# CHECKRA1N JAILBREAK INFO              \*\*READ ME BEFORE ANYTHING\*\*

```
EVEN IF YOU ARE KNOWLEDGEABLE AT JAILBREAKING, READ THROUGH THIS COMPLETELY!!!
```

&#x20;                  **\*\*BEFORE YOU JAILBREAK AND/OR USE ANY OF THIS INFORMATION\*\***\
\
\&#xNAN;*To ensure that you properly Jailbreak using CheckRa1n, **please read this entire*** ***page!** It’s really not complicated. It only takes like maybe 3 minutes to jailbreak, it really couldn’t be easier, but this information is really good to know **before and after** jailbreaking!*

**\*\*IMPORTANT\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\***

**Any versions above IOS 13.7 should ABSOLUTELY NOT HAVE PASSCODE LOCK, FACE ID, OR FINGERPRINT ID ENABLED DURING THE JAILBREAK PROCESS! IT WILL FAIL EVERY TIME!**

**\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\***

**\*\*IMPORTANT\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\***

**If you are stuck in a loading loop, boot loop, or blank screen DO NOT RESTORE YOUR DEVICE!** *There are 2 MUCH easier and better options:*

1\. Plug your phone in and re-jailbreak in **Safe Mode**, **remove the tweak(s)** that caused the issue, and re-jailbreak **without** **Safe Mode**.

*(refer to "Jailbreak in Safe Mode" if you don't know how)*

2\. **HARD RESET** that will **not hurt your device, delete your data, or ruin your ability to jailbreak.**

*\[This works great if your phone isn't being detected on your computer for method 1]*&#x20;

*(refer to the “How to Hard Reset” for instructions)*

**\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\***

* I **highly recommend** installing the **essential files** from my list before installing tweaks.              *(Especially "Alderis Color Picker")*
* After the jailbreak is done and your phone turns on, unlock your phone and just sit for a second. You will notice the CheckRa1n app appear on the first available spot. From here you just open it and install Cydia. *Boom, you’re done.*
* **Remember that if you’re on a new version like IOS 14 & up, be more careful about what tweaks you get** because not all of the developers for them may have updated the tweaks to be compatible. **AT THE SAME TIME—** Many tweaks are perfectly compatible with these versions, but they won’t say so in the description, or they may even say they aren’t compatible, even if they are. **Just be smart and use this guide if you run into any trouble!**
* If you re-jailbreak and your tweaks seem to be disabled or not on, but they are still showing up in Cydia, **DON'T PANIC!** All you have to do is **go into ICleaner Pro** and **press "Clean" at the top right.** It might make you watch an ad but once that is done **just press yes** to respring your device!
* **BE PATIENT** with respring time. **The more tweaks you install the longer you phone takes to fully respring.** *With that being said,* if the respring takes far too long then your tweaks either bugged out *(just re-jailbreak)* **or** you installed a bad tweak *(re-jailbreak in safe mode and uninstall it, refer to "Jailbreak in Safe Mode" for instructions)*
* Be sure to look at my **Bad Tweaks list before installing a tweak,** *I find bad tweaks so YOU don’t have to.*
* **I HIGHLY RECOMMEND** that you **don’t** change a lot of tweak settings at once **before** you apply and respring. **Do no more than 2-4 minor changes in a tweak before applying and respringing.**
* **Always** check the “Allow Untested Versions” box
* **Verbose Boot** just makes the jailbreak program coding look cool on your phone, it is not essential or hurtful to the jailbreak process
* If you are on **newer or untested** IOS version you **must** check “Skip A## BPR check”
* **Dark Blockchain** literally does nothing, it’s some kind of meme or inside joke to the developers or something, **just ignore it.**
