Just wanted to come on here and add that using this program worked! Following all the instructions carefully, it seems to have successfully reset and restored the new iOS onto this phone.
Quick suggestions for clarity in the documentation instructions:
- Mention that users should install the Release DMG for the app (I initially was unclear and cloned the repo, but just need to download the release pkg)
- For iPhones 8 and up, the proper instructions to enter recovery mode is to 1. tap volume up, 2. tap volume down, 3. hold power button until screen goes black, apple logo, and then "connect to computer" screen shows.
- Move this instruction:
Important: Before opening the MDMPatcher app, open Finder, click on your iPad, and wait for it to finish activating (it will show "Get Started"). You may need to unplug and reconnect the cable if you encounter issues.
above this instruction:
Open the MDMPatcher app on your Mac.
Since you say to wait for finish activating BEFORE opening MDMPatcher. Would help with clarity slightly.
Thank you so much for creating this tool!
