Trying to downgrade my software on iPhone 4S?
I know there are probably loads of similar questions but I can't find any that match my particular situation. So… I'm trying to jailbreak my iPhone 4S BUT my software version is 6.1.3… Yeah that sucks because evasi0n (the program I'll be using) breaks up to 6.1.2.So I have decided to try and "downgrade" my software version to 6.1.2. I downloaded the 6.1.2.ipsw and followed some instructions. I plugged my device in, went to the spot where it shows the "Restore iPhone" thing and I hold shift and alt and then click the "Restore iPhone". I located the.ipsw file and click that. I get an error saying the firmware in not compatible… What should I do? How can I make this work because I really want to jb my phone! Also, if you could explain this to me in simple terms that would be SUPER DUPER helpful! Thanks! ALSO, I'm not really sure what category to put this in so I just chose software.
So apple does not approve of jailbreakers.that's why they try to stop people from doing it by releasing updates. If you are on 6.1.3, I apologize but you can't jailbreak.apple restricts the ability to downgrade for this reason.each new update is not compatable with the previous to keep people from going back to older versions of iOS so they can jailbreak.
@ALEX Thank you! I have tried different websites to jailbreak unlock my iPhone but I couldn't jailbreak unlocked my phone. Friend of mine recommended your website and yes it worked. I'm glad that my iPhone is unlocked now.
ALEX Thank you i tried it and it WORKS

- Should I downgrade from iPhone Xs to iPhone 8? I recently got the iPhone Xs on contract and still have time to cancel and return. My previous phone was the iPhone 7 which has so many issues and needs to be fixed. I feel the Xs is a little too big to operate with one hand and weighs too much for my liking. Although I love everything else I need a phone that feels right. Is there any other phones out there worth considering that are similar in size to the iPhone 8. I want a phone with a great camera
