downgrading an iPhone 5 to iOS 6!

[@Paul_Iliadis]

Seeing iPhones on their original firmware is so satisfying, great tutorial!

[@edgarkoterle]

iOS 6 is still the best iOS for me. It was Apple's peak of graphic interface, stability and reliability

[@9852323]

Yup iOS 7 is ugly and what’s worse is iOS 17 is almost identical looking besides a few minor ui tweaks.

[@DarthG3nesis]

⁠@@9852323but these minor tweaks are actually good or they atleast they’re way better than iOS 7's Design itself

[@E50AK]

💯

[@looking_33]

That and snow leopard

[@kingjakewolf5348]

iOS6 and Mac os x mavericks was definitely peak apple os design

[@Creeper_ofDoom]

I wish this old Design was at least an option for future iDevices. this design was awesome and nostalgic

[@FastGuy1]

No, the screen was just too small

[@loganpajaro8490]

ahhh, good old iOS 6, the last iOS version from the skeuomorphic era. so cool to see an iphone 5 on ios 6! :D

[@nojusvai1962]

I just downgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS 6 tysm iClassic. Keep your content up :))

[@pearelectronics3083]

If only this worked on iOS 10, I have a multitude of iPhone 5 running that os

[@socheatpeng6115]

The same question here! If IOS10 works will be great

[@justin6581]

You can downgrade with a video called “dual booting iOS 6”

[@user_BarsikBarsikovish]

​@@justin6581it's not really downgrading, it's just having participated memory with 2 ios

[@ophtalmology]

That's not downgrading. You can only downgrade iphone 5 to ios 8.4.1, which isn't that bad actually, although much worse than 6.1.4.@@justin6581

[@user_BarsikBarsikovish]

​@@justin6581expect you can't jailbreak your iphone 5 on iOS 6, so yeah, it also downgrade

[@ItsJazJones]

Great video man! Speaking of, I just bought a iPhone 5 on IOS 6.1.6 with a new battery recently! Finally get to see what all the hype is about all these years later lol

[@balanedward9939]

man, that's so freaking cool! How much did you pay for it?

[@ItsJazJones]

@@balanedward9939 $129! I bought it from a site called Elite Obsolete Electronics! Edit: The guy running the shop online owns a lot of cool Apple tech. It’s definitely worth checking out!

[@leonderprofie123]

I bought a bundle of 25 iPhone 5’s. Sadly no iOS 6, however 2x iOS 7‘s.

[@half-qilin]

I bought a lot of 24 iPhone 5c’s, and 2 unrelated untested iPhone 5’s. 8 of the 5c’s worked (one needed a new battery, I harvested it from another in the lot) and were iCloud unlocked, obviously none on iOS 6, none on iOS 7, one on iOS 8 and two on iOS 9. The two iPhone 5’s I bought only knowing they were iCloud unlocked, one was a 8.1.3 that worked immediately (unrelated, both the iPhone 5c on 8 and this iPhone 5 have baseband issues likely due to the sidegrade). The other is on 9.3.1, had a liquid damaged screen, and I have dubbed it “the miracle motherboard” because of the sheer abuse it got in the past… and the fact that I accidentally shorted a resistor nearby the CPU while the phone was turned on. Somehow that iPhone 5 still works.

[@Nyexai667necuva]

@@leonderprofie123I randomly bought an iPhone 5 expected on ios 10 but it came with ios 7 and then I accidentally deleted the firmware off it…

[@oofcloof]

I have two iPhones 5’s on iOS 7.0, I’ll probably take one of them down to 6! Thanks for the tutorial

[@natazeze]

i have like 20 on ios 7.0

[@laccelo]

OK@@natazeze

[@VXkiller85]

How do you downgrade them to iOS 7? If not I genuinely want to buy one!

[@oofcloof]

@@VXkiller85 I didn’t downgrade them, I just bought them like that haha. It’s not too hard to find them on eBay. I don’t think I want to sell mine though, the lock buttons are broken on them

[@Mr.White1]

Looks 👌I’m keeping my 13pm on 15.7.

[@leonderprofie123]

I recommend you put „No Coolbooter/ Nightshade!“ or something like that in the title, so it gets more attention.

[@leodanye1208]

N1shade is good. why did they need do this tool bro?

[@bbofficialmusic]

It‘s tethered. Each time you boot up the iPhone, you need to re-do the whole process with nightshade.

[@tOSdude]

@@bbofficialmusicyou don’t need to redo the whole process, you only need to open legacy iOS kit on your computer with the phone plugged in and press “just boot”

[@32ps]

woah didn’t know that was possible

Can the iPhone 5 be downgraded to iOS 7 from 10.3.3?

[@realcartoongirl]

[@jayster3.0]

Can you also try to downgrade a iPhone 5s from iOS 12 to iOS 7, in celebration of iOS 7’s 10 year anniversary?

[@zpys]

I think that the lowest you can go on the 5s is 10.3.3.

[@jayster3.0]

@@zpys No. The iPhone 5s was made in 2013 alongside iOS 7. You can check on Wikipedia or Google for any fact checking on me.
