What is this?

• This script is for tether booting A8/A9 devices that have been downgraded by sunst0rm

  • It might work with devices that have been tethered downgraded by other tools.

  • Also capable of running the commands for checkra1n, running the commands for connecting via ssh to your device and saving your device's infomation to a text file

• I made this script for personal use, but anyone can use it

• This script is not made by mineek, it is made by me (Moneymoney122)

• It is intended for use on Linux (only tested on Arch Linux and Debian 11, but should work on every distro)

  • it might work on Mac OS, but I don't know

  • Update: tested on Mac OS Catalina (10.15) and it works

• Use it at your own risk, I am not responsible for any damage it may cause.

• I have no idea why I made this script, and I have no idea if it is actually useful or not

• it may or may not work

• Released on the 1st of October 2022

How to use this script:

• No compiling or installation necessary, just download and run it.

• if you have already downloaded this script and you want to update it, run: cd ~/boot-script/ && git pull

If you do not have git installed then install it using your distribution's package manager, or use method two to download it.

run git clone https://github.com/Moneymoney122/boot-script in the terminal while in your home directory or download the zip from this page and unzip the files and place them in a folder called "boot-script" (without the quotes) in your home directory

And then run:

cd ~/boot-script/

• main version: chmod +x boot.sh then ./boot.sh

• test version: chmod +x test-boot.sh then ./test-boot.sh

• I don't really update the test version anymore, If you want the latest version with the most features use the main version.

• old version: chmod +x old-boot.sh then ./old-boot.sh

• or all of them: chmod +x *.sh

Dependencies for this script:

• sunst0rm, if you want to tether downgrade your device: https://github.com/mineek/sunst0rm

  • linux fork of sunst0rm: https://github.com/MCApollo/sunst0rm

• ideviceinfo and ideviceenterrecovery: https://github.com/libimobiledevice/libimobiledevice

• libirecovery: https://github.com/libimobiledevice/libirecovery

• usbmuxd: https://github.com/libimobiledevice/usbmuxd

• ipwndfu, gaster or some other tool that is capable of putting your device in pwned dfu mode with signature checks removed

  • fork of ipwndfu for A8/A9 devices: https://github.com/exploit3dguy/ipwndfu

  • python2 is required for ipwndfu

  • gaster: https://github.com/0x7ff/gaster

    • if you're using gaster please ensure that you have compiled gaster:

      Linux: cd ~/gaster/ && make libusb

      MacOS: cd ~/gaster/ && make

      After that you should see a gaster executable in the gaster folder, if you get "bash: ./gaster: Permission denied" then run chmod +x gaster and try again

  • if you use any other tool than ipwndfu/gaster then you will need to pwn your device with sigchecks removed and then run the script and when you get to the pwning part of the script you will need to enter the option "already pwned"

• if you want to get checkra1n: https://checkra.in

• sshpass is required if you're going to use the ssh feature of this script

• sudo

• git

• awk

• lolcat

• hostnamectl

• some features of this script requires a system with systemd

./boot.sh: 33: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
james@moneymoney122-hp-compaq-nc6000:~/boot-script$

then run sudo bash ./boot.sh instead

Issues/Contact Me:

• Current issues: none

• update the list of checkm8 incompatible devices to list checkm8 compatible devices instead so that I don't have to update the list everytime Apple releases new devices - done

• If you have any issues with this script or any of my other projects, please open a github issue or contact me on twitter (@chandler_hacker) or contact me using the email on my profile

Possible future updates:

• None at the moment, I am open to ideas on what to add.

• planning on making a version of this script written in python

• This script is constantly being updated with new features.
