Well what have I been up too? Doesn't matter, here I am to tell you about my story.
So I made the amazing mistake of installing iOS 11 Beta on my only device, I'll admit that was my wrong doing. It was going fine.....until one day it just wouldn't unlock. I didn't care, I thought I could just use Apple's amazing proprietary software known as ITunes to work.....I never learn from my mistakes. Well I go to iTunes and use my 10.3.3 ipsw file to restore. Alright, I've done this before with no problema. "Extracting Software" takes fucking hours to complete, but that's alright. I just want my phone to work. So it extracts the software and........... it gets stuck in DFU mode.
No problem, I can just do that fucky button combination. Oh ok, it's still the same. I wonder what the problem is....
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ITUNES JUST DOESN'T DETECT IT ANYMOREEEEEEEE
That's fine. I'll just unplug it, at least it tells me it needs to be restored r-right? So I restore it again, OOOOOOO BUT THIS TIME IT'S STUCK ON A BLACK SCREEN I LOVE YOU STEVE JOBS
That's fine, I just had to put it in the restore process 2 other times.......
So it gets past "Waiting for iPhone" and it actually does something. Awesome. It gets half way done and...............................................
OH I FORGOT IT HAS TO CONTAQCT APPLE'S FUCKING NETWORK SERVICE TO SEE IF IT'S STILL BEING SIGNED YEAHHHHH
Me having Ugandan internet going out every 5 minutes doesn't help
and my computer says it has no internet connection dear god no
ERROR 53 UR GONNA HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN
I sit here looking at "Extracting Software" again. This has taken me sense 6am and it's 10am riight now. I have to go to work at 3:30 and I don't fucking need this. Itunes fucking STOP
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alright, it's doing it for the 7th time. Let's see how it goes. It is going pretty good so far. God have mercy please
Alright, it worked. It went through. Now the final challenge.
I made a backup on another computer, this is my only backup. If iTunes doesn't let me restore from this, i'm kinda fucked and iTunes is a piece of shit. Come on, please.
LETTTTTTTTS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Phone says Restore in Progress............
come on
Okay it's been 5 minutes and it's still estimating time...........
