Alright so as of now I’m good and done?
Good, that'll be your first unsigned blob
FileZilla or something?
CyberDuck
Once that dump is secured, keep it close
That's a valid blob
Now you may downgrade via iTunes if you'd like
I’m confused bro dumb it down
Your choice to send the dump over to me
I'll convert dump to blob
So you can go back to 14.2
And yes, 13.4.8 is still signed
As is 10.2.2 as well
13.4.8 tbh
Bet, dm you my file or is here fine?
Dm is safer

Do I need to worry about erasing jb or will downgrading do that? @fleet parcel
Damn I hate feeling like a noob
Downgrading will erase the jb
No need to worry
You may use idevicerestore for Linux
idevicerestore ipsw.ipsw
Already booted windows lol
Oof Gates
Took like 10 minutes lol
I can already hear the Welcome Rick jingle
Linux > windows
Looks like I gotta go back to Linux
Let me try edge first
Got it , had to manually copy and paste the link for some reason
Gotta love how Windows makes you do everything manually
Really is a pain in the ass. I honestly might not use it at all anymore
I only have a vm for tweak testing
Let my laptop fan only runs when I boot windows, heats up with windows , boots slowly...windows
Linux this bitch move like a Mac
Downloads speeds even somehow shittier on windows
Usually that means lots of dirt, viruses or porn
Dirt
Need to get a good vacuum
A can of air would like to have a word with you
If it's a laptop, invest in an SSD.. Performance go brrrrrrrrr
Uncle Sammy
It was either that or WD
Alr download done, just connect and manually select?
Nvm got it
Alr to jb it’s still checky check right?
nControl, you'd need a controller
What kind of stuff Can you do with a jailbroken Apple TV
@spiral elm develop stuff instead of using a mac maybe?
did anyone ever port checkra1n to ios so you can boot one device off another?
Yes/no, also not a tvOS Q
Ok thanks Sam always thought it would be like free tv and stuff wasn’t planning on jailbreaking it though lol
It’s to free the device so you can do what you want with it - it won’t give you free tv though that’s probably not legal lol
haha
a *OS device without a jailbreak is like a bed without pillows
yeh it works but its not pleasant
or a TV without a couch
haha yes couch or bed for sure.
Yeah I know but people still do it if it’s there I talking like free streaming apps not cracks lol
@torn spade there are like kodi and emulators to
getting proper AirDrop functionality alone makes teh jailbreak worth it
because at this point there are cross platform implementations of that, that work just fine
so u dont even need apple devices to enjoy it
im a fan of those control center tweaks, i use it often to connect airpods to apple tv quick
yes those are helpful and easy too, i use the bluetooth one alot
and im not trying to be a shameless self promotor here. im happy if anyone finds my work useful
Right but you don’t need to be jailbroken to load kodi 🤷♂️
True true
14.4 Jailbreak?
checkra1n
For tv Os?
yes
options -> allow untested versions
14.4 is confirmed to work just not updated by checkra1n team yet
Hmm.... dat means i can jailbreak without concerns that my apple tv get broken?
Yes
It would work just fine
I wish there was some easy solution like this for the Apple TV 4K
yes, you can always restore an Apple TV 4 anyway and jailbreak on the latest version even if you bootloop it somehow
I installed, it works fine, but the nito app dont starts
have i another alternative to install Kodi on the jailbroken apple tv?
if you lose access to my help i have my own discord server just fyi. some loser commie mod despises me so they erroneously warn me any chance they get.
@fleet parcel can lead u in the right dir if necessary
@urban matrix i havent had a chance to read this whole backlog yet but it sounds like you may need to ssh in to fix whatever issues to pull the latest nitoTV if it isnt launching
HCj4v638
@desert hawk please don't post server invites without asking for permission first
rule 4
advertising = ban
Dumb rule
true
🙄
youll ban me any chance you get
bro i literally had the chance and i didn't but go off
and if i ask u for permission i doubt youll give it
Yes, the link nitoTV tried providing is a link to learn how to code and make great things for the tv...
