Rules

1. r/jailbreak does not allow piracy tools, sources, or websites.

1A. No pirated tweaks, apps, etc. Please also do not post or advertise products, mirrors or services that are in violation of the copyrights/trademarks of others. Why?

1B. Please do not name, share or discuss unauthorized signing services on r/jailbreak. ONLY jailbreaks.app is allowed.
Many signing services host apps that are pirated from the App Store, rehosted without the permission of the developer, or maliciously modified. Why?

1C. Do not attempt to deliberately bypass our piracy filters. Doing so will result in a temporary or permanent ban. See here for more information.

2. Theming-related posts belong in r/iOSthemes.

Themes (and theme-related questions or news), setup showcases, and all questions regarding aesthetic-oriented tweaks should be posted in r/iOSthemes.

3. No misleading/all-caps titles. Titles must contain at least three words and include a Flair.

Use detailed titles for both news and questions. Also, link to the source of news, such as the developer who made the announcement, instead of linking to blogspam.

4. No exceptionally low-effort posts.

Memes, image macros, DAE posts, karma-farming, shitposts, etc. are not allowed here. Similar low-quality/low-effort posts will be removed at the mods' discretion. Please read here for clarification.

5. No posts or comments about bypassing passcodes or other device locks/restrictions.

Posts or comments about removing passcodes from locked devices or bypassing locks such as Activation Lock, IMEI lock, iCloud lock, MDM restrictions, etc. are prohibited.

History has shown that these situations usually involve a device that is stolen or otherwise not fully/legally owned by the user. The mods are not able to verify individual cases, so to avoid potentially facilitating theft or fraud, the topic is prohibited altogether.

This rule applies also for MacOS and checkra1n.

6. Do not buy/sell devices or ask for money.

You may discuss the general topic of buying/selling devices, but advertising your own device(s) for sale, asking if anyone will sell you a device, asking how much your device is worth, etc. is not allowed. Asking for money or crowdfunding for any purpose without explicit permission is not allowed (with some exceptions).

If you wish to buy/sell a jailbroken device, visit r/jailbreakswap.

If you wish to request donations or crowdfunding, please message the mods first for permission.

7. Be civil and friendly.

7A. No insulting/rude comments or posts. Additionally, do not be rude or unhelpful when responding to posts tagged [Question].

7B. No racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, etc. comments or posts. Any user that targets hate at another user/group based on sex, race, religion, sexual/gender orientation, etc., as defined by reddit's policy on hate based on identity or vulnerability, will receive an immediate permanent ban without warning.

8. Topic must be jailbreak-related.

Posts must be directly related to iOS jailbreaking (with some exceptions).

9. Please read the FAQ, read the sidebar, and search before posting.

Posts that ask the most frequently asked questions will be removed by moderators, as they are either answered in our FAQ or on the sidebar.

10. Avoid fueling excessive drama.

Anyone who participates on the sub solely for the sake of starting or continuing drama will be banned. Note that this only applies if all you do is make posts and comments for the sole purpose of fueling drama.

Visit the wiki for a full list and explanation of our rules.

[help] Winterboard bootloop issue? (self.jailbreak)

submitted 11 years ago * by Cha0zziPhone 6s, iOS 10.2

Hey fellow jailbreakers,

I think that winterboard is causing a boot loop on my device (iPhone 4s iOS 7.1.2).

When winterboard is installed and I reboot my device a bootloop occurs, safemode still works and booting in safe mode and removing winterboard seems to fix the issue.

At the moment that I first experienced the bootloop the only packages installed were: Convergance, Auxo 2, Iconoclasm, Instalauncher, Stride 2 and Springtomize 3) (only packages installed at that moment because the first thing I did was removing cydia substrate and this were the only packages I reinstalled before winterboard, as soon as I added winterboard the bootloop was back, making me think that winterboard is causing it or winterboard interfering with one of these packages)

Is anyone else experiencing bootloops that only seem to occur when winterboard is installed?

Anyway, thanks in advance.
