On Wednesday, Jay Freeman (saurik) has released an updated version of the Cydia Substrate jailbreak extension package in Cydia that aims to be more powerful for developers. Version 0.9.5100 includes a variety of new highly-requested abilities for developers to take advantage of; for example, the new Cydia Substrate can now inject into even more of iOS 8's various daemons.
All of the new features in Cydia Substrate 0.9.5100 include:
- Injecting into more iOS 8 daemons
- Finding more private symbols
- Moving more arm64 instructions
- Hooking even shorter armv7 functions
The more powerful Cydia Substrate will allow iOS developers to do more with their Cydia tweaks and make them not only more powerful, but also more efficient. It's mostly for developers, so the average user will not gain any additional functionality from the extension with this update, although it's recommended that everyone update to the latest version of Cydia Substrate via the "Changes" tab in the Cydia application.
