Above all what does this iFaith mean? iFaith is an open source SHSH dumper for the Windows family of operating systems. It has been written by iH8sn0w. It runs on all devices that are susceptible to the limera1n exploit except the iPad 2. How is it useful? This is useful when you receive a device with old firmware on it that you want to restore. Though Apple doesn’t sign that firmware anymore, you can still backup the SHSH data directly from the device. This makes you to set up the firmware later to avoid upgrading the firmware.

One thing to be borne in your mind is that while you can save iOS 5.0 SHSH blobs now (Provided you are currently running it on your iOS device), you wont be able to downgrade to the stock version of iOS 5.0, once you have updated to iOS 5.0.1 or later. This may be due to certain new checks used by Apple starting from iOS 5.0 to ensure people remain to the latest version of iOS. Further explanation can be found here.

You can however still go back to custom that is created for incorporating the firmware you are downgrading to, as explained by iH8sn0w in the video embedded above.
