In the update articles, especially basic ones such as upgrading to iOS 7 - iOS 8 - iOS 9, we always mention that if your device has a jailbreak, you should download an iOS version called “IPSW file” and restore the device. We repeat the matter as a final solution to system problems to learn whether the problem you are facing is the hardware or the system. But how do we get the IPSW version of iOS suitable for our device?

To download a new copy of "Restore" on your "iPhone, iPad or iPod touch" you must use the appropriate iOS version for the device via iTunes, but for example, if you are a person who owns an iPhone 6, you will find Apple telling you that there is an iOS version for GSM for North America, another for China, a third for Verizon, and a fourth global, so which one is my device? All the previous version is one device and the difference is only in support of mobile networks, meaning there is no feature or application to differentiate. The solution is the model or version which you can find out from the following:
1
Look at the numbers mentioned on the back of your device and you will find the written Model This is the version of your phone "It is found in all iPhones until the first version."

2
Visit the iPhone Islam website from the PC and select "System files" from the top:

You will find a list showing the versions of the iPhone as follows:

You will also find different versions of Apple's systems, so search for the version of your device, let it be the model A1457, i.e. the iPhone 5s, the CDMA + GSM version, you will find in front of it that it is the iPhone 6,2 version, so in the list of operating versions, search for iOS 9.2.1, for example, which appears in front of it as for iPhone 6,2 , XNUMX

Find out about the version from the Apple website
Apple also specializes in the ability to identify the model and its features in detail by visiting this page For iPhone Or this page For iPad This page is for devices IPod:

The versions on the iPad are more simple. There is a special version for Wi-Fi, another for networks, and a third Chinese version. It is easy to distinguish between the Wi-Fi version and networks from the black bar on the top of the back of the device, thus carrying the appropriate version for your device easily. "The Chinese version is sold in China only."

Important Notes:
1
Since the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus and the latest “and the iPhone 7 and 8 is expected and so on”, Apple ended the problem of multiple versions of the iPhone due to the different mobile networks, as it provided an advanced communications chip that works in all countries of the world and thus there is only one version of the system without dispersion. That is, if you are using any of these devices, all you have to do is download the copy of your device only.

2
The iPod Touch has a unified version, as there are no 3G and Wi-Fi versions, that is, if you have an iPod 5, there is only one copy for the operating system regardless of the difference in the model number.
