CoolStar VS iOSCreatix Fight? – iOS 11 jailbreak update

So uh yeah that happened hey guys what is going on this is AI apple geek today I want to bring you guys sort of a clarification about what's been going on in the geo breaking community as you guys may know there's been a ton of drama on Twitter and unread it also the electro jailbreak is almost here guys so if you have a device on iOS 7.1.2 that will be coming out very shortly and of course don't forget to subscribe to be notified when that does drop and for those of you who have updated past eleven point one point two hope is not lost we will probably see a jailbreak for that fairly soon however I did make

A mistake in my previous jailbreak update video do not update if you are on a lower version of iOS if you're already on eleven point two it doesn't hurt you to go to eleven point two point five I said it was okay to upgrade to eleven point two point five this has since been proven false and I am terribly sorry I did not get another video out in time to correct this mistake the older versions of iOS 11 have now been stopped from the signing window you cannot go back to it anymore last week I did have my wisdom teeth removed so I try to correct this mistake through Twitter but I don't know

If you guys follow me there so again go follow me on Twitter and once again I do apologize a for this mistake but anyways for those of you who have not updated for the home pod features here's some good news a developer in the current electric jailbreak has said on Twitter also looks like eleven point two point five changed a lot on the security side anything less than eleven point two point two is very similar to eleven point one point two and cool sarah has said if you are on Evan point two through eleven point two point two stay there so basically what he's saying here

Those of you on in eleven point two three eleven point two point two we might just see a jailbreak for that pretty soon so don't update to the newest version which is eleven point two point five right now or eleven point three when that comes out there's no really state there's no guarantee there's just a probably for now so next up I wanted to clear up some confusion and angst in the current jailbreak community it's been a little crazy so if you guys are not caught up a few weeks ago I did tell you guys to stay on iOS the eleven point

Point to Google's project zero team did release a bunch of exploits that allowed iOS 11 to be jailbroken we just needed a developer to put it together and apparently the renowned developer cool star has stepped up to the plate and developed a jailbreak called Elektra is it's been in beta for quite a while you may have seen it on some other Apple channels telling you that it's safe even though that it really isn't it's just a beta right now so if you guys didn't know the jailbreak for iOS 11 will be called Elektra it'll be very similar to the ones we've had before you install an

App on your device click the jailbreak button it's that simple now theoretically the jailbreak is already stable the only problem is Cydia does not work Sarek the creator of Cydia Jay Freeman has not updated Cydia to be compatible with iOS 11 just yet so what this developer coolstar has done is went ahead and patched up a version of Cydia that way it would work on iOS 11 basically making sure that you guys don't experience any bad things on your device when you install the jailbreak and besides what good is a jailbreak if Cydia doesn't work and you can't install

Any tweaks now that would just be a lame so Elektra has entered what I call phase 2 instead of being in a widespread beta program that it's been in for quite a while now it's in a private beta program now it's called the Electra RC as you guys can see here in this tweet by coolstar last week Electra RC was in testing and he was planning on giving this specific build to only a few developers that way they can test it out you know get their tweaks on it and see how it works and I totally understand that the only problem is so many people look at this guy right here so many

People are just like spamming him for this build and they have gone to extreme lengths to try to get this build to the public because obviously this is the one with the working Cydia so first of all I'd like to address this because ok if you're watching this video you're probably not one of these people but if you are stop spamming the developers they're working on it they're probably really tired lack of sleep you know these people are doing this for free is not like we had Pangu back in the day that got paid by a company to make jailbreak a sponsored jailbreak so would

Still technically be free but they were getting paid to make it cool star is not being paid to make this jailbreak he's just doing it for the good of the community and this is how he is treated and of course not only him the other developers as well that have been working on this so developers in general as you guys can see right here cool star has pointed out that all packages from Sark's repo and many third parties sitting uh packages that depend on Damons are broken on iOS 11 hence the initial developer only release while we get electric tools set up and let third

