Help/Support Can't access jailbroken games from IOS 13 device when installing .deb files

SamusWay · February 4, 2021

Hello all, I'm using an iPad Pro 12.9 inch 3rd gen (IOS 13.7).

I am currently using Sileo from Odyssey jailbreak.

I have Filza, PreferenceLoader, NewTerm, and Libhooker(Cydia Substrate)

I have followed all the steps I could have possibly done as it is shown in the bullet points down below in my own research of trying to figure this out.

Installation Instructions:
STEP 1: Download the .deb Cydia hack file from the link above.
STEP 2: Copy the file over to your iDevice using any of the file managers mentioned above or skip this step if you're downloading from your iDevice.
STEP 3: Using iFile or Filza, browse to where you saved the downloaded .deb file and tap on it.
STEP 4: Once you tap on the file, you will then need to press on 'Installer' or 'Install' from the options on your screen.
STEP 5: Let iFile / Filza finish the cheat installation. Make sure it successfully installs, otherwise see the note below.
STEP 6: Now open your iDevice settings and scroll down until you see the settings for this cheat and tap on it. If the hack is a Mod Menu, the cheat features can be toggled in-game.
STEP 7: Turn on the features you want and play the game. You may need to follow further instructions inside the hack's popup in-game.
Odyssey specific installation method
Sileo's "Cydia Substrate" problem solved
.deb file + need the app from app store method

Problem: For the instruction #1, everything is good up until step 5-7. Someone had the same problem as I did @Kampurz. And this person's installation log in their post (this) looks the same as mine:

According to @Laxus, this installation log is perfect and ready to go. However, there was a continuing problem where the .deb file would simply not be installed into the app. So, @Kampurz made their own post (this) covering how to install hacks (.deb files) and make it work in Odyssey jailbroken devices. However, even with their (Kampurz) method I could not get it to work!

Confusion: I am aware that not every hacks are mod menus, sometimes they are simply "tweaked" after the installation. However, when checking the device settings after .deb file installation? Nothing. Respring and re-jailbreaking and trying the entire method again? Nothing. I am really lost on how to fix this issue.

Update: I tried the all instructions more carefully and @Kampurz graciously gave me extra guidance:

"Only play with the libhooker configuration if the NewTerm console step didn't work.

For now, put libhooker configuration back to default settings (no forced override), and only do the NewTerm command. When you install the mod from filza, you also don't need to do uicache, just hit done.

Also the command line you inputted was wrong: don't forget the first "sudo + space"

sudo /etc/rc.d/libhooker && sudo ldrestart " - @Kampurz

*unfortunately it still didn't work for me :(( *
