How To Downgrade iOS 5.1 To iOS 5.0.1/5.0 On iPhone 4/3GS, iPad 1G, iPod Touch 4G/3G Using iFaith

by 291 Comments

Apple released the iOS 5.1 firmware update right after they announced the new iPad and the Apple TV 3G on March 7th. Although we warned jailbreakers to stay away from the iOS 5.1 firmware update, I am sure there are some people who have accidentally upgraded to iOS 5.1.

Now the reason why accidentally upgrading to the iOS 5.1 firmware is a big deal, is because only the iOS 5.0.1 firmware can be Jailbroken Untethered at this time. This means if you upgraded you will only be able to Jailbreak tethered, or worse, even not at all for those who upgraded their iPhone 4S or iPad 2.

If you are looking for a how to guide on how to downgrade your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad from the iOS 5.1 firmware to the iOS 5.0.1 or iOS 5.0 firmware then you are in luck! In this how to guide from iJailbreak.com you will learn how to downgrade your A4 iOS device to the iOS 5.0.1 or iOS 5.0 firmware from iOS 5.1. Before we start however make sure you meet the requirements listed below…

iOS 5.1 Downgrade Requirements: 

  • Supported iOS devices include the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPad 1G, iPod Touch 4G, iPod Touch 3G. Unsupported iOS devices include the iPhone 4S, and iPad 2.
  • APTicket + saved SHSH blobs for the iOS 5.0.1 or iOS 5.0 firmware.
  • A Windows computer.

Downgrade From iOS 5.1 To iOS 5.0.1 / iOS 5.0

Step 1) – The first thing you will need to do is download a tool developed by iH8Sn0w called iFaith. What the iFaith tool does is dumps the SHSH blobs directly off your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad for the firmware you are currently running. Allowing you to stitch together a custom firmware that can downgrade your iOS device to a previous firmware version Apple is not signing. If you are following this how to guide you most likely already used this tool to dump your iOS 5.0.1 or iOS 5.0 SHSH blobs.

Download iFaith 1.4.2 (Windows)

Step 2) – The next thing you will need to do is run iFaith (click the OK button once you have read the warning).

iFaith v1.4.2 Windows

Step 3) – With iFaith up and running you will need to click the Build *signed* IPSW w/ Blobs button.

iFaith v1.4.2 Windows

Step 4) – Upon clicking the button previously mentioned you will need to browse for the saved SHSH blobs file that was created when you saved your SHSH blobs for the iOS 5.0.1 or iOS 5.0 firmware.

iFaith v1.4.2 Windows

Step 5) – It is now time to browse for the iOS 5.0.1 or iOS 5.0 firmware file. Depending on which SHSH blob file you selected you will need to select either the iOS 5.0.1 firmware file or iOS 5.0 firmware file (download iOS firmware files here).

iFaith v1.4.2 Windows

Step 6) – After you have selected the right firmware file iFaith will begin creating your custom firmware file.

Step 7) – When your custom firmware file has been created go back to the iFaith main menu (if you are not there already) and click the Use DFU Pwner (iREB) button. Now simply follow the instructions presented to you for putting your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad into pwned DFU mode.

iFaith v1.4.2 Windows

Step 8 ) – With your iOS device in pwned DFU mode you will need to launch iTunes and restore your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad to the custom firmware file you created. This can be done by Option (alt) clicking the Restore button on Mac OS X or by SHIFT clicking the Restore button on Windows.

Congratulations! You have now downgraded your A4 iOS device from the iOS 5.1 firmware to either the iOS 5.0.1 firmware or the iOS 5.0 firmware. If you have any further questions or concerns please leave them in the comments section below…

  4. Worked for me as well. I used this guide to actually upgrade from iOS 4.3.3 to iOS 5.0.1. before this I kept getting error 3194 “This device isn’t eligible for the requested build.”. this was due to Apple has stopped signing iOS 5.0.1 I think. custom firmware I buld with sn0wBreeze didn’t restore either but this guid worked great. thanks very much

  6. I’m stuck at step one because iFaith says windows version. Is this possible to do using a Mac?

  8. oh, i had issues going from 5.1 to 5.0.1 but successfully managed to get it to 4.3.3. Now how do i go back up to 5.0.1 instead of 5.1? I have an iPhone 4. someone please help???

