Downgrade to iOS 12.1.4 is no longer possible

As usual, the guys from Cupertino have just closed the possibility of downgrading to a version other than the latest version that is currently available to all iOS users, number 12.2, since a few hours ago has stopped signing iOS 12.1.4, the immediately preceding update.

In this way, if you have a copy of your device's firmware of a version other than iOS 12.1.4, you can now erase themSince when you try to activate the device through Apple's servers, your device will not let you go through the activation process, staying in a loop from which you will not be able to exit unless you install the latest version of iOS.

Last Monday, the guys from Cupertino released the final version of iOS 12.2. This case is especially striking, since Apple has been in a great hurry to be able to stop signing the previous version. Generally, the guys at Tim Cook offer a period of two weeks so that users can update to the latest version and check if the operation is the most suitable.

If it is not, something that has already happened several times, we must restore to the previous version and wait for Apple to launch a new update where the malfunctions have been corrected.

For users who are still using the jailbreak, for now the latest supported version is iOS 12.1.2, so unless we publish new news in this regard, you should not update your device to iOS 12.2 under any circumstances.

If you do, you will be forced to forget, maybe definitively, jailbreak, since in recent years, it seems that the community has lost some of the interest it had, due in part to the fact that Apple has introduced a large number of the usual jailbreak tweaks that allowed us to customize the operation of our device.

    I think there is an error, everywhere in the article it appears that they are no longer signing 12.4.1 and the one they stopped signing is 12.1.4

      Sure. I have been ahead of Apple itself. Thanks for the note, it is already modified.

      Greetings.
