On January 26, he formally released an "alpha, beta 1" version of yalu102 on his site in the form of an IPA (also sideloaded using Cydia Impactor) to jailbreak semi-untethered iOS 10.0 through 10.2.
#SEMI JAILBREAK CYDIA 10.1.1 CODE#
On 25 January 2017, Todesco released the incomplete source code to a new version of Yalu, one supporting every version from iOS 10.0.1 through 10.2, onto GitHub. Yalu is downloaded as an IPA, and sideloaded onto the device using saurik's Cydia Impactor.
#SEMI JAILBREAK CYDIA 10.1.1 UPDATE#
The jailbreak is patched as of iOS 10.2, though Todesco has said he will update yalu to support iOS 10.2. Beta 3 is the latest 'stable' working version. Several beta versions have been released, with the latest, beta 4 and beta 4-1 being retracted due to bugs and errors. The jailbreak utilizes several of Ian Beer's exploits discovered in the kernel of iOS 10.1. However, several fixes have been made available, many resulting in issues with tweaks and forcing some users to restore. Substrate is deliberately broken in an attempt to deter users from using it. When initially released, the jailbreak was intended for developers only, and users are warned about the jailbreak being unstable and buggy. Issues have arisen with devices using TSMC manufactured chips. Sometimes known as YaluX or yalu + mach_portal, yalu for iOS 10.1 is currently in beta, and supports the iPad Pro, the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, the iPhone SE and the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, giving them a semi-untethered jailbreak. On 29 May 2017, a fourth beta was released to update to update to the latest GitHub branch, which includes support for 10.0.x.
On 25 May 2017, beta 3 was released to support Cydia Substrate.
The first beta did not actually mount the root filesystem as read/write and therefore Cydia Substrate is disabled by default. This jailbreak is dubbed extra_recipe+yaluX. This jailbreak uses exploits discovered by Todesco & Ian Beer, and combines work done by xerub on Github to create a more stable jailbreak for the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. On 23 May 2017, Todesco released a jailbreak on his website. Some users have managed to use the code released to achieve a fully untethered jailbreak, but nothing has been publicly released. Released on GitHub, yalu for 8.4.1 supports various unknown devices.
