Pwning Using Another iOS Device
- You can use another iOS device that is jailbroken to put your target device in pwned DFU mode.
- This can be very useful if you do not have a Mac but have a spare iOS device on hand.
- This method can be used for iPhone 4, A6(X), and A7 devices.
- In the picture, the iPhone 6 is the host device where iPwnder Lite is installed and USB lightning to camera adapter is plugged in. It is jailbroken with Chimera/Odysseyra1n.
- The iPad mini 2 is the target device I will be pwning with checkm8, plugged into the iPhone 6 via the USB adapter with a lightning cable. I have also placed it in DFU mode.
- On your host device, install iPwnder Lite, and follow the setup in the picture above
- Get iPwnder Lite from my repo: https://lukezgd.github.io/repo
- Install and open NewTerm or MTerminal on the host device
- Run the command
ipwnder_lite -p - If successful, this will put the target device in pwned DFU mode with checkm8
- iPwnder Lite should work on most jailbreaks on iOS 9 and newer
- For iOS 15 and newer, iPwnder Lite is also tested successfully on palera1n "Rootful." Dopamine and palera1n rootless are not compatible, even when converted with Derootifier.
- If your host device has a USB C port (eg. newer iPads), use a USB A to USB C adapter instead of a USB A to lightning adapter. Do not use lightning to USB C cables, they will not work. Only use lightning to USB A cables.