that's why i didn't ban or warn
cuz you hate me cuz you erroneously think im a transphobe
eveenthough ive NEVER said anything even remotely transphobic
i didnt deliberately and if a person has preferences the best theyt are getting from me is calling them by their nickname
i made that crystal clear
then accept that's not welcome here
i have 0 tolerance for people who don't respect other's identities
so i lose the ability to support my customers and users because i wont keep track of peoples preferred pronouns? that is the most batshit crazy thing ive ever heard ind my entire life
that isnt me not accepting shit
go support your customers and users in your own server if you don't like the rules here
its me not wasting space in my brain on shit t hat hsa zero relevance to me. im not hurting anyone by calling them by their nickname
we have no obligation to support your products
if you don't respect our users then you don't get to be here
this place was much better before a power hungry nutcase like u got a modicum of power
lol and i never heafd of you until u warned me

what exactly are your contributions to the jailbreak community again?
okay so you have actually done something, i had no idea.
thats good to hear at least
i didn't know who you were before a few weeks either dw lol
on a scale from 1 to care, dont.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
and i tried to give an invite link but some goosestepping nutcase told me i needed to ask for permission
it's in the rules
you just make assumptions
i'm sure you'll remember next time
sorry i dont read the rules daily i haev actual work to do
i didn't even warn you so i don't know why ur complaining
im not complaining
i'm just telling you the rules
im commenting
Can we stop?
we can
why was i pinged
not sure
Is tvOS 13.4.8 jailbreakable?
yes, with checkra1n
@flat sorrel check out the pinned messages. quite a bit that is hard to summarize
this slightly out of date faq is a good starting place
my personal favorite is AirDrop parity with the rest of the *OS ecosystem

@desert hawk do you remember that problem I had with provenance? That when I pressed B on the controller it closed the app, As I remember an update was supposed to be released, idk if that happened because a bit of time has passed, but the problem is still there
@atomic snow i actually have not gotten around to updating any packages yet, sorry
Is it possible to add cores to retro arch on Apple TV?
Yes
Is it as simple as downloading the core and transferring to a corresponding folder?
Which retroarch are you using?
It’s only 1 for Apple TV right?
LMAO
Rip
he was doing a little trolling

Slurs of privacy?
@ionic oar adding cores is tricky because its very picky about codesigning, i need to do a lot of updates in that area on tvOS (emus etc)
is there a core in particular u are focused on?
Dolphin primarily
ricks busy downloading 5gb roms
is there even a working dolphin core for RA?
i know they just HAD to make a separate app for literally no good reason (which is why i drew the line building, testing and adding dolphin to my repo)
if you want dolphin, free willy
lol
yep and dolphiniOS is another trainwreck written in swift and provenance push me beyond my limits on that
there literally wasnt one single good reason they made their own separate app, not one.
DolphiniOS works pretty well, it's got plenty of features and if I didn't know it was a port I'd think it was actual dolphin for iOS
¯_(ツ)_/¯
i still have zero interest in working with something that still had zero legit reasons to be its own app
if they had the good sense to write it in a real programming language id have been more amenable.
how can i jailbrake my apple tv withput the apple remote on chekrain
or is there another jailbrake for tvos 14.4
not possible
find/buy one
arent ythere other jailbrakes
depends what version
and what device of course
just wait a bit longer, don't update
@rotund gulch unc0ver should work for that version. also the cheaper silver remote works for dfu as well
as another option if u are just trying to avoid replacing pricier siri remote
but it MUST be the silver or siri remote. the old white one is missing one of the required buttons
oh yeh doing reset all settings is a TERRIBLE idea if you havent done a restore rootfs first
@fleet parcel yeh ive heard the word recently, some peeps were asking me about it on my discord server earlier today
tnx for the heads up either way 🙂
@fleet parcel hearing it might not actually work, have u verified it?
it doesn't
it dies during prep
i think whilst it prepares the update, it checks apples servers.. and since apple is probably scrambling to fix it, they've shut it down @desert hawk
@fleet parcel ah, i wouldnt be surprised
Reva
In other retroarch news yoshi seemed to imply hed try bringing blastem to ios! Genesis softpatching ftw!
Plus am i just misremembering.. there used to be a working dolphin core right?
wish i was any good at the emu stuff id bring dolphin to retroarch to avoid further pointless splintering
not that i have the spare time anyway 🤷♂️
lol my dude doc brown
Hi, I am getting -31 error when jailbreaking with checkra1n, how do I fix this?
