Hi,

I have an iphone 4s with ios 7.0.6 OTA update and i could not jailbreak it.
For ios 8.2 is not jailbreak available.

I want to restore it using itunes or using semi-restore and keep the ios 7.0.6 in order to be able to jailbreak it.
I there a method to obtain that?

Thank you,
Emi

Welcome to iPhoneForums, ioanbalau!

As you're thinking about jailbreaking your iPhone, I've moved your thread to the Hacking forum, where you will receive the right advice.

A restore will leave your iPhone 4s on iOS 8.2. There is no way to restore without updating to the current version of iOS. Since you can't jailbreak on iOS 7.0.6 because of the OTA update you might as well do the restore and wait for an iOS 8.2 jailbreak.

I just got the iphone and i dont know if is an OTA update.
I think is that because evasion 7 exits after the message: Modifying rootfs...
I can do something to avoid that?

Last hope
