futurerestore VS blobsaver

Blobs are a .shsh2 file that is used to submit a request to Apple to restore/update to an iOS or iPadOS version. It’s basically Apple’s signature for iTunes or idevicerestore (a library for restoring Apple devices) to go ahead and install an update to your device. Normally this is just a thing that happens when your device is in recovery mode. This process can be faked and taken over, however. A computer program called futurerestore (https://github.com/marijuanARM/futurerestore) can use those .shsh2 blobs to fake that in ways that I can’t personally explain, but it does. You can also save these blobs if you’re a jailbroken user, which makes it possible to restore or upgrade to certain iOS/iPadOS versions after Apple has stopped giving those signatures itself. For example, if you have saved blobs for iOS 14.3 and you’re on iOS 13.7, you can update or restore to 14.3 today, even though the versions that are signed at the moment are iOS 14.4.2 and 14.5.

That was the old version of future restore. Use https://github.com/marijuanARM/futurerestore and if you want a GUI use https://github.com/CoocooFroggy/FutureRestore-GUI

Your iPhone needs blobs to restore/update/boot(?). Apple only gives (signs) blobs for the firmwares they want you to be on (the latest versions). When you save a blob, you can use a 3rd party program, like FutureRestore, to use them blobs as opposed to having apple give you the blobs, they are saved locally, instead of being generated by apple's TSS server.

Look here https://github.com/marijuanARM/futurerestore/releases

There isn’t any problem using latest sep and baseband on futurerestore v194. I, and many others on r/jb discord have used it and it’s restored just fine

that's the irecovery issue, see https://github.com/marijuanARM/futurerestore#restoring-on-windows-10

Okay, I was using marijuanARM's version from this, but I'll using opa334's build. Thanks again!

Iirc it does it through recovery, I know this does it through DFU and you should be able to bypass the passcode!

https://github.com/airsquared/blobsaver/releases works on Windows.

use blobsaver: https://github.com/airsquared/blobsaver

At this moment there is no protocol. iPhones 8 and up can't use saved blobs anymore because of something new in iOS 16 (cryptix) more info (could change in thw future, no one knows with apple. As for saving blobs in your case. You can only save blobs for current signed fw, which are 16.3.1 and 16.4. Use blobsaver. There is a method to save your onboard 14.3 blobs. Search the sub for it. You never know, might come in handy in the future.

just use blobsaver, if it's saved, it's valid

https://github.com/airsquared/blobsaver, just make sure you dont press “read from device” after you save it the first time.

Hi, try with BlobSaver , is cross-platform and really easy to use!

download blobsaver to you computer and get your apnonce/generator pair from the phone. Write these down just to be sure. And now you can use that same blobsaver program or either of the online services tsssaver.1conan.com or shsh.host to save your blobs. You can only start with the blobs that are currently officially being signed by apple.

blobs here you go