  12. so it creates firmware file that i can use when i click restore?? where can i find it?? plz help!

  13.  I keep getting 1600 error even after reboot pc and rerunning ireb or ifaith nothing helps
    plz help me fix this thx

  14. I try to open the ifaith program unsing my windows 7, it says ” the application was unable to start correctly (0xc00007b)” may i know which part i did wrongly…. i am trying to open ifaith 1.4.2

  15. so its the same to me. can’t open the file under win xp…
    does anyone know what to do

  18. i tried it like 10 times and it did not work but then i did it 1 more time and it worked perfectly

  19. WOWWWW!!!!! THANKSSSSSSSSSSS A LOTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!! LIFE SAVER!!!!! BEEN STRUGGLING FOR 2 DAYS!!!!!!! :( 

  24. i have a same problem, will somebody help us please. i have ios 5.1 need to downgrade to 5.0.1 but i did not save my 
    shh blob. can you please show me how to save 
    shh blob with ios 5.1. 

  27. I Had the same problem then i jailbroke my ios 5.1 and cydia had a saved SHSH blob so what i did was that i used tinyumbrella to save the 5.0.1 shs blob and then followed the steps above. hope this helps

  29. you can´t downgrade to a older version like 5.0.1
    you have to wait for a jailbreak on 5.1

  33. how can i jailbreak ipod touch 4g … i downgraded but while using redsnow 0.9.10b5c and also 0.9.10b6 to jailbreak it doesn’t jailbreak plz help me

  34. I managed this..

    iPhone 4 (GSM)

    Upgraded from 4.3.3 JB to 5.1non-JB through iTunes.
    Used TinyUmbrella to grab my previous SHSH Blobs from 4.3.3 (I had never used/backed up these prior to upgrading to 5.1 so I was lucky to grab them).
    Used iFaith as outlined above with SHSH Blobs from TinyUmbrella, and let iFaith download the 4.3.3 FW to downgrade.

    (I had the options of 4.3.3 / 4.3.4 / 4.3.5 / 5.01 when using TinyUmbrella to grab the blobs.)

    hope this works for some others! (-:

  36. does it preserve the baseband? or it will upgraded the baseband? coz i rely on ultrasn0w to unlock my 3GS. if it upgraded, i cant unlock with ultrasnow :(

  37.  i thought that too. if you had cydia before, the download tiny umbrella and click there “save SHSH” (something like that) then it will show you all your shsh blobs. if you didn’t had cydia ever, then you’re screwed

  38. Downgrading from 5.1 to 5.x, also works using redsnow, if you’re on a mac.  (provided you’ve saved shsh blobs and APticket.)  Just open redsnow, and stitch a 5.0.1 firmware with your shsh blobs and APticket that you saved.
    Then open redsnow again, and get into pwned DFU mode.  Option-click restore in iTunes, and select your custom firmware you just created.
    Let it do its thing, and at the end most likely you will get: “error 1, this iphone could not be restored, an unknown error occured.”  When that happens, open redsnow and click “fix recovery” and follow the directions (it will tell you to enter DFU mode again” then it will exploit with limerain, and when its done, you will be on 5.0.1!
    No tinyumbrella, or ifaith needed.  Redsnow and iTunes are all you need.

  49. u can downgrade a4 devices with shsh blobs, but u can never downgrade a5. so downgrading 4s to ios 5.0.1 is a no no. If you do have ipad 2 with shsh blobs saved for ios 4.3.3 then gr8 for u

  54. Hi guys, need some help
    Ive made the custom firmware and put my iPhone 4 into pwned DFU mode, but whenever i shift-restore, the restore progress bar gets to the end and then iTunes throws an error 37.
    This has happened twice and afterwwards my iPhone appears to be bricked.
    Forced restart doesn’t work, the only way to fix this is to restore to iOS 5.1
    Anyone else have this problem and does anyone have a solution to this?

