Was icloudpd ever working for you or you are trying for the first time?

There are posts about icloudpd failing in mainland China for some and there are posts suggesting icloudpd working in mainland China for others. Until somebody debugs iCloud calls from that location, I have no idea how we can resolve the issue.

Hi @AndreyNikiforov, thank you for your reply. I am just trying this project for the first time.

I do have read those threads but still a little bit curious about this one since it seems like the 2FA request is sent correctly.

I will try to debug it from my location here in China when I got time and see if there is any clue.

Well I think this docker file's fix explains everything -
