iOS 17 Support

[Prabh-Saini]

Upon changing the location of a device running the iOS 17 Beta, the following error occurs:

Your device's iOS version is not supported at this time.

Although it appears to be a simple fix, upon further research, Apple has introduced "personalized" developer images. At the very least it will require a full rewrite of DeveloperImageHelper.cs, and likely further files. pymobiledevice3 has got partial support for this but appears to have issues while changing the location.

[master131]

Thanks for the heads up - iOS 17 didn't even cross my mind as being a potential issue - I'll spend some time this weekend with the beta and see if I can get something working (at least image mounting at a minimum).

[Dan-Wood]

I really should have checked here before upgrading to IOS 17 :(

[master131]

I had a bit of a play around, but there appears to be core changes to the communication that's used for the new "personalised" image mounter. I've tried pulling the "personalization identifiers" from my device using ilibmobiledevice and don't seem to be having much luck (seems to work fine with pymobiledevice3) - unfortunately I might need to wait for an update to the image mounter utility in order to fix iFakeLocation support for iOS 17.

libimobiledevice/libimobiledevice#1452

[master131]

Take that back, the playing around continues...

[master131]

So an update on this, I have succesfully ported the personalized image mounter code from pymobiledevice3 to iFakeLocation (based on libimobiledevice). As a result, future releases of iFakeLocation will have to be licensed under GPLv3 (as per the terms of that license) - this is an early warning to any developers using iFakeLocation code.

The simulate location service still does not work as that communicates over a new "RemoteXPC" protocol; I'm still waiting for the folks over at pymobiledevice3 to crack it.

doronz88/pymobiledevice3#471

[Prabh-Saini]

This is wonderful, although my question is that will Windows be supported? Can it create these personalized connections without Xcode?

[master131]

Yes, I have done it entirely from Windows without issue.

[doronz88]

Starting at v2.2.0, the location simulation is fully supported. They removed the dtsimulatelocation which was responsible for the old simulations and replaced it with a DVT channel.

You can simulate it using:

pymobiledevice3 developer simulate-location set --rsd fd41:8efc:c0f8::1 60364 --
 40.690008 -74.045843

BTW, still working on a standalone tunnel which won't rely on the RSD tunnel created by remotepairingd. If anyone is willing to try adapting the tunnel to other platforms, feel free to ask me anything :)

Please direct these type of questions to the pymobiledevice3 project.

[master131]

Just an update on this one - I haven't progressed any further on this one. pymobiledevice3 does support iOS 17 for simulating a location now but:

• It only works on Mac/Linux (due to requiring use of a TAP device)
• Requires root permission to create a tunnel interface

While I can try and port these functionalities to iFakeLocation (or be lazy and write a wrapper around pymobiledevice3), it still means that Windows will remain unsupported at this point in time.

[jossmoog]

I assume the error I'm receiving on Mac with 14 Pro Max running iOS 17.0 (21A329) is related to this thread?

'The developer images for the specified device are missing.'

Any ETA on images?

That would explain why iAnyGo is supporting iOS 17 on Mac only then

It's not just a matter of images, it's a basically a rewrite of iFakeLocation from the ground up to support iOS 17. Can't give any ETAs as I do this during my free time and right now the only known working method doesn't support Windows. Someone has mentioned iAnyGo so you can give that a go in the meantime.

Thank you Master131 for all your hard work, we will patiently wait for the new developer images support for ios17. Cheers.

Hello @master131 ,

Currently, I'm on iOS 17.0.1 and I am getting error for not getting the developer image can you please help if you have some time?
I want to appreciate the amazing work you are doing.

Thanks

It's a known issue with iOS 17. Apple changed the way developer images are created. The only way to change location at the moment is to use either iAnyGo or pymobiledevice3. Both of these require macOS to run. Hopefully in the near future there will be an automated method such as iFakeLocation on macOS and windows.