    Thanks

  55. Hey guys, I currently have my iphone 4 jailbroken on ios 5.01, it entered a recovery/respring loop and it’s been impossible to fix (I’ve mainly been trying to shift+restore the 5.0.1 custom IPSW I saved when I jailbroke it, but I keep getting itunes errors). I’ve been thinking maybe I should re-jailbrake to 5.1 and then downgrade back, however I HAVE NOT backed up the blobs on my computer (they are on Cydia but since I’m in the recovery loop I can’t get them). If I run tiny umbrella in it’s current state, the iphone (and blobs) doesn’t show up, I’m wondering if I upgrade, re-jailbreak in 5.1, and THEN run Tiny Umbrella, will the old blobs show up? I’m thinking they should as I’ve had Cydia for over a year, but I don’t want to mess up and end up with a tethered jailbreak I can’t get out of… Any suggestions? Thanks!!!

  63. So guys I also had some problems downgrading my iTouch 4 from 5.1 to 5.0.1, but still I managed to fix it now: SHSH Blobs are necessary, so use a shsh blob from another iTouch with iOS 5.0.1 and save it using TinyUmbrella, then use iFaith to search the file and follow the instructions above. Without shsh blobs you can’t downgrade it :/ or jailbreak the iOS 5.1 and save your shsh blobs when cydia is installed, again use the instructions from above! Hope this helps.

  64. Invalid 5.0.1 (9A405) IPSW for the iPhone 4! MD5: (5bbb77c606d4e79a5fd8711f04b8dbd
    Help?

  65. Hi, it doesn’t work for me.
    I saved my shsh using tunyumbrella before upgrading to 5.1 by mistake.
    I followed the instruction but when i select the 5.0.1 (9A405) firmware it says:”INVALID 5.0.1 (9A405) ipsw for the iphone 4!”

    What the hell is that!!!

    Yes, i selected the right fw for the same shsh i saved

  68. Hey, if i accidentally upgraded to ios 5.1 and therefore did not save the shsh blobs for 5.0.1, when does the tethered jailbreak come out for the ios 5.1?

  69. so i had 5.0.1(jailbroken) before and yesterday my ipod 4g updated to 5.1 and was stuck in recovery mode. i was wondering is it possible to still get my 5.0.1 shsh blog from cyndia or am i screwed
     

  71. Hello iJailbreak

    I have downloaded to iOs 5.1 not knowing it is an iOs which dosent have jailbreaking options on it. I am planning to use your method but I want to know 100% that it is completely safe, and will not cause any viruses as I will be extremely mad and stressed out if it will do anything unusual to my computer. I have all of the listed things and am ready to do your method though the health and safety conditions must be good. Please answer back soon

  78. how can i downgrade to 5.0.1 from 5.1 ipad 2 here with no saved shsh blob

  79. Step 5, after browse firmware you want to downgrade then press “download it for me”?

  81. I have everything , SHSH files and my phone is 3Gs on 5.1 now and i wanna go back to 5.0.1. I did Exactly the same as the Steps showing above. But the Error 1600 is just annoying me. Can anyone help me out with this error ? Thz 

  84. if i browsing for ipsw, then launch “build ipsw” button, iFaith crashes.
    if i choose to download the ipsw, it simply says “wrong ipsw” or sthing like that.
    nice..any idea?

  85. Everything was successful till the itune restore. Keep having the error of restoring iphone in itunes error 1602-1604. Tried windows 7, error 2005? Any help?

  87. Did everything right, but it just goes back to recovery mode when its done with no errors. So confused.

  91. my friend has iOs 5.1 on his iPad mine is iOs 5.0.1 can i use my SHSH BloB file to his?

  93. I also get this error no matter what I try…
    trying to upgrade iphone 4 from 4.3.3 to 5.0.1

  94. i havent saved my shsh blobs for iOS 5.0.1 and updated to 5.1
    can i save the blobs for 5.1 and then downgrade to 5.0.1
    will it work??

  96.  This thing worked perfectly for  my iphone4,now im ready to try 5.1 :) thanks i Jailbreak!

  98. i love how the post says downgrade from iOs5.1 but ifaith doesn’t support it.  Awesome thanks for wasting my time!

