20160211 Woah Apparently You Can Soft Brick An

Keith I Myers – 2016-02-11 18:25:09-0500 – Updated: 2016-02-11 18:25:09-0500Woah – apparently you can soft-brick an iPhone by simply setting the date to January 01, 1970. The only fix is to open the phone and pull the battery to allow the clock to reset.

DANGER, Do NOT Try this. New iOS 9 & iOS 8 Bug Completely Bricks Your iPhone, iPad or iPod. Restoring Won’t Fix This. The Details: http://blog.lfcameron7.xyz…

I might just have to try this. In several different ones. You know, to ensure that it is completely platform wide. Keith I Myers – 2016-02-11 18:35:43-0500+Master Decker – good point. Let me get dressed and take a trip down to the local Apple store Master Decker – 2016-02-11 18:45:05-0500+Keith I Myers I’d say to also try a few watches. I’ll do some up here, so that we can rule out the “bad batch” issue.

I do however plan to start with the top end systems, to see if it is just a flaw in their design. Kent Seaton – 2016-02-11 18:49:36-0500I would so love to do this in an apple store if I wasn’t banned for life.Master Decker – 2016-02-12 03:14:21-0500+Kent Seaton This would be one time….. That is have to leave Glass behind.
