Redsn0w will now let you downgrade all iOS devices to earlier firmware

Written by Andre Yoskowitz @ 14 May 2012 10:11 User comments (2)

The iPhone Dev Team has updated the popular jailbreaking tool.

As announced last month, the group has released an updated version of the tool, one that adds a major new feature. Users can now downgrade any current iOS device to an earlier version of the Apple mobile OS.

After opening redsn0w 0.9.11b1, interested users will find a new "restore" option after clicking through "Extras -> Even More."

In order to restore the previous OSs, you will have to have backed up your personalized SHSH blobs using either the TinyUmbrella utility or Cydia's own TSS@Home function.

So does this mean you can finally get rid of itunes? If I still had an iphone I would really appreciate this, but I moved on and I will never go back.
