Info / Instructions

  • you need a mac or linux box to use it / build it
  • libusb > 1.0.8 required
  • execute it with root privileges (sudo ./bdu)
  • by default compatible only with A4 devices: (iPhone 4, iPod 4G, iPad, AppleTV 2)

It's possible to extend the compatibility to older devices as well (iPhone 3GS, iPod 3G) by changing:

  • the offset to the call of usb_wait_for_image in payload.S
0x7ef @ A4 devices: iPad 1, iPhone 4 (GSM+CDMA), Apple TV 2G, iPod touch 4G
0x8b7 @ iPod touch 3G
0x8b7 @ iPhone 3GS new bootrom
0x8b7 @ iPhone 3GS old bootrom
0x8b7 @ iPod touch 2G new bootrom (0x30F1 according to other sources)
0x8b7 @ iPod touch 2G old bootrom (0x30E9 according to other sources)
  • exploit offsets in bdu.c
// A4:
#define EXPLOIT_LR 0x8403BF9C
#define LOADADDR_SIZE 0x2C000
// iPod touch 2G:
#define EXPLOIT_LR 0x22000000
#define LOADADDR_SIZE 0x24000
// iPod touch 3G:
#define EXPLOIT_LR 0x84033F98
#define LOADADDR_SIZE 0x24000
// iPhone 3GS new bootrom:
#define EXPLOIT_LR 0x84033FA4
#define LOADADDR_SIZE 0x24000
