'''VFDecrypt Keys''' are the keys which can decrypt the files that come with the [[firmware]]. Apple uses a public-private key encryption to ensure the safety of their files. Over time Apple has changed the way to encrypt firmware files, thus the way to decrypt files as well as the way to get the VFDecrypt Keys has also.
 
 
[[S5L File Formats#IMG2|IMG2]] was the file format used prior to iOS 2.0. For iOS 1.1.x, IMG2 files were encrypted with Key 0x837.
 
 
[[IMG3 File Format|IMG3]] encrypted files contain encrypted versions of the VFDecrypt Keys as part of the [[KBAG]] (key bag). These can be decrypted with the [[GID-key]]. For jailbroken iDevices the VFDecrypt keys can be retrieved with the devices [[AES Keys|hardware AES engine]]. The VFDecrypt key for the root filesystem image of an iDevice (~500 MB to 800MB in the case of iOS 5) requires either a decrypted [[Restore Ramdisk]] or [[Update Ramdisk]]. Once you have a decrypted Restore or Update Ramdisk, [[GenPass]] or [[iKeyHelper]] can be used to gather the keys for the root filesystem.
 
For the root filesystem there is one key per device model, with no IV. You can mount this once it has been decrypted using your program of choice. (For example, 7-zip on Windows (after extracting the DMG on Windows, extract the biggest file with {{wp|7-Zip}})
 
 
== Notes ==
 
The Update Ramdisk and Restore Ramdisks share the same IV and key per type of Application Processor. The current models are:

You can use [[img3decrypt]][http://code.google.com/p/img3decrypt/] or [[xpwntool]][http://github.com/planetbeing/xpwn/tree/master] to decrypt these as described in [[Ramdisk Decryption]]. Once done, mount or extract using the tool of your choice.
 
 
When posting a key page, please use the [[Template:Keys|key template]] ('''IN THE CORRECT ORDER''') and do '''NOT''' {{wp|WP:SUBST|substitute}} it.
 
 
For the VFDecrypt Keys of each firmware please check the builds listed at the appropiate firmware version page.
 
 
== Firmware versions ==
 
{{main|Firmware|Beta Firmware}}
 
 
== Gaps ==
 
As you will notice, there may be a gap or two, or a key for a current build that is not there. Please feel free to add them, but please be sure that it is only the key for a User or Developer build, as if you gave the key for another type of build that might or may not be out there '''people could get in trouble, and we do not want that'''. Thanks for contributing!
