Restoring Failed

[Arna13]

Something similar happened to me, I got it fixed by restoring to 15.5 with Finder and then running the script again.

@Arna13 so restore back to 15.5 using Finder or Apple Configurator, then when that's done use the script and see if it works?

[Arna13]

Yep! That worked for me when facing an error similar to yours.

Will try this now @Arna13 and see if it works without errors

[Aholicknight]

It finally restored! Now to boot the iPhone @Arna13 (it is currently a black screen) would I use ra1nsn0w?

You use sunst0rm too, you can check the "Usage" section of my guide here if you have any doubts :)

@Arna13 I used the command provided in the readme, it finished building the ./boot.sh but the last message said "ensure device is in pwnDFU mode with sigchecks removed."

The phone is stuck in DFU mode, and when I try to use ./ipwndfu -p --rmsigchecks (I'm using a custom fork of ipwndfu which worked during the restore + other times) it keeps saying ERROR: Exploit failed. Device did not enter pwned DFU Mode. over and over:

[Arna13]

If you read carefully the guide, it explains what is happening!

Your phone is in a "fake" dfu mode, even if it looks like it is in dfu, you need to press Pwr + Home for 10s and then keep holding Home for 10s, then your phone should reconnect.

Try doing that and pwning again, it should work :)

@Arna13 Doing what you said works, then I ran ./boot.sh then it boots the verbose prompt loading checkm8 then as soon as that's done it goes right back into DFU mode.

Did you run the boot preparation command with --kpp?

[Aholicknight]

Did you run the boot preparation command with --kpp?

@Arna13 Yes the command I used was:

python3 sunstorm.py -i "/Users/aholicknight/Documents/iPhoneFirmwares/iPhone_4.7_14.3_18C66_Restore.ipsw" -t "/Users/aholicknight/Desktop/futurerestorebeta/15.5-19F77.shsh2" -b -d "n71map" --kpp -id "iPhone8,1"

[Aholicknight]

@Arna13 Any updates regarding this? Should I have used --kpp or no? The phone is a iPhone 6S that has the A9 CPU

[mineek]

For iPhone 6S use --kpp

[Aholicknight]

For iPhone 6S use --kpp

@mineek I will redo the entire process but this time keep using -kpp and no longer use " for the commands as well and see if it works

[Aholicknight]

@mineek @Arna13 Still does the same thing as before, in case you need to see the ./boot.sh create process this is the output of the command

Verbose output from the iPhone can be viewed here:
