1.0.3

TrollInstallerX v1.0.3

Changes:

• Update for Xcode 15.4+ compilation (fixes #25)
• Added a temporary fix for yellow iPhone 14 (Plus) devices on iOS 16.3, please use TrollInstallerX-20D50.ipa (fixes #33)
• Removing confusing logging around exploit deinitialisation (e.g. #11)
• Fix arm64e devices on iOS 15.7.x that couldn't download the kernelcache by updating libgrabkernel2 (should, in theory, fix #21)

Note: A8 devices on iOS 15.2+ will not be supported until a future release of TrollInstallerX. Furthermore, support for arm64e (A12+) devices on early iOS 17.0 betas is not planned, unless someone else would like to implement it. You can now use TrollRestore for both of these cases.

1.0.2

TrollInstallerX v1.0.2

Changes:

• Full support for iOS 17.0 beta 1 - 4 on arm64 devices - partially contributed to by @m1zole

Note: arm64e support for the above versions is still being worked on.

1.0.1

TrollInstallerX v1.0.1

Changes:

• Add success message at the end of the installation
• Fix bug in supported version checking
• Add (untested) support for early iOS 17.0 betas

Edit: early iOS 17.0 betas currently won't work. A fix will come in v1.0.2.

1.0.0

TrollInstallerX v1.0.0

TrollInstallerX is a reliable, fast and simple TrollStore installer. It has several features that set it apart from the other installers out there, detailed below. It supports iOS 14.0 - 16.6.1 on all devices (apart from a slight exception for A8 devices, which is only temporary). Certain versions have a slightly different installation method, which you can read about in the README.

Features:

• Direct installation of TrollStore - On supported versions, TrollInstallerX can install TrollStore directly to your home screen, as if you were to install it via the persistence helper.

• Persistence helper installation - TrollInstallerX will properly install a persistence helper into a removable system app of your choice - this means one that doesn't rely on temperamental file overwrites, but rather one that TrollStore will recognise as a legitimate persistence helper. This method works on all versions supported by TrollInstallerX.

• Unprecedented reliability - Thanks to the extremely reliable XPF patchfinder (used in Dopamine), TrollInstallerX has a very high success rate with exploitation. When possible, it will either use the on-disk kernelcache, or download a copy of it to patchfind. This is detailed below.

• libgrabkernel2 - The new libgrabkernel2 library allows for downloading almost any kernelcache available for the devices supported by TrollInstallerX.

• MacDirtyCow kernelcache grabber - On versions supported by MacDirtyCow, MacDirtyCow is used to unsandbox and TrollInstallerX simply uses the on-disk kernelcache instead.

• iOS 14 support - iOS 14 is completely supported with TrollInstallerX. For arm64 devices on iOS 14, this is one of the few installers that supports them. However, TrollHelperOTA is still the recommended installation method for arm64e devices on iOS 14.

Information on how to use TrollInstallerX, as well as FAQs and credits, can be found in the README of this repository.
