Hi,

I got curious when I read this and tried myself on a fairly recent
11-STABLE amd64 system.

I can report that I successfully have accessed an iPhone 5SE and is able
to transfer images from it. This was done with fusefs-ifuse and
libimobiledevice.

idevicepair pair (with screen unlocked)
kldload fuse
ifuse -d -u <40 digit id> /mnt

Don't know what is different with your system though, but at least there
is proof that it *can* work.

Cheers,