  99. Done,, I’ve already downgrade my iPhone 3GS from iOS 5.1 to iOS 5.0.1. Thanks for your information.

  101. hi,
    is there anyway i could stop ios 5.1 download other than disconnecting WiFi? because whenever i connect the download starts. i have a 4s.

  103.  I had in my 3gs the 5.0.1 jb and unlocked, so my cellphone is currently kinda bricked because it doesent get the network… anyone knows if can I do something?, I have the shsh files.

  105. so if you have an iPhone 4, that has been upgraded to 5.1, where does one fork fond the blobs and is it possible to downgrade?

  106. My friend gave me his old iphone4 when I broke mine, I have restored it to factory setting and wiped all memory, and while I was doing this It updated software from 5.0.1 to 5.1, will I be able to downgrade my software or am I completely screwed until the 5.1 untethered Is released?

  107.  pare na update ko yung ipod ko sa ios 5.1 na naka jailbreak ako ngyon na nag break yung ipod ko pero na irestore ko sya nawala lahat ng games and files and music ko.pano ko magagawa idowngrade sa 5.0.1 ipod ko?

  108. Surprisengly I was on 5.0.1 and had accidentally removed cydia. I did not have iFile or OpenSSH installed. That meant I was doomed. I tried to save my shh blobs and the first I got nothing. The next time I tried I got SHSH blobs for 4.3.3/4.2.5 and 5.0.1 !! What Luck! I am currently downloading 5.1 and purposely upgrading to re-jailbreak my iPod after I downgrade from 5.1 to 5.0.1 !!! Thank you god!

  109. what r u trying to do with ios 5.1 with ifaith it is made to build older firmware versions not the current if you are trying to save them than use tiny umbrella

  114. sorry, but no this is not shsh blobs it is a restore file which is completely useless in this process

  119.  I had all but given up on my 3gs on 5.1! Mine’s the old bootrom version so I updated to 5.1 to use the untethered and ultrasn0w fixer for 5.1 but it didn’t work out. This post eased my frustrations! Thanks a lot Bro!

  123. you either get them when your signed or you don’t get them at all, simple as that, (have to get them when the firmware is fresh and live) not when its stopped being signed by apple

  124. did you preserve your baseband before you upgraded to 5.0.1? if you didn’t your SOL because 5.0.1 be default upgrades your baseband

  128. you can grab them with tinyumbrella if you had them in cydia saved at the top for 5.0.1 or 5.0, once you have the blob itself used ifaith to create your custom ipsw to restore from,  (this is important if your only at 5.1 because you upgraded but jailbroke and saved your SHSH blobs with cydia)

  132. no they are serial number specific, each have a different serial numbers attached to them, sorry man your sol

  133. if you want to save it too you have to also make a file that will save your BB as well, I believe you had to run it through redsnow first then stich your ipsw file with ifaith to restore, (google it I recall seeing a method for you)

  136. you could always download it standalone and then browse for it, google the firmware file you need for your device 

  140. your shsh’s files may be bad, try downloading them again, from tiny umbrella instead 

  142. you should most likely get 5.0.1 or 5.0 for your device as a standalone ipsw file, google iphone firmware and download it for your device then browse instead of download in Ifaith

  143. you SOL , please understand your going to have to wait till a 5.1 jailbreak thats untethered comes out, sorry man

  144. thanks, great to hear, same like me success on Iphone 4, without issue on the first try!

  145. great to hear your back up and running! I did my iphone 4 without issue, even on the first try. 

  146.  yes its safe, just have to do everything to a T! I did my iphone 4 without issue, you should be good :) as long as you have your SHSH’s for 5.0.1 saved for your device I can’t see an issue

  147. no your good to go, grab them with tinyumbrella, once you have them from there you can cook up your own custom firmware with this guide at the top of the page, as long as you have an iphone 4 like you say you do, then your good to go, as well you actually saved your SHSH’s to cydia’s servers 

  154. hold shift and select your custom IPSW (thats provided you followed the steps above and have your SHSH’s files for your device)

  155. why not grab them from cydia servers via a tool called tinyumbrella, google it and it will tell you how to do it, simple then you can come back and use this method to restore :)

