| Subject: iTunes 11.1 Kills Custom Restore IPSWs for iOS 7 Sun Sep 22, 2013 12:58 pm | |
| iH8Sn0w, the hacker behind Sn0wBreeze, reveals that Apple has killed the ability to restore custom IPSWs for iOS 7 with the release of iTunes 11.1. -- So iTunes 11.1 seems to kill Custom IPSWs for iOS 7. Alternatives will be needed to perform custom restores. (More technically, iTunes 11.1 recalculates the partial-hash of every img3 instead of using the ones in BuildManifest.plist). Which results in modified images having a different hash and being rejected by Apple’s TSS. In other news, iTunes 11.1 also breaks iREB on s5l8900x devices (iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, and iPod touch 1G). -- Thankfully, it appears as though iH8Sn0w is already working on a tool to restore without iTunes.
