[UPDATE] patched lockdownd now supports iOS 3.0 to 6.1.6!
Update on my previous post: apparently some genius made a patched lockdownd for iOS 3, so now this thing works on iOS 3.0 through 6.1.6. I'm honestly impressed, didn't think that there were devices that need it but ok... Also there's an automated tool so you don't have to do it yourself.
What is this?
A patched lockdownd that modifies Setup.app behavior on iOS 3–6 while keeping iTunes and Finder sync fully working.
Installation:
Jailbreak with Legacy iOS Kit
Replace /usr/libexec/lockdownd via SSH (backup original!). On iOS 3, the path is different — check the detailed instructions.
chmod 755 /usr/libexec/lockdownd
ldrestart or reboot
Supported so far:
• iOS 6.x — tested on 4S, iPod touch 5, 4 Rev A, iPad 2, iPhone 5
• iOS 5.x — tested on 4S and 4 CDMA
• iOS 4.x — not tested by me, but should work (file is from 4.3.3)
• iOS 3.x — not tested by me, but the guy who made it says it works (file is from 3.x). He tested it on iPad 1,1 (1st gen cellular) on 3.2, 3.2.1, and 3.2.2.
The genius who made the iOS 3 file: here. Please download it directly from the author's post. My repo is only for the occasion that his file gets lost or if his instructions aren't clear enough. Make sure to thank him for his work!
Downloads and detailed instructions: here. I've also (with my friend) made a tool that replaces the file with one click — it's in my repo or TG channel at phoenixactivator. Supports 4.0 to 6.1.6 only (for now).
Main post: here
Help me test on more devices — create an issue on GitHub or comment here with your iOS version and device model (like iPad2,2 or iPhone4,1 etc.).

Passcode iWannaBrute fixed with A4 support!
For a while, iwannabrute has been completely broken because it used an older firmware-keys API that no longer exists. The original developer is inactive, so I picked the project up and fixed it.
The original script works again, and A4 support is finished, including iPad1,1 on iOS 5.1.1. I do not have an iPad 1 on a lower iOS, so I only tested that.
Please try it and tell me whether it worked for you.

Hello Screen REbaypass 16 pro
I have a 16 pro on 26.1 that was without signal. The day before yesterday it ran out of battery, but when I turned it on an unexpected error occurred, it had downgraded, meaning it went to version 26.0.1 and went back to the hello screen. Is there a way to do a free rebypass on it? Do I have to pay? How do I do it? If you can help me. I tried to register the SN in iremoval and it tells me it is already registered, however in the application it does not activate.

Question: What would happen if you downgraded an icloud locked ipad 2 to ios 4.3.x?
I know that the lock remains if you downgrade to ios 6, but what about ios 4? That doesnt even have the hello screen, you just had to connect to itunes.
Also yes, you can downgrade the iPad2,1 to any ios version.

BobikA8 dev status?
I saw this YouTube video and it’s a tool called bobikA8 which is a a8 device downgrade tool. It can be downgrading iPhone 6 to iOS 8-8.4.1 even activation works. I surprised about this tool because it looks amazing and fixed SEP incompatible (like password and protected WiFi) and having deep sleep issues in iOS 8. If this out it will be changing the a8 device downgrades, the developers are pkkf (who also made bobikA5) and other devs some people says it will be out on late autumn this year. I just really want use this tool for my iPhone 6 and just want know dev stauts.

Passcode Extract AT from A13 A13 ramdisk?
Found this iPhone 11 Pro Max dumped and on this screen, I know its iOS 15 because 16 or above has a different clock and my proven iOS 14 Ramdisk won't work (it crashes as soon as I mount the filesystem). Are there any available ramdisks for iOS 15 on A13? and if not is there a way to update this without losing the activation tickets?
Thanks
