How to enter flash mode
To enter DFU mode, you disconnect USB, turn off the ipad and hold home and power for 10 seconds, release power and keep home pressed for another 8 seconds. Release home and connect the device to your computer.
If you use dmesg -w or journalctl -kf, you can watch the device connecting and see if it is in DFU mode.
Once DFU Mode is entered, you need to build a checkm8-arduino setup. For older iPad 3 OS versions (9.3.5 and previous), you can use other methods but I have not tested them yet.
You can download the A5X Version of Checkm8 here https://github.com/a1exdandy/checkm8-a5?tab=readme-ov-file
It still needs to be combined with the arduino host shield library 2.0 and modified for the A5X. You can download the modified version here https://forge.giftedmc.com/haui/ipad3_checkm8/src/branch/master
After successfully pwning the device, you need to upload and boot a kernel. For this, I tried ipwndfu but without success. Download here https://github.com/axi0mX/ipwndfu
Installation
Use pmbootstrap to build your own installation image.
Current Status
The device is jailbreakable (tested) using K0k3shi9
Device secured vulnerable (tested) for A5X version of checkm8.
Device so far not responding to ipwdfu since the CPID seems to be wrong/incompatible.
