n1ghtshade VS ish

Use n1ghtshade

n1ghtshade RC3

Fully working jailbreak for all versions through IOS 9.3.5. https://github.com/synackuk/n1ghtshade/releases/tag/1.0

You can also tether downgrade your 5 to iOS 6 with https://github.com/synackuk/n1ghtshade (You'll need a computer to boot it each time it dies or reboots)

Presenting another useless tethered downgrade tutorial. I'm pretty sure this method has already been detailed before, but I'm sharing it again, I guess. This tutorial is primarily for Beta Firmwares. If you're not attempting to install beta firmware, I advise you use n1ghtshade.

go to: https://github.com/synackuk/n1ghtshade/releases click Assets -> n1ghtshade-macos.zip

nope. You can downgrade tethered to ios 6 using n1ghtshade https://github.com/synackuk/n1ghtshade or dualboot by downgrading to ios 8 then doing coolbooter Guide here for full dualboot untethered: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGvCf0Jo2Zk

Tethered downgrade with https://github.com/synackuk/n1ghtshade

See this discussion

There's probably some YouTube tutorials for this. You can use either n1ghtshade or Deca5 I thinl they both do the same thing, and they're both mac only.

They don't "allow" it, but most apps that need background execution just ask permission for geolocation tracking and pretend to use it, for example iSH[1]. There are a few activities that the app can do to prevent itself from being suspended when it goes out of focus, like playing sound, geolocation etc.

Android: install termux, `pkg install openssh`, and preferably run `termux-setup-storage` to give it access to storage folders.

iOS: I think https://ish.app/ ?

This of course hasn't been true for years, eg: http://omz-software.com/pythonista/index.html

And you can run a C compiler (or anything) inside https://ish.app/ too.

False. iSH is an x86 "bytecode" emulator.

"Possibly the most interesting thing I wrote as part of iSH is the JIT. It's not actually a JIT since it doesn't target machine code. Instead it generates an array of pointers to functions called gadgets, and each gadget ends with a tailcall to the next function; like the threaded code technique used by some Forth interpreters."

There is an x86 virtual machkne running Linux available on the App Store now.

Now would Apple allow a full blown Windows VM is a different question

There are plenty of solutions for running Python in an IDE on the iPad. There is an even an x86 emulator and a Linux terminal built on top of it in the App Store.

https://ish.app/

It can run anything that you can run on an x86 in user mode. I downloaded the AWS CLI (which requires Python) to run some tests

By the way, you were completely wrong about VSCode being written in .Net.

> That's just compiling the code to a native binary, which you would then have to go submit through Apple's store. How does that help for an IDE expected to allow you to test (i.e. execute) and debug the code you've just written ten seconds ago?

There is an existence proof that it could be done. If you ran iSH with remote VNC you could have a full IDE on a Mac.

> We can see right there some examples of what isn't allowed:

Not making any statement regarding the mentioned workflow issues (I mostly agree with them), I really like iSH [1] for this sort thing.

It’s a “good enough” solution for the “I just quickly need to do something in a terminal” problems.

And because it’s an x86 Alpine Linux it can even run simple binaries if needed.

But for me it still couldn’t replace a dedicated laptop for proper tasks.
