Preparing for iOS 9.3.2 Jailbreak Release? Downgrade First from iOS 10 Plus Other Important Things To Do [VIDEO]

Following reports that the Chinese hacking team Pangu has successfully run Cydia on iOS 10, rumors surfaced that work on iOS 9.3.2 jailbreak is complete and the release date will happen in early July. The JB tool touching down soon prompted jailbreak fans to begin preparation.

For most iPhone and iPad users planning to install the latest from Pangu, the next thing to do is simply wait out for the iOS 9.3.2 jailbreak public release. Or they can opt to finally install the official iOS 9.3.2 version from Apple, which Forbes said in a report applies to jailbreak fans who decided to skip the OS for fear of not getting the next jailbreak to become available.

If the Pangu indication that JB 9.3.2 will indeed come out in the next few days, now is the time to upgrade, Forbes said, as it is hundred percent sure that what Pangu will release will work on all iOS devices running 9.3.2.

And there are the adventurous who tried out the new feel of iOS 10. As generally known in the jailbreak community, running an iOS version that is step ahead of the jailbreak will mean a lock out. Pangu's iOS 93.2 jailbreak will surely not install on iPhones and iPads on iOS 10 test drive.

What users can do dealing with such problem is to downgrade iOS 10, which according to 9to5Mac is quite easy but entails some amount of work. Users have the option to "clean restore" or wide out a device and start from scratch. Or they can simply update, which provides too the convenience of retaining much of users' data.

For both routes, the process includes backing up, downloading iOS 9.3.2 IPSW file and hooking up to a computer (Windows or Mac will do). Installation will need to be performed using iTunes.

Users need to take note though that there are key issues concerning backups. For one, there is no possibility of return to iOS 10 (in case the need arises) once the downgrade has been completed even if a backup of iOS 10 installation exists and specifically on iCloud. "Backups created on iOS 10 cannot be applied to lesser versions of iOS," 9to5Mac said.

But for jailbreaks bent on having a taste of iOS 9.3.2 jailbreak immediately following on release date, this should be a non-issue. The clear goal is to get rid of iOS 10 and the clip below, also coming from 9to5Mac, should prove handy:
