iDevice Software / Boot Bricks
In my study Software bricks, e.g Updating the iOS or Restoring, and Boot,e.g iBoot, iBEC etc; If the iBEC is broken it wont go into Restore Mode, Even via DFU but using an aid like iREC and Steak4source its possible to get it booting into WTF then DFU then Restore Mode. This is a little thing i had found out. This is only for A-4 Devices and maybe under.
If restoring software / updating and your computer shuts down or cord disconnects from the pc whilst updating, this can have dramatic effects on the iBEC to the Software Installation depending on the stage its up to. The variability of having a broken iBEC can be useful if knowing how to use it.
I will continue on this later.
Please discuss
