How to Downgrade iOS 7 Beta to iOS 6.1.4 on iPhone 5 or iOS 6.1.3 on iPhone 4/4S and iPod touch 5
Apple has announced the release of iOS 7 Beta for developer testing
at its ongoing annual Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) from 10 June
through 14 June in San Francisco. iOS users who have accidentally
upgraded their device to the latest iteration of Apple's software can
now downgrade it to an earlier stable release such as iOS 6.1.3 or iOS
6.1.4 in order to install custom jailbreak tweaks and apps.
NOTE: There are still no working jailbreak
tools for iOS 7 and moreover the beta versions are likely to carry
several untested bugs or broken features.
IBTimes UK brings
a step-by-step guide to help users restore their devices to stable
versions of iOS 6 via iTunes Backup and Restore function.
Pre-Requisites
- Download iOS 6.1.4 for iPhone 5
- Download iOS 6.1.3 for iPhone 4/4S and iPod Touch 5.
- Install latest version of iTunes on your PC or Mac.
- A lightning cable for iPhone 5 and iPod touch 5 or a 30-pin connector for iPhone 4/4S is required for this downgrade.
NOTE: It is not possible to downgrade the firmware
from iOS 7 to iOS 6.1.2 on iPhone 5, iPhone 4S and iPod touch 5.
However, iPhone 4 users can still downgrade to iOS 6.1.2 if they have
the required SHSH blobs and APTickets saved for 6.1.2 or lower firmware
version.
