Help/Support Sideloadly - Verification Code Incorrect

Melrei · September 4, 2020

Hello, I have this problem when I try to install Unc0ver using Sideloadly. The code is stated as incorrect but that is the exact code I copied from the sms they sent to me. Can anyone guide me how to fix this problem? I really appreciate any help from you guys. Thank you in advance.

Code could be expired or incorrect. Or maybe sideloadly bug. Can you try typing manuall and not copy paste the code?

Yeah, I typed it manually on my laptop as the code was sent by SMS on my phone. I'm not sure if the code was expired or not but if it was expired then it only last less than 10 seconds which is kind of ridiculous, I think lol? Maybe it is a bug as I see someone comment about having the same issue as me.

Okay, so I tried this to my other phone and it's working? Yeah kinda weird though because the code that Apple sent to me this time was the one that will pop-up on your phone screen every time they ask for Apple ID permission. Maybe Sideloadly is not supporting the SMS type of code verification? Anyway hope this will help you guys for any bugs update or alike. Thanks again for your help! ^^

What is this "other" sfa code verification (other than sms, which is the only option I see) method you said worked when sms didn't? Was it an imessage on your phone because you were logged in to icloud?

I am having the same problem.

The sms sfa code i'm entering is most certainly correct and active (I used it to login to apple when they refused to send me a new code due to spamming attempts while wasting an hour+ failing to get a simple ipa sideloaded :().

There appears to be some issue with sideloadly and I would love to get this working! How did you do it?

I have also tried app-specific passwords and the non-anisette checkbox in sideloadly, but then it just gripes about not being able to find a team id. I suppose this is because there is no created team id on a free dev account until I log in and use xcode on a mac or hackintosh?

Anyhow, the sms code is always refused as invalid by sideloadly, even when I verified it was correct. I typed the numbers each time, no pasting.

Please let me know if you need any more info or have any more detail on the problem. Thanks for the awesome work on this in any case.

It's the other alternative if you have another Apple Device.

We'll look into the SMS verification code, but it is low priority given that not many people have said anything about this issue.

There does seem to be a way of creating a new Apple ID without 2FA if you use iTunes on your desktop I believe?
