hey guys this is Austin and today I'm here with the tutorial showing you how to backup your SH message blobs as well as downgrade your firmer on an iPhone iPod Touch or iPad now the way we're going to be doing it today is using I faith now I think there's a little different from something such as tiny umbrella and what it allows you to do is pull the sh-sh bulbs from your device rather than relying on Apple to still be signing them if you guys are not familiar with what sh-sh blobs are I'll be brief basically what an sh-sh blob is is a key that Apple is gives you and it is unique to every device and every firmware so the let's take for example I have an iPod Touch here and it was on 4.3.3 if I want to get back to that four point three point three firmware I'm going to need the sh-sh blob and the only way to get that ordinarily is to have captured it using some program while Apple was still signing that but as soon as the new firmware comes out apples stop signing it and you have no way of getting back to that old firmware however with a bait that works a little differently instead of relying on Apple it actually pulls the sh-sh blob off of your device so for example I have an iPod touch on 5.0 point one here however it was on 5.0 for example we can pull it right off there and not have to worry about Apple not allowing us to downgrade to whatever firmware we like so once you download the program it is Windows only but once you download it there's gonna be a few options here but very simple ignore everything else except dump sh-sh blobs now once you get to this it will give you a little information now this is compatible with most but not all devices so basically this is going to be compatible with all I phones iPod Touches and iPads with the exception of the new iPhone 4s as well as the iPad 2 if you do have the iPhone 4s or the iPad 2 not you're a little add a lot but if you have a pretty much any other device that should work so need to go ahead and click proceed and go through the credits and thanks will ask if you were dumping an Apple TV 2 which we are not and so we're ready to begin so at this point you need to go ahead and plug your iPhone iPod touch your iPad in and I do want to take this opportunity to mention that you do not need to be jailbroken and this will not jailbreak or anything it'll basically just get a little information off your device and by information I mean the sh-sh blobs not like anything personal or anything like that alright so all you need to do is show off your device and be sure it is plugged in and you know turn off iTunes or anything like that if it was open so hold the power button for just a second until you get the slide to power off this will take just a moment and I will do want to mention that if you are using a tethered jailbreak you will need to boot as tethered after this but not a huge deal shouldn't take just a moment so once your device is shut off we can go ahead and begin and what we're going to do is enter DFU mode so if you've ever jailbroken before it's gonna be really simple very obvious you know but I'll go ahead and walk you guys to it if you've never done it before alright so we're all done here we're ready to click start so as soon as you hit start it'll give you a little countdown when he did hold the power and the home button for five seconds so ready set go shouldn't hold them both together for ten seconds and of course it has a nice countdown timer but again if you've ever done DFU mode you can probably do it in your sleep but alright and we're gonna release the power button and just continue holding the home button and it's as simple as that it always says thirty seconds but in my expertise it usually is more like 10-15 seconds something like that we'll just continue waiting here until it gives us the go-ahead at this point you can set your device down and just give I face a few minutes to go ahead and go through all of the different sh-sh blobs and dump them so this is it's done with this I'll be right back alright so once it's all done it will ask you to save the sh-sh cache so just save it in a safe place you know preferably somewhere that you won't lose it will take just a moment and then it will save it on top of that it will also save it to a server so if for some reason you're not able to actually get the physical goal file on your computer you can always read download it so there we go simple as that we can click OK and it'll bring us back to the main page now for most of you guys you're gonna be done you've backed up your sh sh blob whatever firmware you were on but to make sure I recommend go ahead and click click available show of payable sh sh caches so just allow it to give it a second with your device of course still plugged in and it'll pull up all the sh sh cache as you have so for example you can see I have four point three point three as well as 5.0 point one which I just did anyway guys that's about it if you ever want to downgrade to that firmer all you need to do is click build signed IPS WS blogs and then just simply restore it in iTunes and you will be back to whatever firmware that you had the sh sh blob for anyway guys if you enjoyed this video definitely sure to leave it a thumbs up and if you're interested in more videos like this be sure to subscribe
