iH8Sn0w Releases Update to iFaith v1.2.2

[AppleHacker]

Warning!!

iH8Sn0w has released iFaith 1.2.2, an update to his tool that dumps the SHSH Blobs of your current firmware, even if Apple is no longer signing that version.

------------------------------------
iFaith v1.2.2 Release Notes:
------------------------------------
* Added iPod Touch 2G Dumping capability (MC-Model users recommened)
* IPSW Creation for iPod Touch 2G is still a work in progress.
* Fixed exe compression issues (resulting in many DFU loops on IPSW creation).
* Fixed any Windows XP issues.
* Detects if the user inputs a decimal ECID when checking for available blobs.

* It is currently not possible to add iPad 2 support.

I've finally figured out the cause of all these DFU loops. Please refrain from using iFaith for now! Working with @Sk0ODaT on a fix

------------------------------------


It supports the following devices:

iPhone 3G[S]
iPhone 4
iPod Touch 3G
iPod Touch 4
iPad 1G
Apple TV 2

WORD of CAUTION:

When I released iFaith v1.0, you probably noticed that the dumping was way faster than v1.1 and v1.2. In 1.1, I specifically made it dump slower since there seemed to be a swarm of users that got into a DFU Loop. I initially thought that this was because USB was not able to keep up with the dump.

So I released 1.1 about a month later which integrated SHA-1 verification and slower dumping to ensure that what was being dumped over USB was what was on the device and what iFaith was receiving. I thought this would resolve the issue but it doesn't seem to have. So, I later came to notice that the exe compression/encryption on iFaith was causing some read/write issues with IO on the pc side.

When I sent mostwanted a beta build via Twitter, he did indeed say that it was successful. The build I had sent him was just a rebuild of v1.1 without any compression or encryption. It is available here:

I still see people complaining though that their getting DFU loops. The reason you'd be getting a DFU loop is that LLB and/or iBoot's SHSH Blobs were not properly dumped or written. Frankly, if you got a corrupt blob. Its virtually impossible to fix. Not until someone were to get a hold of Apple's SHSH signing keys. Which would make this app totally useless.

As of now, I'm sorry if your device is in a loop and you don't have any SHSH saved via TinyUmbrella or Cydia. Lets hope that v1.2.2 is the golden version. If you dumped blobs using v1.0 or v1.1 and got a DFU loop when building the ipsw with v1.2.2, then your blobs are useless pretty much. There isn't any other way I can put it.

At least I'm not hiding in the shadows pretending I'm not hearing this.

Yours truly,

I'm getting "Error -2 (Download Failure) when I try to dump, and when I try to use my SHSH created with 1.1, the program crashes during the "Processing Ramdisk" stage of the CFW creation process.

Good, perhaps he is updating 1.2 to fix my errors. Or, maybe his server is overloaded and that explains my dumping error.

Guess I'll try if it is stable this times

Me too Apple Hacker. I tried creating new blobs and CFW, and using blobs created with 1.1 yesterday. I ran fixrecovery too, and tried again both ways. Back to DFU mode every time.

One difference - the first time I restored after using 1.2.1, just after the restore completed and before the recovery loop started up again, iTunes briefly put up a message that said something about connecting to or contacting Apple. Not an error message, something that looked like it belonged there. Wish I caught a longer look at it.
