Apple TV 4K error code -26
Tell us about your setup:
- What iDevice are you using? Apple TV 4K
- On what version of iOS is it? tvOS 13.4.8
- What version of checkra1n are you using? 0.10.2
- What is your host system (OS version? Hackintosh? VM? etc.)? MacBook Pro 2015, MacOS 10.15.6
- How are you connecting to the device (USB-A? USB-C? Apple/3rd party cable? Through a USB hub?)? USB-A with breakout cable
What are the steps to reproduce the issue?
- Put the Apple TV 4K in DFU mode
- Click start on Checkra1n
...
What do you expect, and what is happening instead? Except my device to start in jailbreak mode but I get an -26 error code.
Does the issue also occur if you tick "Safe Mode" in the checkra1n options? Yes
Any other info, error logs, screenshots, ...?
If that can help others, I was able to boot my Apple TV in jailbroken mode without any problem by using checkra1n on a Linux device.
I have the same issue but I have got a completely bricked Apple TV 4k (just blinking). With the breakout-cable and iTunes I can get into the Apple TV but there's no software to download (because just OTS is possible).
With checkra1n I get the samer error as sy6sy2. Just wanna know which Linux OS you were using? I don't have Linux but my son-in-law can setup a computer with the same if he knows which one.
Best regards from Austria
You can use any linux distribution I guess. I use Debian based distribution in my case (Ubuntu).
WOW - thank you very much for your help. I'll ask him on weekend and will tell you the result! Many thanks for your fast support!!!
Unfortunately this also didn't work. The same error like on my iMac... My son-in-law tried a lot of things but didn't get further than me on Linux. In his opinion (which is also my opinion) the internal OS of the Apple TV 4K has a bug so if the OS isn't recognized or a wrong or older version checkra1n couldn't start...
I think it's for the trash-bin now...
Hello @sy6sy2 @chryslerdriver My Apple TV4K has bricked again. Previously it's bricked I am power on then it's going to DFU mode and no displaying on TV screen. But that time I am using checkra1n and jailbreak it. That time it started and worked fine. That time my tvOS version was under 13 i think but now it's back to being bricked now my version is tvOS (15.1.1). But unfortunately checkra1n is (0.12.4 Beta) version so it does not support my (tvOS 15.1.1) Can you please give me some idea about it because I successfully installed a micro usb connector inside the Apple TV4K logic board. but unfortunately apple is not giving the IPSW file it's all tvOS update by OTA.
