iOS 15, macOS Monterey, and JIT Support
Added 2021-06-14 21:55:48 +0000 UTC
Been a while since my last update, hope you've all been enjoying playing Nintendo DS games with Delta!
As some of you may know, the first iOS 15 beta was released to developers last week, and unfortunately it introduced a new code signature version that prevented AltStore and any sideloaded apps from launching. The good news is I've spent the past week reverse engineering this new code signature version, and I believe I've finally cracked it 🥳 As a result, AltStore 1.4.6b and AltServer 1.5b5 are now available, and bring full support for sideloading apps on iOS 15!
While I've confirmed my fix works to install both AltStore and Delta on iOS 15, I need y'alls help testing as many apps as possible to ensure my fix covers all edge cases. If you've already updated to iOS 15, you must manually update AltStore by downloading the attached AltServer beta and using it to re-install AltStore (you do not need to delete AltStore first). If you are still on iOS 14, you can update AltStore normally in-app.
Additionally, this macOS AltServer beta includes two additional features. Besides adding support for macOS Monterey beta 1, AltServer for macOS also includes the brand new "AltJIT" feature, which allows you to enable JIT compilation for any app on iOS 14 or later (including iOS 15). For now, you can manually enable JIT for any sideloaded app by selecting it from the "Enable JIT" menu option (as seen in the above screenshot), and soon I will release a framework developers can integrate with their apps that will allow them to automatically enable JIT whenever they're on the same WiFi as AltServer. As for Windows, I plan to include AltJIT support in the next AltServer beta.
As always, thanks everyone for your help testing! Once I've confirmed this code signing fix works for all apps, I plan to release this update to everyone else ASAP 🙏
Ok got the update installed but when I open AltStore it’s showing 2 AltStore apps in the list ??????????

What benefits would enabling JIT on an app offer e.g Delta?

Trying to install AltStore on my iPhone 11 Pro with AltServer 1.5b5 installed on Mac Mojave 10.14.6 and I get an error: "Could not communicate with a helper application." I removed and reinstalled the app and the mail plugin with no success. Any suggestions?

For those still having issues make sure you are running Mac OS 11.4. That fixed it for me.

I was able to succesfully install the beta on my iPadOS 15 device, but can't get the new JIT stuff working. Tried enabling it on the UTM app, but get "Debug Server error -256". Tried other apps with the same result. Am I missing something about how this is supposed to work, or is it just broken?

How the fuck do you update AltStore?! I'm on 14.3 and the damn server isn't letting me update altstore and I can't reinstall AltStore through AltServer or risk losing all the apps. What the hell is going on?

Well, after install (either AltStore or IPA's - it says "Untrusted Developer" in a pop up. Got to trust them, but the problem is..nothing is showing up in settings, beside the iOS 15 Beta profile :S so I can't continue. Bug in iOS 15 beta 2 or???

In iOS15 you can’t have other devices using the same beta linked accounts. Multi linked beta accounts only work with iOS14.x devices.

Just in time compiler, let’s just say apps like UTM and other emulators will run a lot better :) here’s a formal definition “code that involves compilation during execution of a program (at run time) rather than before execution.” Source :Wikipedia

I was able to resign Cercube and Rocket for Instagram successfully and was able to install DiOS (beta) but could not get JIT working. Debug server error -256. I see others have this too. The resigner works just fine. I heard you can use multiple accounts to get around the limit, is this possible with beta?
Dallas Groot
2021-06-20 01:27:08 +0000 UTC
It doesn't work for me :/ altstore installs but every other install crashes before it finishes. EDIT: I looked at the comments and like Will! said, uninstalling then reinstalling alt server then reinstalling AltStore worked.
2021-06-19 22:08:19 +0000 UTC
Does UTM support JIT signing? I get error 256 when I try to sign the „JIT“ version of the app. Does it need to be updated first?

Just wanted to let you know that jit is working perfectly with DolphiniOS! At first I was using powershell to load the app but this new update changes that! Thanks for all the work that you do!

iPhone 12 Pro Max. My install worked fine. At first I got the message that my apple ID has been locked, but it wasn't, I logged into Apple fine and the app store worked fine. I tried it a few more times (it kept saying successful install and I kept restarting the phone but nothing was there.) after the 3rd time AltStore came up on the phone. It would be great if we could delete apps directly from AltStore, is that possible?
Edit: I forgot to mention, I am a developer and I installed this with my developer Apple ID, but everything expires in 7 days not 1 year. Thoughts?

Hey I'm running Dolphinios 3.1.1 (current) and the app is able to install (via alt server external source) and open without a problem however I am now getting a "Nkit warning on all of my gamecube/wii games and they crash immediately. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Delta works just fine so I don't know if its just a setting in Dolphin, the roms themselves or the JIT.

Upon trying to enable JIT, I encounter an error. Is that a problem on my end or something else? The last comment about it was simply deleted, so I am not sure.

Installed AltStore onto iOS 15 using AltServer beta and saw the "Untrusted Developer" message. I went on and checked the Settings app in "General" then "VPN & Device Management" but I don't see any untrusted profile there. Any ideas?

cant speak to the "dolphinios" had same issue with altstore. with getting alstore to update. deleted altstore, reboot, reinstall and no longer showed i had to update. current altstore version installed 1.4.6b ios 15 and first sideloaded app worked no issue.
laragoza
2021-06-14 23:01:06 +0000 UTC
i've updated altstore and that opens fine now, but every app I refresh still behaves as if it hasn't been updated and gives the popup. do I need to manually sideload them again or something?
Emma (dumb fox)
2021-06-14 22:58:26 +0000 UTC
Final Edit?
Okay, solved.
1. I'm not sure why, but it seems running the setup/installer wasn't updating AltServer for Windows. I uninstalled AltServer and then reinstalled it. That got me on the correct version of AltServer.
2. I didn't realize that there would be a new AltStore application, which was separate from the previously installed version. Once I opened the correct AltStore application, I was able to sideload and install as expected.
I guess I'll keep the stuff below in case anybody else suffers from similar ineptitude.
Edit: I think I've effed something up, as the bottom of the settings screen reports it as Altstore 1.4.5....
Edit 2: I guess it can't download the newer version of the AltStore because that crashes as well when I try to install?
Edit 3: Tried deleting and reinstalling AltStore using AltServer, and was met with the same behavior
I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong here, but I'm having an issue where AltStore crashes when I try to refresh a sideloaded app or when I try and sideload a new app. It crashes right at the end of the process.
I've tried a reboot, deleting and reinstalling the sideloaded app. Worth noting that I see the same behavior when I try to install the beta version of Delta from the Altstore itself.
If there's any info I can provide, let me know!
Will!
