Jailbreak for A8 through A11, T2 devices, on iOS/iPadOS/tvOS 15.0, bridgeOS 5.0 and higher.

A screenshot of palera1n being used in a Terminal

Note that on A11 (iPhone X, 8, 8 Plus), you must disable your passcode while in the jailbroken state (on iOS 16, you need to reset your device before proceeding with palera1n).

1. USB-A cables are recommended to use, USB-C to may have issues with palera1n and getting into DFU mode.

Due to USB-C cables having different accessory IDs, your device may not be able to be recognized when using USB-C due to not being able to assert to its USB voltage pin.

2. Linux or macOS computer

AMD CPUs (not AMD Mobile) have an issue where it causes them to have a very low success rate with checkm8 exploit. It is not recommended that you use them with palera1n.

USB-C port on Apple Silicon Macs may require manual unplugging and replugging of the lightning cable after checkm8 exploit. This problem may be solved by connecting via USB hub, though extensions can vary.
