Infuriated by the 13.
The 3.5mm audio thunder bolt adapters disconnect more often than usual. All I need to do is tap the adapter and it disconnects.
And that Apple has now stopped selling them is even more infuriating, it's not a faulty adapter.
I use a small Anker USB-A to USB-C adapter [1]. They're rock solid.
As great as the AirPod Pro 2s are, a wired connection is superior in terms of reliability and latency. Although greatly improved over the years, I still have occasional issues connecting or switching between devices.
Out of curiosity, what's the advantage of a jailbroken iPhone nowadays? I'd typically unlock Android phones in the past, but I don't see a need on iOS today.
Interestingly, the last time I used Android, I had to sideload Adguard (an adblocker). On the App Store, it's just another app alongside competing adblockers. No such apps existed in the Play Store to provide system-level blocking, proxying, etc. Yes, browser extensions can be used, but that doesn't cover Google's incessant quest to bypass adblockers (looking at you Google News).

I have custom scripts, Ad blocking without VPNs, Application firewalls.
I enjoy having most-full control of my device.
The what? is this the adapter for 3.5mm headphones? If so, you don't have to get Apple made dongles. Third parties make them also.
I'd guess the GPs actual problem is lint in the Lightning port though. Pretty common, relatively easy to clean out too, especially compared to USB-C.
Regardless of either, they both have the same fault.
The connector between the phone and the adapter is poor. It could just be a fault with my phone but I have no way of proving this.
I suspect this sounds like a problem with your specific phone. Never had a problem with any lightning accessories myself.