I am on tvOS 13.4.6 if I am not mistaking
i dont remember what that particular error means offhand will have to poke at the source to remember
Is your OS updated and are you using the latest Checkra1n?
Use checkra1n 10.2
Thanks
possibly, but theres a good chance you be underwhelmed & find snd result ostensibly useless
the fact nitoTV still mostly works is miraculous. but i dont actively maintain, update or troubleshoot the software/repo.
Oh wait. Can the 90day delay be used with the atv4k to install a jb-able firmware?
I think the most useful thing the atv3 can do is plex through the trailers app hack
@lapis heath im not sure if anyone has done it successfully, also every fw is jailbreakable for life with checkra1n
Yeah but opening an app after a power outage is easier than checkra1n
granted. but u dont have to wait for a jailbreak for each update which is always more important imo
any time i can avoid apples hatred for their customers by aggressively forced updates that take away the ONLY thing that makes their ecosytem worthwhile (jailbreaks) i jump on it with both feet
possibly...
but dangerous
So at worst case you end up on the latest
or.. bootlooped
yeh i think the bootloop is def a real danger
Hi, I’m having a bit of an issue with my 4K, I’m trying to update it to the latest os but after unjailbreaking and erasing it says I’m on the latest (13.4.5) and now when I jailbreak again with the latest checkra1n I just hang at a white screen, anyone know how I can fix both of them issues? 😩
@silk shadow been diagnosing a similar problem with another user. did u have unc0ver installed before? i think their update blocking might be sticking around
Yeah, I’m currently reinstalling a Mac vm to install unc0ver again so I’ll test that, I’d of thought restoring rootfs would of removed that?
yeh i thought so too but after two reports of identical issues im less certain
Once my vm has finally installed and I’ve signed the ipa to the Apple TV, I’ll report back with the results, it’s just taking ages to install 😂
So after a lot of pissing about with the vm not installing, Xcode not finding my Apple TV then not setting it up properly, I’ve finally managed to sort it, install unc0ver and remove the update block, it’s finally updating to 14.4! 🙌🏻
👍
does anyone have a good free jailbreaking app for apple tv 3 7.6.2
all jailbreaks are free and no
youd only be disappointed. any appletv before the 4th is 100% useless jailbroken or not.
not entirely, it's great as a network hard drive
is it worth buying apple tv 4th?
yes
i stand corrected 👍
i mean a really tiny network hard drive
yeh 8 gigs isnt going very far. they cheaped out on those worse than i remembered 🤣
if the third gen had gotten jailbroken when it still mattered maybe things would be different about how useful it could be.
apparently the third gen supports more than i still realized tho
didnt realize some of the appletv+ stuff still works.
unfortunately, yeah but I'm still curious why memory was even added in the first place when it was primarily streaming..? I think it was for offline content too perhaps?
@fleet parcel the software still needs space, streaming & caching are the rest of the reasons
okay, thanks
@fleet parcel so that leaves u another 4 for cache and swap space, which is barely enough
Still no way to install an IPA file on an Apple TV 4k without a Mac?
Unless I want to enroll it into enterprise management
just use a virtual machine
I think I might try MicroMDM and enroll my Apple TV into that
What about on tvOS
that should be a rule: never pay to sideload apps
Pays for a Developer account
yes, I've done it on tvOS
micromdm?
not that specifically, but MDM
Well I want to set it up with something that isn't hosted outside of my network
@somber ivy do you have an intel pc?
