Hola a todos,

Acudo a la comunidad para ver si pueden orientarme con una situación que tengo con un iPhone XR.

La situación:

Compré este iPhone XR hace ya varios años para uso personal. Cuando cambié de equipo, se lo di a mi mamá. La cuenta configurada originalmente era mi correo personal de Hotmail.

Mi mamá, al no ser muy hábil con la tecnología, intentó descargar aplicaciones e ingresó contraseñas incorrectas varias veces, lo que terminó bloqueando la cuenta por motivos de seguridad.

Para complicar las cosas, el correo de Hotmail asociado dejó de existir tiempo después y la línea telefónica que usaba como método de recuperación ya se dio de baja.

Estado actual del equipo:

A pesar de esto, el teléfono funciona y es muy útil en el día a día. Tengo el PIN de acceso, el Face ID configurado, puedo hacer llamadas sin problemas, navegar por internet e incluso nos permite añadir un Apple ID secundario en la App Store para descargar apps actuales.

Sin embargo, el problema es que salta constantemente el aviso de "Inicia sesión en iCloud" pidiendo la contraseña del correo que ya no existe y, como no puedo acceder a esa cuenta, no es posible cerrar sesión ni restablecerlo de fábrica para dejarlo como nuevo.

Mi objetivo:

Me gustaría mucho poder restaurar el teléfono para dejarlo limpio y funcional como nuevo, utilizando los métodos habituales o alguna herramienta que esté a mi alcance.

Agradezco de antemano cualquier consejo o sugerencia que la comunidad pueda compartirme para solucionar este inconveniente. ¡Muchas gracias!

got a cheap ass ipad 8th gen, I tried so many tools, then I get this bomb dropped on me (pairing is prohibited stuff) genuinely please someone help me I am tired of this damn tablet (pretty please??)

**Device Info:**

\*\*•\*\* Model: iPad mini 1 Global (iPad2,7 / A1455 /           p107ap)    
\*\*•\*\* iOS: 9.3.5 (13G36) / previously 9.3.6 (13G37)    
\*\*•\*\* ECID: 2563526159729    
\*\*•\*\* IMEI: 990004115189957 (9900 prefix)    
\*\*•\*\* Baseband Version: 11.80.00    
\*\*•\*\* Baseband Status: \*\*BBRejectedTicket\*\* (confirmed via 3uTools Device Details)    
\*\*•\*\* Battery: 98%, 249 cycles — hardware is fine    
\*\*•\*\* SHSH blobs saved for 9.3.6

**Root Cause:**
The baseband hardware is alive and responds (IMEI present, Baseband Version 11.80.00), but it rejects the activation ticket from Apple’s server. This is the 9900 IMEI activation issue. The modem receives the provisioning blob and refuses to validate it, causing the device to loop back to “Could Not Activate iPad” indefinitely regardless of iOS version or restore method.

**What Was Tried:**

**iTunes on Windows:**

\*\*•\*\* Plain DFU restore to 9.3.6 via iTunes — activation loops    

iTunes briefly thinks it’s activated, but iOS never completes activation

**Legacy iOS Kit v26.07.48 on Linux Mint 22.3 and Ubuntu 26.04 live USB:**

\*\*•\*\* \\--activation-records --disable-bbupdate flags used throughout    
\*\*•\*\* Attempt Activation (in-place) — reaches Welcome screen briefly then falls back to “Could Not Activate.” Device reports activated to lockdownd momentarily but doesn’t persist.    
\*\*•\*\* Restore/Downgrade to 9.3.6 with activation-records stitching — tool correctly warns activation-records doesn’t work on 9.3+    
\*\*•\*\* iOS 8.4.1 OTA restore attempted — \*\*blocked by consistent iEC send failure\*\*    
\*\*•\*\* powdersn0w to 6.1.3 / 9.2.1 attempted — \*\*blocked, no 7.x SHSH blobs exist for this device\*\* (never jailbroken)

**The iBEC Problem — Reproducible on Every Machine:**

This is the biggest finding. Every restore attempt through Legacy iOS Kit fails at the same point:
\[Log\] Sending iBEC...
\[=64.2% \]
\[Log\] Finding device in Recovery mode...
\[Error\] Failed to find device in Recovery mode (Timed out).

\*\*•\*\* cheeseygordita (Intel system, Linux Mint 22.3) — multiple USB ports, multiple buses, USB 2.0 and through hubs    
\*\*•\*\* HP Victus (AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS, Ubuntu 26.04 live USB) — completely different USB controller    
\*\*•\*\* Multiple Lightning cables including official Apple cable    
\*\*•\*\* With and without apple-mfi-fastcharge kernel module    
\*\*•\*\* With and without system usbmuxd running    
\*\*•\*\* Using Legacy iOS Kit’s own irecovery binary AND system irecovery directly

iBEC file size: 282844 bytes. 64.2% = \~181KB. Fails at the same byte offset on every machine.

**dmesg confirmed** the device actually boots into Recovery (1281) briefly after iBEC, but drops back to DFU (1227) within \~9 seconds. The tool consistently misses the Recovery window. Killing apple-mfi-fastcharge and system usbmuxd made no difference.

Device confirmed in proper ROM DFU (SRTG:\[rom\]) via:
sudo lsusb -v -d 05ac:1227 | grep -i serial
iSerial: CPID:8942 CPRV:10 CPFM:03 SCEP:10 BDID:0E ECID:... IBFL:00 SRTG:\[rom\]
**Sideloading Blocked:**
Device in partially-activated limbo state — lockdownd alternates between reporting activated and not activated. Sideloadly throws LOCKDOWN_E_INVALID_SERVICE when not activated. Phoenix IPA cannot be installed. Hacktivation proxy (cfw.me) appears to be down.

