[iOS 14.0] Image Mounting Error

[Schlaubischlump]

I'll be honest I have no idea why this happens and I don't have the time to investigate it. It was working fine for all of the beta versions. Somehow lockdownd_start_service does not seem to work in some cases. Even with the latest libimobiledevice beta it fails. It is working fine when using the libimobiledevice ideviceimagemounter tool, which is strange because I use the same source code.

What you can do as a workaround is:

1. Open Xcode
2. Build a dummy project for your iOS device. This will upload the developer disk image
3. Open LocationSimulator.

Alternatively you can use the ideviceimagemounter to upload the DeveloperDiskImage.

I compiled and installed the idevicelocation-Library like under the alternative one (https://github.com/watanabetoshinori/LocationSimulator). Now your and the LocationSimulator from watanebetoshinori is working. I additionally reconnected the device and tried a manual idevicelocation 0 0 in the terminal because there was another error popping up. Crazy 🤪

idevicelocation is included in libimobiledevice since version 1.3.0. You don't have to compile it manually. It will install if you run: brew install libimobiledevice

It will work fine, until you reboot your iOS device (and maybe your mac ?). This will unmount the DeveloperDiskImage. The problem is just with uploading the DeveloperDiskImage to the device.

I think I found the error. Should be fixed now. Hopefully this doesn't break support for older iOS versions.
