laptop
Do you have it installed?
Also, what tvOS is it?
Yes 17.4
Not on anything higher than 17.0
@ionic copper whst do I do next please
Hence why it's greyed out
Yeah I did its for apple laptop not intel
It's the same thing. Load up Linux live boot
Download the palera1n binary
sudo chmod 0755 /path/to/Palera1n Linux
Yah thought you said only issue on higher than 17.0 was persistance. Guess thats just when jailbroken
Yes. Misaka only installs it on persistence firmwares
If you want it whilst jailbroken, install it via my repo
Right
The 420 one
Yes
Put Linux iso on flash drive
Use etcher to install iso to flash drive
i have a usb
Then plug in flash drive and boot to usb
hello
Did you use etcher to flash the iso?
Google Ubuntu
What about garuda
I already have that on a USB drive
@ionic copper
That's still good right
Ubuntu would be best
