Today i came across some posts of people saying that they where banned from their Apple IDs out of nowhere, i saw that they had a similarity, they used a iPhone with some sort of modification on its Software like:

- AltStore/Sidestore
- Jailbreak
- Custom APPs sideloaded into their iPhones and then banned because of the App IDs

So what is happening? I have legacy devices like a 5s, 4s and 3gs with jailbreaks, all of them with updates disabled. Am i affected?

Title makes the question the i need, i only need a icon pack that has all macOS 27 Golden Gate dark mode icons, i've only found the macOS 27 Light Mode icons. Thanks!

I scan the QR CODE, i start the bluetooth device but it never finishes and gives me an error saying “We couldn’t pair you device. Try again”

In every iphone i have it does thay except my iPhone 7 Plus. What i do to fix it?

I have here an iPhone 5s running 10.3.3 and i wanted to ser how to restore YouTube, its a 64-bit device

I used firefox from 2020/2021 and back there i didnt really like the browser that much, i had an old HP Laptop from 2009 running Windows 10 at the time, firefox lagged a lot and like in march of 2021 i went to chrome and used until august of 2022 when i got my new laptop i used Chrome there for a month and then i saw the Opera GX ads on youtube that said “opera gx is a gaming browser” and i installed and liked and i used for like 4 years. Back there i installed whatever browser people suggested, now i regret that.

So why i changed to Firefox? I saw some allegations about opera gx being a spyware and owned by a chinese company, and i changed to opera gx as some friends of mine told me that was very good now than 2021, and i installed, moved my stuff to there, and i realized that is so much better and so much smoother than the browser i used, and had more personalization options than opera, i personalized it, installed some extensions that i use and i realized, the cause of firefox being super bugged and laggy in 2021 was because of the pc i used there, now with a even powerful machine i use it with no problems and not of any of those things that i had, also i have lots of laptops, that i use, installed firefox there and logged into my Mozilla account and it started downloading all my personalization settings, extensions, everything!

Of course, there are many features different of opera but i learned how to use them. And i finally can say this was the best decision ever, switch from a supposed “gaming browser” to an real, trusted browser.

Sometime ago the iPhone 4s had 4 possible versions to install, that are still signed, those are

iOS 6.1.3
iOS 8.4.1
iOS 9.3.5
iOS 9.3.6

Those where the most common versions to install in an iPhone 4s but recently Legacy iOS KIT added the any version downgrade option, like iOS 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0 and onwards, that downgrade is untethered (to what i know) and it killed mostly the rarety of having like iOS 6.0, 5.0 or even 7.0 in an iPhone 4s, now anyone can with their iPhone 4s can downgrade to whatever version they want. And so calling it “rare iphone 4s running iOS 5.0” for example. That now pretty much doesnt exist, i dont know if it applies the same as iOS Betas since to what i know mostly are dmgs (i can be wrong here)

So yeah, thats it for the rare ios version of the iPhone 4s.

The iPhone 11 is about to become the longest supported device (in terms of new iOS versions, for all types of updates this achievment goes to the iPhone 5s) ever made by apple!

- It got 7 major OS updates. iOS 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 26 and now 27! (Excluding 13, because it launched with iOS 13, but if we count that as an update, 8 major OS updates). 8 Years of support for major iOS updates, and probably 10+ years of support for security updates.

The rivals at the time (2019 - 2022) when the iPhone 11 was still being produced and sold as new have already reached the end of support for the major OS updates. Those rivals are the Samsung S10, S20, S21, S22.

All rumours of iPhone 11 being dropped in iOS 27 where completly wrong. Apple is letting people with less oportunities get one more update and save more money to upgrade they're phone. And with that, in my understating, this means, probably all iPhones will get an extra year of new iOS versions, so the iPhone 12 was supposed to end in iOS 27, now it will end in iOS 28, iPhone 13 is a diferent case, both the 13's and 14 base model are literally the same phone, so probably iOS 29/30 will be they're last version.

iOS 26 was a disaster, the only thign that "saved" was its new design (that for some people it made harder to read parts of the system that i agree, liquid glass is not that good in iOS 26, but now in iOS 27 with the new transperancy adjust you can make more Transperant, or more iOS 18 style) and the new features, the rest was pure chaos (in my opinion), to the point that iOS 18 was signed for more time so they fixed all the iOS 26 features and people who didn't want could go back to iOS 18 until the problems we're fixed. All iPhones we're somehow struggling to run it with no problems. So they decided to make the iOS 12 update again but with a new name. iOS 27!

iOS 12 was a perfomance update that supported all iOS 11 devices. Nowadays, iOS 27 is also a perfomance update with many new features that supports all iOS 26 devices!

