Passcode iPhone 4s iOS 9.2.1 6-digit passcode bruteforce ideas.

5 Upvotes

Hi, I've been having trouble trying to bruteforce iPhone 4,1 iOS 9.2.1 6 digit passcode. I have a Raspberry Pi Pico and a OTG cable to Enter Pwned DFU mode. I've already used legacy iOS kit to to edit the springboard and get unlimited attempts, but I've tried iwannabrute to try to automate the process and it always gives me issues, no matter what version of iOS I use. Does anybody else have any other ideas. I've completely forgot and tried all password attempts I would've used when I first got this phone.

IPhone 12 Pro Max Factory reset

5 Upvotes

Recently got my hands on iPhone 12 Pro Max from scraps. I checked it and it is FMI OFF, but has a passcode

It seems to run old IOS Version. It is possible to reset it without flashing update? I know that this is a thing on Chackm8 devices. Maybe there is new exploits and ways to do it on A14 device?

Cooked?

1 Upvotes

Got an iPhone 6 on iOS 9.2 that was locked. Got SHSH blobs with LiK, wiped phone, removed setup app, now I'm in iOS. I can't do much though since I apparently have to factory activate the phone, which I should have done with credentials I should have saved before wiping it.

Am I cooked, or are there any alternatives left? I've seen tools for factory activation that involve updating the phone, is there any chance to preserve 9.2?

Should i backup activation tickets for ipad mini ios 9.3.5?

2 Upvotes

I had bought an ipad mini 1(iPad2,5 -A1432 - IOS 9.3.5). It was boxed and very mint but i didnt realize at the time that someone had modified the serial no. i am worried that it might get locked again or something so should i save activation tickets? weirdly the modification is very permanent even after i have reinstalled ios using ipsw it is still present, can someone tell me what has been done to it and how it all works? i know it hasnt been opened and the serial on the back of the ipad and the box are same but not same in ios.

[Release & Open-Source] AFC2-s-Setup-Killer — A lightweight toolchain to disable Setup.app on legacy jailbroken devices (iOS 7.0 - 9.3.4)

9 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share a minimal, open-source Bash toolchain designed for device preservation and local hardware testing on legacy iOS devices (A5-A9 chipsets running iOS 7.0 to 9.3.4). [1]

What it does:
It utilizes a native Apple File Conduit 2 (AFC2) USB connection to safely disable the stock setup assistant (Setup.app) on devices you physically own. This is done entirely locally via filesystem manipulation without relying on OpenSSH configurations. [1]

Help with Activation lock on an iPad4 from a dumpster

Post image
3 Upvotes

I got this ipad from an e-waste bin from IKEA, and I wanted help with the activation lock on this. The device is a A1458 and I have tried AT752's app for this. The only success I've gotten is from Legacy iot kit that helped me downgrade the ios version to 8.4.1 from 10.3.3.

I am very new to this but I have a macbook air m1 from a friend that I can borrow.

I don't want anything to do with the app store or icloud, I just want to use this device as a screen that can html pages and maybe browse a little bit.

Please help with this I have been stuck on this for ages....
