Unable to place device into recovery mode from Normal mode about idevicerestore

[wyatt8740]

I'd like to add that I can't restore my iPhone 4s from DFU mode or recovery mode either.

Please use the latest idevicerestore from git HEAD. It is able to restore anything up to latest iOS 7.1. Make sure to also update libirecovery from here. Furthermore make sure libusb has enough permissions to access your usb device nodes. Usually running the tool with "sudo" should ensure this.

@ElSebita You are doing it wrong. Reading "Custom firmware requested. Disabled TSS request." means that you try to install a custom firmware or got the CLI arguments wrong. There is no custom firmware support on iOS 7.x. Please also try to post the full command line instead of just the command output. Furthermore you are attempting an update install. You should try with "-e" erase first, especially as update install is only supported for minor version updates (e.g. 7.0.1 to 7.0.x).

[ElSebita]

Thanks.
I tried -e option before but same situation. I'm using a downloaded ipsw file:

sudo idevicerestore -d -e iPad2,1_7.1_11D167_Restore.ipsw

[ElSebita]

These messages appear in dmesg too:

[279393.653669] usb 1-1.6: usbfs: process 28424 (idevicerestore) did not claim interface 1 before use
[279462.696100] usb 1-1.6: usbfs: process 28464 (irecovery) did not claim interface 1 before use

I got the same error : Trying for iPhone4 on iOS7.1 and restoring it back to 7.1 using ipsw on local machine. @FunkyM

There is a bug in libirecovery which I need to fix for this to work.

[markcoker]

Hi @FunkyM, is there any update to this issue? im not sure if it helps but winocms opensn0w works fine with iphone in recovery mode.

[mohamedhamada]

Hi @FunkyM, Can you help me please?
When trying to restore a custom iOS 8.3.IPSW on my iPhone 5 I face that problem :-
Mohameds-MacBook-Pro:Library-iPhone mohamedhamada$ idevicerestore -u --6DB4AE27928942E0F045F5B33B7843EDCABBDEC7 -c iPhone5,2_8.3_12F70_Restore.ipsw

[rodrigodiaz]

Hi @mohamedhamada, when I got that problem, it was solved using sudo. I hope it works. Best Regards!

[mohamedhamada]

Hi @rodrigodiaz , Can you tell me, how to do that?please

[rodrigodiaz]

@mohamedhamada Sure.
In your console you typed:
Mohameds-MacBook-Pro:Library-iPhone mohamedhamada$ idevicerestore -u --6DB4AE27928942E0F045F5B33B7843EDCABBDEC7 -c iPhone5,2_8.3_12F70_Restore.ipsw

Try adding sudo, it should look like this:
Mohameds-MacBook-Pro:Library-iPhone mohamedhamada$ sudo idevicerestore -u --6DB4AE27928942E0F045F5B33B7843EDCABBDEC7 -c iPhone5,2_8.3_12F70_Restore.ipsw

Then, it will ask for user's password. You wrote it, and it should work.

[mohamedhamada]

[mohamedhamada]

@rodrigodiaz Thanks for your replay. I hope to find a solution to my problem.

[aburgh]

Hi @mohamedhamada,

A few things:

• Your problem is unrelated to this issue, so please open a new issue.
• When quoting commands and their output, please use Markdown code fencing to preserve all the characters and formatting verbatim. Three back-ticks, "```", on a line before and after the quoted text will do it. See https://guides.github.com/features/mastering-markdown/. Also, when composing a comment or message, the Preview tab allows you to verify your formatting before you submit it.
• In the command below, there should not be two dashes before the target ID:

Mohameds-MacBook-Pro:Library-iPhone mohamedhamada$ idevicerestore -u --6DB4AE27928942E0F045F5B33B7843EDCABBDEC7 -c iPhone5,2_8.3_12F70_Restore.ipsw

Try this instead:

$ idevicerestore -u 6DB4AE27928942E0F045F5B33B7843EDCABBDEC7 -c iPhone5,2_8.3_12F70_Restore.ipsw

If that doesn't work, I think that the device has to be paired in order to enter recovery mode. Try these commands and report the results:

$ idevicepair -u 6DB4AE27928942E0F045F5B33B7843EDCABBDEC7 validate
$ ideviceenterrecovery -u 6DB4AE27928942E0F045F5B33B7843EDCABBDEC7

One last thought: you will not be able to restore an iOS 8.3 IPSW because Apple is no longer signing that version. Try downloading and restoring the 8.4 IPSW.

[mohamedhamada]

Hi @aburgh,

Thanks for your reply and I am sorry for not styling my answer.

I used your command but it doesn't work for me and when using these commands:

$ idevicepair -u 6DB4AE27928942E0F045F5B33B7843EDCABBDEC7 validate
$ ideviceenterrecovery -u 6DB4AE27928942E0F045F5B33B7843EDCABBDEC7

That is the result:

Mohameds-MacBook-Pro:Library-iPhone mohamedhamada$ idevicepair -u 6DB4AE27928942E0F045F5B33B7843EDCABBDEC7 validate
No device found with udid (null), is it plugged in?

Can you help me with Team Viewer?

I know that is Apple is no longer signing that version, this custom IPSW (renamed Setup.app) to iCloud bypass.

Hi, how can i get firmware keys for ipod 5,1 ios 8.4.1 ?

[markcoker]

This clearly has nothing to do with idevicerestore nor with this issue. Please don't ask these questions here.

https://ipsw.me/keys - Any currently publicly available keys are here.

If you want to learn about firmware key visit: google.com... (but also these:)

Please is it possible to use the command -c for undecrypted ipsw (rootfs). This error also occurred when I used the ios version 9.2.1 (latest)

[nikias]

-c is for custom firmwares. These only work on devices with a bootrom/iboot exploit. You can't use it for newer devices anyway (> iPhone 4). The output you have shows that you might have used an older libzip in case the ipsw file is not corrupted. Compile the latest libzip to be sure it can handle files >= 2GB.
