Dopamine recently got an update so on-device jailbreaking is now available for all the iOS 15-16.
But for me after jailbreaking the VPN broke. Moreover the TrollStore broke. Still struggling to pick whether to have jailbreak or VPN & TrollStore

Itās been a while since I didnāt post in this forumā¦ I only had time to read each post (and topic) and put likes to whoever was helpful in these days!
I have iOS 17.3 thoughā¦ So for me itās better to wait until iOS 17.4 as there will be more customisation possibilities for us Europeans!

According to official Apple docs, this feature is called as something like āmanaged app distibutionā, so a third party app store could get reviewed by Apple and then start distribute apps on it.
Itās not like complete sideload and customization, but h*ll yeah, this feature would be cool!
Thereās someone quite popular who express āworriesā on sideloading except Apple. Guess who he is if you can 
(Maybe I should say who I was thinking about)

Just accidently did something I didnāt like ā I make a duplicate issue in the Dopamine repo
Sometimes itās really hard for you to know thereāre already same issues mentioned by othersā¦ Usually because you failed to check

Good news, I no longer need to worry about this, by downgrading jailbreak to 2.0.5 everything works
Just realized that Iām randomly installing stuffs that clearly didnāt list iOS 16.6 in their supported versions
Luckily my device didnāt doomed into a bootloop

To those who have missed the previous 30 years, here is a short list of the results of negotiations with russia that it never respected:
-
The Budapest Memorandum of 1994. russia agreed to ārespect independence, sovereignty, and the existing borders of Ukraineā as well as ārefrain from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of Ukraineā. Breached by russia invading Crimea in 2014.
-
The russian-Ukrainian Friendship Treaty of 1997. russia agreed to respect Ukraineās territorial integrity and āreaffirmed the inviolability of the bordersā between the two countries. russia breached it in 2014.
-
The OSCE Istanbul Summit in 1999. russia committed to withdrawing its troops from Moldovaās Transdniestrian region and Georgia until the end of 2002. That never happened.
-
The 2008 Georgia ceasefire agreement following russian aggression against the country. russia agreed that ārussian military forces must withdraw to the lines prior to the start of hostilitiesā. That never happened.
-
The Ilovaysk āGreen Corridorā in August 2014 and other āhumanitarianā death corridors. russia pledged to let Ukrainian forces leave the encircled town of Ilovaysk in the east of Ukraine, but instead opened fire and killed 366 Ukrainian troops. In the following years, russia attacked numerous humanitarian corridors in Syria.
-
The āMinskā agreements of 2014 and 2015. russia agreed to cease the fire in the east of Ukraine. There had been 200 rounds of talks and 20 attempts to enforce a ceasefire, all of which the russian side promptly violated. On February 24th, 2022, russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
-
The 2022 Black Sea Grain Initiative. russia pledged to āprovide maximum assurances regarding a safe and secure environment for all vessels engaged in this initiative." It then hindered the initiativeās operation for months before withdrawing unilaterally a year later.
NB: I am only focused on deals made with russia to address specific issues and conflicts. I am not mentioning almost 400 international treaties that russia has breached since 2014.
There are no conclusions to be drawn here, except that no one can seriously use the words ārussiaā and ānegotiationsā in the same phrase.
Putin is a habitual liar who promised international leaders that he would not attack Ukraine days before his invasion in February 2022.
russiaās tactic has remained consistent in its many wars over the last three decades: kill, grab, lie, and deny.
Why would anyone genuinely believe that russia in 2023 is any different from russia in 1994, 1997, 1999, 2008, 2014, 2015, and 2022?

I finally decided to have a go at removing some bloatware from my android phone so I installed the adb thing in linux, put my phone into debug mode and im using adb shell to uninstall stuff
shell@jflte:/ $ pm list packages | grep 'trip'
package:com.tripadvisor.tripadvisor
package:com.samsung.android.tripwidget
shell@jflte:/ $ pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.tripadvisor.tripadvisor
Success
well thats one down , few more to go
I wonder how much brain surgery I can do to this phone before I brick it
BTW this is a regular phone, its not been rooted but this method is allowing me to uninstall the packages that the phone doesnt usually allow to be uninstalled
heres a link on how to install adb if you need it

it wonāt become a brick because you can install it again via command,
but in my experience, start from social networks, chrome browser and similar things.
Sometimes they deliberately put it in the firmware to check if you have an app like compass and then some other system apps will not start if it is missing
Be sure to write down every app youāve removed
do not touch the camera app at all
in the last case, you can always reset the phone and it will start from the factory settings and have all the apps in it

im lucky that I have a samsung s4 which doesnt come with social network apps

when you list the packages then you can often find these
com.facebook.services
com.facebook.system
com.facebook.appmanager
and similar various āhelperā packages that are pre-installed and are actually waiting in case you want to have a āreal applicationā.
com.google.android.apps.youtube.music - this is YouTube music (which I donāt use but was present).
For those who are on win11/10 like me
simply hold SHIFT + right click on an empty space inside the ADB folder ā open terminal/PowerShell here
and execute these commands
.\adb devices
.\adb shell
(and then, as desired, system and other)
pm list packages -s
pm list packages -f
pm list packages -d
in short, in order to call ADB from powershell, you must have a dot and so on .\adb

You guys can at least recover your phone if something goes wrong while playing with the system.
If you doomed your iPhone, then while you surely can just put it into recovery / DFU and reinstall the system, youāre bound to say goodbye to all your jailbreaks, as the device need to be upgraded if you restore like this, and it is unlikely that Appleās latest system doesnāt have the exploit fixed.
Taurine gets upgraded six months ago so now all my devices is eligble to perform on-device jailbreaks, and since some of them supports perma-signing I now have a really big playground to just perform really weird stuffs on iPhone without needing to worry to reach my computer every now and then.
Even if thereās almost no practical reason for people to jailbreak anymore, this is fun.
Alright I think this should be the end of my jailbreaking sh*ts in this topic

This is not tinkering with the system, but simply uninstalling the application for a specific user, which otherwise you cannot do through the smartphone GUI
This action alone does not make any sense if your phone is not highly customizedā¦
Meaning, that I have a custom launcher, a separate app for the keyboard, an icon pack, my browser and so on, and then suddenly I have a bunch of old unnecessary apps that take up space or use CPU and RAM with some of their services that I donāt needā¦
Nowadays, when you have a lot of space and RAM, itās not a necessity for those actions
it is smarter to disable unnecessary apps from startup 
If the Android is rooted then you can easily make a brick out of it,
but today it is quite difficult to get root.
The last time I succeeded was when Android was version 4.1
and now it is already 14+
unless of course, you put a custom rom
which is an even greater risk of destroying the device or that half of the things do not work as they should
and in the end there is no great benefit from root
