I downloaded the ios 11.1 software way back when it was still being signed. I want to downgrade my iPhone 10, running 11.2 so I can jailbreak. Would I still be able to downgrade, or will iTunes not allow it?
 
I know that... I downloaded the ipsw when it was still being signed last year, but I never got around to downgrading my device. My question is can I still downgrade with that ipsw, as it was downloaded before signing stopped?

Nope. You see, even though you downloaded while it was still signed, the keys that they are signed with expire.

No. The only way you would be able to install it is if they start signing it again.
 
No but I did hear you could do something if you saved shsh blobs but I’m honestly not sure what or how that works...
 
Ok just seen where a YouTuber said you can save shsh blobs and downgrade. He’s a well known youtuber tho.


Would that be one of the now quite old EverythingApplePro videos? Because when he said that it was because one of the jailbreak developers had hinted at a tool that could downgrade you with those blobs, but that tool, to my knowledge, never came out

Brandon butch said it. He has quite a few viewers. And it wasn’t to long ago.
