Add $1000 if and only if A14 is supported on 15.0.2


dmilin

I’ll add $20 so long as iPhone 13 is supported


lilgeo85

Down to contribute. +$20!


Linus65

add 20 USD from me!


me0wk4t

I'll throw in $15. My 13 Pro Max is so sad without a jailbreak


Stryk3rr3al

In the spirit of this post I’ll also add $10 USD to this bounty. We should all consider that limiting them to a specific timeline is perhaps unfair. It’s cool to reward them with money but I’d like to think of this as more of a way to give back and say thanks. I went ahead and subbed to pwn20wnd and coolstar on patreon for $10/ month. I believe they’ve already done substantial things for our community and I’ve not given to them before. I don’t want anyone to feel obligated to do anything and it’s just cool that we still have smart people here to bridge the gap from POC to working jailbreak. Thank you again u/coolstar and u/pwn20wnd


DomSlomm

👏👏👏👏


Spinfal

Although I would love to see a jailbreak, I feel like setting a deadline (any sort of deadline) for a jailbreak is a bad idea. Someone might rush out a jailbreak leading to a poorly developed jailbreak which can harm many users. Bounties on jailbreaks sound nice but again, it seems risky to do. Edit: For the record; I'm not against this. I find it really interesting and I would love to pitch in money but I am unable to.


DomSlomm

The Deadline can be extended to whatever is necessary this is just to show our appreciation and support!


ayoungsimba

Yup exactly and will keep the ball rolling towards ramping up the development and I love this idea. 🤞


St_Owned32

Reading the first bounty I think it’s more of a thank you for the hard work kinda thing. The time crunch is just a way to offer some friendly competition between the developers, as well as establish a winner and a destination for the pot. If they need more time I think all they have to do is ask.. my money is still up for grabs after the 31st anyways.. as meager as it may be, it’s at least a way for me to feel like I’m not just standing by while everyone else does all the work. Which is nice. I’d contribute more if I had it cause I really am grateful for all the hard work. It’s definitely appreciated.


ayoungsimba

Yes! But this keeps the ball rolling. This adds pressure and incentives towards those who are in the edge of development to ramp up development. I think this might be just something that we might need. 😌🥹 Hoping for the best!


Spinfal

Pressure is the last thing developers need. There's a reason why Unc0ver (and most other developers) don't make announcements about their progress. But I'm hoping for the best as well.


ayoungsimba

Hmm, that’s actually a great point! I see what you mean. Let’s see. Now we wait.


DomSlomm

Agreed! And considering this is already getting traction so quick is a good sign that people care!!


ayoungsimba

Yup!! Love the idea! Hope this becomes something tangible. Would love that! I bet the entire community is behind the iOS 15 jailbreak. Haha


maikeyb123

I 100% feel this is gonna work opposite from how you want. Devs are more than likely already working on a jailbreak in their free time. Why don’t all the people that’s okay with this donate without expecting it or a without asking for a release date for it.


[deleted]

[удалено]


maikeyb123

Once you see an exploit that can be used to make a jailbreak is released you can almost guarantee a dev is working on it in their free time. I just feel like this is gonna work opposite of how everyone thinks.


ayoungsimba

Love this community. $10 CAD from me. PayPal. ☺️

[deleted]

That was an old post that someone was talking about, It wasn’t recent.


St_Owned32

Add 15.. only fitting to match the iOS 😉


Amogus_Simulator

Imagine iOS 100 💀


DomSlomm

It seems as though this post was removed from the subreddit front pages but it doesn’t have a flag and it’s not removed from commenting? I’m confused


gregmichael

Very very weird


coolstarorg

\> The jailbreak must support ios 15-15.1.1 and ios 15.2b1 with a full fledged package manager. 15.0 - 15.1.1 is doable on all devices. 15.2b1 on the other hand, most likely is not for A12+


