Downgrading 4.3.4 to 4.3.3

**-Alex** · 09-18-2011, 05:08 PM

I recently jailbroke my iPhone 4 with redsn0w. My firmware is 4.3.4... and shortly after jailbreaking I realized there was only a tethered jailbreak available for 4.3.4.

I'd like to downgrade to 4.3.3 (or any version that Jailbreakme supports) so that I can have an untethered jailbreak. Yesterday I accidentally turned off my phone and couldn't turn it back on until I got home and used redsn0w... which sucked.

I've tried to understand how to downgrade, but I just don't understand these "SHSH blobs" and how to get them...? Lol? I'm pretty much lost.

Thanks everyone for your help. And BTW, I really don't mind if downgrading removes all my Cydia apps and themes. I can easily re-download them.

Thanks for your help and patience!

1) Got SHSHs for 4.3.3 saved?
2) I'd advise against jailbreakme and suggest Redsn0w
3) Check for SHSHs with TinyUmbrella ... download it and click "Save SHSHs"

Download tiny umbrella. Connect your device and press save shsh. Any shsh you are able to save are the firmware you can restore to.

Ok so I did that and all I have is the SHSH for 4.3.5.

Does this mean that I'm stuck with my current firmware and the tethered jailbreak?

Sad to say but yes

Damn... Oh well, I'll just have to be patient and wait for an untethered jailbreak to come out. :/ Thanks for your help anyways.

Tethered isn't that bad I did it for a couple of months no issues. Just make sure ya don't restart it or installing anything that needs a restart and you should be good

On 4.3.4 I think tethered is only have the issue, if at all an issue for those who don't mind. The other half is all the incompatibilities and the bugs with the unrefined jailbreaks on 4.3.4 and 4.3.5. Some people report not having many issues with it, some report having any and all issues

It's ultimately a preference, IMO. I personally can't stand using a tethered jb let alone a possibly buggy one.

Mind if I ask why? In the process of returning to 4.3.3 and just assumed to use JBme since it's easier...

Bc I've helped many people restore and rejb with something else bc jailbreakme was buggy for them.

It doesn't happen to everyone but I've seen a lot
