I THINK I BRICKED MY IPHONE
So a couple months ago i updated to ios7 before the release date and everythings been working absolutely fine since. Just now, my phone came up with a message saying "activation required" so i tried to activate it and it came up with a message saying "this device is not registered as a part of the iphone developer program. If you are a member of the iphone developer program register your device in the iphone developer program portal at http://developer.apple.com/iphone" and i can't do anything with my phone now. Please Help did i brick my phone? How to i get out of this!
Just happened to me too. I downloaded the IOS7 Beta in July. People I have asked are saying Apple is cracking down on it. The only way I think you could fix it is if you force install the old firmware 6.1.4 and update it again
You go to this link http://www.redsn0w.us/2013/09/download-7… And download the iOS 7.0.2 ipsw firmware for your appropriate apple device. After that, you connect your apple device to iTunes and you go to the device summary. From there you hold the shift key and click on "check for update" at the same time. Then a pop up should come out on your screen, and you search for the firmware you downloaded. After you find the firmware click on it and your device should start to update. After completion you will still see the error but ignore that. Unlock the screen and from there it will ask you to sign in with your apple ID, do that and will unlock your apple device.
BE SURE TO HAVE THE LATEST VERSION OF ITUNES.
---Note that if you have an iPhone you MIGHT NOT have service for a couple of minutes but you will eventually get service again.
If iTunes doesn't detect your iPhone, try putting it in recovery mode. If you don't know how, search for a tutorial on YouTube; it's really easy.
- You think I could buy a iPhone 5 if i work what you guys think? You guys think that if i work at McDonald or any store i can afford to buy the iPhone 5? And pay every month
- Will my iPhone 5 get bricked if i get ios 7 beta for free? I was just curious because i really want to get ios 7 for free after seeing a few youtube videos demonstrating on how to get it but i heard that when beta 2 releases for ios 7 that my iPhone 5 will get bricked. If that's the case i don't want to get ios 7 but if it's possible to unbrick my iPhone 5 can someone tell me? Can i downgrade from ios 7 to ios 6?
- My bricked iPhone won't support a charge. It was previously non-tetheredly jailbroken? It's a 16gb iPhone 3gs. I jailbroke it but it was untethered so it became bricked. It started with not charging on the computer and then not charging on the wall charger and then eventually not holding a charge.
- IPhone 4 is it bricked or just the battery? Okay so i dropped my iphone 4 in the sink by accident for like 10 seconds and now i tried to restore by using tinyumbrella and now the apple logo appears (no longer in recovery mode) but like 5 seconds after the apple logo appears and then fades and it does that process the whole doesn't it get past it so is it a dead battery or is it completely gone iphone 4?