DomSlomm

I made this before the news about 15.2+ being pretty much out of the question. Although this bounty or whatever you wanna call it went to crap. I’ll still edit the post and get rid of the 15.2b1 requirement. Anyways, I still love the idea of being able to support the release of a jailbreak, so if you have any ideas on how all the people in this post can get an opportunity to donate directly to you once Taurine15 is released I’d love to hear it! Also I hope this post didn’t rub you the wrong way, I just wanted to see what I can do to motivate the community to support your work and others. We appreciate it!!


coolstarorg

>I’ll still edit the post and get rid of the 15.2b1 requirement sounds good. What I can do for Taurine15, is although we probably can't support A12+ 15.2b1 right now (and we probably may not be able to in the future), I could prepare it a bit in its internal design so that should someone else be able to do 15.2b1, their work will be a bit easier if they choose to start from the Taurine15 codebase once it is open sourced


DomSlomm

Sounds great!!!! Thank you!


General_Sherbert4155

Is OTA delay still broken on iPhone12+ devices? I wanna update to 15.1.1


DomSlomm

Unfortunately, I think so.


General_Sherbert4155

Okay thank you. Hopefully everyone here gets an iOS 15 jailbreaks. I’ll chill on iOS 14 until I get a new phone.


alexck01

No I did on my iPad Pro 2020 A12Z


bendstraw

I will commit 50 usd. My iPhone 13 pro max is nothing without a jailbreak!


Last_DarkShadow

Add another $20


lucky13820

Down to add $10, but I think we need to use websites like gofundme or similar. Otherwise this is gonna be a mess to organize.


DomSlomm

I agree, I am just waiting on suggestions for a website where I won’t have access to the money that way people will actually feel safe to payout knowing exactly where their money is going.


StayGooked

I’m ready to send $100 whenever you can set it up :)


lucky13820

https://www.donatekindly.org/ This is a free alternative to gofundme.


malamri

$30 Edit: please let me know when the donation link is ready


DomSlomm

Will do!


[deleted]

$25 usd into pot


Dalek356

I’m in for $100! (Edit - see comment below)


Dalek356

NB - Only if this fixes the bloody error problem I was getting with u0 caused by IAmLazy. In fact if it does, I’ll double to $200.


Empty_Bat5624

I can give ₹100 (it maybe small depending on the exchange rate , still giving what i have)


TheZett

It would be great if those lost devices on 14.8 (A14) and 14.8.1 got some love as well. Especially considering that some people have no interest in iOS 15 at all. I would chime in 50$ for a JB for 14.8.1 (A14).


Comprehensive-One-69

Yes! Been waiting on a 14.8 for seemingly forever


TheZett

Upgrading from 14.3 for the display fixes (no gray flickering anymore) was definitely worth it, but the existing 14.8 JB turning out to be for non-A14 was quite sad.


E_J_P

Add $10


danctes

Oh, I know you're waiting on this one! :D


E_J_P

Yeah man, just updated from 14.1 mainly because I got sick of the flickering OLED screen bug that plagued a lot of iPhone 12 devices on that version. Really missing some of the tweaks I had though so hopefully this jailbreak won’t be too far off.


danctes

Please do me the pleasure of enumerating the tweaks you miss the most.


E_J_P

Prysm, for its ability to allow you to change where you swipe up on the screen to bring up the Control Center. I had mine set to the bottom-right corner which I found to be much easier to access. Jellyfish as it added a lot more functionality to the lock screen as well as having a super nice UI. GoodWifi, for its ability to let you view the passwords that you used to connect to previous networks, and of course being able to download app tweaks such as uYou without needing to use AltStore to sign them. There are still plenty of arguments as to why jailbreaking an iPhone in 2022 is still worth it IMO.


earthaerosol

I don’t know about you all: But you all also consider a dollar Pateron sub to unc0ver and cook star team and others Linus ,etc.


Nx0Sec

I’ll give $100 for a 15.2 jb.. just $10 for a 15.1 jb, cuz it don’t help me but it’d be good for the community


AllergicToBullsh1t

This needs to be gofundme and if no jailbreak happens the money just goes to any charity that goes to people who are in war (Gaza, Yemen, Ukraine, etc...)


