Stuck on "Ramdisk load started!"

iPhone 4 CDMA on 7.1.2, anyone know of a solution? I read the update log or whatever and it said iP4 CDMA support had been added, but it's not working. Thank you!

Same here...

Been trying to recover some photos off this 3GS for a few weeks.

I've tried almost everything except for using an old version of Windows and Java. Maybe try a Windows XP/Vista virtual machine with an older Java and see if that works?

Ramdisk load started!
MobileDevice event: DfuDisconnect, 1227, 2008930

This happens when I disconnect and reconnect the usb (notice that there is no connection event). I am using a jailbroken 5.1.1 iPad 1st gen.

Nani?
Why exploiting ssh_rd if you're jailbroken ?
Anyways, Try on another the USB port, else try on another laptop.

Unfortunately the iPad screen is broken so that's why I'm trying to ssh into it. Yeah probably has to do something with the iTunes version. Thanks regardless.

For me. after the ramdisk load starts, i get an error that "the device is not recognised" and then it stops

[Saransh-255]

ok , update. It gets stuck at "Ramdisk load started" now. I dont know if it is getting me anywhere near fixing it. Can anyone help?

[Saransh-255]

I reconnected it and it has recognised it but it just says: " Ignoring same device Iphone 4 (GSM)

in my case, after show "Ramdisk load started!" and
showed log on GUI:

Did anyone have any results or fixes for this in the end?

Hey there. I think maybe have a solution for you all. In mux_redux/itmd.c we log to the file /tmp/md.log. After the RecoveryConnect event, you can see the following in the logs

2023-05-21 14:00:32.000 java[54483:1ea03]: amai: AMAuthInstallPlatformCreateBufferFromNativeFilePath: open failed: No such file or directory

2023-05-21 14:00:32.000 java[54483:1ea03]: amai: AMAuthInstallPlatformCreateBufferFromNativeFilePath: open failed: No such file or directory
2023-05-21 14:00:32.000 java[54483:1ea03]: amai: AMAuthInstallPlatformCreateBufferFromNativeFilePath: /var/folders/sw/rjkzvfjx5gsdq42bpy8qzlrr0000gn/T/ssh_rd/ipsw_ipod11_7E18/BuildManifesto.plist

You may be able to see where this is going... For some reason the file BuildManifesto.plist is missing from the firmware folder in the ssh_rd temp directory. To solve this, you can extract BuildManifesto.plist from the IPSW file by copying it, renaming it to have the extension .zip and extracting BuildManifesto.plist from the top level of the IPSW. You can place it in the extracted firmware folder, in my case ssh_rd/ipsw_ipod11_7E18, that has the .dec, .orig and .p files. Note that you can find the temp directory that is logged at the beginning and throughout the logs in the Java GUI window.

If you did not already have that temporary directory created, you will have to boot your device into DFU mode, let the application run and get stuck, copy that file into the directory, and relaunch the Java program and put your device into DFU again.

Unfortunately I think in trying to get a custom SSH Ramdisk with dd working, I may have botched my filesystem which is really disappointing. But this should be able to get the SSH Ramdisk running on your device! Before I botched it, I was able to run mount.sh and other included commands.

Hey @FrederickGeek8, thanks a lot for discovering the missing piece and sharing your repo! 🥳 I have tried to run it on my old iPad but after following the instructions it failed on the 'Sending fake data' step with a SIGSEGV coming from irecv_control_transfer in jsyringeapi.jnilib.

Have you encountered something similar? I don't think you changed anything in the jsyringeapi.c that would cause this, so unfortunately for me, it might be device specific.
