Current status of Cydia Substrate for iOS 8.3

ios9-jailbreak

When we learned that TaiG had released its tool to jailbreak devices with iOS 8.3 installed, no one had imagined all the problems that we were going to encounter with her. It is understandable that errors appear with the first versions of a jailbreak, but the errors that we are used to are not the errors that we have detected.

The usual thing in the first versions of a new jailbreak is that the system is unstable, causing closures or the malfunction of an application. But TaiG Jailbreak 2.0.0 has come up with a bug (which is actually two) that prevents users from ending the process. Another problem, which is more "understandable", see the quotes, is that Cydia Substrate (required for many tweaks) does not work, which makes the jailbreak a bit (in fact, a lot) "lame".

On the official TaiG website in English, it clearly states that «Cydia Substrate is not compatible with iOS 8.2 and 8.3 […] Wait for its update patiently”, Which has led us all into confusion. When reading this text, all eyes have been focused on the creator of Cydia, Saurik, but, in reality, the one who has to update the tool is TaiG, not Saurik.

A kernel patch is needed for Cydia Substrate to work as it should and that responsibility falls on the shoulders of the TaiG team. i0n1c, which is infamous for its lack of sympathy but is to be THANKED that it has been reviewing the tool from the beginning, published a tweet that Saurik reproduced confirming it (above these lines). Shortly after, and faced with an alleged avalanche of requests for Saurik to hurry up, the creator of Cydia published the following:

"As people still seem confused: to repair Substrate in iOS 8.3, @taig_jailbreak (not me) will update the kernel patch from the jailbreak) (not Substrate)."

As you can see in the following screenshot, TaiG has responded to a forum user saying that «we are trying to release the update as soon as possible. It won't take long. In fact, we will release an update today (Beijing time)«. Most likely, the update will appear in Cydia as soon as it is available. On the other hand, version 2.0.1 of TaiG jailbreak should also be released, which will include this update and possibly fix the failures of the failed installation.

    I jailbroken my iPhone 6 plus and tearing up the settings screen disappeared (it goes blank), the second time, everything seemed to work fine but after several hours, it was blank again.

    Any way to fix this?

    Thankssssssss

    The solution to the failed jailbreak, if it can be said like that, is nothing more than using iTunes 12.0.1…, waiting for the cydia updates, thanks for these little notes 🙂

    Let's see, it is still not clear to you, they have to patch the kernel, so what they have to update is the tool to do the jail, there will be no update in cydia, they have to get an update of the tool to do the jail

    Yes brother, change the version of itunes, it worked for me, perfect, just install itunes 12.0.1 and ready! 😉 thanks to everyone who provided solutions !! Waiting for the update to use cydia as God intended 🙂

    The thing here is that a lot of people don't pay attention, don't know what they're really doing, and only know how to follow a dummy's manual when they jailbreak their device. And now when something does not go well the first time, you can only rant saying that the jailbreak does not work (only those who have never done it before are saved). If they had stopped to read a little from when the previous jailbreak was until iOS 8.1.2, the TaiG tools were already seen then that they gave problems when using an iTunes version higher than 12.0.1.26. If the jailbreak does not work with current versions of iTunes, it will be for something foreign to them (although they could well have said it, that's true) that they cannot get around, for whatever reason. That said, the only problem I see with this jailbreak is that it is not compatible with Cydia Substrate. Everything else is left over, or it is enough to direct to the solution, without discrediting, insulting this team. Greetings.

      I agree with you. I immediately skip the itunes drivers error, I assumed it was because of the version, so I went down to 12.0.1.26 and that's it. I had no problems jailbraking. People want all solutions to be at hand, and they do not strive to find it.

    With how easy it is to read and find out that the Jail is still not reliable and that only doing it now will give errors, bother to read things before and you will avoid many head warming

    I do not know why they cry the same thing always happens, as soon as the jailbreak comes out, you have to wait for saurik to update the substrate, the problems that the jailbreak has are minimal, what a derogatory post and lack of judgment, as you can see that until now they enter the world of the jailbreak, as you can see that they never made a real jailbreak in ios 5 or 6 that it was quite a feat to make it work where you had to beg for your operator's sim to work or it would not stay dead on the restart, they cry because not yet cydia was updated, To remind you a bit, jailbreak and Cydia are two different things, learn to differentiate. stop crying and rather give thanks because you were able to make a jailbreak where the game between hackers and apple becomes more and more intense by closing the doors to the jailbreak and if you find the jailbreak very annoying like this, you can go to android and ready.

      and who asked for your bitter criticism of life? The one who knows the most about everything and does not really know anything has to always come out, take care of your life, you are wise
