Earlier this morning the TinyUmbrella was updated to new 4.1.13 version with the support to work with iOS 4.2b3 SHSH Blobs for iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPad, iPod Touch Devices and Apple TV. Clicking Save SHSH will grab 4.2b3 now for your device. The creator / developer of TinyUmbrella has also added a few bug fixes etc.

A couple new features and a few bugfixes included in new TinyUmbrella 4.1.13. (The device list will scroll finally). With 4.2 looming, make sure you and your friends have their 4.1 SHSH saved. Running TinyUmbrella with the default options for your device will ensure Cydia and you have your SHSHs saved.

A tutorial on saving your shsh blobs is listed below so don’t waste any time and go ahead with this tutorial. You need to have your new iOS 4.2b3 SHSH blobs saved in order to be able to have an untethered jaibreak for the official iOS 4.2 update when it comes out to public (Possible this week / Wednesday or Friday)

Use the step by step guide posted below to save your SHSH blobs (ECID SHSH) of iPhone 4, 3GS, iPod touch 2G/3G on iOS 4.2 and iPad without having to jailbreak your device.

HOW TO SAVE SHSH BLOBS WITH TINYUMBRELLA 4.1.13

Your all done, four simple steps saves your SHSH Blobs /hashes locally on your computer and it also sends a request for them to be saved on Sauriks servers (Cydia). You don’t have to worry about anything anymore just go on about your business.

Now a lot of you still probably don’t know what these are for, so let me tell you what’s up.

Apple at one time use to let you restore to any firmware you wanted back in the 3.x days. When the new idevices came out along with iOS 4.x Apple stopped letting you restore to any firmware you wanted to. Basically they tell you that if anything goes wrong with your idevice you have to restore to what they allow you to which is the latest firmware available at that present time.

Having your SHSH blob files for older firmwares saved locally and remotely on Cydia lets you restore to that older firmware even when the new 4.2 or higher iOS firmware is out. Remember, normally Apple doesn’t let you restore to the old firmwares and only allows you to restore to the latest firmware available.

Long story short, doing this show procedure will let you downgrade your firmware in case you accidentally updated to a firmware that isn’t jailbreakable.

Here are two perfect examples / articles I wrote back when Spirit Jailbreak came out and to block this Jailbreak Apple came out with new iOS 4.1 update so people who updated their iPad or iPhone were stuck UNLESS they had their SHSH blobs saved.

Check out these two articles, so if this will happen to you and you accidentally update your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch you can do something similar to these tutorials to get back to the previous iOS version and re-Jailbreak your device again.
