Let’s see how to crack your ios password:-

1. For the first step you have to plug you iPhone or computer into device firmware upgrade mode i.e. DFU mode:-

To enter DFU mode, simply power the device off, hold down the Home button (bottom center) and sleep button (upper corner) at the same time for 1a seconds, and continue holding down the Home button for another 1a seconds. The mobile device screen goes blank.

2. after putting your phone into DFU mode you need to Load the iDS Forensic Toolkit for this you need to insert your USB license dongle into your computer and running Tookit.cmd÷

3.After that the work is to do is to load the iDS Forensic Toolkit Ram disk onto the mobile device by selecting option 2 LDAD RAMDISK:– When you loaded the RAMDISK code it allows your computer to communicate with the mobile device and run the tools which are needed for cracking the password (among other things).

4. Now you need to select the iDS device type/model that is connected to your computer, as shown in Figure:-
