It is possible to spoof your ios to think it's on a higher version though success is totally dependent on why a higher version is needed. Don't try it unless your prepared for the issues that may arise.
It doesn't work on a nexus 7 (4.3) either plz help
I can t play !
We want tapjoy they have offers for everyone!
Just want to note (although this is incredibly late), that this person was talking out of their ***.
I have an iPod Touch 3rd gen jailbroken, iPhone 4S jailbroken, and a non-jailbroken iPhone 5S. The 3rd gen iPod Touch can't get any firmware beyond 5.1.1, even when jailbroke. It's basic knowledge that even with the jailbreak, you can't get any firmware higher on that device. Apple's software is custom-made for specific devices, and the jailbreak normally exploits some flaw in that software. In order to get a higher firmware, one would have to reverse engineer the entire piece of software. To date (as of this post), there has never been a single case of this.
Apple does this for many reasons. One is that the old hardware wouldn't support most of the new features, and it would bog down due to the increased hardware demands of the new software. Then we get into "If you want x feature(s), you must purchase our new hardware", aka - a profit scheme. Ultimately, it's pretty irrelevant since Apple sells current iPod Touch models for under $200, and they can run the new firmware.
But yes, this individual doesn't have a clue about what they have been spouting. After calling the other poster a liar, he was presented with images and a question of how one could possibly obtain a higher firmware version if that poster couldn't. His answer? "Oh, I dunno, I sold my device a while ago, durr durr".
I get it now! Thats why it doesnt work!
Apple purposely makes their latest versions of IOS incompatible with older versions, so Apps will no longer run on it and you will need to buy a new one. Get an Android, they are useful for a much longer time.
Growwle - My guess is 1050