I have a hackintosh
you can use that to sideload apps
Issue is I have to swap GPUs and remove a network card
why tf you payin' for a dev account
So I can sign my dev apps
as long as you pair the 4K with Xcode on your hackintosh, you're good
And not have to resign every 7 days
you don't need to resign every 7 days
just put the device to sleep
it stays jailbroken
I'm not jailbroken 😦
get a paid dev acc 
actually I wonder if Impactor works with GoldenEye... haven't tried yet
or the AltStore beta
I have a paid Dev account 😛
Camera is weird
oh I didn't read the whole conversation
just saw the thing about 7 days
it is doubtful that GE works with impactor. it doesnt see the device in userland mode by default. @analog elk
i had to brick an appletv to find out some pf these details many moons ago
#sandNandGang lol
I mean Ubuntu shows "Documents on Apple TV" when I plug it in ¯_(ツ)_/¯
yes i literally took sand paper to a nand. then bootlooped another 4k by changing iboot->ibrok on LLB
lol
thats interesting
maybe the DCSD helps, don't remember if it works with just GE
it shouldnt
because i had a DCSD b4 my GE and had both togethrr for a whike
altho my first GE was so old it was a early prototype missing crucial stuff in it
but either way tje ONLY value DCSD brings is magically helping DFU occur when plugged in a certain way
as far as tvOS is concerned
GE + lightning = userland access, GE + DCSD = DFU
@cyan veldt that isnt the case for me, ive never seen userland access work at all
hmmm ill have to check again. maybe i never checked with my newer goldeneyes. cuz i had an original one that was literally incomplete, may have been original prototype
and i mat have even already done this and forgot 🤣
my pc wont recognize my apple tv 4
tried multiple pcs/laptops and cables
but it wont work
my tv is on 14.4
I have a Mac
Upgrading to 14.4 now and I’ll look into jailbreaking later
I really want the Kodi app
@analog elk you can do so on any tvOS version
That’s what I figured but only with Checkra1n?
With any/all jailbreaks
there's no jailbreak that doesn't allow any apps to not work
when netflix only works while jailbroken😎
when your mom works while jailbroken
when ur mom dies while jailbroken
lol
speech: 999
Can someone tell me why bootrain/checkra1n doesnt detect my apple tv to jailbreak it :/
if you're on tvOS 14, use checkn1x
I would jailbreak if there was an app to make my updates work properly 😂
Anybody have steam link workin?
wdym?
Keeps crashing on me when connecting
They don’t auto-update and it is a pain to check for manual updates
what doesn't auto-update? the apps?
I bet the new ATV4K will come with 14.5
That’s why
And it’s A12
So checkm8 doesn’t work
You’re mad dumb if you think taurine will be ported
u say that and its gonna happen watch
hop over to fr lol
ima buy one just to see if it gets jb
Gotta fake study
super interesting stuff
me rn
best way for me to start working is waste a K on ipad m1
When Apple TV 4K upgrades to A12 tvOS checkra1n jailbreaks are essentially screwed right?
yes lol
welp
a11 and below is checkm8
I have the HD version anyway
That new Apple TV may not be fun for jail breaking but that new remote is a God-send
And oh yeah I’m alive lol
I'm sure the new remote will be usable on current atv
it's kinda painful to use at times
But that new one will be so much better
the new apple tv 4k offers literally nothing better besides the refreshed cpu right?
what a shame but at least they're priced the same
oh well and wifi 6 it seems
already over specced as it was, what else would they add?
The normal HD was literally running A9
It def needed an update
A8*
they're still selling it with an updated remote though
imagine if they replaced the chip with an A8Z that patched checkm8 
Just curious does that new remote require tvOS 14.5 or later to control the 1st gen 4k box? It's not worth it for me to kill my 4k's running on 13.4.5 unc0ver just for the remote. While the speed of the new box is nice, the specs are far ahead of anything I would need now so I am going to keep what I have.
well, mine is already on 14.5 anyway
so if it's compatible with the 1st gen one at all I might get the new remote
Lol so nothing really intriguing except the slight remote refresh.. and thats $60??
@jaunty rune They will sell a lot, no one likes the old remote 
Neither do i but def not worth 60$ to me. Though i guess the old remote is $60 too? Jesus apple
The scroll wheel will be nostalgic though
Definitely getting that new remote! So glad they’re selling that separately
Also sorry for the absence lately. Ya boi has been busy with work and all.
Definitely need to get the ball rolling on tweak making again.
watch it not work for HD...
I have a 4K now
And it said its compatible according to the Apple Store app so who knows
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Lol 😂
gunna love how the SEP will be incompatible with anything lower than 14.5...
just to pair the remote
I know RIP
disappointed of this Apple TV release.. they had 4 years and all they did was add a new processor and make the remote into an updated terminator
i was expecting a Find My Remote function or a thunderbolt port and drop hdmi
Apple just doesn’t care as much for the tv as they should
But I have to agree with ya on that
i wonder if Apple will finally release ipsws for it.. that's a long shot of a guess but they should do something about potential bootlooped users. It's just a waste of money imo
having to send out for repair, then reimburse with a new device...
