iOS 10.3 Jailbreak News & Update: Hackers Finally Found A Way To Break Apple's New File System AFPS?

Mar 16, 2017 08:20 AM EDT | Anthony Hunter

The wait for an iOS 10.3 jailbreak still continues despite the fact that no one has successfully come close to hacking the buggy iOS 10. Developing a jailbreak tool for Apple's iOS software is not easy, especially after the release of the new iOS which features Apple's new File System APFS.

Luca Todesco has already retired from jailbreaking and has decided to play on the new Nintendo Switch. But fortunately, Pangu has not lost their grip after the release of an unofficial 10.3 tool.

Even though there are steps on how to jailbreak the new iOS on DownloadPangu.org using the tool called Yalu created by Italian Hacker Luca Todesco, it seems like it's not working, according to some comments. Todesco himself even admitted that it is impossible to perform a 10.3 jailbreak. Even if someone will try to downgrade the OS to a previous one, it is said to be ineffective and useless.

Apple now has become more combative in the battle against jailbreaking, and upgrading the new system is their only way to stop the hackers. According to App Informer, "This new File System APFS will almost guarantee that a jailbreaker cannot get into the IPA files. In computer terms, IPA is the iOS Application Archive, and this breach is needed for a successful jailbreak."

Aside from Todesco, big hacking groups like Pangu also has been having a hard time finding a way to jailbreak the new system. The last working jailbreak was the iOS 9 series and nothing sustainable has come out for iOS 10. There is a semi-untethered Yalu iOS 10.2 jailbreak, but that's the closest the Apple jailbreak community can get. Other than that, most of the steps news and ones suggested online are fake.

However, according to a website called YaluJailbreaktool.com, even if the jailbreak tool for the iOS 10.3 has not yet officially been announced, it might be possible to jailbreak the iOS 10.3 by using the Online Cydia Installer. There are steps already given on the website, but users must take this information with caution since there are no detailed reviews yet for this process.
