Usage

Note: requires macOS + existing jailbreak

Get up and running

This method works on 14.0-14.6. 14.7 (14.7b1)-14.8.1 requires launchd replacement (see launchd.c), which is less safe.

  1. Ensure you have ldid from Procursus Team.
  2. Modify haxx.c to include your own code (if you need it).
  3. Run make to build. If you're not on macOS, specify TARGET_SYSROOT
  4. On the device, Copy /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/CoreAnalytics.framework/Support/analyticsd to /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/CoreAnalytics.framework/Support/analyticsd.back
  5. Then replace /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/CoreAnalytics.framework/Support/analyticsd with /usr/bin/fileproviderctl
  6. Create the /private/var/haxx directory, mode should be 0777
  7. Copy fileproviderctl_internal and haxx generated from the build to /usr/local/bin on the device, mode should be 0755.
  8. Profit.

Fixing fileproviderctl

After doing the above steps, fileproviderctl will be broken, to fix it do the following steps

  1. Grab a copy of /usr/bin/fileproviderctl on your device to your mac
  2. Patch the binary with GNU sed: gsed -i 's|/usr/local/bin/fileproviderctl_internal|/usr/local/bin/fileproviderctl_XXXXXXXX|g' fileproviderctl
  3. Resign it: codesign -s "Worth Doing Badly iPhone OS Application Signing" --preserve-metadata=entitlements --force fileproviderctl
  4. Put the fixed binary back onto your device.

Removal

To remove the installation, do the following steps

  1. Copy /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/CoreAnalytics.framework/Support/analyticsd to /usr/bin/fileproviderctl
  2. Move /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/CoreAnalytics.framework/Support/analyticsd.back to /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/CoreAnalytics.framework/Support/analyticsd
  3. Delete /var/haxx, /usr/local/bin/fileproviderctl_internal as well as /usr/local/bin/haxx
