32bit-OTA-Downgrader

  • This script can be used to downgrade almost any supported 32-bit device to iOS 8.4.1
  • iPhone 4S and some iPad 2 devices also have the option to downgrade to iOS 6.1.3 (UNTESTED)
  • This can also be used to enter pwnDFU mode for all supported devices

Some other notes:

  • You do NOT need blobs to use this, the script will save them for you
  • For iPhone 5C, 8.4.1 OTA DOWNGRADING IS NOT SUPPORTED! Supports entering pwnDFU mode ONLY
  • This script uses the futurerestore method for downgrading, NOT the Odysseus method nor modifying SystemVersion.plist
  • This script will use a vanilla/unmodified IPSW to restore
  • This script only uses iBSS patches from bundles for entering pwnDFU mode, NOT for creating a custom IPSW

Prerequisites:

  • A supported jailbroken A5 or A6 iOS device on iOS 5 to 10 (Phoenix for 9.3.5/9.3.6, h3lix for 10.3.3/10.3.4) (supported devices are listed below)
  • iOS 8.4.1 or 6.1.3 IPSW for your device
  • A Linux install or live USB (Tested on Lubuntu 16.04, 18.04, Manjaro, and Arch Linux) (a live USB can be easily created with tools like balenaEtcher or Rufus)
  • OpenSSH installed on iOS device
  • MTerminal installed on iOS device (10.x users only)
  • iOS 7 Pangu users should install the latest Pangu 7.1.x Untether
  • iOS 8 Pangu users should install the latest Pangu 8.0-8.1.x Untether
  • For VirtualBox users, add a New USB Filter in the VM settings
  • For VMWare users, enable Autoconnect USB Devices
  • The computer and device must be on the same network (for SSH)

How to use:

  • When the prerequisites are met, usage should be straightforward:
  1. Download or git clone this repo
  2. Open Terminal, cd to the directory where the scripts are located (example: cd /home/user/32bit-OTA-Downgrader)
  3. Run chmod +x install.sh downgrader.sh
  4. Run ./install.sh
  5. Run ./downgrader.sh
  6. Select option to be used (8.4.1/6.1.3 downgrade or just enter pwnDFU mode)
  7. Follow instructions
