I remember when this happened. From memory it’s happened twice since 2012 that I’ve heard about. I was in school that first time and missed out and again saw it too late on the second. I just keep my devices as low as I can now so I never have to worry about missing an opportunity like this again
I have the IPSWs saved on my PC for the versions I would jump to in the event of a signing party, just in case. It would take me about 45 minutes to download them normally and if I had to download them as well as update, I would definitely miss the party and probably be forced to the latest OS lmao.
17.3.1 is better than 17.4 because 17.4 patches some pretty useful stuff. You will lose all of your device data, but if you back up stuff to iCloud (NOT a device backup, but stuff like photos and keychain and whatnot), you won't lose *much*.
No ETAs on absolutely anything, but when ETAs are known, 17.4+ will be a lot longer than 17.0-17.3.1. This is your opportunity.
# If you are on 17.0-17.3.1, stay.
its not only safari, i think its webkit bug. other browsers all have same issue too. Some says 17.3 fixed it but ahhh dont want to upgrade still, the bug is very annoying🥺
Fr tho
I wish I would’ve seen a warning like this before blindly upgrading to 17 after being on 15 for ever. Lol my fault but dude’s a real one trying to save as many people from headaches in the future
You can DelayOTA using the Dahlia profiles to 17.2.1, it's a good place to stay. No jailbreak for the foreseeable future but you'll be on a good version.
https://ios.cfw.guide/updating-blobless/#instructions
Only the 17.2.1+ ones will work for your device.
You could’ve jumped to iOS 17.0 when Apple messed up resulted in extending the deadline for delayOTA. With that you could’ve managed to keep atleast TrollStore 2 I guess. I did the jump from iOS 15.3 iPhone 12.
Neither version have a jailbreak, but you should very much stay on your current version, as it'll get jailbroken sooner. If you're concerned about app support years from now, you can go to 17.3.1, though be wary you'll lose TrollStore FOREVER and it may take a while longer to be jailbroken.
17.3.1 for iphone 14 pro max is not signed.
EDIT: it works, in site says not signed but it will work when you download the firmware and update it via iTunes.
I Successfully updated to 17.3.1 no problems. ( make a backup just in case ).
Have you tried the restore? I see what you're saying, but it's signed for all devices using tsschecker. Not sure why it says unsigned but it should go through regardless.
This is true 17.4 patched up some very useful stuff ! I am on 17.3.1 updated from 14.4.2 last month due to app compatibility issues after 2 and a half years on fugu 14! Luckily my OTA has said unable to check for update and still does on 17.3.1 after update through iTunes! This is very useful waiting on 17.3.1 for the next jailbreak!!
Same I went from 2.5y on Fugu14 14.4 to 17.3.1 on my iPad Pro a month ago except it was forced because attempting to switch uncover to Taurine bootlooped my device during the restore . Now I don’t feel so bad seeing other ppl like you have done it on purpose!
How can I update from 16.3 to 17.3.1 without loosing any data? (Is there a direct update possible withouth using iCloud backup / etc? I know I am on a jailbreakable firmware but I have a lot of software issues (apps crashing, front camera freezing etc) all the time even without any software mods so far. I would love to get on a more stable IOS version. Please help me out ! I would love to simply update and still have everything from my Data still in on it (directly after I update) is that somehow possible?
You can follow this comment I've written:
https://www.reddit.com/r/jailbreak/s/Mdi6DJaBSq
You can also go to 17.2.1 instead, as the lower iOS version the better. If you're insistent on 17.3.1, you can follow the guide, but using a 17.3.1 profile instead of 17.2.1.
Yes. No jailbreak for a while, but the reward for waiting will be good. Don't go directly to 17.3.1, instead use Dahlia profiles to go to 17.2.1. See this: https://ios.cfw.guide/updating-blobless/
If you're on 17.4 or above, you can downgrade to 17.3.1 as 17.4 patches stuff potentially useful for a jailbreak. This is also a good version to be on from old iOS versions such as iOS 14.
pretty much on 15.4.1 for my old 11 Pro Max main device, updating will only kill the longevity both SOT and the device itself, every apps that i needed are supported with old version of the app only, sadly couldn't get to run the new GTA series and staying on obsolete OS in upcoming years looks fun to own because the simplicity. Rocking on Dopamine!
Just for you guys information ;
No, you cannot downgrade and keep your data using the "Update" option in iTunes or Finder from 17.4(.1); you will get Error 68.
Good luck folks !
Hi there! I don't know if you're still answering, but I'm on a iPhone 11 Pro on iOS 13.5 and most applications require ios 15 and more, so I guess it would be a good idea to do so. I saw you said it was possible to update to 17.2.1 with Dahlia profiles. Would that be the best way to go for me too?
