hello everyone.
Here I’m looking to transform an iPhone to remove iOS and switch to Linux.
I’m looking to do this for a simple reason: two weeks ago I bought a second-hand iPhone 5, and unfortunately the seller and I had a fight,
so to get revenge he blocked the iPhone and it’s now completely dead.
but I checked the iPhone it’s in order not stolen, with proof of purchase,
but blocked so in my head I thought
well it’s useless then why not put it on Linux
I don’t care about no longer being able to use the GSM but for a technical challenge it would be more fun, right
so here I want to do an Ubuntu-phone or Kali-phone like the Raspberry Pi phone.
If there are ideas I’m open to them

    so don’t be defeatist right away
    i’m launching a technical challenge
    nothing more than asking the question
    not whether it’s possible but to find a way to format
    or to hack the terminal’s OS and then put something else there nothing says otherwise
    it turns on this thing so there will always be a way to hack this terminal
    when I say hack I don’t mean pirating ok
    the hack changes the functions of a device for example a kettle boils water but by hacking it you can cook eggs
    in principle I’m just looking to replace ios with something else
    a terminal or something where I can write something other than a password
    a command for example

    for info the iPhone was sold to me by a private individual
    with whom I had a dispute over the price I negotiated
    so to get revenge he blocked me 5 minutes after the transaction
    but it’s been more than 2 weeks and I’ve re-checked the phone it’s not stolen
    nor reported lost moreover to make an iPhone second-hand warranty work you have to file a complaint

    no, it’s this piece of crap that told me he blocked me with his message
    (you got me really lol)

    so I find myself having paid for a piece of metal and paper so if no one wants to run tests with me I’ll simply
    throw it away

        I understand you; I have myself rooted and flashed the ROM on my Android.
        I installed CyanogenMod there.

        It remains to know if others have ideas.

    Hi,

    The only OS you can put on an iPhone is iOS.

    A seller cannot block an iPhone unless it hasn’t been paid for.

    So go back to him and have him unlock it.

    I hope it isn’t a private individual because if it is, the invoice is fake, hence the block by the real owner.

    Another reason: the person sells their smartphone and then reports it stolen to collect the insurance money.
    A startup is followed by the remote lock.
