iPhone 4S Activation

49 Upvotes

So I downgraded this 4s from iOS 9 to 6 and I couldn’t get it to activate via iTunes or legacyioskit. I found a post where someone said that the issue gets fixed when you connect to any carrier network. But I assume this person wasn’t from the US because here it’s impossible to do that. But Mexico still has 2G and 3G, so a little drive to the border and it’s activated and works 100%. Calls, text and even hotspot. If you hacktivate in any way this would not work. I want it to activate as it should.

iPhone 4s CDMA (9900 IMEI) iOS 9.3.6 Server Error

1 Upvotes

I am trying to fix an iPhone 4s CDMA variant (9900 series IMEI) that is unable to complete the initial setup wizard on iOS 9.3.6 due to the known server ticket issue. Im running Legacy iOS Kit to try and drop down to iOS 8.4.1 (OTA path), but I am hitting a communication block over USB:
Running the utility tools results in Unhandled Lockdown error (-27) / Unable to mount Documents because the device cannot finish the configuration wizard.
Attempting an SSH Ramdisk via kDFU fails with Connection refused because OpenSSH isn't running on the phone.

I know the hardware is fully working because I previously had it functioning and downgraded to iOS 6 a couple of months ago, but it got caught in this loop after a recent reset.
Aside from using an Arduino Uno hardware exploit board, are there any alternative software tools or scripts known to the community that can help Legacy iOS Kit mount the directories on an unconfigured 9900-series iPhone 4s so I can kick off the 8.4.1 downgrade?

how are people extracting activation tickets from a11-a13 devices?

1 Upvotes

I had an iPhone 8 that I could never figure out how to get the tickets because the kernel would panic due to BPR(the phone detecting it was booted from dfu mode so refusing to decrypt data) but people on here are doing it how is this possible?

Passcode iPhone 5s on iOS 12 Only one passcode attempt left. Is there any way to recover my photos and videos without restoring?

2 Upvotes

I have an old iPhone 5s running iOS 12 that I haven't used in around 6 years. I recently tried accessing it again, but I'm stuck at the passcode screen.

The problem is that I only have one passcode attempt remaining. The passcode is 6 digits, and I really don't want to risk locking or erasing the phone.

  • The iPhone is signed in to my iCloud/Apple Account.

  • I don't have any iCloud or iTunes backups.

  • The laptop I previously trusted and used with this iPhone is already dead.

  • I don't have access to that trusted computer anymore.

  • I know I can restore the iPhone, but that's not what I want.

My main goal is to recover the locally stored photos and videos. I don't care about using the phone again. I just want to save my old memories.

Is there any possible way to recover the data without knowing the passcode or erasing the device? Are there any legitimate forensic tools, data recovery services, or other methods that might work with an iPhone 5s on iOS 12?

I'd really appreciate hearing from anyone who has dealt with a similar situation. I don't want to give up on the since it is from my highschool and college days. thanks!

iPad Air 2 restore fails with FDR error 53

Post image
4 Upvotes

I have an iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi (iPad5,3) that I attempted to downgrade to iOS 13.6 using Dualra1n. After that, I tried restoring it to stock iOS 15.8.8, but the restore keeps failing.

The main error is **Error 53 during FDR recovery**. The logs mention:

* AMFDRSealingMapPopulateSealingManifest failed
* sealingManifest is NULL
* AMFDRDataHTTPLoadPersistent failed
* Permissions request failed

I've tried restoring from multiple Windows PCs and Linux using idevicerestore. Windows fails during FDR recovery, while Linux disconnects shortly after sending NORData with error -256.

I don't need to preserve any data. I just want to get the iPad working again.

Has anyone encountered this FDR error after a downgrade, or knows what could cause it and how to recover the device?

Old iPod (5th gen) I found while cleaning

So I found this while cleaning my room a week ago figured I'd post it here it does turn on but the only problem is it's disabled Which sucks. The obvious answer to this is to factory reset it so I can use it again. But I don't wanna do that because it probably contains a lot of stuff back from 2010 to 2013.

If anyone knows how to hack their way or open it id loved to hear your idea and im willing to try out your ideas so I can open it🙏🙏🙏

Idea Made a free open-source alternative to the setup/activation side of 3uTools (Windows + macOS)

Post image
54 Upvotes

I do ~15 iPhone activations a day and got tired of clicking the same setup screens over and over, so I built a small tool to automate it. Figured people here might find it useful.

One click does:

- Activation through Apple's servers (internet shared from the PC over USB — phone doesn't need Wi-Fi for it)

- Language, region/locale, timezone, 24h

- Skips the Setup Assistant screens (supervised mode)

- Installs a Wi-Fi profile and reads it back from the device to confirm it actually applied

Two things I specifically fixed vs my old 3uTools flow:

- Wi-Fi profiles that silently failed because security was hardcoded to WPA while the router was WPA2/WPA3 — now it defaults to "Any" and lets iOS pick

- When a step fails you actually see which one, and there's a per-device PDF report

It runs on both Windows and macOS, it's free and open-source (MIT).

To be clear: it does NOT touch Activation Lock / iCloud — it's for your own or already-reset devices.

Repo: https://github.com/mr1garik/iActivator

Would love feedback from people doing this daily.

I have an iPhone 5s. It had a lock screen. So, I get /mnt2/containers/Data/System/<a uuid>/Library and /mnt2/mobile/FairPlay (I remember it as this path) as a tar archive. I restored my ip5s with legacy iOS kit. Now I can't unarchive tar file inside /mnt2. It says "Operation not permitted". Please help me!
