During my college days, I had a 6s, 3D touch really surprised me when I went to multi-tasking by pressing the edge of screen first time. Entirely incredible.
my family had one of these since 2016. it went from my mom, to my sis, now me. it's been 7 years since we've been using this beast, and to this day, i ain't leaving this beauty.
Probably there’s something now right again on apples servers. I had a problem on 3 iPhones and Macs that they ask for the Apple-ID verification. Then they wanted the password/code from an other of my devices. I typed the correct in and it only says „there’s an unknown error. Do you want to reset all encrypted data?“ And now it finally works without showing that error. Now it’s a good week start
I used (and filmed CZcams videos) with an iPhone 6s all the way up until I would say about a month ago, so I used it all the way until February 2023. It was a great phone I got plenty of use out of, including doing my own screen, and the battery replacement over the summer of 2022. Battery was from I fix it, and replacement screen came off of an old iCloud locked 6S that was 20 bucks off of eBay. (Steal imo for the parts) I have now upgraded to the iPhone SE third generation, because it still has a home button, and it has the same exact form factor and button layout as my old 6S. Hoping it will serve me just as well as my old 6S dead.
@@SOTP. The Apple Watch Series 1 was released on September 16, 2016 along side the Apple Watch Series 2 with WatchOS 3 and iPhone 7 lineup with iOS 10, not in 2015.
The old versions of iOS dont work with the new secuity Apple has so I couldnt sign in on an older ipod touch until an apple service member told me about the password+secuity code thing. Apple is crazy. Sucks the old phones wont activate anymore its why I collect ipods now.
a few months ago i bought an ios 9 6s and reset it because i completely forgot it wouldnt activate and it actually activated fully!! it also works on wifi too!! do you know what exact version of ios 9 your two are running? mine is ios 9.1
airplane mode is why it wont activate it needs to call the server to activate. try maybe turning on the phone only and not connect to the internet so i think it is high time you burn a phone and try flashing to new ios to see if it will activate.
maybe activation works under iTunes since you can do that. If you choose to connect to iTunes instead of connecting to a Wi-Fi it'll activate using iTunes and that may be the key.
Bro I remember having an iPhone 6s on iOS 9, however when I found my iPhone 6s it automatically updated to iOS 15 on me, I was so disappointed I could never use iOS 9 again, however my uncle is giving me 3 old phones (yes the 3 phones I’m getting are iPhones)
I have a rose gold 6s on 9.3.3, when I got it it was at the hello screen and showed the activation error, but than I pressed try again 2 times and by a miracle it freaking activated. It’s carrier locked so I think that’s why it did that. I’m lucky to have that since I caught it on eBay on time, it was only 54$ and even came with the box. The seller had no idea how rare it was lol.
That‘s really cool! I bought an iPhone 6s gold on iOS 9.3.2 on EBay one year ago. It was on the Setup screen and not activated. I think there was also an error one time but then it perfectly activated!!! The thing is, it’s carrier unlocked…so I think that could not be the reason…
I just bought 2 brand new sealed packaging old stock 32GB iphone 6s rose gold for around $60 each. Not sure what I should do with them or if I should open them up.
Weird issue, my iPhone XS Max on iOS 14 bugged out and suddenly REFUSED to accept my 100% correct pascode.. I lost everything that day, still have sleepless nights about it, but ow well.
I got an iphone 5 on ios 9.3.1 a week ago. but today I realized that it was not on the right date. when I wanted to correct this, I noticed that it automatically went from 2011 to 2015 then 2026 then 2038 then 2001.. when I restarted it, I was faced with a screen displaying “activation impossible”
How did you restore the phone and keep the same software version? The password on my iPhone 6 on iOS 9.2.1 quit working as well and I don't wanna lose iOS 9
I think it’s because Apple used to deliberately slow down old devices on ios9 and after they lost the court case they tend to make it difficult to activate devices on ios9. I wonder what specific version do you have on your iPhone. They say it’s 9.0-9.2.1 on the 6S series that can’t activate.

Off topic, but I just had a video idea for you. You should try to find an Apple Watch Series 0 on watchOS 1 and pair it with an iPhone 6 on iOS 8
Or a series 1 on watchos2 for the 6s

It's insane, and fun, to think that its possible that with the iphone 3gs's (for the time) long life span, someone went from the 3gs to the 6.
maybe Apple is starting to fix the issue!

How were you able to restore the Iphone with iTunes to iOS 9 when you forgot the passcode? Is iOS 9 signed or smth?
Yeah fr
You can just erase the iPhone using the Find My app on another device logged into the same iCloud account.
Shsh blobs
won't work on 64-bit devices if i know correctly
6s was probably the best and old phone
I got an iPhone 6S in rose gold on ebay for 75$ as my backup phone. We'll see how it goes
I still use one this phone .I’m getting an iPhone se2 and the 6s has served me well
Yo GO!!!! 🎉🥳
While watching this video i tried activating my iPhone 6s on iOS 9.3 and it activated! Your video bring luck!
That is great
Bro went out and bought another 6s plus 😂 I don’t believe it miraculously activated
How did you restore that 6s without updating? Does the Find My erase function work on that old of a device?

Same passcode issue happened on my iPhone SE1 on iOS 13

@@tabbycat406so basically you shouldnt put a passcode on an ios 9 6s if im understanding?
Still usable phone. I have one, its great.
CONGRATS🎉🎉🎉🎉
what specific version of ios 9 is the working phone on
My 4s after reset sometimes wont activate.
I'ma get me a 6s, it would be a W replacement for my old 7 that finally broke a few weeks ago.
Hmm I remember that my 4s on ios 9 activated last month (idk if the 4s is an exception)
Only the 6S and the SE 1st gen are affected by the activation issues
try using a sim card that works with data.
When beauty meets beast ❤️🔥

You downgraded it or u keep it on iOS 9 in 2015 ?
He didint downgrade, it just never got updated.

Maybe 3utools activator tool?
You’re around the same year that I’m in using an iPhone 5 like iOS 10 is the latest because of you I’m going to buy an iPod mini

I activated my iphone 5s on ios 9 at first I would not activate but when I plugged it in it activated through iTunes or 3utools
ok
what a clickbait video! thank
Epic moment
Impossible!! 😮
My iPhone 6s on iOS 9 activated just fine… it is locked to Verizon so I think that might be why it activated.
Restart the set up process. It will probably activate.

Is there any way to downgrade 6s to ios 10
Jailbreak
not yet, but theres one that might come out

Or what creeper said

im still useing an iphone 6s today cuz my parents are poor
It’s really dam🥰
AYY, you're a Michigan fan! (pin me?)
I think it activated on iOS 9 cause it’s the iPhone 6s Plus I’m keeping my eyes out for a iPhone 6s and se on iOS 9
the issue is with the a9 chip in general, 6s, 6s plus and se.