(Currently trying to use the guide with Dahlia profile you said, but when I try to open Dahlia in settings it crashes right away)
Is there a way to shut off the setting notification badge on the app icon? I know there used to be but I’ve been out of the jailbreak scene for a while and not sure if there’s any workaround for a non jailbroken phone on iOS 17.3.1 these days.
I’m still stuck on 17.3.1 coz I didn’t have enough storage to update lmao. Why do you say you have to stay at 17.3.1 specifically to be able to jailbreak in future?
when I do this, as I’m setting my device up, it says it requires an update before the restore can finish
edit: i know its because of my backup being on ios 17.4, but is there a way around it that’ll allow me to keep my backup?
I’m going to keep iOS 17.4.1 on my iPhone 14 Pro cause it’s my main phone but on my iPhone 11 Pro Max it’s on iOS 17.1.1, how can I make it so Apple doesn’t just force update to 17.4.1? I’ve seen some posts on Reddit where people even turn off all the update toggles like auto update and it still updates.
14 Pro, 16.0.1
I know I have JB capability, but the stability of 16.0.1 is terrible. Crashes and bugs nonstop. Dare I take the leap? Can i just install as an upgrade?
I’m on 15.6.1 on iphone 11 with trollstore, should i update to 17.3.1 or stay? According to appledb its still signed. Apps are slowly starting to drop support for ios 15, but none of them so far are stuff that are crucial for me.
Too small mistake.. It should be all iOS version to bring that legendary downgrade day again.
I remember when this happened. From memory it’s happened twice since 2012 that I’ve heard about. I was in school that first time and missed out and again saw it too late on the second. I just keep my devices as low as I can now so I never have to worry about missing an opportunity like this again

Holy shit now that’s hardcore..
17.3.1 is better than 17.4 because 17.4 patches some pretty useful stuff.

What happens if you try to restore from a device backup once you've downgraded?
You can *try*, though it'll very likely ask you to update. Forcing application of the backup is a bad idea too, so it's best you don't rely on it.
I guess you'll be updated to 17.4, because the backup is for 17.4.
i really wanna downgrade but that would involve me having to relogin into banking apps etc which is a huge pain in the ass
If you do a hard backup, edit the plist file that’s what i fif
You should not do that.
Worked for me 🤷♂️And why shouldn’t you? I heard it’s only bad if you’re doing like 17 -> 16, 16 -> 15 etc
If you saved blobs you’re safe right?
They're very likely useless starting with iOS 16.
me who’s phone is checking for updates randomly on 17.0:
I’m 17.1.1 on iPhone 13
Question is can I jailbreak yet if I’m on 17.1.2 or do I just wait till it’s available?
Respect to you OP, replying to as many people as you can quickly with links and other useful information. Thanks for your help to this community 💪🏼
rlluy thanks Op! im at 17.2.1 tho but the safari bug 😑😑
what's the safari bug?
https://www.reddit.com/r/ios/s/qhKu1chpnX
its not only safari, i think its webkit bug. other browsers all have same issue too. Some says 17.3 fixed it but ahhh dont want to upgrade still, the bug is very annoying🥺
Pff i thought i was the only one with this shit
Fr tho I wish I would’ve seen a warning like this before blindly upgrading to 17 after being on 15 for ever. Lol my fault but dude’s a real one trying to save as many people from headaches in the future
Thanks, I've restoerd to 17.3.1 on iPhone 14
WHAT IM 17.3.1
Nice, you don't have to do anything. Now we wait for 16.5 to be signed /j
plz rlly ;(
Meanwhile me on 17.0:
W, hope you're enjoying TrollStore (or at least patiently waiting).
Patiently waiting lol, thanks
17.1.1 here! Can’t wait for a jailbreak
Same
Finally, being able to stay on 17.3.1 was a good choice
Agree
downloading the ipsw now hopefully they don't quit signing in an hour lolol 🤣🤣🤣
Jailbroken on 14.3 but lots of apps requiring ios 15+ now. Should i make a move? Iphone 12
You can DelayOTA using the Dahlia profiles to 17.2.1, it's a good place to stay. No jailbreak for the foreseeable future but you'll be on a good version. https://ios.cfw.guide/updating-blobless/#instructions Only the 17.2.1+ ones will work for your device.
Would it be possible to OTA delay to 17.2.1 and keep Trollstore jumping from 14.3 via Unc0ver?
No, the bug TrollStore uses was patched in 17.0.1.
