Can't Enable AltJIT on iOS 17

[SpamixOfficial]

The last update (1.7) was supposed to enable JIT for iOS 17, but I still can't get it to work. I've followed the instructions for iOS 17 on the wiki, but when I'm trying to enable altjit using the binary included in AltServer I get a swift error about some .dylib. I have no idea how I should resolve this, any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I'll add the output and the command later today.

EDIT 2: To everyone trying to use anything under MacOS 13, it only works for MacOS 13 and above. For windows users, this does not currently work on windows.

It also does not work for me. I get this error:

Error Description The URL to download the Developer disk image could not be determined.

Failure Reason The URL to download the Developer disk image could not be determined.

Title JIT could not be enabled for PojavLauncher.

Source File AltServer/DeveloperDiskManager.swift

Source Line 150

@IceyeFPV That seems to be normal though. To enable on iOS 17 you got to follow some specific instructions: https://faq.altstore.io/how-to-use-altstore/altjit

[IceyeFPV]

I know and i did i even specifically got a mac for this because it does not work on windows. 😅

[SpamixOfficial]

@IceyeFPV Oh sorry. I thought you just tried to press the enable JIT button, not do the funny commands in the terminal

[SpamixOfficial]

here's the output of /Applications/AltServer.app/Contents/MacOS/altjit:

Macmini:MacOS USERNAME$ ./altjit

So is this error happening when you click 'Enable JIT' on AltServer or are you trying to do this all through Terminal?

I first tried using the button, which gave me the developer disk error, then I tried through the terminal. Both are not working.

[SpamixOfficial]

The terminal gave me that error btw

[SpamixOfficial]

Any idea what the solution might be? @shanegillio

[shanegillio]

You can try and download Xcode and see if that helps it resolve. It seems like it may be using the incorrect python version

I have xcode installed. Latest one is also not possible since i run MacOS 12

[CitrusIntellect]

Same bro same

[DwifteJB]

getting same error, seems to be because the library was added on MacOS 13, and I'm running MacOS 12

[CitrusIntellect]

Welp, time to do pain again :\

[SpamixOfficial]

getting same error, seems to be because the library was added on MacOS 13, and I'm running MacOS 12

Hmmmm okay. Is there any way to fix this on 12 then?

or possibly on Mac OS 11.7 for me?

Don't believe you can, you can try this but it does wipe your data. Worked for me on MacOS 13.6

Guys to fix this issue

1. We should use Mac OS 13.5 or newer on mac/macVM
2. Follow the instructions for enabling Jit on iOS 17
3. Make sure your device is connected with lightning cable to your mac/macVM
4. Enjoy

The sad things -

1. I don’t have a Mac 😭
2. Every time i stuck on the apple logo or boot loop with a error when I try to install macOS 13 or newer on VMware workstation 17 😭

I followed every steps in FAQ. Is Pythone version issue?

[hovikgas]

@leixu2txtek I have the same error! I couldn't find anyone else with the same error... I kept getting the error that pymobiledevice3 was not installed, even though I had it installed and would get confirmation with the Activated that would show when I ran pymobiledevice3 activation state.

So, as per the instructions on the FAQ, I went and downloaded Xcode and ran /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/python3 -m pip install -U pymobiledevice3

and now run into the exact same errors as you. Well, to be precise, I'm not trying to install UTM SE, so obviously my title says DolphiniOS, and my executableURL is different (I'm assuming because you're using Apple Silicon?).

Otherwise, I'm also on macOS 14(.1.1) and I guess my iPhone 14 Pro Max being on 17.1.1 also doesn't make a difference. It might be a Python version issue, because my conda environment is on Python 3.8.17, whereas the one that came with Xcode is Python 3.9.6, which I'm assuming is the one you are also using?

[nitantsoni]

I too am facing this same issue, when trying to enable JIT using AltStore on iOS 17. Tried using both Python versions on my system. The externally installed from 3.10 and 3.9 that comes built-in. On macOS 14

[CitrusIntellect]

Can someone find a fix please?

I am running shell in my intel macbook pro. And I already installed Xcode.

Now I'm testing in my M2 Mac mini, waiting for good news. :)

[SpamixOfficial]

I would really appreciate if they could find a fix for MacOS versions prior to 13 since some people (like me) have software that depends on earlier versions of MacOS, like 12.
