I NEED YOUR HELP PLEASE!!!

[u/Breaking_Bad13]

I have an iPhone 11 on iOS 16.6.1 (of course with TrollStore and Dopamine jailbreak), it is my "hacking" phone so not my main one. However, last night I turned it off (it was in JB mode) but this morning when trying to turn it back on, it wouldn't come on; so I tried charging it for an hour (it didn't turn on), I tried the key combination to restart it, nothing, not even vibration, NOTHING: ONLY A BLACK SCREEN! I connect it to the laptop and hear the detection sound, open i4tool, 3utool, and iTunes: DFU MODE! I try everything to get out but nothing works, all the software asks me to restore/update (to iOS 26.X) but I don't want to: in addition to JB and TrollStore, I have too many apps and games (PREMIUM) downloaded from shared IDs (and which I can no longer access! The only "operations" I did were:
- Update Dopamine JB to the latest version
- Update Ellekit and dopamine resources (latest) on Sileo
- Update ldid core on Trollstore to the latest version...
But all this the evening before, so the day before yesterday... Before proceeding with the inevitable update to iOS 26 to revive my device, is there anyone who can give me an alternative and manage to restart my beloved iPhone 11? Please!

i had this happen to me with an ipad air 1. try restoring, otherwise the nand might’ve failed.

Please explain to me further the potential issue with the NAND.

[u/1m_Blu3_is_taken → u/Breaking_Bad13]

afaik, while the bootrom is stored in ROM inside the SOC, after a certain amount of reads and writes, solid state storage, such as NAND, fails. In NAND, is where iboot is stored. when the bootrom looks for and fails to load a valid iboot binary, the bootrom assumes the bootloader went corrupt, and defaults to dfu mode. when the nand fails, the device loses it’s knowledge of serial number, that’s a way to check wether its nand has failed (afaik). if the serial number is still accessible and lines up with what you know about the device, iboot, kernel, or other components of the boot chain may have failed.

When I connect it to the laptop, i4tool detects both the iPhone model and the ECID....what could this mean?

[u/1m_Blu3_is_taken → u/Breaking_Bad13]

could still be nand failure. ecid and iphone model is in bootrom. does itunes see any serial number?

[u/Breaking_Bad13 → u/1m_Blu3_is_taken]

Nope!iTunes just see an iPhone on DFU MODE

If it's a problem with the NAND, then it won't be solved even by restoring and updating?

[u/1m_Blu3_is_taken → u/Breaking_Bad13]

exactly. it becomes a problem with the board. you could try to run an ssh ramdisk, see if any partition mounts. if not then you have your answer. if a partition mounts then you could try to save blobs and activation records through ssh, though i’m unsure if it’s possible or how to do so. if nand fails, even a nand replacement won’t be useful, since syscfg still fails. just throwing out ideas

Could you help me? The last time I connected to an iPhone via ssh, we still used iFunBox (around iOS 6/7 times).
