1.2 Comprender el límite de tiempo para la degradación de iOS

Todo el proceso de degradación de una versión de iOS es sensible al tiempo, algo que muchos usuarios desconocen. Hablemos de esto en detalle.

  • Si tiene instalada una versión beta de iOS, puede cambiar la versión beta de iOS a una versión estable anterior en cualquier momento que desee (hasta que se publique la versión pública oficial de iOS).
  • Después del lanzamiento de la versión pública estable de iOS, solo tiene 14 días para cambiar su dispositivo a una versión anterior de iOS existente.

1.3 Seleccione la versión correcta para degradar desde iOS 15

Idealmente, solo puede degradar iOS 15 a una versión estable anterior. Por ejemplo, si desea hacer una versión anterior de iOS 15, solo puede volver a su versión estable anterior, que está firmada por Apple. Puede visitar IPSW.me para verificar si el firmware compatible está disponible.

1.4 Saber cómo hacer un downgrade a una versión que ya no está firmada por Apple (si es necesario)

Como sabe, para degradar iOS 15, debe realizar los pasos necesarios dentro de los 14 días posteriores a su lanzamiento oficial. Además, los usuarios solo pueden retroceder a una versión estable anterior. Sin embargo, si ha pasado la duración de 14 días y desea cambiar a una versión que ya no está firmada por Apple, entonces necesita usar una herramienta de terceros. Con la ayuda de herramientas como TinyUmbrella o TaigOne Downgrader, puede instalar cualquier versión de iOS compatible en el dispositivo. Imitan la firma de Apple, permitiéndonos instalar firmware personalizado (versión iOS) en iDevices.

Aunque todo el proceso sería bastante técnico y podría no dar resultados positivos. Dado que estas herramientas de terceros no son compatibles con Apple, debe liberar su dispositivo para hacerlo. Esto no se recomienda ya que afectará la garantía de su dispositivo y tampoco tendrá acceso a las versiones oficiales de iOS. Además, hará que su dispositivo sea vulnerable a amenazas de seguridad no deseadas.

What are SHSH blobs for iPhone?

Both SHSH and SHSH2 blobs are referred to digital signatures deployed by Apple on respective IPSW files. This protects the authenticity of the IPSW files and only signed software would be installed on the device. When Apple releases a new iOS version, it stops signing the previous version. In this way, users need to upgrade to the latest public iOS version. This is where previously saved SHSH blobs are used to forge these signatures in order to downgrade our devices.

Part 4. iOS 15 Downgrading Troubleshooting

4.1 iOS 15 Downgrade Failed Many Times

This is one of the most common issues that users face while downgrading their iOS devices. The chances are that while downgrading your device, the process would stop in between unexpectedly.

It happens when we try to downgrade the device to an incompatible iOS version. A faulty internet connection or low free space on the device can also trigger it.

Quick Fixes:
  • Check the iOS version: Needless to say, if you are trying to downgrade your device to an iOS version it no longer supports, then you might face unwanted issues. Ideally, you should try to downgrade iOS 15 to a previous version and not any other existing one.
  • Have a stable internet connection: An inconsistent internet connection is another prominent cause for this error. It happens when the download of the iOS update is halted in between (due to a poor connection). Therefore, make sure that the device stays connected to a working and fast internet connection for a seamless downgrading. You can go to your phone’s WiFi settings to further diagnose this.

4.2 iOS Stuck in Recovery/DFU Mode/Apple Logo

While downgrading your device, your phone might get stuck in the recovery mode, Apple logo, or the DFU mode screen. The situation might seem a bit tedious, but you can try to resolve it by forcefully restarting your phone in most of the cases.

Downgrading from an unstable version, the download process of the firmware update has been halted in between, or any other firmware related issue.

Quick Fixes:
  • Forcefully restart your device: By applying the correct key combinations, we can forcefully restart an iOS device and resolve this issue. Since it resets the current power cycle of the device, it is also known as a soft reset. If you own an iPhone 6s or an older generation phone, then long press the Power and Home button for at least 10 seconds. Users with an iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus can press the Power and the Volume Down button. Keep pressing them until your phone restarts. For iPhone 8 and newer versions, you need to quick-press the Volume Up button first. Let it go and quick-press the Volume Down button. Subsequently, hold the Side button and let it go once the phone restarts.
  • Connect it to iTunes: In case if your phone is stuck in recovery or DFU mode, and you haven’t connected it to iTunes, then do the same. In no time, iTunes will automatically detect that your device is in the recovery mode and display the following prompt. Just confirm your choice and restore your device to factory settings to fix this.

