[QUOTE="Cr00zng, post: 1860412, member: 318059"] This is the first time, that I've done a restore operation on the iPhone. It's been an interesting experience to say the least... As usual, I did a root cause analysis for this issues. It isn't as much to know what exactly went wrong, it's more of a how to prevent during the next update the same issue rearing its head again. [LIST] [*][B]Root cause:[/B] iMazing. The software does have routine to present error messages, but does not have a process to roll back the image. As such, the iPhone could not be started, pretty much DOA. [*][B]Remediation:[/B] iTunes on MackBook Pro. This software had no issues with installing iOS 13.6.1 version on the iPhone 8 Plus. [*][B]Prevention of the same issue:[/B] Do not use iMazing for software update. [/LIST] While it is possible, that Apple's security clave does not allow iMazing access to some area; nonetheless, iMazing should be aware of this and prevent update in that case. Interestingly, this is the "help" that I have received from iMazing, quote: I tend to disagree and replied as such, quote: Maybe it is just my system and the latest version of iMazing software. In either case, the update routine should check for conditions and prevent updating, instead of rendering the iOS unbootable. [/QUOTE]
