Meta [Megathread] Flair Customization Quarantine 5.0
Most recent documentation change, on 28 April 2026: Dopamine supports 16.7.15
If you choose to use bot commands to set your flair:
Using !device is exactly like resetting your flair to a standard template. The oldest version must be at least 4 major versions behind iOS 26.0 — at newest, iOS/iPadOS 15.8.7, tvOS 15.6.0, or watchOS 8.8.2.
The !os command will grant versions at least 4 major versions behind iOS 26.0 — at newest, iOS/iPadOS 15.8.7, tvOS 15.6.0, or watchOS 8.8.2.
Please provide only ONE command per comment.
Please enter commands in the order they appear in the flair: device, jailbreak, iOS. You must set a device to set a jailbreak or iOS version.
Note: You will NOT be assigned a jailbreak after setting the iOS version unless you reset your flair.
Examples:
!device iPhone 2G!device ipad pro 12.9 1st gen!jailbreak kok3shi9!os 1.0

Megathread Activation Problem Megathread: 9900 IMEI (A5/A6), cellular iPad 3, A8/A9 iOS 8/9, and more
Due to recurring issues with activating cellular iPad 3 models, 9900 IMEI, and A8/A9(X) iOS 8-9 devices, we strongly advise saving activation tickets with Legacy iOS Kit. Continuation of the previous megathread.
To our knowledge, the issue on A5/A6 devices stems from baseband tickets being rejected for as of yet unknown reasons, which only seems to occur on cellular devices with an IMEI starting with 9900. Courtesy of staturnz and /u/LukeeGD, we believe the list of potentially 9900 IMEI devices is as follows:
- iPad mini 1st gen (CDMA - Verizon, Sprint) (iPad2,7 - A1455)
- iPad 3rd gen Wi-Fi + Cellular (CDMA - Verizon) (iPad3,2 - A1403)
- iPad 4th gen Wi-Fi + Cellular (CDMA - Sprint, International) (iPad3,6 - A1460)
- iPhone 4S (GSM/CDMA) (iPhone4,1 - A1387)
- iPhone 5 (CDMA - China) (iPhone5,2 - A1442)
- iPhone 5 (CDMA - Sprint, Verizon, KDDI Japan) (iPhone5,2 - A1429)
On approximately March 15, 2026, GSM iPad 3 (IMEI starting with 01) are also affected:
- iPad 3rd gen WiFi + Cellular (GSM - AT&T) (iPad3,3 - A1430)
Note that the key determining factor to having a 9900 IMEI is being a CDMA-capable device, rather than GSM-only, as explained by Wikipedia:
TIA also allocates IMEI codes, specifically destined for dual-technology phones, out of the RR=99 range
In addition, A8/A9(X) devices on iOS 8 and 9 also experience activation errors. Possibly affected devices include:
- iPhone 6/6+, 6S/6S+, SE1
- iPod touch 6
- iPad mini 4
- iPad Air 2
- iPad Pro 9.7/12.9 inch 1st gen
This is a thread for discussing activation issues and any new information about it. Subreddit-wide rules continue to apply, so please review the detailed hacktivation policy.
Apple has recently released a new batch of updates for legacy devices:
- iOS 12.5.8 released. checkra1n, Chimera, and TNSv2 confirmed working.
- iOS/iPadOS 15.8.6 released. Dopamine confirmed working.
- iOS/iPadOS 16.7.13 and iPadOS 18.7.4 released. palera1n confirmed working.
More importantly, this was provided in its release notes:
This update extends the certificate required by features such as iMessage, FaceTime, and device activation to continue working after January 2027.
The IPSW diff reveals new functions in /usr/libexec/trustd including _ApplePlatformBackportECCRootG1, _ApplePlatformBackportECCRootG1Hash, _ApplePlatformBackportRSARootG1, _ApplePlatformBackportRSARootG1Hash, and corresponding new certificates in .der format issued on 12 December 2024 19:20:34 and 19:21:32 UTC-5. It is speculated based on the release notes that failure to have these certificates may result in issues with on-device activation, and unclear whether PC-based activation will be impacted.

Discussion The iPhone 4s “rare iOS versions” are now mostly gone.
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.