4.3 iOS 15 Downgrade stuck on “Attempting data recovery”

The final step in the downgrading process is when the existing data on the device is recovered. Though, while doing so, the device might get stuck in the process and end up in the same loop.

An incompatible iOS version, loose connections, jailbroken device, lack of free storage, or any other related issue.

Quick Fixes:
  • Check whether your iPhone is jailbroken: Mostly, users get this error while performing iOS 15 downgrade on a jailbroken device. If your device is jailbroken, then you should not use iTunes to downgrade it. Instead, use a readily available tool like iFaith or TinyUmbrella to do the same.
  • Boot your iPhone in Recovery Mode: You can also take the assistance of iTunes and boot your device in the Recovery Mode to resolve this problem. To do this, just launch iTunes on your system and connect your phone to it. Now, using the correct key combinations, forcefully restart your device (already listed above). Subsequently, iTunes will detect as soon as your phone boots in the Recovery Mode. When you get the following prompt, click on the “Restore” button to reset your device.

4.4 iOS 15 Downgrade with iTunes won’t work

Most of the users take the assistance of iTunes (and an IPSW file) to downgrade iOS 15. Though, if there is a problem with the file, your device, or iTunes, then the process might not work.

An unsupported version of iTunes, corrupt IPSW file, or conflict with the device itself can result in this error.

Quick Fixes:
  • Check the IPSW file: Firstly, make sure that you have downloaded the correct IPSW file from a trusted source. Also, the IPSW file should be compatible with your iOS device else you might face this issue.
  • Disable Find my iPhone: Before you connect your device to iTunes, make sure that the Find my iPhone feature is disabled in it. To do this, go to its iCloud Settings > Find my iPhone and simply turn off this feature. This will not cause any conflict when you undo an iOS 15 update on iPhone.
  • Update iTunes: Needless to say, you should use an updated version of iTunes to downgrade iOS 15. Just launch iTunes on your system and go to Help > Check for Updates. This will make iTunes check for any available update. After finishing the update, you can restart your system and reconnect your device.

4.5 iPhone stuck in a loop trying to restore during downgrade

Quick Fixes:
  • Force restart your device: This will reset the present power cycle of your device and will let you fix any minor issue related to it. To do this, you need to press certain keys on your device. We have already listed the correct key combinations to force restart a device in the previous sections.
  • Restart the process: If the downgrading process has been halted in between and your phone keeps restarting, then force restart it first. Now, connect it to iTunes or use any other third-party tool to undo an iOS 15 update on iPhone all over again.

Wrong SHSH blob, corrupt unit by a third-party dump, or an expired SHSH blob can be some of the major reasons for this.

Quick Fixes:
  • Use an SHSH blobs dumper: There are tons of readily available third-party SHSH dumpers (like iFaith) that you can try. Though, most of these applications will require a jailbroken device. You can simply connect your device or provide its model to obtain an ideal SHSH blob.
  • Obtain your device’s SHSH blob: You can connect your iPhone/iPad to the system and launch iTunes on it. Select your device and go to its Summary.

When we install an iOS version on the device, the Apple server asks for a digital signature to authenticate it. A signed IPSW file would have a verified signature issued by Apple, letting us upgrade/downgrade the device without any hassle. Therefore, if an IPSW file is not signed by Apple, then it will not be recognized by the server and the upgrading/downgrading process won’t be completed.

There are all kinds of SHSH dumps and readily available third-party tools that can help us force Apple’s signature and create SHSH blobs even after Apple stops signing them. Though, you should know that Apple might revoke the authentication of such SHSH blobs anytime. To do this, you need to have a jailbroken device and use a dedicated tool like iFaith or FutureRestore.

The Apple Software Program lets us test the releases of iOS before the public availability. You can join or leave the program anytime you want without spending anything. If you want to leave it, then go to the Unenroll section of the website.

After downgrading an iOS update, you might find an existing software profile on your device storage. To remove this, just go to your device’s Settings > General > Profile and select the iOS profile from here. Tap on the “Delete Profile” option and confirm your choice to remove it.

You can restore a previously stored SHSH blob from your device or forge Apple’s signature. There are a few third-party tools like FutureRestore that can help you do the same.
