Easily turn a Raspberry Pi 4 or a Banana Pi M2 Zero into a portable Checkra1n dongle.


Here is a demo of piRa1n.

Important notes

  • piRa1n only works on a Raspberry Pi 4, other versions of the RPi won't work. However, it works on a Banana Pi M2 Zero.
  • Make an iCloud/iTunes backup before jailbreaking, so that you can go back if something goes wrong

Usage

Parts list

  • a Raspberry Pi 4 with either 1GB, 2GB, 4GB or 8GB of RAM (1GB of RAM is enough and cheaper so I recommend the 1GB version) or a Banana Pi M2 Zero
  • a USB to USB Type-C cable (only for the RPi 4)
  • a USB to micro USB cable (only for the Banana Pi M2 Zero)
  • a micro USB to USB adapter (only for the Banana Pi M2 Zero)
  • a USB to lightning cable
  • a power bank (For better performances, make sure it supports 5V/3A output.)
  • a MicroSD Card of at least 8GB
