Hello, i found an old iphone 7 in a car our family just purchased and was wondering if anyone could help me reset it as the original owner forgot the screen lock and icloud email attached to the phone. I tried jailbreaking it with both checkra1n and palera1n but both failed (checkra1n just rebooted into a jailed state and palera1n gets stuck on the pongoOS booting screen). I have access to a windows install with itunes and a linux install for checkra1n and palera1n. any help to bypass the screen lock or wipe the phone would be appreciated.
Got a tip for us?
