iPhone 8 using the multipath. Worked on the very first try. Didn’t turn anything off or call on the gods. Seems to be very hit and miss in attempts but wanted to note too that it can just work. Also which tweak is it to get X gestures?

Hey goons, Hope you all can help me out. I bought an old iPad 2 for the sole purpose of listening to Spotify and reading Gmail at work. I now realize that both of these apps (and a plethora of others) aren't capable of being downloaded on the iOS this iPad has (9.3.5 - apparently I need 10+). On top of that, I can't seem to run spotify through Safari and can't download Google Chrome (again, needs iOS 10+). Would it even be worth my time to look into jailbreaking and maybe being able to force installs of the older versions of the apps I want to use? Or should I just bite the bullet, pay for shipping/restocking and return the old AF iPad never to buy another Apple product again? I mean, what's the point of making tech that lasts 7+ years but can't install several apps? Thanks in advance?

Can’t hurt to try. To answer your question, the point is that people by and large upgrade their idevices enough that most people are running on the last OS or two, so there’s not much need to support devices stuck on iOS 9.

Well, it can hurt to try if jailbreaking it means I can't return it, which I'm pretty sure it does  But if there's a chance that jailbreaking this device can get even one or two of the apps I kind of need for this to be useful in any way I'll probably take it. That's why I'm asking here before I devote any time to what could be a losing battle.Also, they don't have to support old apps, they can just make them available... kinda like Android does. But that isn't really keeping in the spirit of "forcing people to keep upgrading".

On the other hand, you're REALLY not going to get a great experience using an iPad 2, even if you get the old versions of apps on there. Pretty much everything is going to crawl at this point. In my repair shop, we're down to maybe one a month on those, everyone is just replacing them now since they're nearly unusable, even the old folks who only use email and the browser. An iPad 4 or maybe a Mini 2/3 (don't spend extra for a Mini 3, it's identical to the 2 aside from having Touch ID) would probably be about the minimum to get halfway decent performance. Or hell, an iPhone 5S on Wifi if you don't need the bigger screen.

Jailbreak it, find a repository of old versions of software and install those and see if they still work. Some apps demand you update, some see what device you're on and allow the older version. Between jailbreaking and testing old apps you're looking at 2 hours of work, max, to see if this will work for you.

I’ve wondered, if you restore an old iPad, will it let you download and restore the last compatible iOS? Like this stuff hasn’t been signed for years now.

In some rare situations, yes. You can use https://ipsw.me/ to figure out whether older versions of iOS are still being signed for a given device.

The last version of iOS the device supported will be signed for it until the end of Apple. (Or if you happen to get lucky maybe Apple will accidentally sign every version for every device again when nobody’s looking)

What's the explanation for why apple signing can't be spoofed to allow universal firmware installations?

Because their private keys have never leaked. They likely never will. The best we’re likely to get is things like blob saving where you store a copy of the transaction between your phone and Apple, so that you can later reinstall the same OS version even if they’re not signing it. (Doesn’t necessarily work for newer iPhones) That’s pretty high level but is roughly correct.

It feels so weird being back in this thread. Hello, nerds. Is there any way to get the NGXPlay app onto my ios12 gm iPhone X? Are these ‘TweakMo’ type places scams/malware repositories?

Until someone publicly releases a new jailbreak it doesn’t seem likely.

The latest firmware with a jailbreak currently is 11.3.1 One of the Jailbreak developers has found exploits in ios12 that could lead to a potential jailbreak, but it also could mean nothing.

Is 9.3.5 or 10.3.3 untethered, yet?