Who knows Apple being Apple like always
Welp, one can hope until 2030 when A12 gets a bootrom exploit 🤞
Usually how it works lol 😂
🙏
One can hope
@umbral ingot I think what Apple should do: is allow augmented reality on their website.
By this; I mean will allow us to view their products in this 3D-type environment to get the full spectrum of how the product(s) would look on all angles to the consumer
because all they show is just a 2D picture with arrows
but if we can move the mouse/tilt and see the previews as we would in our hands.. that'd be a whole new experience
Don't they already have that though...?
have what..?
AR on Apple's website
“I wonder if Apple will add IPSWs”
They’re literally useless even if they release them for this new tv
They were smart to make this A12
I know they have AR things for the iPhone 12 and the new Apple TV and "all new" remote, I just tried both of those
Checkm8 can’t be used
not entirely true, if there's a new bootrom exploit discovered...
lol
Bro
Checkm8 was the first we got in 5/6 years at the time
What makes you thing one will suddenly come
It’s not like they’re rare, but they’re sold 90% of the time@
not saying it'll "suddenly" come.. but it /may/ come in the future
I am glad they didn't put a14 tho
The chances of something like it coming out are low
It’s pretty much unjailbreakable when it comes out
Right?
maybe 14.5.. maybe lower? even by then I'm sure 14.5 will have an exploit sometime before WWDC
I calculated the amount of time
It took
For a jailbreak to come out
After the version is out
you can't calculate that
calculating that is like knowing when an earthquake will occur next
Although the number is very, very misleading as what makes the number lower than 100 somethings
Is Checkra1n
Remove that and the average is something like 150
there could be someone right now -as we type- currently researching and/or testing out a bug
The safari one?

WAIT
If there’s a WebKit exploit
And I put safari using Xcode
not necessarily, but something discovered that wasn't announced
Can I use that exploit
huh?

And for the ATV I download safari using Xcode
Can I go to the jailbreakme website
nah
unless jailbreakme was updated to work with apple tv's infrastructure...
Which it won’t
I hate being negative so much
But tbh w jailbreaks in general
And especially TV ones
you also have to bear in mind; that since webkit isn't /fully/ native to tvOS.. running an off-app wouldn't work, especially in a sandboxed state
You have to be
HOLD ON
If someone finds an exploit
And it uses an app like notes
What happens if you run it
On the tv
wdym
i think you should make a date with Google first

that emoji should be banned imo
nsfw
no
Anyone able to connect in steam link? Crashes for me
Works for me
@ionic oar you on 14 with checkra1n?
Yah no go. Dang
I'll see what's up
@fleet parcel thanks
Apple TV Remote icon changed in 14.6 beta 1
thats a nice icon
Is there really any point in jail breaking the Apple TV at this time? Other then Provenance and Kodi?
Kodi🤮

Why jailbreak an Apple TV?
Tweaks and features such as: AirMagic, DalesDeadBug, AppStore++, nControl, TVControlCenter (13+ only), emulators, multimedia, AirDrop, code execution... and that's just the tip of the iceberg.
SnowBoardTV (theming for tvOS), fun stuff like HarlemShakeTV, DOOM, Quake, custom respring animations/wallpapers/screensavers (among other cool ideas) have been introduced as well.
Welp phones full, time to finally update to 14
and I want your mom but that ain't gunna happen anytime soon now is it
@fleet parcel since u have @nimble wadi’s mom whatll it take for a peacock bypass? Lol
I kid but hey workin on anything cool at the moment?
https://tenor.com/view/tommy-boy-comedy-chris-farley-stressed-upset-gif-15396052
@fleet parcel
Lol sooo i should stay on 13
tvOS 13?
Hah naw ios
Saw ur comment in genius bar
Wanted to do a clean install figured id go to 14 but tommy boy compels me not to
@fleet parcel so ud suggest just staying on ios 13? Dont care about 14 just wanted to clean out phone
Any specific reasons?
Ah wait guess you can in itunes?
So restoring in recovery mode (without updating) isnt a thing
no
Guessing thats only for signed firmwares? Or just bs/outdated
Lol for sure figured i shouldnt trust general guides online
Though i have blobs so that would save me right
Can you go from 14 to 13 with blobs?
no
Yah glad i didnt update then
And thats a sep thing?
