"Please update to Xcode 7.3 or later" error

[solverbak]

When trying to refresh an app I receive the message "Please update to Xcode 7.3 or later to continue developing with your Apple ID. (3018)" (green bubble). iOS version is 13.2, AltStore 1.1b2, and I have Catalina installed with Xcode 11.2 and Altserver 1.0.1. I have had AltStore installed for weeks with no issues before this.

[Ethan-BB]

I have same issue on Windows 10 1903, iOS 13.2 Started happening today.

[WilliamLCobb]

Apple dropped support for the Xcode 7 protocol today effecting everyone using AltStore. ALTAppliApi.m needs to be updated to use the Xcode 7.3 api or later for AltStore to start working again

[nighto]

Just to add 2¢, tried to update Xcode CLI with the following steps but it wasn't enough, the error persisted.

sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
xcode-select --install

Looking into this right now, sorry for the inconvenience everyone!

From what I can tell, it looks like I'm missing three required headers: X-Apple-GS-Token, DSESSIONID, and X-Mme-Device-Id. It doesn't seem like the value for X-Apple-GS-Token matters, as long as there is one. As for DSESSIONID and X-Mme-Device-Id, I proxied Xcode's network requests with Charles to see what values it was using, then used these same exact values in AltStore. This fixed all the issues for me, so now looking into ways to retrieve a unique DSESSIONID value dynamically in the app rather than hardcoding it.

[rileytestut]

So the server returns a DSESSIONID value in the response headers, but trying to use that value for subsequent network requests still fails. Getting closer though...

[rileytestut]

I guess I should note the value for X-Mme-Device-Id I'm getting is the same as the machineId field for my development certificate (EEF1E570-F961-596D-A316-C39806EA65F4). I assume this doesn't mean anything and is just because Xcode has given my computer that identifier, but honestly who knows for sure at this point 🤷‍♂️

[WilliamLCobb]

Which Xcode version are you using to test this? 7.3?

[qhu91it]

I got the same error, the version of Xcode I use is 11.2

[rileytestut]

@WilliamLCobb was using Xcode 11.1, but am now downloading Xcode 7.3

[Boris-TR]

I get a similar error when attempting to download the AltStore from my Windows 10 computer to my Iphone X. I'm on iOS 13.2. I'm also using the windows version of iTunes.

[nieheyong]

same issue when install altStore

[khius]

same issue here on MACOS 10.15.1 trying to install Altsore

[horsejockey]

@rileytestut did downgrading to xcode 7.3 fix the issue?

[Quzzzyrk]

Man these past few days have been so fucking bad without Spotify. You never truly appreciate something till it’s gone :(

[glowingkitty]

any update on a possible fix?:/

[M3-PO]

Rip altstore

[rileytestut]

Sorry y’all, you can see some of the progress going on over here, which is in addition to all the stuff we’re doing more behind the scenes: https://github.com/Matchstic/ReProvision/issues/96

We’re making good progress, and I’m confident it will be resolved now that we know what’s going on, but no ETA at this time 😕

[sangshuduo]

Thanks for today's fix! I installed the plugin and AltStore onto my iPad successfully. However, when I signed in my iCloud account in the App, it crashed therefore I can't refresh AltStore or Delta. iPad mini 5 running iOS 12.4

[hacknug]

It would be great if you could add a note letting users know they need to use their Apple ID password and that app-specific passwords don't work 👍

[Ethan-BB]

You kinda missed the part on AltStore webpage, where it says: NO JAILBREAK REQUIRED!

[avipars]

Apparently there is a beta build from here:

Doesn't work on my iPad (iOS 9) with a windows 10 computer

[Ethan-BB]

@avipars Thank you, I missed that tweet, Riley should maybe consider making a mailing list for stuff like this. Works on iPhone X and iOS 13.2.3 - Windows 10 x64, 1903

[effek70]

anyone try the iOS 9.3.5?

[avipars]

I am also on the same version and it isn't working.

But the Jailbreak is for 11.4-12.4, how could you have gotten it to work on 11.03? Also, again, altstore's website says NO JAILBREAK REQUIRED. This isn't a proper fix

[FISIORODRIGO]

This isn't a proper fix

I don't know... just follow the instructions and "voila" Electra it Works again.... But, I'm not the best person to discuss this cause i'm a noob in this thing of jailbreak...

[bbmodern]

works perfectly till ios 9.3.5

[cruz666]

Actually the 1st Jailbreak that actually worked for a change. Semi un-tethered but better than nothing. Thanks moalshalabi......

[noah978]

This issue was fixed awhile ago. Closing this issue now.