Now for security updates/other updates lifespan of a phone, no company beats apple.

- iPhone 5s is a phone 13 years old already, and still getting updates, it got the iOS 12.5.8 (an update that extends its activation tickets to work past january of 2027) in january of 2026, no company is still dropping updates for a 9+ phone, only apple. This means they care about people with less oportunities and want to make phone last, as long as possible.

When i had my Xiaomi, it only lasted 2 years of support, only 3 Major OS updates, and then no security updates nor major.

Samsung is killing major OS support for the S23 (a 2023 phone!) next major OS update, after that only security updates. Apple is still supporting a 2019 phone with major iOS updates, and incredibly optimized in iOS 27, as i have one in the dev beta 3 and i have no bad opinions about it, its smooth and works very well.

For the past days i've been having a problem that apperently windows 11 doesn't shutdown "correctly" but i don't do anything wrong! I shutdown like a normal person, going to the start menu and clicking shutdown like normal. I did SFC /scannow fixed everything but it still says that it didn't shutdown correctly. Fast Startup problem? Should i disable it?

Hi! I have a simple question, is it possible to dualboot iOS 15 and iOS 10 (for example) in an iPhone 7 Plus? I have heard about dualra1n but it goes as far as i know iOS 13.6.0, and i dont really care if it is a dualboot tethered, i just want a OS that is untethered that is iOS 15, and an tethered secondary iOS like iOS 10. Is it possible?

I have here an Mediatek Android Device, it got its preloder corrupted, and it boots straight into BROM Mode, the pc detects it for 2-3 seconds then disconnects and reconnects with the same exact loop. I want help to one of these options:

- Dump the USERDATA partition to my PC
- Flash the Preloader to get a bootable device that goes into RECOVERY MODE so then i can plug into a pc and flash the userdata

In SP Flash Tools with the correct Scatter and rom it gives always the error 4032, i need urgently to find a way to retrieve the data.

The phone cannot be booted without battery. I have tools to open it up, but not dessorter the eMMC storage.

What can i do to retrieve the user partition data?
I only need 3 things from that

Documents, Photos and vides (basically all of the DCIM folder data)

My phone is bricked, and to restore it i need a rom for it that is from the Taiwan Region, but i can't find it anywhere! Anyone has link for it?

Sometime ago, my asus zenfone go started malfunctioning, it doesnt boot, but the pcs identifies it, the screen doesnt turn on, but the phone connects and disconnects repeatedly even after installing drivers, it wont enter BROM mode, i can read back the phone in sp flash tool, it gives sometimes error 5054 in DRAM failed to get settings in sp flash tool and MTK client, it uses a MTK6580 , i read that some models use other MTK like the MTK6582 and other a cortex, but i cant do anything, i just need to get it atleast brom mode or preloader mode to get access to the eMMC user partition on the phone to retrieve my data as it doesn’t boot neither power on the screen.

What i can do to get it working and access only the user partition. It uses android 5.0 and the battery works as it charges and the charger heats up meaning its sending power.

This phone died like 1 year ago when trying to boot, it started showing the asus logo and going on and off, then died, it takes charge as the charger starts heating up, but the led on the phone does not turn on. When i left it to charge for a bit and plug to my pc it recognizes, sometimes. flash fails with error: "S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL" , the pc detects the phone as MediaTek Preloader , but fails to flash, it an Mediatek6850M phone, android 5.0 , i do not have money neither time to change socket or ram whatever, i only need it to either:

- Boot to the lowest mode possible so i can acess the filesysttem and backup into my PC
- Atleast recognise in ADB

Thanks!

I hate the new UI and i want to get the old back, changing the flags doesn't do anything sicne it reverts or refuses to load them, even settings to read-only.

Today i went to my apple developer software restore image downloads, and i went to the iOS 16.7.16 and it appears to now support the iPhone 7 according to apple! It can be a typo. But interesting that iOS 15.8.8 doesn't show the iPhone 7 option

I have here an Asus Zenfone GO Z00VD that i put to charge, it popped the asus logo like 4 times and then shut off compltly, it has a removable battery, and i need to recover all the photos, videos, and files from it, when i plug sometimes to my 17 year old pc, it sometimes recognizes, but doing a flash update gives me DRAM error, i was wondering, how i can retireve its data? I opened the phone and i took a look at the motherboard, it seemed fine, battery pins normal, everything normal, i have no dessolder tools, i have pretty much no money to fix as i just bought an iPhone 13, and i'm gathering all data from my older devices such as photos and videos to it. So what i can do to recober my photos and videos from it? I have 3 pcs, one with Windows 10, and other 2 with Windows 11, i can make a VM with macOS, Linux or other windows version.