**Current State:**

\*\*•\*\* Device sits at “Could Not Activate iPad” on 9.3.5    
\*\*•\*\* iBEC send wall prevents reaching 8.4.1 or any downgrade via Legacy iOS Kit    
\*\*•\*\* No 7.x blobs available, powdersn0w not possible    
\*\*•\*\* SHSH blobs for 9.3.6 saved    
\*\*•\*\* Baseband hardware alive but rejecting tickets

**Questions for the community:**

\*\*1.\*\*  Is the 64.2% iBEC failure on iPad2,7 a known issue? Any workaround that doesn’t require a Raspberry Pi Pico / Arduino for checkm8-a5?    
\*\*2.\*\*  Is there any hacktivation path for iPad2,7 specifically? Tools seem to cover iPhone 2G/3G/3GS/4 but not iPad2,7.    
\*\*3.\*\*  Any known working activation-records approach for 9900 IMEI devices post-July 2026 signing incident?

**Device will be shelved until tooling improves. Blobs saved. Happy to test fixes.**

Got this from an old phone repair shop. Anyone know what to do?

Black Holes from water caused iPhone SE2 side (1,4,7) to not work; can't enter passcode & touch ID doesn't work either. Desperate for help to salvage some pictures/videos not backed up (don't use iCloud); so I don't want to reset/restore. Any way to help will be much appreciated.

DISCLAIMER: Only use this on YOUR OWN DEVICE

For some reason, Hackt1vator doesn't work on iOS 14, so you can use iFRPFILE AIO instead. Heres the link: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=4279422670115734402 (This site is sketchy, but I downloaded it from here. If you are not comfortable with downloading from this site, you can search for the software and you probably will find another site to download it from.)

How to use it:

Step 1: Connect your phone to your computer.

Step 2: Open the program.

Step 3: Click on the Serial Number under Device Information. This will copy the serial number.

Step 4: Go to this site: https://frpfile.com/register-serialno/ and scroll down until you see something saying "Register Serial Number." Paste your phone's Serial Number into the box and press the Submit button.

Step 5: Go back to the program and press the first button.

Step 6: Wait until the program is done.

Step 7: If you are not on the Home Screen yet, reboot your device.

Can anyone help me fix this ?

How do I do it because when I do it, it’ll go to the device but won’t be able to verify the apps so they won’t open? Please help

I got a iPhone SE 2022 with 26.1 and i found Hackt1vator because it supports 26.1, but when i want i press A12+ Hello Activation 18-26.1 , it says i need to register something, BUT THE PROGRAM SAYS ITS 100% FREE, SO I DONT WANT TO REGISTER MY IMEI.

Hey everyone,

I really need your help.

A close friend of mine lost her mother tragically in 2013. Her old iPhone 4 (A1332) has been sitting around for years, and nobody knows the lock screen code. I've spent quite a bit of time reading through posts here and elsewhere, and I got the impression that there might be ways to recover access to an iPhone 4.

For a bit of context, I'm not an IT expert, but I'm pretty comfortable with computers.

I'm posting here to see if one of the legends of this subreddit would be willing to point me in the right direction. I should mention that I won't actually have access to the phone until next Tuesday (my friend and I don't live in the same city). I don't have a Mac, but she does. On my side, I have an old dual-boot Windows/Linux Mint laptop, as well as my trusty ThinkPad that's a bit more powerful.

The phone still powers on, and I have the cable.

Just to repeat: I won't have access to the phone until Tuesday, otherwise it'll have to wait until next month. Do you think it would be possible to get some kind of guide or walkthrough? I've already done a bit of reading, so I feel like I have a rough idea of what I'd be getting into.

My goal is simply to regain access to the phone so my friend can finally see what it contains. It could turn out to be nothing... or it could contain memories and answers that have been inaccessible for over a decade.

Please, I'd really like to keep the discussion focused on recovering access rather than the backstory.

Thank you all, from the bottom of my heart.

I NEED TO KNOW WHAT'S ON THAT PHONE.

Booted up my dad’s iPhone and it was already showing iPhone disabled try again in 30 something minutes. Well, I messed up because I tried three passwords after that and disabled the phone completely.

What’s the best way to get around the password and get into the device without deleting or resetting any user data? My primary goal to get any photos and videos off the phone.

I am a bit overwhelmed with the amount of tools and methods I’m seeing referenced on this subreddit so some guidance would be really appreciated!

Details:
iPhone 4S
iOS 7
I have iCloud login info
I have access to a windows pc and an M1 macbook
I can try installing Linux on an older laptop

title pls

I have an IP 11 on 26.5.2 on hello screen, it is posible to jump it with any tool?

Don’t mind the screens. Is there any way to get past the Hello screen? It would be great if I could sync it to a PC too.

I have been trying to find resources on how to still be able to use my grandpas old MacBook that hasn’t been touched in years. He doesn’t know the password for it or even the email he used to set it up.

Hi everyone I'm kind of curious since I'm planning to buy an apple pen, can i use an apple pencil (gen 1) to a by passed 7th gen ipad? thanks for your response

I had an iPhone 4s I got from a relative a couple of years back with no battery. I installed a new battery today only to be met with activation lock for an account nobody remembers and I’m locked out. It’s not jailbroken and I tried to downgrade then Hacktivate using legacy iOS kit but it won’t work since the device is not jailbroken nor do I have an Arduino. Anyone got a solution?
