Electra iOS 11.3.1 Download Direct to Public Release – Confirmed by CoolStar

Ian Beer discovered a kernel exploit in Apple’s iOS 11.3.1 and the security analyst decided to unveil it to the entire jailbreaking community. Seeing this, CoolStar didn’t waste any time and started working on an Electra iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak tool and the hacker has already been able to crack the operating system. However, there are still some issues that CoolStar needs to fix before releasing the tool.

Electra iOS 11.3.1 Jailbreak

A couple of days ago CoolStar announced that he managed to create a successful Electra iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak tool. Not just that, but CoolStar posted a couple of screenshots of an iPhone 8 which was running on the said operating system and this got jailbreak fans excited. On the downside of things, CoolStar said that he still needed a couple of more days before he could launch the tool.

Fixing Bugs

Even though CoolStar’s Electra iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak was successful in installing Cydia, there were still some bugs that he needed to fix. CoolStar said that he doesn’t want to launch an incomplete jailbreak tool and that removing bugs was the next thing to do. However, this isn’t the only thing that CoolStar announced.

Direct Public Release

While jailbreak fans might be upset with the fact that CoolStar is taking his time with the highly anticipated Electra iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak, the hacker said that he will launch the tool directly to public release. Therefore, there will not be a public beta or developer build and jailbreak fans will be able to install it right from the start.

We should also mention that CoolStar is advising iPhone owners to install iOS 11.1.2 on their smartphones in order to be ready for when the Electra iOS 11.3.1 comes out. Nonetheless, we will keep readers updated about CoolStar’s latest announcements.

iOS 11.3.1 Jailbreak Available by CoolStar

The entire iOS jailbreak community has been waiting for a new jailbreak tool ever since Ian Beer discovered a kernel exploit in iOS 11.3.1. CoolStar who is famous for managing to create some of the most elaborate jailbreak tools has said that he is going to use the kernel exploit found by Ian Beer and create a complete Electra iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak, and it looks like CoolStar is almost ready to release it.

iOS 11.3.1 Successfully Jailbroken

CoolStar kept on posting updates on the highly anticipated jailbreak tool and it seemed like the developer is not able to do it. Luckily, CoolStar finally managed to successfully create an iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak tool and he provided pictures in order to prove that.

Apple started rolling out iOS 11.4.1 and this is what probably motivated CoolStar to hurry up and create the iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak tool. Nonetheless, CoolStar’s pictures show that he managed to install Cydia and Anemone which is a theming engine on an Apple device that is running iOS 11.3.1.

Not Ready Yet

While the tool developed by CoolStar might make it look like the jailbreaking community is victorious, this is not the case. CoolStar is saying that even though he managed to install Cydia and Anemone, iOS 11.3.1 is super buggy and it’s not ready to be released.

Developer Account No Longer Required

On the bright side of things, CoolStar also mentioned that a $99 developer account is not going to be required in order to jailbreak iOS 11.3.1. This means that everyone will be able to unlock their iPhone or iPad once CoolStar manages to get rid of the bugs and releases the public version of the Electra iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak tool. From the looks of it, CoolStar is going to need one more week before that happens.

Electra iOS 11.3.1 Jailbreak Tool – Kernel Exploit and Coolstar News

The latest news in the jailbreaking community is pointing towards the fact that an Electra iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak is coming. Ian Beer was the one who found an exploit in iOS 11.3.1 and he didn’t hesitate from unveiling it so that other developers such as Coolstar could create a jailbreak. In fact, Ian Beer and Coolstar announced that they are teaming up in order to create the highly anticipated iOS 11.3.1 full jailbreak.

iOS 11.3.1 Kernel Exploit

In case you didn’t know, Ian Beer is a renowned developer who works in Google’s Project Zero team. The developer has a reputation for always finding exploits in Apple’s iOS and the best thing about this is that Ian Beer unveils the exploits for iOS jailbreakers to use. Moreover, Ian Beer announced on June 5th that he found an iOS 11.3.1 kernel exploit and that Coolstar is already working on breaking that version of iOS.

Coolstar

As the entire iOS jailbreak community is waiting for Coolstar to launch the Electra iOS 11.3.1 tool, the developer announced over Twitter that “he has all the pieces collected” and all that’s left now is to put them together. In addition, the developer also mentioned that he is going to update the Electra jailbreak tool which currently supports iOS 11 and iOS 11.1.2 to support iOS 11.3.1.

Increased Storage Space

We don’t have that much information about the upcoming jailbreak tool, but we do know that it will require more storage space than all previous jailbreak tools. Coolstar said that the reason behind this is that the jailbreak method for iOS 11.3.1 is different than everything he created before.

Nonetheless, Coolstar has yet to announce an official launch date for the Electra iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak tool, but rumor has it that the developer is planning to launch it during the upcoming week.

iOS 11.3.1 Jailbreak Tool Electra – An Update After the Exploit Release

The jailbreaking community has been impatiently waiting for another update about the Electra iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak tool. From the news that we have gathered so far, we know by now that Electra for iOS 11.3.1 is bound to happen. This is due to the latest Ian Beer exploit, a confirmed public release and we know of this from CoolStar as well.

According to the latest posts from CoolStar, all the needed components to update Electra already exist and at the moment he is working on renovating the tool. CoolStar has also confirmed that all the important pieces for the jailbreak have been put together and now he just has to put them all in the right place, while making sure that Electra will be able to perform in an efficient way. The jailbreak tool has to sustain all supported devices and firmware editions.

However, it is important to remember that CoolStar will work for now on creating a jailbreak tool for individuals who have a paid Apple Developer account. For the moment, these users will be prioritized. So most probably the public will not be able to have access to the iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak tool.

Nonetheless, this is not to say that users should pay $99 for a paid developer account from Apple. CoolStar actually advised people not to do this and wait for additional information about a public-facing release.

There has been no timeframe provided for the expected release. As you can probably imagine, having all the necessary components of the jailbreak tool is maybe just half of the work. Putting all pieces together, fixing technical glitches and developing something that supports all compatible firmware models and devices requires a lot of hard work. The tool has to be stable and reliable before it is launched to the public.

We will keep you updated if any additional progress is made. We also advise you to have your device prepared on iOS 11.3.1, while Apple is still signing the firmware.
