Hi..ive previously saved my blobs with tinyumbrella and my pc crashed recently.. ive downloaded the new version of TU but it no longer shows my shsh blobs, ive also requested blobs from CYDIA but TU still shows blank.. plz help, regards iPhone 4s ios 6.1.1

Unless you uploaded them or had your iDevice jailbroken for a while, you probably can't get them back. Apple is still signing 6.1.2 and it's jailbreak-able, so save your 6.1.2 blobs, update and jailbreak.

hi, I am using 4 without jailbreak, but I upgraded to ios6.0, and reset through the phone. now when I try to connect using TinyUmbrella, it shows no SHSH. Am I too late to restore to 5.X?

TLB - January 13, 2013 at 3:33am

Yes, its too late, because the SHSH have to save before the atualization. I'm sorry if i write wrong because i'm not american.

Hi have saved shsh from iPhone 4S, but only 6.0gm (10A403) shown on the list. Am I too late?

iDevices on 5.x.x or higher need more than SHSH blobs to downgrade: The AP Ticket also needs backed up. Unless you did this manually while Apple were still signing the 5.1.1 iOS, there's nothing you can do about this now.

Are you even planing to bring out an unlock for iphone4 on 2.10 baseband ,or shud i sell this & buy a new non apple phone

Martin - May 18, 2011 at 1:11pm

For clarification, saving your SHSH blobs has absolutely nothing to do with Jailbreaking, unlocking your phone or preserving the baseband during an upgrade. TinyUmbrella is a tool to save your SHSH blobs should you want to downgrade to an iOS version not serviced by Apple.

Hello guys, Great work you all guys are doing here. I've bought an iPhone 4 from ebay and it cames jailbreaked (limera1n) and unlocked (ultrasn0w) and it's working perfectly. I have 4.0.2 running on the 1.59.00 baseband. My question is, can I update my IOs to 4.1 without loosing the unlock? For what I read I should go for the tinyumbrella + alt-restore a custom ipsw on itunes and it should be fine. Is this the right methodology considering I've been previoisly jailbroken with limera1n? I beleive this method keeps my baseband at 1.59.00 but I saved my SHSHs with tinyumbrella and could only save: - iPhone4 4.1 (8B117) - iPhone4 4.21 (8C148) - iPhone4 4.2b3 (8C5115c) for what I've learned I cannot save my 4.0.2 SHSH because it's no longer being signed by apple. What does this means in my iPhone context? 1 - I can update to 4.1 and keep my baseband (1.59.00) BUT if something go wrong I'm not able to unlock because I cannot return to 4.02. 2 - I can update to 4.1 but my baseband will be updated also. 3 - none of the above : ) What's your opinion? Thank you very much for the time guys.

iphone 4 , 4.0.2 , 1.59 out of the box, i can only save 4.1 blobs, so can i restore to 4.1 without loosing the baseband ??? ->when requesting a version, if i select the latest FW, am i safe to restore to it BB wise ??? Thanks!!!

Martin - November 12, 2010 at 2:10pm

No, because you don't have SHSH blobs for anything earlier than 4.0.2. You either need to stay at 4.0.2 or wait until the next Baseband hack is released.

Hi, 3.2.2 is already installed on my iPad, is there any way to jailbreak it?

Martin - October 6, 2010 at 1:37pm

Not at the moment - a new JB is being worked on at the moment.

krillin837 - November 12, 2010 at 12:02pm

Sorry but i've used PwnageTool 4.1.2 to jailbreak an iPad on 3.2.2 It worked great.... If you don't have a Mac, maybe a friend have one :) Cheerss!

Martin - November 12, 2010 at 1:10pm

@krillin837 - a JB was released within the time that I posted that (as what normally happens). At Oct 6th, there wasn't one available :) Glad you got it done tho!
