is there anyway to jailbreak ios 12.1.2 on an iphone x? Back in the day it was easy as heck now i find all these youtube videos saying to dl some app and more apps to get cydia and its a bad cycle that results in deleting the downloads and nothing is ever installed. I have been googling all day to figure this out. I just want it so i can have more icons on bottom and run other cool cydia apps.
[doublepost=1547338029][/doublepost]Plus i dont trust 3rd party webpages that tell me to install and injected app i have tried that too but it fails to ever actually install cydia and like I stated its a waste of time that results in no cydia.
 
Ok good to know thanks for the info. You think there ever will be?
 
There are rumors of a 12.1.0 and 12.1.1 jailbreak in the works, but Cydia is dead for good. Other storefronts for jailbreaks will have to take its place
Why is Cydia dead? I just used it yesterday to install/remove a few tweaks.

I thought just the purchasing aspect of Cydia was dead?
It's disabled. Until the bug with Paypal is fixed. When that happens is anyone's guess, but it doesn't mean alternate methods can't be used.

A lot of devs for instance have storefronts, or you can contact them to make a buy.

You're right aside from one thing;
The developer responsible for the backend of Cydia's storefront has said he loses money on it, and won't fix the bug and re-enable the service. Cydia will stick around as it is, but it won't get updated. Other methods for purchasing will stay and Cydia will as it is, but its main repo's purchasing mechanism won't come back.

Cydia existed long before it became a storefront. It's far from dead.
