This means the you can't restore anymore via iTunes/Finder/3utools below device.

Maybe possible for some more below devices. Let's see. Not confirmed yet.

- iPhone 4S (all firmwares)
- iPad 3rd Generation (GSM) (all firmwares)
- iPad 3rd Generation (CDMA) (all firmwares)

✍🏻 Tip: Take care of your older cellular models more. Some Wi-Fi models still have an old trick workaround to restore them, but for cellular models, it can be done, but that will break the baseband, and it will work as a Wi-Fi device only.

Goodbye to these old devices, more e-waste now, Apple. 🤦🏻
