After weeks of anticipation, iH8sn0w has announced iFaith, the SHSH dumper. iFaith will allow users to dump the SHSH of the current firmware on the device, even if Apple is not signing. For example, if your device is on 4.0 and you want the blobs, you can use this program to rip, or dump the blobs from the device.
It is important to note that this only works if your device is susceptible to the Limera1n jailbreak (everything but iPad 2). The iPod Touch 2G and iPhone 3G are also not compatible simply because there is no need for them (latest firmware is always jailbreakable). In short, iFaith allows you to:
● Dumps SHSH Blobs ● Build *signed* IPSW with dumped SHSH blobs ● Submits dumped SHSH blobs to remote server for backup.
iFaith will be released within the hour for Windows. Mac version will be out in a few weeks. The device does not have to be jailbroken, but does have to be on the firmware of the blob you want to dump.
Update: You can download iFaith here. A tutorial is available here.

what if the current firmware is a custom firmware what happens then. does it still save the blobs for that firmware. for example if i have a custom firmware of 4.0.1 on my iphone will it save the blobs for 4.0.1? including that baseband?

Dont see why not. The SHSH blobs are in the firmware and not the baseband so I believe it will work.

The blobs are independent of the custom firmware bundle. If you are on 4.0.1 (custom firmware or not) the SHSH blobs will save properly.

Dopey question, but could I use this to downgrade my baseband on my 3gs running 4.3.3 so that I can unlock with untrasn0w?

Cool. I can see this helping a lot of people having issues and don't want to update to the current firmware and had missed the SHSH window for their current firmware.