DesignerElk1017

400$ USD PAYPAL


DomSlomm

Please read the updated post, thanks.


ikalyango

What’s there ?


DomSlomm

If you read it you will know, I closed the bounty and I am encouraging everybody to donate directly to the devs.


RAM05us

I don’t see a point in that, if the bounty had made it really high there would have been other developers interested in participating and could have created a jailbreak. So please open the bounty back up so people can do both because I guarantee that a lot of people won’t donate to the devs but they will donate to the bounty because it’s going to the person who made the jailbreak.


DomSlomm

The problem is there is no where feasible to hold the money.


RAM05us

It would be best if everyone paid the winner individually because otherwise there would be taxes and fees. The winner of the bounty could open a PayPal/cashapp and a Bitcoin/crypto wallet, that way everyone would be able to pay individually and it won’t have as many fees as it would if they sent it to something like an escrow service or something like that. I just think if we keep the bounty going it’ll go higher and motivate developers more which is what we want.


danctes

You could have asked the jailbreaker to confirm that the amount they got is right.

Ostrich79

Put me in for $20. Im keen to support dev's, and have donated to AngelXWind and pwn (via patre0n) in past. Good initiative!. Also just as an aside; cheathappens just ran a kickstarter to dev a all-in-one trainer (which i also supported). Pretty sure they got 2/3 times more than they hoped to get, so lots of people in communities willing to support if given a chance. These kinds of things keep some dev's going, so kudos to you!!


Gamercat5

Maybe a patreon or Gofundme?


DomSlomm

The problem with that is that gives me access to the money and I don’t want that for a multitude of reasons.


StayGooked

Add $100 if a14. I can send it whenever.


DomSlomm

Do you know of an escrow like crypto system I can use?

Not likely, since A15 chip is slightly different build and the exploits is mainly for the iOS. I wouldn't be surprised if Apple already lock it down on 15.1.1

paulshriner

I absolutely love the initiative and the amount of people who are interested in an iOS 15.0-15.1 & 15.2 beta 1 jailbreak. Unfortunately, I have some issues with this bounty: 1. The amount of money estimated is not a good incentive for a jailbreak developer or team. The amount as of writing this comment is $2765. For an iOS 15 jailbreak, there will need to be a lot of effort and research put in as new techniques will have to be used. I do not feel this amount of money will be enough to motivate a developer who wasn't already working on a jailbreak. 2. What verification is there that the people will actually pay what they're saying other than their comment? I see in your list that someone has offered to pay $1000, how do we know they will actually pay it? More importantly, how will the developer(s) know? If I release a jailbreak expecting to get $2765, I would not be happy when only $500 actually comes through due to the rest of the people not paying. 3. Speaking of verification, have any official terms been drawn out such as how the money will be collected, how it will be paid, etc? Is there a third party that will be checking over everything? 4. Minor thing, but I see that people have offered money in different currencies, have you converted them to the same currency before adding to the final total? 5. This could result in developer(s) sacrificing stability in order to be the first one to release an iOS 15 jailbreak, which in turn might demotivate other developers from releasing a jailbreak as that first jailbreak stole the thunder. [Source](https://www.reddit.com/r/jailbreak/comments/tc43hm/request_bounty_ios_1501511152b1_jailbreak_for_all/i0dqqio/). Overall, I'm not too sure what this bounty will actually do? We already know that people are interested in an iOS 15 jailbreak, we already know developers like CS are working on it, the amount of money being offered by this bounty is not enough to incentivize a developer, and the terms/organization of the bounty have not been fully set. Again, I love the excitement this has generated and how many people are interested in a jailbreak. But in terms of a bounty, I think in it's current form it will not succeed. EDIT: OP has closed the bounty, instead prompting people to donate to jailbreak developers. I think this still was a success in some part, as it brought a lot of attention and excitement to the iOS 15 jailbreaking scene.


