Now that a working jailbreak of iOS 10.2 has been released we strongly recommend you save your SHSH blobs before the signing window closes.
As promised, Luca Todesco released the first beta of a Yalu iOS 10.2 jailbreak this morning. You can learn more about the jailbreak and find jailbreak tutorials here.
Since the jailbreak does not work on iOS 10.2.1 or iOS 10.3, users who plan to jailbreak now or in the future should save their SHSH blobs as they may allow for downgrading to iOS 10.2 in the future.
We've posted tutorials on how to save your blobs using tsschecker from tihmstar.
Bruh I get this message when I try to downgrade.
''This device isn't eligible for the requested build (TATSU declined to authorize this image on this device for this user)''
What can I do to fix it?
If you're on iOS 10.2 and Yalu fails, you can restore to it with Prometheus and use your blobs even if that firmware is no longer being signed. If you're on a different firmware, you can either restore with Prometheus again using your saved blobs. When Apple pulls the plug on 10.2 that'll be your only way to stay on a jailbreakable iOS.
1. Can I save blobs when I'm on iOS 9.3.5? It's not signed but still on my phone. 2. How to restore (downgrade) via the blobs? I can not find it anywhere.
For those who are getting 10.2 not signed error, download tsschecker 1.7 from here: https://github.com/tihmstar/tsschecker/releases. It should download the blobs.
As @iClarified points out, restores with iTunes are still possible. Following Apple's tradition, iOS 10.2 will stop from being signed in a few days. Saved my SHSH2 blobs but I don't need them anymore since I restored to 10.2 this morning.
Hi D4xM4Nx!
So I dont need the blobs because I restored too to 10.2? If Yalu release jailbreak for Iphone 6 ( propably apple stopped signing before) I will manage to jailbreak it because I´m at 10.2 and blobs aren´t need if you already in 10.2?
Sorry for a newbie question!
Oops lol hey hyrulebr! Reason why you would need your SHSH2 blobs for iOS 10.2 saved is that, let's say, Yalu fails on your iPhone & there's no way to kick it out of an infinite loop, using Prometheus by Tihmstar you can restore it to 10.2 again using the blobs you've got.
I only got message
iOS 10.2 for device iPhone7,2 IS NOT being signed!
So I tried to update to 10.2 using the shift tricky but got a error 14. Now my iphone is in recovery mode and I can't get out of it. What can I do? I have to do a full restore to the latest firmware?
My last firmware was 9.3.3 with pangu PP
Manage to restore to 10.2. (my itunes version are old) but still can get the blobs. So if I manage to restore to 10.2 Apple still sigining this version, right?
Or just stay on 10.2 :) because let's be honest anyone who upgrades past it and then downgrades with Shsh blobs won't be able to retrieve backed up data. No a lot of people want to loose that data.
I keep getting TSSChecker telling me that iOS 10.2 is not currently being signed. I type in 10.2.1 though and it said the same... what's going on? How do I fix this?
me too! i ended up downloading Telegram from the app store and using that to use the /r/jailbreakbot to do it for me. Google telegram shsh2 /r/jailbreak that'll get you going
Yes, just use iTunes. Download the firmware for your iPhone from here: https://iClarified.com/750. When clicking the Update or Restore button in iTunes hold down Option (Mac) or Shift (Windows) and select the IPSW file directly. Remember, you can only do this while Apple is still signing iOS 10.2, so do it soon!