Sorry for the many questions hah
yes
Last thing any reason to switch from checkn1x to odysseyn1x?
unless you like silly-o
Odysseyra1n is a modification for checkra1n which replaces the bootstrap with Procursus, the package manager with Sileo and the tweak injector with libhooker. This has benefits such as speed, battery life and security.
Tutorials:
macOS/Linux
Windows
A11 Devices:
If you are on iOS 14 and using Windows you must flash Odysseyn1x 2.8 or you will get an error. macOS and Linux users should install checkra1n 0.12.1.
if you prefer cydia.. no need to switch
Meh no allegiance.. ill just stick with it. Anyway back to tvos
Thanks
Oh yah any ideas on my steam link issue?
have people been using kodi 19 or 17 these days
17 hasnt caused any problems for me so im cautious about updating
also does anyone know how to check the storage space left on my TV? dont think the settings app includes jailbroken stuff and i think kodi takes a decent amount of space
@foggy gull ssh into tv and run df -h to check space. Kodi 19 working for me but not 100% sure if everything works correctly
i feel like theres not too much thats different between the two in terms of user experience
maybe over time itll be necessary
thanks for the command @jaunty rune
Np
if you mean the bootable USB, neither force you to install odysseyra1n, but odysseyn1x has a fancier/easier to use menu
@analog elk interesting ill look into it thanks

Now I really want to jailbrwak my Apple TV 4K
Since I want to investigate how they are doing color calibration and if I could apply my own color profile
@fleet parcel if you get a device with 14.5 jail broken can you calibrate it and figure out where it stores the calibration
I don't think it'd be a color pallet to pick and choose from, but an array of yes/no that's transmitted
It might be a standard color profile that it saves
@fleet parcel why
?
Intrigued
Has anyone released any Alexa tweaks for TVOS? I know HomePod handles that stuff for Apple products but would be cool to have atv work with Alexa.
You mean.. Siri? Alexa is Amazon bruh
That’s why I’m saying a tweak for Amazon. Siri works fine but for people without a HomePod it would be cool to have Alexa integrated to atv. At least to turn it off with an echo.
Checkra1n okay for tvOS 14.5?
yup
finally jailbroke my ATV4K on 14.5 after months of waiting...

14.6 works too
I get a "restore_error_code: general error" on 14.4 4k when trying to restore rootfs
What should I be doing?
reboot, re-jb, try again?
trying to update from 14.4 to 14.5
stay on 14.4
ik, would consider jumping on the betas but not sure I want to restore rootfs every two weeks, unless I see some really cool feature
(mainly on my X rather than the ATV but why not both if it works... I'll just downgrade my X once a new semi-untether for a lower version comes out)
what was the tweak for screenshot/screenrecord CC toggle
Addilynne
It probably needs to be updated for 14.5
yeah, still needs to be fixed
ugh, Addilynne interferes with triple press menu button for accessibility shortcut
anyone have an atv2/3 with kodi installed?
I do
all jbs do
on what?
Your atv
It don’t matter
why would you need that when theres neofetch

who said that?
Hmm
@fleet parcel was just wondering if the debs for whitelist and updatebegone were in your apt archives still (/var/cache/apt/archives), might be easier to grab from there than from the repo
i can probably get updatebegone but don't know if it works for 2/3
the party script does have update nags killed
it's a dependency for the atv2 kodi so i'd assume so
if kodi is installed on your atv3 then I think both debs would be in there somewhere
do you still get ssl errors?
lemme check
because it /should/ work
still sslhanshake errors
do you have wget?
yeah
it retrieves updates from saurik and kodi repos
just fails on the awkwardtv ones
wget https://apt.awkwardtv.org/pool/main/org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2_13.2-0_iphoneos-arm.deb && dpkg -i ./org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2_13.2-0_iphoneos-arm.deb
that should install xbmc/kodi

I sent you a dm
@fleet parcel can you help me jailbreak my Apple TV
14.3
use checkra1n
you need goldeneye cable and dcsd
Is there a different way
yeah, breakout board
Because installing the cable and the other thing is a lot of work
Do you know how to use Xcode
Ok
is there a tvOS method of OTA updating to a version of tvOS that went unsigned recently?
