A deep dive into the iOS backup/restore system

Domains.plist

Documentation of /System/Library/Backup/Domains.plist. File taken from iOS 16.4 iPhone SE 3. The file was removed in iOS 17.0

Values

Values in the plist. Other than SystemDomains, these are not really important and are just here for preservation sake.

A domain in domains.plist contains keys that determine what gets backed up for what types of devices and where (i.e. iCloud vs iTunes). Not all domains have each key. The only 2 keys that must be in every domain are RootPath and RelativePathsToBackupAndRestore. Some domains have the value ShouldDigest. I am not sure exactly what it means but I have included it for documentation purposes.

  • Version: "24.0"
  • SystemDomains: (Dictionary), see below

Installing android-tools in Fedora

How to properly install android-tools in Fedora

Currently, it seems as if Fedora doesn't install udev-rules, to get this working, I've had to manually install them from a community project. I'm not very knowledgable in Linux, these are just the steps I had to do to get things working that I'd like to document.

Install android-tools

Install android-tools from DNF.

sudo dnf install android-tools
