To get out of recovery mode, simply turn your device off and then turn back ON.

If you are on a Windows computer, you can not only use iTunes (as discussed above) to check ECID of your iOS device, there are other ways to find ECID. How to Check ECID of iPhone or iPad (Windows) In this guide, you’ll learn how to check your iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch ECID in both Windows and Mac operating systems and also with/without a computer. Which makes an ECID a prerequisite for saving SHSH blobs for your device. But if you have signatures (SHSH blob) saved for an older firmware for your device, Apple won’t be able to stop you from downgrading firmware even if they stop signing older firmware.Īll popular tools that you use to save SHSH blobs require you to enter a valid ECID number. Apple won’t let you downgrade your iPhone or iPad firmware. Because once the new firmware is out, Apple stops signing older firmware and without a signature for the older firmware, you cannot restore your iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch to that older firmware. If you want to secure your future jailbreak, it’s important to save these signatures before a new firmware comes out. When you restore your iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, the iTunes contact Apple servers and generate signatures for your device. This is why you cannot use SHSH Blobs from one device to restore or downgrade another device.

An ECID ensures that each SHSH blob (which is required to restore a firmware) remains exclusive to a specific device only.