Parties update so what he's doing is getting this private build out to developers so that they can make the framework for the rest of the tweaks because tweaks don't just depend on Cydia and a jailbreak you know they also have to have other programs in place for them to work properly and that is what this build is intended to do of course the only problem is this is a developer jailbreak and if this leaks out of course your device can be in danger so cool start obviously did not want this to leak out a warning to everyone who got an electro RC the builds are water

Marked and we know who you are if you leaked it and unfortunately Elektra RC 1.2 did leak out to the public you leaked out to the Internet a bunch of people installed it and guess what they probably messed up their device as you guys can see here if you installed the leaked IP a and get into a boot loop don't bother asking me or any other electro developers for help I will not disclose names but the IP a was leaked by a tweak developer not by one of the initial non developer testers and then things turn for the worse this is I mean understandable but this created a ton of

Drama in the jailbreak community basically what is happening here is coolstar is blocking the people who have used them leaked version of the jailbreak from upgrading to the final version if you've used the leaked enjoy living your pirated copies bugs until your future restore or manually clean up your filesystem and by the way I am looking into future restore it is very complicated okay it is not just a one button press it's not a reset button at all people with a legitimate copy will be able to upgrade and then this

Happened okay he started pointing fingers I guess you can say and he accuses the developer for iOS critics the developer behind peekaboo you know the tweak that brought 3d touch to non supported devices he's saying that Andrew wick or critics who is part of the developer beta program leaked the developer version of a lecturer and this is causing all sorts of crap to be flying around the jailbreak community he's basically saying that critics leaked this and he's the reason why and it's just really making a whole big mess of the situation

And if you guys want to go read all of cool stars tweets I'll be sure to link that in the description you'll see his side his stance and what he's accusing critics of now I wanted to get Andrews or critics his side of this situation because he really isn't getting much of a voice many people have been just backing cool start just because he's cool star so I went ahead and asked him on Twitter about all this drama I'd like to get your side since school star has made his quite clear working on an update video Baba so what do you think and he said my

Side is I didn't like what cool star was choosing to do because it prevents people from using the stable release just for installing a beta I told no pixel I would write or crack something after the final release to make it work for those people and I'm assuming he told cool star and they kicked me out of the release candidates and in a follow up Andrew did tell me that there was no watermarking in 1.2 which was the version that was leaked whatsoever it was a bluff but 1.3 does have watermarking very interesting stuff and he's refering to this tweet right here

No pixel another developer of Elektra has posted this picture of apparently a Twitter DM of him and Andy of course there's no name there's no context so of course I would definitely take this with a grain of salt but based on what critics has told me I'm just gonna refer to create access Andrew for the rest of this video is that he wanted to do this after the final release so that the people who did install the betta can install the final version instead of you know being blocked by coolstar and all and no pixilated is saying please don't lie and I mean this

Is really not helping the situation and of course this whole situation is not optimal no as no pixel has stated here their highest priority is keeping users safe which is something I cannot stress strongly enough on this channel do not install crappy geo brakes even if is from like a trustworthy youtuber okay if a youtuber is truly trustworthy they will not show you how to use a beta jailbreak that is not finished that is unstable and can brick your device much less show you tweaks on it so if you guys see any jailbreak tutorials or whatever before the actual thing is

Released to the public take it with a grain of salt because they're part of the problem listen I'm not gonna be taking sides on this situation I just want to make that clear I'm not defending Andrew or coolstar but I do have to say pointing fingers is not helping this whole situation at the end of the day we're still getting a jailbreak of some sort that is a win for us users but anyways guys I hope you guys enjoyed this video hope I was able to clear up some things for you guys hang in there the jailbreak is almost here if you're on Reddit please don't

Try to divide the community any more than it already is and if you're on Twitter of course same goes for you also follow me on Twitter at I Apple geek I'll be retweeting a lot of the stuff that comes from the developers directly and of course when the jailbreak drops don't forget to subscribe and I will see you guys in the next video peace
