TinyUmbrella - Backup Your SHSH

TinyUmbrella is a tool that allows users to backup their SHSH to Saurik's server and also on their computer. SHSH is a special signature used by Apple to verify the firmware that you are installing on your iPhone. When a new firmware is released Apple stops signing the old firmware and by using TinyUmbrella users can go back to the old firmware if they choose to do so. This is perfect for those who have unlocked or jailbroken their iPhones.

The reason for using TinyUmbrella is to ensure that your iPhone will always be jailbreakable. You can then remain on the old firmware and the SHSH for the new firmware versions will be stored so you keep your jailbreak. TinyUmbrella is a free utility that is available for all jailbroken idevices and is available via Cydia.