[rosst1]

Hello

Will ifakelocation be updated to work with ios 17 on windows at all.

Thanks

[master131]

Not at this stage, there is no known working method for Windows.

[davesc63]

Thanks @master131 for iFakeLocation! It's been awesome
Will you be updating to support iOS 17 and MacOS? or are you cutting it here?

[amanojyakumusou]

私もiOS17の端末にifakelocationが対応することを願っています。私はWindowsを使用しています。端末はiphone11です。
サポートする予定があるかは私も知りたいです。

[idonen]

iAnyGo windows version already supports iOS17 modification location.

Try this out. For a very specific use-case: https://github.com/davesc63/fuel-spoof

Hi,

Thankyou for putting it all together. However, it is giving me an error after selecting the fuel type

Thanks for trying it out!

it looks like you’re missing “jq”
brew install jq

this is used to filter the api response data and extract the key/values that we want. I will add a check for jq installation at the start

also I noticed that your “sh” isn’t liking the the echo commands. Try launching with just “./fuel-spoof.sh”

Thank you so much. It worked.

hiii i want to use this but ima really basic user idk much about code at all so if there a way for the directions to b simplified? if not it’s ok ill just wait & also this works for the latest version of ios 17 bc the whole gas prices thing is a little confusing but again if it cant b explained in lamenz terms then thank youuu

Good news!
I am working on some easier options / ideas

1. Current script - introduce a way to install the prerequisites
2. A completely self-contained web experience similar to iFakelocation but written in python

[zarigzz]

lol ok i am excited for it the second option sounds a little clearer😂 but thank you i will stay tuned!

@davesc63 I can get iphone to spoof using your script, but when I try to lock it is giving me Error A01. Using 7-11 app version 2.18.5.47213 on ios 17.2.1. Wonder if 7-11 can detect pymobiledevice3 spoofing now?

[Zackariyya]

Hi @master131 , pymobiledevice3 now supports RSD Tunnel on Windows.

& doronz88/pymobiledevice3#797

This is just a heads-up to everyone waiting for a solution in this thread.
I have raised a PR to @master131 with a working solution, but it is quite a lot of code (basically a full rewrite) and might take a while to review it.
If anyone is keen to test the code, take it from the PR. I could only test it on my iPad with iOS 17 on a Windows machine, so other setup tests would be welcome.

[davesc63]

I’ve created a pure python backend that doesn’t require the end user to install python.

The Mac version is in beta testing right now. Windows coming shortly.

Full iOS 17 and below supported

If anyone wants to test it out:

Hey @luizbon - brilliant work!

I got your code working on Windows 11 machine (iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 17.3.1) - many thanks for this.

when i am trying to download this only a package pops up no application therefore i cannot use when the application did pop up it would show an image of the loco and the application wouldnt open i am installing sudo rn

***on mac

[zarigzz]

update nothing loads after splash screen and every time app is launched it says it would like to make changes

[davesc63]

@zarigzz - check the beta notes. You are required to enter your admin password on mac as admin permissions are required to create the secure tunnel to the iOS device

[zarigzz]

the tunnel is never created one the image dissapears

[zarigzz]

once

This is because you can only lock in in your state / local area due to IP detection, I assume. In the script if you change

local selected_data=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.regions[] | select(.region == "All").prices[] | select(.type == "'"$choice"'")')

All to your location, such as NSW it'll work fine.

On Windows 11, keep getting iTunes error (i.e. static splash screen) despite having it installed and file placed in the iTunes root folder..must be doing something wrong I guess?

-edit-

All good, will just use ianygo for the time being. Thanks for taking time to make this app though! looking forward to the official release.

@gnnnnnnnnnnn - Try out the latest windows beta: https://github.com/davesc63/GeoPort/releases/tag/beta
Removed the hard fail check for iTunes

Try 3uTools. Forget this one. It's been too long.

You should try https://geoport.me

It has supported iOS17+ for months now
