Trampoline

Trampoline is the codename for the iPhone 5's OTA Update Enabler. iOS 6.0 on the iPhone 5 apparently included a bug that prevented OTA updates from occurring properly. As a result, Apple made the OTA update process a little less straightforward.

Trying to perform an OTA update informs you about the updater app, and how to obtain it.

Process

 * Spawn by update daemon (causes elevated privileges)
 * Mount Disk Image at
 * Copy contents off (essentially )
 * Reboot
 * Daemon runs and patches files
 * Daemon deletes Trampoline
 * Reboot

iOSUpdater.app Notes

 * Placing it in iTunes and adding it to the device will allow the update.
 * Updater can't be deleted on device, but can with iTunes.
 * Requires elevated (root) privileges (as far as I can tell)
 * Update doesn't work if app is installed with iTunes.
 * Deleted on successful update to 6.0.1 (10A525).