I have an HP laptop with a ryzen 5 5600H with 32gb of ram, and it has 2 gpus, a GTX 1650 with 4gb of memory, and its integrated with 512mb, with this little memory it crashes often, and i wanna know if it is possible to increase the integrated graphics card memory to like 1gb of memory, so it wont crash often.

Edit: i typed 512gb (i am a dumass ik) its 512mb not 512gb

Back in 2020 I made a Microsoft account literally just for the Minecraft migration thing, and over time it became my secondary account since it has all my games and purchases on it now.

Then in 2021 I made my actual personal Microsoft account, the one linked to my PC, Office, OneDrive, etc.

As most ppl already know, Microsoft doesn’t let u merge 2 Microsoft accounts together.

BUT I found a workaround that makes things way easier if u just want both accounts connected to the same inbox.

Here’s the tutorial:

1. Log into ur secondary Microsoft account
2. (the one with the games/purchases)
3. Create an Outlook email and link it to the secondary Microsoft account
4. If u already created one before but it isn’t linked to the account, link it first before continuing.
5. Open Outlook settings
6. Go to:
7. Settings → Mail → Forwarding / IMAP
8. Enable automatic forwarding
9. In the forwarding email box, type ur MAIN Microsoft account email

If it goes to spam the first time, just mark it as “not spam” and after that it should work normally.

IMPORTANT PART (don’t skip this):

9. Make the new Outlook email the PRIMARY alias of the secondary Microsoft account

If u don’t do this, Microsoft can still send security emails, login alerts, verification codes, etc to the old primary email instead of the Outlook one.

10. Go into the Security settings/tab

Make sure:
- Security alerts
- Verification codes
- Recovery emails
- Login notifications

are all using the new Outlook email u created.

11. Optional:
    If u don’t need the old email anymore, u can remove it from the secondary account.

And that’s basically it.

It’s obviously not a real Microsoft account merge, but it makes both accounts feel connected since everything goes into the same inbox while still keeping the accounts separate.

Today i got a message from instagram on whatsapp for a code that i didn't request, after i logged into instagram, i got logged out, password changed, and email change to this email: "rdokj9133@neegax.com", but the hacker didn't change my phone number, and he forgot to remove my verification selfie, with that i was able to retrieve the account and kick the guy out. Next was my Discord, it got hacked in the sameway, but i got into it quick and changed the password. After was my facebook, the samething as instagram. Yesterday was my primary Google Account, google helped me getting it back, same thing for my microsoft account. The guy is still trying to get in, as i'm getting emails of failed login attempts by google. 3 emails got leaked and password leaked, which where, my primary google account, my secondary and my School Google account, for the school account, it was easy, they don't let anyone outside of my country log into it, and change passwords, so i just changed the password of it, my secondary was almost acessed, but i changed quickly the password, same as my main one.

One of my emails that didn't get leaked was my iCloud Email, i changed all of my passwords and emails to it, as i didn't get its password and email leaked, and its not that easy to hack it, as i have 3 iphones which to login one as to allow the login and i have to type an code to enter. For the google account, Microsoft Acccount, Instagram, Facebook and Discord account, the guy bypassed somehow the 2FA, not to worry as i changed the email and password, so it wont be easy for him to enter now.

And what this means, one of my computers, my secondary one, used by my family, problably got a Trojan and stole everything, and it seems the trojan hid himself in the regedit to exclude him from being detected by Windows Defender, now, i don't see any strange processes in the machine. First of all, I DON'T WANNA LOSE MY DATA from that PC, as it has lots of informations and programs that my family uses, and resetting it, would bring much trouble and problems to me. So i need to find a way to verify if the virus is still there, how to remove it, and make the final verification to see if it got removed and its safe to use the PC.

Also i want to know if bypassing the 2FA is possible (and how it was problably done for me to all my accounts with 2FA being bypassed). My primary PC is cleaned i checked everything and its cleaned. I have so much accounts that i use and need to change it to my iCloud Email, just to be safe.

So what i do now?
