What is ideviceactivate FOR LINUX?

ideviceactivate

ideviceactivate is a handy little tool that helps you activate your iPhone and iPod Touch devices right from your GNU/Linux setup. Super convenient, right?

Getting Started with ideviceactivate

If you're not really into using the command line, you might want to wait for iDeviceActivator. It's designed to make things easier for users who prefer a more straightforward approach.

Who Made This Tool?

A big shoutout to p0sixninja for writing most of the code! The caching part and the documentation were put together by boxingsquirrel. Teamwork makes the dream work, right?

What You Need Before Getting Started

You'll need to grab some dependencies first. Since these can differ based on what Linux distribution you're using, I won't list them all here. But generally, you'll need development packages like:

• libimobiledevice


• libplist


• usbmuxd


• libgthread2


• librt


• gnutls


• libtasn1


• libxml2


• libglib2


• libcurl

Your Installation Steps!

Once you've got everything ready, here's how to set it up:

    git clone git://github.com/boxingsquirrel/ideviceactivate.git

    cd ideviceactivate

    make

    sudo make install

  

This will get everything installed and ready to go!

The Basic Commands You Need

If you're looking for a simple activation without any extras, just type:

    ideviceactivate

  

If you want to deactivate instead, use this command:

    ideviceactivate -x

  

If you're interested in working with caching options, here's how:

Create Cache and Activate Device:

    ideviceactivate -c < cache directory >

  

Create Activation Using Existing Cache:

    ideviceactivate -r < cache directory >

  

Tuning It with Flags!

The IMEI, IMSI, ICCID, and Serial Number can also be included in your command using flags like: -e, -s, -i, and -n respectively.
