Tyma posted:Hello thread! If you can check the serial number before you buy it, it's possible to decode the serial number and figure out the manufacturing date. Just cross reference that with the iOS version releases to be sure it came with 8.1.2. I did this last week but I wasn't buying through apple. They might have less old stock around so a reseller might be a better bet.

Can’t hurt to try. To answer your question, the point is that people by and large upgrade their idevices enough that most people are running on the last OS or two, so there’s not much need to support devices stuck on iOS 9.

Moose-Alini posted:I’ve wondered, if you restore an old iPad, will it let you download and restore the last compatible iOS? Like this stuff hasn’t been signed for years now. The last version of iOS the device supported will be signed for it until the end of Apple. (Or if you happen to get lucky maybe Apple will accidentally sign every version for every device again when nobody’s looking)

Because their private keys have never leaked. They likely never will. The best we’re likely to get is things like blob saving where you store a copy of the transaction between your phone and Apple, so that you can later reinstall the same OS version even if they’re not signing it. (Doesn’t necessarily work for newer iPhones) That’s pretty high level but is roughly correct.

Until someone publicly releases a new jailbreak it doesn’t seem likely.
