IPhone X DFU mode restore?

Long story short, I bought a phone on gumtree and my brother was helping me jailbreak it. He messed up somewhere and after some research i found out we should DFU restore it. What exactly happens? We also bought it in a rush (stupid I know) and realised the seller's apple ID and stuff is still on it and now I'm getting the feeling it might be stolen? Is there a way to find out whether it's stolen and if we find out it's not, will the DFU restore remove the apple ID?

Restoring via DFU mode does not remove the iCloud account on it. When you restore, you will be presented with a screen asking you to enter the password, without knowing the password it won't restore.

Also, there isn't a full jailbreak for the iPhone X. Even if everything worked as planned, you would have read and write access but not much to do with it. Cydia and Substrate has not been updated for iOS 11, it currently doesn't work at all. This is currently being updated.

  • What happens when you put your iphone into dfu mode when its turned on? I had my iphone on and put it into dfu mode( i think thats what its called ) but i held down the home and power button for ten seconds and then let go of the power button and continued to hold the home button for another ten seconds. My screen went black and now it won't turn on! I plugged it into itunes and restored it. Will that fix everything. If not help me please!

  • My iPhone 3GS keeps shutting down (or going dfu mode) at low battery Old bootrom, 5.1.1, bb 5.13, jail broken It doesn't shut down when battery is above 75% or so, but below it using heavy apps, calling creates problems… It was ok a month ago, then suddenly it starts… Whacky behavior
