Jun 06, 2019 I have an iPhone 6S, iOS 9.1 with Jailbreak. Yesterday I wanted to make a fresh install (did this once before without any problems) and I used CydiaEraser to restore it to factory settings. All went well until after the restart, when I can no longer activate the iPhone.
iTunes Flash is Available on 3uTools Now! Here’s the tutorial.
iTunes Flash: Original use iTunes to flash, and the flashing process is fully visualized, and the error can be automatically fixed in the process, or the repair suggestion will be given according to the error code.
On 3uTools, the iTunes Flash has three modes: Quick Flash Mode, Retain User’s Data and Anti-Recovery Flash.
※ Quick Flash Mode: This mode is suitable for maintenance staff, sales clerk and ordinary users to achieve these goals: update iOS version quickly; clear user data, restore to factory state or try to repair iOS version.
※ Retain User’s Data: This mode is only used to update the iOS version or try to repair the iOS version. All installed applications and user data in the iDevice will be preserved.
※ Anti-Recovery Flash: This mode is suitable for people who want to sell their own iDevice or want to destroy the private data inside the iDevice. Because each memory unit of the hard disk chip in the iDevice need to be formatted, the flashing speed will be very slow and take up to several hours.
Precautions:
※1. Please backup the important data before flashing, or check the box “Retain User’s Data” to prevent the loss of important data;
※2, please make sure that the iDevice has closed the activation lock, or know the ID lock account and password. Otherwise, the iDevice may not be activated after flashing.
