It’s now possible to download the Phoenix jailbreak IPA for the purpose of jailbreaking iOS 9.3.5 on 32-bit iDevices – iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. The jailbreak comes semi-untethered in its state and is developed by tihmstar and Siguza of Prometheus fame with a bit of assistance from Luca Todesco and mbazaliy. The UI is developed by realkicmember.

The semi-untethered nature of it means you’d have to re-run the jailbreak app after every reboot if you want to place the device into jailbroken state again, and it has to be re-loaded and re-signed via Cydia Impactor every week or so, depending on the sort of certificate you have used for its installation in the first place.
If you own a compatible 32-bit device running iOS 9.3.5 – follow the instructions below for jailbreaking your device and installing Cydia on it.
Step 1: Download Phoenix jailbreak iOS 9.3.5 from this page.
Step 2: Next, you have to download Cydia Impactor made by Saurik for Mac or Windows.
Step 3: Ensure Find My iPhone and Passcode is deactivated on your handset. They can be re-enabled after the jailbreak completes.

Step 8: However, the Phoenix jailbreak app won’t run at the moment. To solve this, you have to trust the certificate which sideloaded the app. Go to Settings –> General –> Device Management and decide to trust the certificate.

And when the jailbreak app certificate has expired, re-sign and re-sideload using Cydia Impactor. Enjoy.
