Recently, an exploit came out for iOS 17 up to the iOS 18 betas that's able to modify several aspects of iOS. This also includes a way for people in other regions to gain access to EU's third-party marketplaces without actually being in the EU, being done via EUnabler. However, with the way it's implemented, not many people can use it.

The way it works is by using specific paths within the internal files of iOS. These paths hold the .plist file (called config.plist) that's needed to modify the location-based feature flags. The problem is that this plist is found within a folder that has a randomly generated name.

For now, we've only found two paths, meaning two working methods. This means that some users may successfully get it working due to having the same named folder on their device, while others with a different name don't.

We specifically need iPad users because the randomly generated .asset folder, which holds AssetData with the .plist file folder, isn't visible in the internal data of iPhones, at least not on the Xcode simulator, but is available for iPads, on both the simulator and on devices that are jailbroken to view internal content, maybe using something like Filza.

(Also, just because iPhones "lack" the folder doesn't mean that the enabler doesn't work for them. it works fine!)

This is why people with Jailbroken iPads on iOS 17.4 or higher are needed (ex. iPad 7th Gen running iOS 18 DB with Palera1n). Because the .asset folder has a randomly generated name and can be located by those users (in fact, the only found methods so far have been found via iPad 7s), we need you to comment whatever unique generated name you've gotten from a directory that looks similar to this: /private/var/MobileAsset/AssetsV2/com_Apple_MobileAsset_OSEligibility/purpose_auto/(randomly generated .asset folder, ex. c55a421c053e10233e5bfc15c42fa6230e5639a9.asset)

Your contribution would be greatly appreciated!
