Kok3shi Jailbreak
Kanisha Dezarn
SakuRα Development, the team known for developing the kok3shi9 semi-untethered jailbreak tool for 64-bit iOS 9.3.x devices, took to Twitter this weekend to announce that kok3sh9 had been officially shelved and that the developer now considered the jailbreak to be E.O.L. (end of life):
Additionally, SakuRα Development added in a separate Tweet shortly later that kok2shiX was no longer being updated, and that iOS 10 users should instead look to the semi-untethered socket jailbreak by saturnz for iPhone 5, iPhone 5c, and iPad (4th generation) running iOS 10.3.x instead.
While we are still waiting on the first jailbreak to support iOS 15, the community is developing more and more jailbreak tools for older iOS releases. kok3shi is a 2-year jailbreak for iOS 9 that adds for the first time support for A9 devices.
Once installed, the jailbreak app will exploit the iOS firmware and install Cydia as the default package manager on your device. With Cydia, you can add new repositories and download tweaks and apps for your iPhone or iPad. This is a tool for iOS 9.3.x semi-untethered jailbreak.
kok3shi uses Phoenix kernel exploit by @s1guza and @tihmstar or if selected the cl0ver exploit by @Siguza to access reed and write on the device and install Cydia and other libraries running in the background. The jailbreak was released in 2021, but support for A9 came in May 2022.
kok3shi Jailbreak is released as an IPA package that needs to be sideloaded on your iPhone or iPad with a tool like Sidelaodly. AltStore doesn't support iOS 9. For purposes of this how-to, we will sign and install the kok3shi IPA using the Sideloadly app and a free developer certificate.
kok3shi Jailbreak was never released as an open-source project but on the developer GitHub Repository you can find what patches are used in this jailbreak and view the source code. All components are written in the following languages 73.4% C and 26.6% Objective-C.

But as is the case with any initial jailbreak release, it would t be long before kok3shi received its first update. As such, SakuRα Development released a second public beta version of the kok3shi jailbreak, officially bringing it up to version 1.0 beta 2.
Since kok3shi is only for 64-bit devices, it only supports devices such as the iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air 1, iPad Air 2, iPad mini 2, iPad mini 3, iPad mini 4, and iPod touch 6G. Those using 32-bit devices with iOS 9.3.5-9.3.6 are advised to use the Phoenix jailbreak tool instead, which conveniently received a rare update just yesterday.
Just last year, SakuRα Development released kok3shi, a semi-untethered jailbreak tool for 64-bit iOS 9.3.2-9.3.5 devices. Over time, this particular jailbreak has received a bevy of tiny updates, but one launched just today appears to be particularly substantial.
The latest example would be a new jailbreak tool dubbed kok3shi by SakuRα Development, which was only released just this evening. This jailbreak appears to be semi-untethered just like the tried-and-true Odyssey and unc0ver tools are, however unlike those tools, it supports only 64-bit devices running iOS 9.3.2-9.3.5.
Kok3shi Jailbreak is a tool that allows you to install Cydia on your iPhone or iPad that runs on iOS 9.3.3 to 9.3.6. By using Kok3shi Jailbreak, you can gain access to a wide range of tweaks and modifications that are not available through the official App Store.
You can easily download the jailbreak app to your iPhone/iPad without having a computer, On Our Application Store, we have signed this jailbreak app for online installation.
Step 5: Once you allow it to install, the jailbreak will be downloaded onto your device, and go to your Settings > Profiles > Enterprise Certificates > Trust to allow untrusted developer certificates.

L'anne dernire, le dveloppeur SakuRα a publi kok3shi, un outil de jailbreak semi-untethered pour les appareils iOS 9.3.2-9.3.5 64 bits. Au fil du temps, ce jailbreak particulier a reu une ribambelle de petites mises jour, mais la dernire en date, la 2.1.2, est probablement la plus importante. Elle ajoute le support de nouveaux appareils, ceux ayant une puce A9.
Annonce via le compte Twitter officiel de SakuRα hier, la sortie de kok3shi v2.1.2, qui ajoute la prise en charge des appareils A9 fonctionnant sous iOS 9.3.x - une premire du genre - en plus de mettre en œuvre un correctif pour les problmes de chargement de processus dmons que certains utilisateurs avaient rencontrs.
SakuRα a pris soin de signaler que le support des nouveaux appareils A9 n'a pas t test, mais ceux qui ont des appareils supports et qui souhaitent avoir un jailbreak sur iOS 9.3.x peuvent essayer kok3shi leurs propres risques s'ils le souhaitent.
Le jailbreak kok3shi n'est pas install via AltStore et AltServer comme d'autres outils de jailbreak semi-untethered, et c'est parce que le populaire logiciel de sideloading ne peut pas tre utilis sur iOS 9. Au lieu de cela, les utilisateurs potentiels doivent passer par Sideloady ou directement Xcode pour installer l'application de jailbreak sur leur appareil.
Comme toujours, le fichier .ipa de kok3shi est disponible sur la page web officielle, qui comprend la dernire version en date.
Voici tous les appareils compatibles :
