Factory reset a jailbroken ipad, now RootFS won’t work

[pseudo lintel]

as title suggests, had an iPad7, 11 running iOS 14.2, been battery dead for a while, and factory reset it hoping i could update it. now any jailbreaking process fails at 28/32. any help would be appreciated (using latest unc0ver btw)

is that an A10 ipad?

if so try using checkra1n to restore rootfs

!t rootfs

rootfs

To revert the jailbreak on your device, follow the steps below.

unc0ver
Reboot the device then open unc0ver. Tap the gear icon and enable the "Restore RootFS" toggle, then tap "Restore RootFS" at the main screen.

Chimera / Odyssey/ Taurine
Reboot, open Chimera/Odyssey/Taurine, toggle on "Restore RootFS", then tap "Jailbreak".

checkra1n / Odysseyra1n
Open the checkra1n app on your home screen and tap "Restore System". If the icon has disappeared or you get "Restore Error: General", reboot and re-jailbreak.

If the above methods didn't work, see /tag rootfscli for more options.

If you're unable to restore rootfs the normal way, you can do it from a terminal (e.g. NewTerm or SSH).

If your device terminal prompts you a password, its gonna be alpine

unc0ver
Install Snappy from your package manager, then open a terminal and type su root -c 'snappy -o', then reboot.

Odyssey / Taurine
Open a terminal and type these commands:

sudo snaputil -n orig-fs $(snaputil -o) /

checkra1n / odysseyra1n
Open a terminal and type su root -c '/binpack/usr/bin/snappy -o', then reboot.

With checkra1n 0.12.3 or above, you can also restore rootfs from your computer:

• macOS: /Applications/checkra1n.app/Contents/MacOS/checkra1n --force-revert
• Linux: sudo checkra1n --force-revert
• Odysseyn1x: Go to Shell and type checkra1n --force-revert
