Reconnection loop

[y0va]

usbfluxd keeps reconnecting and no devices are shown on macos. I use macos 11.7.10 and tested the host side with a local build on debian and with the aur package on a manjaro system.

On the host the output looks like:

$ sudo usbfluxd -f -n                                                                                                                                                                                   ✔

And on macOS like this:

Looks similar to #16

@y0va I have the same issue. Have you found a solution?

[DerCommander323]

I have the exact same issue, connecting an iPad (iPadOs 17.4.1 i believe) to my macOS Sonoma VM on Arch linux. Trying to use AltStore, the installation worked, i even managed to log in and sideload an app, but enabling JIT fails because "the device is not connected"

Please, could you explain what AltStore is?

[DerCommander323]

AltStore is an app store for sideloading apps on iOS/iPadOS devices. It has to be installed on the device via AltServer, a program for macOS and Windows that can install AltStore on the connected device. Since I use linux I had to use VMs, but passing through the USB connection normally via QEMU doesn't work with macOS.

Some clis are working but xcode is not picking it up in this state.

This is still happening even in ios 18.0 . Some Cli tools like idevice_id -l picks the iphone up, but not Finder or Xcode

The same thing happened to me. I was working from Xcode 16. I reinstalled my Macosc 14 and configured Xcode 15, and this setup doesn't work. However, the CLI works well.

Ok, I just had to restart Xcode then the Iphone is now available from : usbfluxd
