usbliter8ing my iPhone 11

Introduction

This guide will walk you through my experience using the somewhat new usbliter8 exploit on my iPhone 11.

Follow the guide on https://web.archive.org/web/20260618140950/https://github.com/prdgmshift/usbliter8 by the paradigm shift team.

I had serious issues completing the step of getting into DFU mode. The only thing that worked for me is using this software to get into recovery mode:

After entering recovery mode we follow this guys advice closely and execute the steps to go into DFU mode.

After successfully entering DFU mode(device recognized by iTunes but screen black), we follow the rest of the guide and finally confirm the USB serial number on Windows like this:

Device Manager -> Universal Serial Bus -> right click your Device -> Properties -> Details -> Select Device Instance Path from the dropdown menu

A literal checkm8 level jailbreak in 2026 is nuts, A12X/Z(iPad Pro) remain to be implemented..
