what's going on youtube geos9 here so in
0:02
today's video i have some great news for
0:04
those of you interested in ios
0:06
downgrades this video is brought to you
0:07
by any trends a software that allows you
0:09
to manage the photos music videos and
0:11
every data on your device but you can
0:13
also backup and restore your social
0:15
media applications like whatsapp from
0:17
one device to another very easy to use
0:19
definitely check it out in the link
0:20
below and also thanks to the patreons
0:22
who are supporting this channel they are
0:24
right now on your screen so for those of
0:26
you interested in ios downgrades lit
0:29
down an application just for that has
0:31
been updated to version 2.2 so as you
0:34
can see version 2.2 over here and there
0:36
are a lot of changes and a lot of code
0:38
has been refactored rebuild so that it
0:40
works better and it's much more
0:41
optimized so what lead down does is to
0:43
basically allow you to downgrade the
0:45
compatible devices to ota signed
0:48
firmware so ota means over the air some
0:50
firmware still gets signed over the air
0:52
even though their ipsw is no longer
0:54
signed or their beta file are no longer
0:57
signed apple does this weird thing that
0:59
for example an ipsw may no longer be
1:01
signed you cannot download it and
1:03
restore it but that specific ios version
1:05
can still be downgraded to in some cases
1:08
over the air you know from settings and
1:10
this is what lead down does it takes
1:12
advantage of ota sign firmware in order
1:14
to basically restore them though the
1:16
compatible devices are only the a6 and
1:18
a7 and this is taking advantage of the
1:21
checkmate exploit so this is built by
1:23
ra9 if you want to support them they do
1:25
have a patreon where you can support
1:27
them i would definitely advise you to do
1:29
so their tool is pretty great but there
1:31
are also some important changes in lead
1:33
down 2.2 the a5 support has been removed
1:36
so basically the support for iphone 4s
1:38
and stuff like that they say here quote
1:40
a5 support was cancelled lead down aims
1:43
to downgrade devices directly from dfu
1:45
mode without using any other external
1:47
hardware current state of the checkmate
1:49
exploit on a5 is not suitable for this
1:51
purpose please use ios ota downgrader
1:53
for a5 devices so to explain a little
1:56
bit what's the problem with the a5
1:57
devices the checkmate exploit does work
1:59
and you would be able to use leakdown in
2:01
this condition however on the a5 devices
2:04
you would need an arduino uno you would
2:06
need a usb host shield basically to put
2:08
on top of your arduino uno and to upload
2:10
the code to the arduino and connect your
2:12
device to arduino and do checkmate
2:14
through that which is pretty complicated
2:17
to do it's something to do with the usb
2:19
devices and stuff i didn't look too much
2:20
into the issue because i'm not very
2:22
interested in the a5 devices myself but
2:24
there is an issue there on those devices
2:26
that prevent them from just getting
2:28
pawned over dfu from the computer you do
2:31
need the arduino on which you can
2:33
control much easier the usb stack so
2:35
that's one of the problems and hence why
2:37
lead down doesn't support a5 anymore and
2:40
it sticks to the a6 or a7 which is the
2:42
iphone 5 ipad 4 iphone 5s ipad mini 2
2:46
excluding the j87 and the ipad air now
2:49
yes lit down does not support newer
2:51
devices but this has to do not with the
2:53
exploit itself but with the ota firmware
2:56
being available or not so if you take a
2:57
look here on the changelog one of those
2:59
says in here quote lit down now supports
3:01
a6 devices for ios 8.4.1 downgrade so
3:05
yes you can go to ios 8.4.1 using this
3:08
stuff if it's signed for your a6 device
3:10
which in some cases is apple signs their
3:13
firmware in very weird ways anyways yes
3:15
this is fully available here on github
3:18
it's fully open source you know exactly
3:20
what you're trying to install over here
3:21
and once you get it it looks like this
3:23
you open it and you open the application
3:25
and that's it you connect your device in
3:27
dfu mode and the rest is handled by the
3:29
program so that's basically it if you're
3:31
interested in this you have older
3:32
devices you want to play with maybe run
3:34
an older version that runs faster on
3:35
your old device definitely do so thank
3:38
you for watching imgsnow till the next
3:39
time subscribe to stay updated and peace
