# Target Apl
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Introduction
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
xOS gets support for `apl` target allowing to run the OS on a real i-device.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## How to boot
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Step 1: The process of compiling the OS is similar to other targets. You have to provide `apl` as a `target_board` to GN Build System. More information you can find [on this page](https://code.ayaantunio.me/ayaan/Custom-Operating-System/src/branch/master/docs/build.md).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Step 2: To get access to the bootloader you have to jailbreak your i-device. The checkra1n environment is used. You can get the binary at [http://checkra.in/](http://checkra.in/).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Step 3: After configuring GN you have to provide path to the checkra1n binary with a $CHECKRAIN env variable.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Step 4: Run `./all.sh` from `out/` dir. This will compile the OS, prepare ramdisk and compile a custom version of pongoOS which is used as a bootloader.

|
Note: to turn off xOS, [force reset](https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/iphone/iph8903c3ee6/15.0/ios/15.0) your device.

|
## Limitations
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Support for `apl` target at a early stage of development. Currently only devices with A7-A9x are supported. We have also plans to get support for AIC and touchscreen.

***NOTE: Please ensure you have a backup of your device before applying the jailbreak. While the data loss is unlikely, we are not responsible if something goes wrong. Use it on your own risk.***