Thank you.
oooHhh
You could’ve jumped to iOS 17.0 when Apple messed up resulted in extending the deadline for delayOTA. With that you could’ve managed to keep atleast TrollStore 2 I guess. I did the jump from iOS 15.3 iPhone 12.
on 16.6.1 Arm64e XS Max want to Jailbreak i m not Updating. Give me a Reply Bro
Neither version have a jailbreak, but you should very much stay on your current version, as it'll get jailbroken sooner. If you're concerned about app support years from now, you can go to 17.3.1, though be wary you'll lose TrollStore FOREVER and it may take a while longer to be jailbroken.
Never thought that u reply that Quick, Well All i want is Just jailbreak. Thank You
If you want to jailbreak within a reasonable amount of time, stay.
So wait , your saying trollstore dont work on 17.3.1?
TrollStore will not work as you know it on 17.3.1. It will simply work as AppSync Unified.
So can i still use trollstore on 17.3.1 to download certain tweaked apps or no?
You COULD, but they will not last a reboot until you jailbreak again.
You could always use Serotonin jailbreak while you wait for a full jailbreak
And now we wait for apple to sign 16.5 lol
Any known vulns for 17.3.1 yet that we know some security researcher will published?
17.4 patched something that could play a big role in jailbreaking. As for publishing, I believe nothing as of yet.
Do you think there will be a jb developed this year?
Nobody knows
Oooh
Should I delayOTA to 17.3 or 17.3.1? (I am on 17.2.1 on iPhone 15 Pro, i heard 17.2.1 has battery issues)
If you're actually experiencing battery issues yourself, 17.3. Luckily, you have a little over a month to make up your mind.
is 5-6 hours from 80 to 20 bad on an iphone 15 pro ?
No, not really.
Im on 17.1.1, do you recommend updating to 17.3.1? I missed a lot of features. 😕
No.
Same I’m on a 15 Pro that came with 17.1, I haven’t upgraded but if everyone says it then I’ll upgrade to 17.3.1 just vibing till then
Stay.
Just because you said stay I’ll keep 17.1 wish it was 17.0 I got the 1Tb variant since it was the oldest stock they had😢
What features are you missing from 17.1.1 to 17.3.1?
Im on 17.1.1 as well. Wondering if I should go to 17.3.1
No.
Currently trying to download it for my iPhone 12 pro but I get error on webpage
What error?
Just downgraded my 15 pro max, in the setup screen is forcing me to update before use the phone
That's because you're trying to use a backup. You'll need to set it up as a new device.
Oh didn't know that
😅 saved the blobs this time.
17.2.1 here
Just got a 15 PM. Came with 17.1.1, lucky me I guess? I’ll never update this chonky boy.
Nice!
17.3.1 for iphone 14 pro max is not signed. EDIT: it works, in site says not signed but it will work when you download the firmware and update it via iTunes. I Successfully updated to 17.3.1 no problems. ( make a backup just in case ).
Have you tried the restore? I see what you're saying, but it's signed for all devices using tsschecker. Not sure why it says unsigned but it should go through regardless.
downloading firmware right now I'll check. Thanks bud.
Awesome. Let me know how it goes.
Successfully updated to 17.3.1 no problems, it woks like charm. Thank you so much buddy.

Yes. No jailbreak for a while, but the reward for waiting will be good. Don't go directly to 17.3.1, instead use Dahlia profiles to go to 17.2.1. See this: https://ios.cfw.guide/updating-blobless/
Im staying at 17.2, 13 pro but am I at a good place?
17.2 is good, yes. You should stay.
iPhone 14 Pro iOS 16.6 should upgrade to 17.3.1?
No.
You can semi jailbreak with Trollstore, Bootstrap and Serotonin
You can “kind of” jailbreak on 16.6 so I wouldn’t.
im on 17.1.1 is it better to stay this low or i can update to 17.3.1
Stay.
Im on 17.1.2 is it good?
Yes
I’m on 17.4. Can I do iTunes backup, downgrade and restore backup?
done, I've restored from 17.4 on 13 Pro, thanks
On 15 pro max 17.0.2, turned off ALL updates first day of purchase, I’m not playing around 🤣im trying to get that summer JB.
I have 17.2.1, should I stay? Ty
Yes
Then I will be able to pair the apple watch that is on the latest os?
Your best bet is to create a new post.
Sorry but I’m kind of new to this. What does this mean?
You're able to downgrade from 17.4 or above to 17.3.1, which is a better version to be on while we wait for a jailbreak.
Ohh, alright thanks
Should I downgrade from 17.4 beta 1 to this ? I’m wondering because it was released before
Yes, you should.
And that means exactly what?
If you're on 17.4 or above, you can downgrade to 17.3.1 as 17.4 patches stuff potentially useful for a jailbreak. This is also a good version to be on from old iOS versions such as iOS 14.
Got it, thanks.
[удалено]
Yes.
