Downgrade iPhone or iPad to an older version of iOS

Hi friends, today's tutorial we will see how we can get back to iOS iOS 8.1.3 8.1.2 to Apple devices
Although the update to the latest version of iOS is available 8.1.3 few days, still can return to the previous version iOS 8.1.2
Why do I want to downgrade from iOS version superior to the previous one?
A likely reason is that you do not like how it moves iOS device 8.1.3 on your site, especially if you have an iPhone or an iPad 4S or 5 older generation, or perhaps you have problems with some applications.
Another reason is that there are no current method Jailbreak iOS 8.1.3. The latest version is that you can make Jailbreak iOS 8.1.2
What to know before making a version downgrade from iOS superior to the previous one?
When you connect your Apple device to the PC data cable and use iTunes to make an update or restore a version of iOS, Apple iTunes will check your device and iOS version and sign the version of iOS Apple servers you are going to a restaurant or updates you.
Now that we know these luccruri have known that Apple just signed version of iOS iOS penultimate version available and can be signed and verified only a short period of time (maximum 1 week) since the launch of the latest version.
For example: The latest version of iOS is 8.1.3 and 8.1.2 is penultimate. For 8.1.3 iOS was released recently, Apple will sign for a short time previous version / penultimate (iOS 8.1.2).
Because the "gate" through which Apple still signs the penultimate version of iOS (8.1.2) is open, we can return to iOS 8.1.2 from iOS 8.1.3. When Apple decides to close the "gate" by which it signs the penultimate version of iOS, the return to iOS 8.1.2 from iOS 8.1.3 will no longer be possible because iTunes will no longer be able to sign the iOS 8.1.2 operating system with the servers Apple.
At the time I made this tutorial (1.02.2015) Apple still signs 8.1.2 iOS version which made it possible to return from iOS to iOS 8.1.3 8.1.2 In the tutorial I presented and how can we know if Apple iOS 8.1.2 May signed yet and all the way presented in the tutorial we learn about future versions and if will be signed or not
Recovery procedure from iOS to iOS 8.1.3 8.1.2 is available for any device running iOS 8.1.3
If you wish to return to Jailbreak iOS 8.1.2 after I invite you to watch our tutorial about Jailbreak Tutorial iPhone or iPad versions 8.0 and 8.1.2
If you do not know what Jailbreak for iPhone and iPad invite you to watch our tutorial about Jailbreak on iPhone and iPad, what it is and what it uses

  2. how can return to ios 7 ??????????? or may ??

    • Adrian Gudus said

      Unfortunately not, I thought I was pretty clear in the tutorial. Once Apple is no longer signing older versions, you can not revert to a previous version.

  3. Hi Adrian,

    What happens if I jailbreak iOS 8.1.2 by resetting my iPhone? Will it automatically update to iOS 8.1.3 somehow? And if so, I'll have to hurry because I'll have to downgrade from iOS 8.1.3 to 8.1.2 exactly as you presented us here. Correct? Currently I have iOS 8.1.2 on an iPhone 4S… Ms

        Most likely you have downloaded the wrong version of iOS. I have repeatedly mentioned in the tutorial to be very careful what download! You must download the image .ipsw your specific device. If you rewind the tutorial and made the mistake of not reading the entire text of the above tutorial is your fault not ours.
        Do not force anyone to put into practice what we do in tutorials, each assumes facts and consequences of what happened after their application. November posted a video tutorial and the choice of whether or not in practice tutorial stay free will
        With your phone connected to iTunes, click "Restore iPhone"
        If all else fails go, put the phone in DFU Mode. To put the phone in DFU mode follow these steps:
        - leave the iPhone connected to the data cable and iTunes on, in the foreground on the Desktop
        - hold down the Power and Home buttons simultaneously (the middle one) for 10 seconds (count them in your mind)
        - after 10 seconds you take your finger off the Power button but keep holding the Home button until iTunes displays the message in a pop-up "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode". After that message displayed by iTunes, the iPhone screen must be black, not display anything (this means you are in DFU mode)
        From here on, click on "Restore iPhone…" without holding down the Shift key as shown in the tutorial.

      • Adrian Gudus said

        The error occurs when you received the PC software of all kinds of security / security suite. This error occurs because the firewall or security software prevents proper communication of your PC with your device or block access to Apple's iTunes servers.
        As clearly mentioned in the tutorial, verify and sign iTunes iOS version of Apple's servers. From here, consequential logic to infer that can make iTunes restore, update or downgrade must have an Internet connection that can communicate with Apple's servers to sign iOS version.
        If security software or firewall blocking the connection between iTunes and Apple servers or between iTunes and PC clearly when problems arise.

