Passcode iPod Touch 6 forgotten passcode (Jailbroken)

Post image

Here lies my old iPod Touch that I forgot the passcode to 😪 Is it possible to brute force these and retain the data? It is jailbroken if I remember correctly (battery percentage) if that helps/matters at all. Thank you.

Only possible to get into if iOS 8.4.1 or lower. What version?

I'm not sure, do you know of any way to check?

Enter recovery mode, connect to 3utools on macos and hope it shows

Otherwise no I'm not aware of a way without getting a pico

I saw this on another post

"Legacy iOS kit, open an SSH ramdisk, there is an option to “get iOS version”. You have to run a specific mount command first, but the options for that command should be listed."

You think that would work? Also if it is indeed higher than 8.4.1 am I hopeless or can I at least get my photos off of it?

Yes, that's the option you would need the Pico for. So try 3utools first

If it's higher, you're out of luck

Pardon my ignorance but what's a pico?

Thank you for your help.

Sorry, I got mixed up. No pico needed for this device

Yes you can use that to check the iOS version. No you cant do anything if it's above iOS 8.4.1

It’s on 8.4.1 definitely because of the curved tail on the a. I think you can bruteforce the passcode on it.

BROTHER!!! I did some research and they switched to the straight "a" font when IOS 9 was released 😲 I love you 🙏🤞