tvOS 12.2+ supports delayed OTA profiles, you should be able to add a profile via URL
you would need to supervise the device first though
either supervise it with Apple Configurator 2 which will wipe it, or edit a file manually over SSH
/var/containers/Shared/SystemGroup/systemgroup.com.apple.configurationprofiles/Library/ConfigurationProfiles/CloudConfigurationDetails.plist
change IsSupervised to true and then do killall -9 profiled; killall -9 Preferences
if you don't have an add profile section, go to Share Apple TV Analytics -> Send to Apple and press the play button on the remote
then you can paste in a URL using the iPhone remote app
@somber ivy I found the color calibration files
/var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.tvlatency/ColorCalibrations/
Anyone know if kodi matrix will passthrough atmos on 4katv
Is there a repro to get Reprovision Reborn for tvOS or does it not exist? I see this...
https://github.com/sohsatoh/ReProvision-Reborn/tree/master/tvOS
what tvOS version?
13.4.5 u0
should be able to use [[reprovisionfix]] then, I updated the package in the repo to allow tvOS
confirmed that it installs fine at least, but I'm on 14.5 so ReProvision itself doesn't work for me
So https://repo.cadoth.net/ can be added to sources under Nito?
yes
seems like it still shows the other tweaks, but it will say "no package matching glob" for OTAEnabler and NoSBReload - but ReProvisionFIx installs fine now
@analog elk Is the install instruction the same as for iOS?
- Install the tweak
- Open ReProvision
- Revoke all certificates
- Resign your apps
yes
k thx
@fleet parcel would you be able to make a jb detection bypass for a tvOS app if I found a working bypass for the iOS version?
keeping in mind @frigid moat that tvOS operates differently in terms of bypassing compared to iOS
oh really 🤔
yes, meaning that since most bypasses check for files installed.. tvOS checks if you can connect to any Cydia URLs
I tried everything on this spreadsheet and only choicy worked for iOS https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10IaThZbirArGTUXdJ-HMVTFz6PD_zSXOK2MSS2Y7Bx4/edit#gid=0
Sheet1
App,Bypass,Repo
7-Eleven Fuel,Liberty Lite Beta,https://ryleyangus.com/repo/
8 Ball Pool,Liberty Lite Beta,https://ryleyangus.com/repo/
AASTOCKS,FlyJB,https://repo.xsf1re...
Just with this setting, even though others advertise the same functionality
and i think choicy is closed-source

actually... u0 TV has the same method
idk what the difference is between that ^ in choicy and using unsub, but unsub definitely doesn't work
you can disable tweak injection via substitute app
i do also have kernbypass /somewhat/ working..
i couldn't get ahh... vnodebypass to do anything on iOS, is that checkra1n only?
tvOS ABC iView works with injection disabled 
cool
@fleet parcel Oh hey, looks like choicy is open source https://github.com/opa334/Choicy
Any tweak for tvOS that opens up Audio Sharing to Non-Apple headphones?
Oo cant wait til if and when u get it going. Need that peacock bypass
Dont suppose this would help you any? https://www.reddit.com/r/jailbreak/comments/ir88xu/tutorial_bypass_jailbreak_detection_in_a_majority/?utm_source=amp&utm_medium=&utm_content=post_body
This is what got it going on ios for me
How install Unc0ver in Apple TV 4K without pc ?
Stop being lazy and install it legit
only way without a computer is MDM
but that would require either a Mac (at which point just use Xcode wireless pairing) or a paid developer account
Or buy a signing service
yep that relies on MDM too
but not sure if there's any non-piracy ones for tvOS
Australia?
yep
Lol
hmm? 🤔
I only knew it was from Australia because I live in Australia
Hello, is it possible to use vpn on apple tv4
yes
Hey I've been having getting USB error -77 when trying to jailbreak an Apple TV 4 running tvOS 14.4, checkra1n 0.12.3. I've tried to use a USB-C male to Lightning female adapter but that doesn't seem to work either
I'm running ElementaryOS 5.1 on Linux Kernel 5.3 if that helps
so the adapter arrived?
