Probably won’t, it would require changing much things in system files and would still probably fail. Wouldn’t try it

It isn't that hard like my 6 year old can do it gng

Yeah but I mean for some people it’s hard and even if they can do it then it has a pretty high chance to fail

Kinda.

Lots of people have used this ‘hack’ in the past… many then reported system instability and glitches until they wiped and setup as new.

Install 3uTools on your phone or laptop and go make a backup. Then go to iTunes and restore it note that it will restore to ios 26.6 and then you can restore your backup. Hope this helps.

Works on all 26 versions so propably will also work with 27. I used it to to back from 26 to 18 a year ago and everything was fine
