Help/Support Forgotten pass code on Jailbroken Ipad Ios 9.0.1

wrenxz · March 5, 2019

Ipad mini 2 Jail broken on IOS 9.0.1 Pangu - Cydia/Ifilza/OpenSSH/Appsync installed.

I set a 4 digit pin the other day as I visited a relative and didn't want their children accessing my Ipad, unfortunately iv'e forgotten the 4 digit pass code, I have searched the forum for solutions but there are mixed results and information which is all over the place with random comments which i'm struggling to understand. So far I have managed to install " PuTTy & WinSCP " giving me full access the Ipad's file system as " IFunBox " would not allow me to access any files and secondly the computer has already been trusted.

I must advise all that I do not wish to restore the Ipad, I only want to remove the 4 digit pass code from the home screen, also I never enabled Siri as I have read on some sites that a method was found to unlock screen but this is not an option for me. All help and support will be greatly appreciated, Thank you

last time I read something about it, it was stored into the keychain. But I think that’s changed long time ago, back then you could delete keychain - reboot & done.

You could try on reddit/jailbreak...

I’ve had the same issue and I believe I installed a tweak via SSH to allow infinite passcode attempts to hopefully guess it eventually.

All passcode removal tweaks no longer work.

An alternative could be to reset your device via iCloud?

Thank you for your reply but I already mentioned in my post that I have no wish to restore the Ipad, I only need a tweak so I can remove/reset the 4 digit pin. You mentioned a tweak for unlimited attempts, were can I find this and how would I go about installing this. Thanks

There is a way, it works. My friends PI firm uses it. But it Cost a Lot!

Google “Elcomsoft iOS Forensic Toolkit” , saved my iDevices several times.

Apple option, but you are likely to loose your JB https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204306

oh yeah, all apple product password or passcode are always recorded in “keychain” if you can access your iPad root folders, should be in var some where. Delete that keychain file.
