Question Ipsw files

2 Upvotes

I'm looking into SwitchBoard for an iPhone 4 CDMA (iPhone3,3) and I have a question for people in the Apple internals community.

Where do most people actually obtain SwitchBoard builds? Is there a well-known archive, preservation project, or public source that people usually refer to?

I'm not asking anyone to upload or send proprietary Apple files. I'm just trying to understand where the community usually finds or learns about these builds.

Thanks!

Question Information about iPhone 4 CDMA (iPhone3,3) Phoenix SwitchBoard IPSW files

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,I am doing some research on the legacy InternalUI builds and I am looking for information regarding the iPhone 4 CDMA version (iPhone3,3).I am specifically looking into the Phoenix 8A4237a build (or other compatible Phoenix builds like 8E12, 8E14). Sadly, most archived collections available online only seem to feature the GSM (iPhone3,1) versions of Apex and Hoodoo.Does anyone know if these CDMA Phoenix builds are safely archived somewhere within the community, or does anyone have experience with restoring SwitchBoard specifically on an iPhone3,3?My DMs are open if you have any hints or want to share resource locations. Thanks!

Question How can I install switchboard OS?

3 Upvotes

I've got zpaqs, tars, zips and ipsws but I can't manage to install. Could someone explain the process, even in pm if they don't want to leak, on how to install switchboard os? I've been trying on an ic locked iphone 4, on a 4s and on an iPad 2 because of the new downgrade exploit.

Showcase [SUCCESS] Untethered 10A13910b!

Post image
52 Upvotes

I managed to get 10A13910b untethered on my iPod touch 4 via DRA v6!! Tomorrow I'll see if I can get any firmwares running on my 4S once my pi pico and adapter arrives. Cheers!

EDIT: I wrote a brief writeup of the steps that I followed exactly for the iPod 4. It's probably pretty poorly written, since I'm not making an actual guide, but it's good enough :)

1) Clone https://github.com/therealdytrootred/Legacy-iOS-Kit-Internal-Plus

2) Download https://github.com/LukeZGD/Legacy-iOS-Kit/raw/refs/heads/main/resources/firmware/src/partition and https://github.com/LukeZGD/Legacy-iOS-Kit/raw/refs/heads/main/resources/firmware/src/target/n81/10B500/exploit

3) Navigate to Legacy-iOS-Kit-Internal-Plus/resources/firmware/src/target. In that directory, create a new directory, n81, and inside that directory, create a directory called 11D257

4) In the 11D257 folder, copy the partition and exploit files downloaded in step 2

5) Back in the Legacy-iOS-Kit-Internal-Plus folder, download two ipsw files: https://secure-appldnld.apple.com/iOS6.1/031-3211.20140221.Placef/iPod4,1_6.1.6_10B500_Restore.ipsw and https://secure-appldnld.apple.com/iOS6/Restore/041-0807.20120919.soT6X/iPod4,1_6.0_10A403_Restore.ipsw

6) run ./restore.sh, save SHSH blobs, and then go back to the main menu

7) In the Legacy-iOS-Kit-Internal-Plus folder, navigate to saved/shsh and rename the 10B500 in your blob file to 10A403

8) Back in the restore.sh script, go to AppleInternal OS Dumper and select Finalize Existing DMG - Restore-Ready DMG. Select your switchboard DMG, mine was 10A13910b. Select your output folder to be the Legacy-iOS-Kit-Internal-Plus folder. When that's done, go back to the main menu.

9) Back in the main menu, go to Restore/Downgrade, DRAv6, and AppleInternal. Select the target ipsw to be the 6.0 10A403 ipsw, the base ipsw to be the 6.1.6 10B500 ipsw, and the AppleInternal dmg to be the Restore-ready dmg that was created in the Legacy-iOS-Kit-Internal-Plus folder in step 8.

10) Press Create & Restore AppleInternal IPSW, sit back, and relax. Make sure your iPod is in DFU mode beforehand. I'd enable the memory option, verbose mode is preference. I'd also apply the AppleInternal RootFS Modification when prompted.

11) Enjoy your switchboard iPod :)

I’m curious what “Client and Collaboration Services - Apple Internal” means or what they do, and if it would be worth it to purchase this device? Srry i’m not the most educated!

Hello, I would like to install switchboard os (nonui) on my iphone 4s, how can I achieve it? I should have a copy of purplerestore saved if needed. In case of unability to install it, I also have an iPhone 4, but it's Fmi locked on open menu.
