Options : a) hard reset b) restore with iTunes.

What really amazes me is how much police can pull from car computers. I am an attorney and once went to a training about all the phone data that can be pulled after someone connects their car to the Bluetooth.

Spigen via Amazon

How are you doing it? Press Vol up, release then volume down and hold power? Remember the screen will be completely blank

If it truly won’t go into DFU mode you’ll need to take it to Apple, they should do a restore for you even if out of warranty

There’s your answer. Once you start running out of storage, devices tend to act wonky. You have to clear up space

yeah in my case it wont even go into DFU for some reason, just gets ignored and can only go to apple logo loop or the connect to itunes screen

I use tech 21 I’ve seen mous was also a good choice and Dbrand

I updated it to the latest IOS before it completely bricked, hoping it will fix the issue

clear won't have as much protection as some non clear cases. I like spigen generally

You have to use a mag safe mount. Also most non-Apple mag safe cases aren’t as strong of magnets as Apple’s in my experience.

Mous

Call support, they may be able to help with an advanced recovery.

I have 6 notes. You lot are giving me mad anxiety with that amount of notes 😂

Your country weird bro 😂

At the time of that screenshot, 400 MB.

Why is the akinator app on your home bar?

Yeah but deleting WhatsApp or any social media/communications app when you’re angry makes complete sense. Deleting your notes app, not so much 😂

I use this program call iMazing to download all the stuff from my phone. It’s a one time paid program but it is very useful and secured. Hopes it help.

This is it normally By the way

"Officials of Apple Company" sounds fake.

From YouTube. I checked and it was actually 9.

I couldn’t agree more

I think the tweet and the article are misinformed. As you stated, Apple has said many times in the past that they don’t have the capability to unlock phones, and refuse to develop the capability to. When a subpoena is provided Apple provides any requested data from iCloud backups - if they have them.

Tim Cook is famously on the record as saying that he considers it a breach of civil liberties, as well as a massive compromise of the iPhones security to develop such ability. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/feb/22/tim-cook-apple-refusal-unlock-iphone-fbi-civil-liberties

He has historically shown himself to be a man of principle - there hasn’t been anything to say that his stance has changed. If anything Apple’s recent push on Privacy and Security just reinforces this (See the new Lockdown mode).

That’s not to say iPhone unlocks aren’t possible - they are, the most famous tool being one provided by Israeli security company Cellebrite. However depending on the device this either works by exploiting bugs and zero days, or by brute forcing.

But to say Apple came and unlocked the device I firmly don’t believe. They are simply misinformed in my opinion. I think it’s more likely they provided the data from iCloud backups and the police being non-technically minded made an incorrect statement.

I’ve had good luck with Spigen cases.

Yeah but I made that comment assuming he was trying to break into a phone that has it turned on. I always have it turned on on my phone personally.
