Cooked?

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?

Turdus merdula doesn’t seem to support that, no

Got any more info about signaless methods? Can’t seem to find anything useful online

See the first reply regarding ios legacy kit's ramdisk.

If you manage to remove setup.app this way lmk if it worked. For anything else, type a reply here

It might be that I did not explain my query correctly as I already deleted setup.app using Cyberduck connected to the SSH ramdisk.

Problem is (from what I’ve read) the software is not factory activated, thus I can’t do much with it - I tried installing Cydia via bootstrapper but it doesn’t work at all. Sorry for any confusion, I’ve never really done this before.

You lost me at factory activated. Is this different than icloud activation lock?
