There is no reason whatsoever to upgrade to 4.0.1. You can save your 4.0.1 SHSH without upgrading, and 4.0.1 has absolutely no advantages over 4.0.

How do you backup 4.0.1 SHSH blobs if you are currently running 4.0 then?
 
He just posted that he isn't waiting for 4.1 and that also 4.0.1 should have no problem being jailbroken. I just updated and am going to save my shsh before I miss another chance to do it.

Cool,





... Still, No iPhone 4 jailbreak yet..


That's what I'm waiting for. :)
 
If u need to restore it back to 4.0.1 for example. After the jb apple will prob release 4.0.2 for example patching the jb exploit and if u ever need to restore your phone you won't be able to restore to 4.0.1 but 4.0.2 and thus losing your jb and unlock. Get it why shshs are very important to have?

I get it. I meant that you don't necessarily need to have your SHSH blob to jb that's all. I totally understand how important they are though, especially since I had my iphone 4 replaced and missed out on the chance to save my 4.0 SHSHs for my replacement phone. I'm going to do my 4.0.1 on the new one right now though.

Yep, you got it.
I can feel it coming in the air......
The new spirit JB that is :D
 
How do you save 4.0.1 using tinyumbrella if you haven't upgraded yet?

Just run it even if you are on 4.0. Since Apple is only signing 4.0.1 now, tinyumbrella will save your 4.0.1 shsh blobs for you automatically. I just did it myself and I'm on 4.0 still. Takes all of a minute tops.
 
I forgot what exactly the deal was with the last iTunes update but I know it was said not to update to the newer iTunes if you used spirit to jb or something to that effect. Does anyone know if there's been anything mentioned about not updating to the most recent update of iTunes that was released yesterday I believe.
 
I am getting kinda confused, different people are telling different answers. I have yet to download 4.01, should I stick with 4.0 right now? I have my SHSH saved with 4.0 with Umbrella.
 
you can stay if you want. the 4.0.1 only changes the math with the signal. and the actual look of the display. you can upgrade too if you want. it's up to you.
 
No your not impatient... it is taking a while to release...

I would have thought the jailbreak would have been out shortly after 4.0.1- but no :(

shame Geohot has left the scene... otherwise he would have released one by now...
