Help/Support Is it worth to Jailbreak 16 GB device ? + Installing Cydia correctly

Dav0O7 · February 19, 2019

1) I'm using 64-bit idevice with 16GB storage (on IOS11.4) and i wonder if its worth to jailbreak it for app hacking and some other tweaks for screen, etc.. I'm asking this, because it's my main phone and i have already used 9.1Gb of it with apps like Facebook, Whatsapp, etc. Don't want to jailbreak it and then realize that i can't do anything useful with it. Also i had jailbroken my secondary 32-bit device with 16 GB (ios 10.3.3) a while ago, but last week i failed to use Cydia to install anything because of storage problem, i tried to fix it and crushed my phone fully (i had to restore it so that i could use it again [Lost all my data in it, too good there was nothing that important]). What i am trying to say is that i dont want to encounter the same problem (even though Electra is more trusted than h3lix & this one is 64-bit instead of 32).

2) And also if it is worth to jailbreak, is there any list of "must have" tweaks which i have to install right after jailbreaking, so that Cydia have less crushes later ? (Tips and tricks how to install Cydia correctly 😂).

If you like tweaking your device and since you are a member of iosgods I think you like games as well, so yeah just jailbreak your idevice. But just refrain from installing random tweaks.

after jailbreaking from electra just install

substrate compatibility layer

substitue(default installs automatically)

safe mode

preference loader

icleaner

The storage problems you encountered in 32-bit could you have been your 'system memory' being too less, it is different from your disk memory = 16GB. On my 32 Bit i have slashing and iCleaner to increase 'system memory'

16gb + iphone = scam would reccomend you trying to get a higher storage otherwise youd have to instantly delete one app to download another considering games are around 1gb each

Firstly i have lots of games and apps installed right now and its only 9.1gb,, that 1gb games you say are PUBG, CSR racing2, TES: legends, etc. I hate those games or play them on PC, hate to keep that kind of games on my phone. So im good with that.

Secondly there are some limits. Nobody said i have lots of money and dont know what to do with it, or that i love to change phones regularly into better ones. As long as my phone works smoothly and it support latest updates and apps, i dont see any reason to spend some money to change it.

Can you please explain the role of each tweak you mentioned ? I understand what safe mode and icleaner does, but didnt understand what were the others for.

Electra by default uses substitute so in order to install .debs like from iosgods which uses cydia substrate, substrate compatibility layer platformizes in order to make deb work.

Substrate is just defult on electra and is uses to install debs which uses substrate.

Preference loader creates preferences in idevice settings and as well as is used in jailbroken in-app mod menus hacks.