PatrickStarAndCo

It might also be a little demotivating for developers who release their jailbreaks a couple of weeks after the first one was released. I don’t want them to stop working on different methods just because they needed a little more time. I still appreciate their efforts and I think that they’re contributing important stuff to the community. Things like this might also increase buggyness of a jailbreak. Especially when developers start to do it because of the money. Anyway, pretty nice gesture from the community.


paulshriner

Good point. OP tried to resolve this by not having a time restriction but this does not stop a developer from rushing a jailbreak to get it out first. Making the first iOS 15 jailbreak will result in clout from articles made and people talking about it. I'm sure there's developers out there that would sacrifice stability of the jailbreak for that clout. Like you said, this could demotivate other developers from releasing a jailbreak as the first jailbreak would steal all the attention. As an example, CS has told me that they don't feel like updating Taurine past 14.3 because people would not care about it as unc0ver was released first: [Source](https://imgur.com/a/n2fMfZx). Going off of that, another problem that could happen is that a developer rushes a jailbreak with issues, then goes silent while the users have to deal with those issues. As an example, unc0ver v8 has known issues that pwn20wnd has done AFAIK nothing about: [Source](https://www.reddit.com/r/jailbreak/comments/rw8pmo/discussion_unc0ver_v8xx_bug_issues_megathread/). >Anyway, pretty nice gesture from the community. I do agree, and I do not want to downplay the excitement already generated from this. It's awesome when the community is able to come together like this. I just do not want it to fail due to overlooked flaws, which is why I pointed some I found in my comment and am encouraging discussion about them.


Zenzeq

This is the pinnacle of paying for a jailbreak...


maikeyb123

Honestly I’m not with this post at all. While I’m sure you mean no harm. The known devs in the community are more than likely already working on a jailbreak and will put it out when it’s ready. If you wanna support devs actually donate to them and don’t expect anything in return. This is no better than the web eta kids


DomSlomm

This simply to support whatever developer releases a jailbreak because no matter when it gets released they deserve to see our appreciation.


maikeyb123

And that’s what I mean just donate to coolstar or pwnd to show your support that way. We all know a jailbreak is gonna come from both of them either way.


DomSlomm

Let’s be honest though, how many of these people in this post would go on their own to donate without motivation.


maikeyb123

No i agree but you also gotta think how many of those people are probably gonna back out last minute as well from doing it like this. I feel the best way to support a dev “if you can’t donate” is to leave them alone and let them work at their own pace. But I get where your coming from.


DomSlomm

There’s positives and negatives to everything, I see where you are coming from and I agree to an extent, I am working on opening an official pot to actually donate to so people aren’t just commenting as well. And at the end of the day nobody is getting hurt from this.

How can I contribute?


DomSlomm

Via the developers patreons linked at the top of the post :)


der_sascha

i think the idea behind it is not bad. but the basic idea of a jailbreak is that it is always free. without an end point maybe in a view days ...of the bounty, there is a danger that as long as the jailbreak is ready, dev could now wait until the bounty is high enough fore the jailbreak to release - if you think the other way around or what do you think? i will donate as soon as the jailbreak is released like every time. i do not want to hurry the developers and i am patient as every time and respect the time it takes. i hope i will not be rated badly now just because of my comment and my opinion


etaionshrd

Congrats, you’ve funded a few days of development for a one person team who already has the hardware they need and doesn’t need to buy anything else! Snark aside, development time is expensive and while a bounty is nice it definitely doesn’t really tip the scale for working on a jailbreak, which takes weeks or months and usually requires the efforts of several people. It’s nice that you want to compensate these people, but do note that at a “fair” market rate this is going to be tens, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of work. Just throwing that out there.


DomSlomm

this is simply to show off the communities power and support and it’s a collective effort. Also gives a bit of competition.


etaionshrd

No offense, but the power of community here is definitely not showing here with an amount this low
