How to restore locally using signatures SHSH TinyUmbrella saved. Here's a guide to recover from these signatures Saurik server, just in case you have not saved locally and Cydia informs you that your device has SHSH the file for your specific version of firmware.



As said, the guide is only useful to those who have saved their SHSH on the server and the homepage of Cydia Saurik see a green script similar to screenshot below. For example, based on the screenshot, for devices that can "collect" from Cydia SHSH files for firmware 4.0.1 and 4.0.2.

2. From the main screen, check the option "Advanced Options".

From this menu choose exactly the model of your device (including iPhone3GS, 4 or 3G, iPod touch 2nd or 3rd generation or iPad) and the firmware version you want to retrieve the file from Cydia SHSH to store locally.



4. In the bottom field instead, called "Request From", make sure you select "Cydia" and not "Apple."