Yea but the Apple TV doesn't show up in lsusb when using the adapter
regular USB-C cable shows it's in DFU mode
have you tried the CLI?
i didnt know where to even find the GUI through their site
for... linux?
there is no GUI for linux
but.. you can do sudo checkra1n -c
also if you're on 14.4.. you need not use 12.3, but you can use 12.2
alright
also there is a GUI on linux, i just realized you have to supply the -g arg. doh
meh cli > gui
that may be true but it still doesn't fix my problem
im gonna try 12.2 after this
@analog elk i tried a couple of lightning cables but they didnt work so im inclined to think either the adpater method may not work or the adapters I bought suck
wtf, there's definitely a GUI on linux
I saw you bought it off amazon, can you DM me the link?
whats up
it says it's not a data adapter
"WARM TIPS before buy:
- This product can only be used for charging.
- This adapter does NOT support OTG which means it cannot deliver video/audio signal. No sound will come out even you connect a Lightning earphone/earbud.
- Please don't use it with quick charger in case of heat during charging."
no problem, I had a feeling it may have not been data adapter
what do you need an adapter for?
are there any specs i need to be looking out for?
apple tv 4
but why
cause I get a usb error -77 when trying to jailbreak
are you using usb-c?
yes
have you tried cli?
not yet but this was the log in stderr when running GUI
use 12.2
alright lemme try
sudo apt-get install checkra1n=0.12.2
@vast helm if the apple tv is booting and you've got checkra1n in the control center, then it should be fine
hold down the TV button upon booting and look for the checkra1n button
from there, you'll enter the loader and install the bootstrap
nope still getting -77
should i be holding the tb button as soon as I see Booting in stdout?
no
when the tv screen lights up
and you see your app icons
then summon the CC by holding the TV button
are you saying I'm getting the error -77 because I'm not doing that step?
Yeah then the issue would be the adapter as @analog elk said
it's just that error is normally ignored if checkra1n is presented on the device
is checkra1n in your control center?
no
it won't work until he gets an adaptor because checkra1n doesn't work with USB-C cables
huh? usb-c to usb-a? or usb-c to usb-c?
Would the new apple tv 4k jailbreak with Taurine since it has an A12 chip maybe?
it will probably come with iOS 14.5 so not yet, but probably only u0 will support it because there isn't an OdysseyTV or TaurineTV in the first place
Yeah I agree with the firmware but in the future if the devs of Taurine can port it to apple tv 4k, we wouldn’t have to get one of those special boards.
Imagine the new Apple TV coming with 14.3
Heya- I’m considering purchasing an apple tv, but I’m not sure if I want to get a jailbreakable one or the new one.
What are the benefits of jailbreaking an ATV?
don't get the new one
get the HD
as for beneficiaries...
!t whyjbtv
Why jailbreak an Apple TV?
Tweaks and features such as: AirMagic, DalesDeadBug, AppStore++, nControl, TVControlCenter (13+ only), emulators, multimedia, AirDrop, code execution... and that's just the tip of the iceberg.
SnowBoardTV (theming for tvOS), fun stuff like HarlemShakeTV, DOOM, Quake, custom respring animations/wallpapers/screensavers (among other cool ideas) have been introduced as well.
Just a generic atv 4k?
not 4K, but the gen lower
the HD has been around for years
you can literally go to any electronics store to pick one up
Weird Jb Hi-Fi (Aussie store) is saying coming soon. Maybe I'll call up and double check.
it is 'coming soon' because it's the model released with the new remote
if you go for just the HD box.. it'll be there with the black remote
Oh that makes sense didn’t notice that on my way to pick one up now
So let me get this straight the only difference between the HD in the 4K is the resolution output
The HD has a USB port or the 4K has a USB port
4K has none
And I can use check rain on the HD right
yes
Sweet just got it on my way home now I assume is the same as any other check rain device
yes
Hey I
I've been trying to jailbreak an apple tv 4 (non-HD) running on tvOS 14.4 with no luck
Do I need to use a USB-C (male) to lightning (female) adapter or something?
Checkra1n is saying ATV4 is not supported?
what tvos is it on
14.4
use checkra1n 12.3
Okay sweet
Usb-c to usb-a works for me. Also as JTV just told me try 12.3
I've been trying 12.3 and what happens is it goes through the boot sequence then gives me a USB error -77
I didn't realize i could use USB-C to USB-A, I thought it was only USB-C to lightning
I’m not sure then
I've been using USB-C to USB-A, can you recommend me a cable that you use?
Alrighty, trying to watch some movies on the ATV4 and I’m getting stuttering galore. Looked online and apparently its an ATV issue.
Is there any fix?
