Revision as of 07:29, 7 November 2009
IPSW (IPhone/ IPod Touch SoftWare) Files have the Magic Number 504B0304 (PK\003\004) and thus are ZIP Archives. They can be modified with typical zip/unzip tools (i.e. change extension to .zip and double click). An IPSW File is used to deliver the iPod Touch / iPhone firmware to the end-user.
Contents
IPSW Contents
root folder
- Restore Ramdisk
- Update Ramdisk (Firmware 1.0 didn't contain an Update Ramdisk as there is no official firmware to update from)
- Filesystem Ramdisk (the largest .dmg file)
- kernelcache.release.XXXXXXX file (application processor specific i.e S5L8900, S5L8920, S5L8720)
- BuildManifest.plist (first appeared in firmware 3.0, I guess)
- Restore.plist file
- \Firmware (Folder)
Firmware Folder
- \all_flash\all_flash.XXXXX.production (Folder - hardware specific i.e. M68ap, N82ap, N88ap, N45ap, N72ap)
- \dfu (Folder)
all_flash.XXXXX.production Folder
dfu Folder
- iBEC.XXXXX.DFU (hardware specific i.e. M68ap, N82ap, N88ap, N45ap, N72ap)
- iBSS.XXXXX.DFU (hardware specific i.e. M68ap, N82ap, N88ap, N45ap, N72ap)
- WTF.XXXXX.DFU (hardware specific i.e. M68ap, N82ap, N45ap, N72ap - currently not present in the iPhone 3GS (N88ap) firmware, because it is mostly used to patch issues with the DFU mode that was burned into the bootrom)
Example
This is a ls -alR of an extracted iPhone 3GS Firmware ipsw.