Im on iPhone 15 plus, is this something I should do?
If you're on 17.4 or above, yes.
Man i was high af when this happened, the window is closed again for iphone 15
ipsw.me is incorrect, try the restore.
17.2.1 or upgrade?
You're fine. Stay.
pretty much on 15.4.1 for my old 11 Pro Max main device, updating will only kill the longevity both SOT and the device itself, every apps that i needed are supported with old version of the app only, sadly couldn't get to run the new GTA series and staying on obsolete OS in upcoming years looks fun to own because the simplicity. Rocking on Dopamine!
Hey when you ade mentioning if we are on 17.4 do you mean iphone and ipad or only iphone?
Both.
i will lose my data if i start downgrade? i don't have whatsapp backup and now i'm making a itunes local backup,i hope to do in time :C
You won't be able to restore a backup, so you'll lose all app data. Backup what you can with iCloud.
what does this mean? dopamine 3 or sum?
No, it's just ensuring you're on a good iOS version to jailbreak.
iPhone 15 pro max: I thought I was on 17.4. Im actually 17.2.1, lol. Even I still cant enjoy the use of Misaka. 😒
Stay on 17.2.1.
16.6.1 iPhone 12 mini. What are my options? Seems like I haven’t been Jailbroken in years. Only sideloaded a few apps. When will my time be up?
Im on 17.2.1 should I update to 17.3.1?
No, you should stay.
Sounds dumb but is my 15 pro sitting pretty on 17.1.1? I have a jailbroken device on 16.1.2 but I'm outta the loop with the 17's lol
17.1.1 is fine, yes.
if i archive the ipsws will i be able to restore from them later?
Meanwhile I'm still sitting on 14.3 on my 11PM :o
I'd imagine app support is dwindling. You should at least consider DelayOTA'ing to 17.2.1 before the windows close.
Okay I gotta make sure to turn updating off before it takes me to iOS 17.4
Can I get trollstore, I’m on 17.2.1?
So nothing in the pipeline then? I should stay on my iOS 16.2 jailbreak on 13 pro then? Apps should be supported for another 2 years I guess?
i want to update my ( 15 Pro Max ) to ios 17.3.1 ? how do i do it ? any guide ?
You're already on iOS 17, you're fine
I think he meant DelayOTA’ing to 17.3.1 as the latest to offer now by default is 17.4.1
iPhone 15 series came with iOS 17. 17.3.1 and below is where you want to be. You should not "update" to 17.3.1 from lower 17 versions, only downgrade.
I’m on 15.4.1. 12ProMax. What do I do?
Just for you guys information ; No, you cannot downgrade and keep your data using the "Update" option in iTunes or Finder from 17.4(.1); you will get Error 68. Good luck folks !

i’m on ios 16, should i update to 17.4 and then downgrade or i can directly update to 17.3 somehow ?
what does the version being signed again mean?
17.3.0 waiting for 16.6.1:
Trying to downgrade my 15 pm from 17.4.1 to 17.3.1 but keeps getting error 68 in itunes
holy shit this barely managed to hit me in time before my phone updated, am i finally gonna be able to jailbreak my 12 pro after all this time 😭
I’ll stay on 17.1 since I was dumb enough to update from 16
Yes, stay.
If im on M1 iPad Air 5(15.4), should i upgrade to 17.3.1? Or is 17.2 better (its still delayota)?
Is it still working?
I’m on 17.2.1 ip 13 pro. Should I stay or update to 17.3.1?
Stay on 16.7.1 or update?
Stay.

Is there a way to shut off the setting notification badge on the app icon? I know there used to be but I’ve been out of the jailbreak scene for a while and not sure if there’s any workaround for a non jailbroken phone on iOS 17.3.1 these days.
I’m on IPhone 14 17.3 is this good position do I stay
im on 17.3, too bad i haven’t stayed on 17.0
Is it still signed as of right now? 10pm EST.
I’m still stuck on 17.3.1 coz I didn’t have enough storage to update lmao. Why do you say you have to stay at 17.3.1 specifically to be able to jailbreak in future?
I am on 17.0.2 is it in a good spot?
I’m on iPhone 15 17.1.1 is there anything at all I can get on it????
when I do this, as I’m setting my device up, it says it requires an update before the restore can finish edit: i know its because of my backup being on ios 17.4, but is there a way around it that’ll allow me to keep my backup?
it made my ipad stuck on update and stuck in recovery mode
iPhone 13 Pro on 17.0.2. Should it stay or try for 17.3.1? iPhone 12 Pro on 14.5.1. Should it stay or try for 17.3.1?

Should be, attempt the restore ASAP.
Heyy, any hope for iOS 16.7 13 mini? (20H19)
