airsquared edited this page May 29, 2021 · 19 revisions

blobsaver can be installed from releases like the other OS's for 64-bit x86 machines. If you're using a Raspberry Pi, or any other architecture, you will need to compile blobsaver yourself.

Instructions to Compile

  1. Download the source code for the release you want. It is recommended to use the source code of a particular tag or release instead of downloading latest commit, which may contain bugs.
  2. Compile this fork of tsschecker on your device and replace the file in dist/linux/tsschecker with your tsschecker compiled for ARM.
  3. Install JDK 16 for your computer.
  4. Install the libraries libimobiledevice and libirecovery, which should be in your distributions default repositories.
  5. Run ./gradlew build in the root of the repository and you should have the the compiled files in the directory build/distributions
