Is it possible to make a backup for a disabled IPhone X?
Hi! A couple of days ago I disabled my iPhone X (it says Disabled: connect to iTunes) because I forgot the passcode and didn't count the number of attempts. Unfortunately, I didn't make a backup of it, so I can't just delete everything and restore it from the backup. I remembered the passcode but I'm out of attempts to enter it. Is there any way to use libimobiledevice to make a backup or even enable the phone again considering that I do know the passcode now? My main problem is that I can't unlock the device and choose to trust my laptop. Or is it possible to turn on and trigger icloud backup?
I don't know about an iCloud solution, but it is reasonable to consider you can somehow unlock it through there.
libimobiledevice
, as any other usb client, cannot "speed up" the cooldown counter or provide another interface to unlock the device during this time - if it could, that would have been a vulnerability.
