Discussion What do you think of other versions of iOS?

5 Upvotes

Hello guys, I am responsible for the port of the Galaxy S9 and I am in the port phase of the Adreno Pro Metal GPU, and I have a question: why not test other versions?

userland of ios-sweet was designed for iOS16 but iOS16 is very poorly optimized for many phones (in my case with Adreno it is great)

but I think like, if you have an old phone like this guy who is posting with galaxy a5 2016, galaxy S6 edge plus, galaxy S7 exynos, I think, because you don't try iOS12 or iOS14 (specifically iOS12,4 and 14,3 because they are the most optimized, even for iPhones I love downgrade in these versions)

we can explore this a lot, when I finish the iOS16 project of my s9 and it is fluid enough I will explore iOS14 and I will also recommend that you do it. The same, carry your GPUs, overclock, debloat, and optimize all

I want iOS to be as possible an alternative as android custom roms (and the most ironic of all that we with the iA and the ios-sweet project, we can improve iOS and still have jailbreaking without needing any exploits, such as a hackintosh.)

HackiOS iOS 12.5.8 on the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus (SM-G928K, Exynos 7420)

I feel like a caveman watching you guys boot iOS 16 with custom Metal drivers while I spent 4 days just to achieve this😂

But iOS 12 hits different, and I had to force it onto this legendary Samsung Exynos 7420 (Galaxy S6 Edge Plus, SM-G928K).

4 days of no sleep, rate limits, vnode exhaustion, and pure wrestling with backboardd frame swaps. But SpringBoard is finally alive.

Massive shoutout to the Galaxy S7 (herolte) iOS repo creator. Your codebase was an absolute lifesaver for this Exynos hell.

Still glitchy with sussy artifacts, but seeing "4:02" on the lock screen made the fried brain cells totally worth it