  158. you have to rejailbreak son with redsnow, this only restores you to the stock 5.0 or 5.0.1 firmware without the jailbreak, once you jailbreak you will have cydia back, simple

  161. did you make your IPSW file with Ifaith? did you even read this guide or did you scroll down and just skim through it, I am not typing any further here

  164. have to cook up a custom ipsw with rednow  no_BB to restore, then use ifaith for the rest

  168. nothing your SOL, unless it showed in cydia that you had 5.0.1 at the top your screwed, if you had in the top of cydia then you can grab them with tiny umbrella 

  171. NOOOOOOOOOO your SOL without them if you had them at the top of cydia saying 5.0 or 5.0.1 then you can grab them from cydia with tiny umbrella then use this guide to restore :) hope that helps

  176. So I want to downgrade from iOS 5.1 to 5.0.1 because I wanna jailbreak my iPod Touch 4G and there isn’t a untethered version yet for iOS 5.1 ( as far as I know) and I was wondering if this would work, downgrading then jailbreaking. Also can someone as kind as to tell me if there is any risks (I will backup my iPod to discs beforehand)

  179. can you downgrade and then restore from backup and have everything from when you had ios 5.1? 

  181. i must have done something wrong as my phone wont work.
    ive tried everything even downloaded sn0wbreeze and found the thingy i wanted there but once itunes extracted my iphone it then said it cant work and now my phone is stuck off and broken HELP!!!!

  182. i have iphone 4 IOS 5.1 i want to downgrade to 5.0.1 but i want to preserve my baseband actually is 03.10.01 how can i do that? becasue i dont have shsh in this iphone? but i had another iphone that i saved it can i use it those?

  183. Oii,nao estou conseguindo rebaixar o meu iPhone 3Gs,pois quando vou em restaurar durante a restauração da varios tipos de erro 16xx,21 e mts outros,Alguem me ajude

  190. If you are on 5.1 do a tethered jailbreak download ishshit from cydia select iOS 5.0.1 then check cydia then hit save. I never saved my blobs and some how they just magically appeared after when I used this method and I have now successfully downgraded back to 5.0.1. If this works for anyone else would love the feed back! Good luck!

  194. i have downloaded iFaith, but when i try to open it, nothing happens.
    I dont know if my security system is blocking it or not
    please reply quick

  198. Im confused…. i tried everything but something with the SHSH files went wrong or something…

  201. Man, don’t be rude, he just wants information….at least have the attitude to behave and give a little as the developers give us their sources.

  203. i have iphone 4 IOS 5.1 i want to downgrade to 5.0.1 but i want to
    preserve my baseband actually is 03.10.01 how can i do that? becasue i
    dont have shsh in this iphone? but i had another iphone that i saved it
    can i use it those?

  217. Dumb Question?
    I have my SHSH blobs but no aptickets for 4.3.5 or 4.3.3
    I have tried to down grade using this method but It seems to only be good for downgrading software, not baseband…
    can I downgrade baseband without apticket?

  219. I have iphone 4 4.1 and want to upgrade to 5.0.1 , i don’t know whether i have SHSH thing or not. i’ve been using cydia since a year and a half . so is it possible to upgrade?

  220. i have a ipod 2g will this program work and if the the program fail is the a backup file

  224. Are SHSH blobs already on my computer or did i have to save them when i had the 5.0.1?

  225. like the guide says, you need a windows computer. There is no way (until iFaith comes out with a Mac Version) to do this with a Mac.
    …I know. Sucks to be a Mac user.

  226. For a guy who helps people… I seem to need some help.
    It’s kind of a beginners question, it’s more me just making sure if I can do this or not.
    Anyways, on to my question.

    If I have a Tethered Jailbreak, the SHSH blobs will still be there, right?
    Or do I still have to wait for the Untethered Jailbreak?

    anyways, to whoever helps me, iJailbreak or just a random person, thanks in advanced.

    For all that hassle it’s not worth it, unless there is a way around this then I would bother doing it. Just wait for the jailbreak too come for iOS 5.1 and 5.1.1

  253. If I download an earlier version of iTunes, can I just download an earlier iOS version on my 3gs? I seem to remember that iTunes now doesn’t allow that, but earlier versions did.
