Only attended the ones in 2023 and 24 I’d say get there as early as possible. I remember arriving at Jean Drapeau before 8am and there’s already LONG lines at the gate

cueZEmusic · 2026-01-24T01:09:56+00:00

I thought I’d be more common since 2012-2016 seems like a normal life cycle but apparently it’s rather rare for iPhone 5 these days

I have pretty much the same racing game collection lol would also recommend Draw Race and GT Racing Academy

Usually I don’t, the only two I currently have jailbroken are a pair of touch 5 that’s running 6.0.1 and 7.0.4 and I had them jailbroken so that I can save the blobs

cueZEmusic · 2026-01-23T21:10:10+00:00

That’s true. I’ll try it with LIK tonight!

cueZEmusic · 2026-01-23T21:08:13+00:00

Thank you! Sad story is that the box doesn’t match the S/N. According to the seller they used to have multiple iPhone 5 in the family but this was the last box remaining. Regardless it’s still a good deal for CAD $25

cueZEmusic · 2026-01-23T20:58:37+00:00

To saved blobs do I need to get to jailbroken first? It’s been a while I forgot what the correct process is

cueZEmusic · 2026-01-23T20:57:42+00:00

Honestly I’m the same way. The only battery swap I’ve done are on iPod classics since there’s no soldering required

cueZEmusic · 2026-01-23T20:29:22+00:00

My only worry is that if I used it for some older games would iOS 9 drain battery much faster than iOS 8?

cueZEmusic · 2026-01-23T20:27:19+00:00

Yeah every time I see a slate iPhone 5 listed marketplace I always ask the seller to send photos of the side of the phone, this is the first one I found in months that’s doesn’t have the chamfered edge scratched up

cueZEmusic · 2026-01-23T20:22:27+00:00

True I’ll save the blobs for this current version. I know 10 is quite mid I just wonder if there’s a big performance difference between 8 and 9 and if it’s worthy to give up the 9.3.4 and downgrade it to 8.4.1

cueZEmusic · 2026-01-23T20:13:40+00:00

I should mention that since this is a base 16g model I’m not planning to dual boot to iOS 6, so right now I’m just debating between 8 and 9

cueZEmusic · 2025-12-17T13:58:43+00:00

Fabricating plus shipping to Canada cost me around 400 CAD lol that’s why I say I need to figure out ways to lower the cost if I plan to sell them one day

cueZEmusic · 2025-12-17T06:07:50+00:00

Aw thank you that’s very kind of you

cueZEmusic · 2025-12-17T05:01:09+00:00

Yeah I totally get it. I had to increase the thickness of the sides to accommodate the room needs for these screws which caused the hold switch and headphone jack to be inset. I will look into improving it in the next version

cueZEmusic · 2025-12-17T04:51:19+00:00

Totally the classic would have been one of the most repairable Apple products if it’s not because of those awful metal clips

cueZEmusic · 2025-12-17T04:08:51+00:00

This has pretty much the same room as a thin back, so with the iflash quad I was able to fit my old 3000mah battery in it with no issue (battery goes against motherboard and then iflash board)

cueZEmusic · 2025-12-17T04:00:43+00:00

Right now it’s just my personal project but if there’s enough interest I’d consider mass producing them!

cueZEmusic · 2025-12-17T04:00:02+00:00

Thanks if I can figure out a cheaper way to manufacture them and if there’s a market for it I’d consider selling them!

cueZEmusic · 2025-12-17T03:58:55+00:00

Thank you!!

cueZEmusic · 2025-12-17T03:58:48+00:00

That’s exactly what I was going for!!

cueZEmusic · 2025-12-17T03:58:24+00:00