      Unfortunately there is currently a solution for this. There was at one time and we did a video tutorial about this topic but the method does not work. Then came another CallRomania service offering similar services but unfortunately no services offered by them, you can not find out who is calling you to hide. The method does not work for either CallRomania from January 1

    For those who are not clear about the ownership of the iPhone model (GSM or Global) can check on the back of the device at the bottom. All Apple devices have a series that indicates its model immediately after "Assembled in China". For me, for example, I have the A1457 series
    Once you know the series, go to the website http://support.apple.com/ro-ro/HT3939 scroll down the page until you find your model mentioned (iPhone 4S, 5, 5C, 5S, 6 or 6 Plus) and read the "Model number" where that series (A1457 in my case) on the back of the device falls .
    WARNING: There are probably times when you purchased your device at hand 2 has and probably you are not sure whether housing your iPhone is the original or not. Only original series mentioned on the device's casing will reflect the model / hardware that is in the case.
    Those who want to check if the case of the owned Apple device is the original one or has been changed, can note the IMEI displayed on the back at the bottom and then go to iPhone in Settings> General> Information> IMEI
    If IMEI Information is displayed in the same as printed on the device's back side, it is clear that your device's housing is changed, the original one may be all but taken from another device.

  13. Do you own or have purchased hosting server somewhere? We work well site.

    • We have a strong Dedicated server (RAID with SSDs, dual Gigabit connection) in a "true" data center, pw web we have Apache in the back and Nginx in the front (reverse proxy), we have Memcached working mother in hand with Varnish (everything loads from ram), we have our own "true" streaming server for flash and pseudo streaming for serving in HTML5, we have many static files that are loaded from Amazon servers "cloudfront edge cache" and we have super fast cache from CloudFlare cache and firewall ", we are ready even for Spdy.
      It is a more advanced configuration that fits perfectly for videotutorial.ro. Nowadays no one waits 3 seconds to load a page, the pages must be loaded "yesterday" if possible.
      Other sites require other configurations and those who are just starting out with a website do not need this. A hosting package from a hosting company good enough.
      I could make a tutorial about stuff but I do not think too many people are interested.

      Make the extensions visible in Windows and then right click on the downloaded "archive" and rename it by deleting ".rar" or ".zip" and put ".ipsw" then press the Enter key and give OK
      If you do not know how visible file extensions in Windows, leave a comment with the version of Windows that you have (XP, Vista, Windows 7, 8 Windows) and I will tell you the steps

    Question Videotutorial.ro team
    One can install iTunes on Ubuntu?
    I gave up an iPhone and could not charge anything for him, only I have access to laptop has installed Linux on it. And I chose to give the phone but to remain with Ubuntu.
    Now I am offered an Ipad 4 tablet, if I can't transfer my movies from my laptop to my tablet, I didn't do anything… ..
    I even tried twice to put iTunes through "guilt" But apart from blocking the device I could not remove anything from the installation.

  21. Hi, I still hold 1 ipad wifi and unfortunately I did update to iOS 9, and states that move as a low-cost product (not to name names to be mischievous). What can I do to save your iPad before it reaches the trash !!! Neither iOS or 8 7 were not ok.

    • I also noticed that he was moving very badly. I thought it seemed to me, but even my little girl noticed that she frequently uses the apple tablet on it. I don't kill myself with these "apples". Every time I try to use the "fruit", it seems to stop in my throat.
      I think I rushed to update. If you are thinking well would not have released this update as much does not.
      I saw that they will soon release iOS 9.1, which will probably fix the lag, or make it worse, who knows…

  22. Hello, I made the mistake of my install iOS 9.1, then I realized it's not inregula and I returned to ios 9.4.1, I installed it, up here all good and beautiful, but we found that calls, list where saved or missed calls made, no longer save any calls.

  23. Hi, I have an iphone 4s and recently out of curiosity I renewed the ios from 8.3 to 9.0….

  24. Hi

    I have an iphone 5, 7.1.2 version of Ios. I will not keep the battery at all (to 40% died) and I was advised to change his version of IOS, but I think that then will move hard f.
    Who can advise me and me can do?
    Catalina

    • Adrian Gudus said

      Purchase a new battery, go to a GSM service and changing the battery. The fact that the 40% battery, the iPhone dies, is a clear indication that the battery is gone. Plus many iPhone models Apple 5 were withdrawn because they have problems with the battery. There is an official page where you can check if your iPhone has problems with battery: https://www.apple.com/ro/support/iphone5-battery/
