Apple released its latest iOS 16.5 update recently with a boatload of new additions. Today, the company has stopped signing iOS 16.4.1 which means you can no longer downgrade from the latest iOS 16.5 update. Apple usually stops signing its older software updates a week or two after the new version is released, potentially due to keeping users from downgrading to the previous version. Normally, users are not inclined to downgrade to the previous build since the newer versions bring important security updates and bug fixes. Scroll down to read more details on the matter.
You can no longer downgrade from iOS 16.5 to iOS 16.4.1 as Apple has stopped signing the build
As mentioned earlier, users would prefer to stick to the latest build as it brings new features and bug fixes for a stable user experience. With the release of iOS 16.5, Apple brought a bug that disallowed users to use the Lightning to USB 3 camera adapter the way it should be used. Some users have reported that the latest update broke the functionality due to which they can not use the dongle for charging while the accessory is connected to the iPhone. Since Apple has stopped signing iOS 16.4.1, you now do not have the option to downgrade from iOS 16.5.
We have previously reported that individuals who use Apple's Lightning o USB 3 Camera Adapter should not install the latest iOS 16.5 update. Additionally, users who have updated to the latest firmware can downgrade to the previous version if the accessory is not working as intended. If you have not downgraded to the previous version, you no longer have the option to do so since the company has stopped signing iOS 16.4.1. If you want to use the accessory, you will have to wait for Apple's iOS 16.6 update which is currently in the beta phase and will be released in tech coming weeks.
Apart from this, users interested in jailbreaking their iPhones should not be worried about the iOS signing. This is because, currently there is no jailbreak tool available for iOS 16 that works on the latest iPhone models. However, you can still jailbreak your older iPhone X and iPhone 8 series due to the hardware nature of the exploit. Since the vulnerability exists in the hardware, Apple can not patch it via a software update. Users who have updated to the latest firmware should wait for Apple to release iOS 16.6 which will potentially fix the Lightning to USB 3 adapter issue. Other than this, users are also reporting poor battery life after the latest update.
This is all there is to it, folks. Have you updated to the latest iOS 16.5 build? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
