Hi,
Does anybody have any experience in using this tools for imaging iDevices?
I am trying to image an iPhone 4 on 5.0.1 and as I begin to start the acquisition I get an error that the keys.plist cannot be opened.
Has anyone experienced this problem?

I recently attended a class where the instructor advised, if you image an i product you can damage the phone. The chips in the phone will recognize the imaging and this will disrupt the chips. I have not tried it nor will i try it now unless it's a 'throw down" phone. ? If you do image the phone and it works, post and advise

Could you elaborate? What calls was this - a forensic class? Is there any supporting documentation to this claim?
I and many others have used Lantern Lite with no problems.
To the original post…are you selecting the "Retrieve Keys" option when you get that message? Is there a pass-code on the device?
Appollogies for the long delay on the reply.
After troubleshooting and actually READING the README file correctly the problem lay with the version of redsn0w which I was actually using. After downloading the recommended version of redsn0w it worked like a charm.
I can say this piece of software coupled with Lantern is absolutely superb. We purchased Lantern around 6 months ago and it has assisted us greatly!
I personally have not found any problems in terms of damaging hardware?
I would be interested in seeing what documentation you have to support your claim also.

This is the first I have heard about this?
Which class were you on? Which imaging technique was the instructor referring to?
can lantern lite image older iDevices? prior to 3GS?
If imaging (reading) data "disrupt<sp> the chips", what is the purpose of data?

What? How would it "know" if it is jailbroken???
IT has been a while (2+ years), but I remember hearing "rumors" of damaging the iDevice when conducting a physical capture. But after personally processing well over 100 iDevices (primarily iPhones), I have never noticed any sort of damage done to the device.
And like I said, they were rumors with no documentation to be found.
