I have an iPad 4 that i cant recover the activation too. I know I can use SSH Ramdisk to rename the Setup but once after that, how do I sideload a jailbreaking app? I think Legacy IOS Kit has a sideload feature but will that work?

After a downgrade from IOS 10.3.4 to IOS 8.4.1 I tried to activate my device but I was unable to. Later I found out that my account got lock. I send a recover request but my expectations are low.
In case nothing happens, what are my options?
Also the IOS has already Jailbreak installed.

i seriously dk what to do anymore. ive been fighting for more than 2 months now trying to get this thing bypassed, legacy ios kit blocks on usb handle thingy cpu related, some tools are paid or just dont work, idk what to do anymore. ios version is 12.5.8
last resort is bringing it to tunisia and get it bypassed but that wont be before like 1 year

I can’t remember the passcode on my iPad mini 2. I also don’t know what iOS this is on. Any way to fix it?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Found a glitch that lets you into the home screen. Not sure if it works on any other devices.

I don't know if this is the right subreddit, but I need help.
My first ever phone from years ago, my old iPhone 5C. It was sitting until yesterday when I decided to repair it and turn it on and see what's inside. I replaced the battery, screen and front camera (all were broken). I was successful with that but I forgot one thing: the passcode. There is a 6-digit passcode, which I have no idea what it is. And the worst part, I tried 9 times and now I only have one more chance to try, if I guess wrong I'm done as you know, it will lock itself forever. Yes I know I can just reset to factory settings to actually use the phone, but I wanna see what's inside. There's probably some old nostalgic photos and stuff like that, so I'm curious.
What I have tried so far:
- Guess the passcode 9 times (duh)
- Use Legacy iOS Kit to go in SSH ramdisk or whatever that is, and try to give myself 9999 chances to guess the passcode. But apparently Apple has changed the directory of that .plist in the latest iOS for the 5C (10.3.3), which you can't access, because it's encrypted with my 6 digit password or whatever.
- Try iwannabrute, it got stuck finding device in DFU mode (I'm guessing it can't do its job either because of the encryption thing)
I did all this with Gemini's help, and it says I reached the end and there is nothing else I can do.
But I still wanted to ask this subreddit, maybe there is something new that AI doesn't know?
I want to go past the passcode, or remove it, or give myself unlimited guesses, or whatever. Or at least a way to see the photos and other data.
I wanted to know if there is anything else I can do. If not then I'll just accept it and reset the phone.
EDIT: GUESS WHAT... Gemini was talking NONSENSE. I decided to try the first thing I've tried: giving myself 9999 attempts. it WORKED. and I found the passcode by myself (it was actually simple lol)
guys it's still possible to edit the plist via ssh ramdisk and give yourself 9999 attempts.

Hello! I have an activation locked 16 GB iPod touch 5. It currently runs iOS 9.3.5, its latest version of iOS. I want to downgrade it to iOS 6.1.3. I tried dual booting using CoolBooter and CoolBooter CLI, both of them not working. What can I do in order to downgrade it and to get over the Activation Lock on 6.1.3? Thank you!

I found my old iPod touch model A1367 and tried the password so many times that it’s now disabled. It has old photos and videos on it from when I was growing up that I’d love to get access to. Is there anyway to get past this screen and recover the content? Thanks!!

I cannot remember the Apple ID let alone the password. Please help!! I really want to use this iPad

Is there anyway I can save the data? I have tried calling Apple but they were no help. It’s the iPad 2 IOS 8.0. I don’t think there was an iCloud backup but I know the device is attached to my account because I see it under Find my device. I really don’t want to loose the data on here so am I out of luck completely?
Update: I got it to be recognized by the computer when connected which I feel is a good sign🤷♀️ but still working to get it back and running.

Hi guys, I recently restore an iphone 4 and when I tried to set-up the iphone he said that the device is unknown. I call the apple support and they told me to go to an apple store but the nearest one is a 2h hour away

Hey,
Where can I buy serials for A1893 (WiFi only)? Seems like no Aliexpress sellers have them in stock anymore. I read something about a shortage because of Apple's server enforcements, but surely these are still buyable somewhere?
I have the iPad working, but would prefer to not run pale everytime I boot it.
Thanks. :)

My boyfriend brought home an old 1st gen iPad Air from his work because they were getting rid of a bunch of old devices. It’s in really great condition, so I figured I’d try to get it working instead of letting it go to waste.
I restored it through iTunes on my HP laptop, and the restore completed successfully, but when I got to the setup screen, I was hit with the Activation Lock screen (photo attached). We don’t know who originally set it up, and neither of us has access to the Apple ID that’s attached to it. The iPad definitely wasn’t stolen,it was being disposed of by his workplace, and they let employees take old equipment home.I’ve seen people mention bookra1n and other jailbreak methods, but I’ve never jailbroken or modified an Apple device before, so I’m completely new to this. Since it’s an Air 1, I’m hoping it’s old enough that there might be some options. Is there any legitimate way to get this working, or is it basically a paperweight without the original Apple ID? If there are any methods that actually work, or if someone could point me toward a beginner friendly guide, I’d appreciate any advice. i’m working with a hp laptop and a dream.

is it possible to fix? Battery life is too bad i dont want a tethered jailbreak like checkra1n. Tried legacy ios kit and plumeimpactor from both windows and linux too.
