Hi, I've got a sealed and unactivated iPhone 6S+ that I snagged in a phone lot on eBay. When I got it, it was stuck in recovery mode on iOS 9. My phone collector friend advised that I should replace the battery as it wasn't holding a charge anyways. After doing that it is still stuck in recovery mode. Any suggestions on what I should do? Should I leave it? Is there any way to save blobs from it in recovery mode? Can I update to iOS 10 somehow?

Boot into a SSH ramdisk with legacy iOS kit and save blobs, restore to iOS 15, then use turdus merula to go back to iOS 9 with the blobs you saved previously

Is there a tutorial I can follow to do that? Isn’t turdus merula tethered? How can I go about activating iOS 9?

It’s not tethered if you save the blobs during iOS 9

Makes sense, it works even in recovery mode though?

not with legacyioskit, I tried with recboot but that app is so dated
