#How to save and use valid SEP blobs

Seeing how iOS 16 SEP will be incompatible with iOS 14 and 15, once the last version of iOS 15 is unsigned those versions will be inaccessible without SEP/baseband blobs. I have a WiFi iPad 5 (A9) of which I'd like to keep the ability to restore to those firmwares.
So my question is, how do I save valid SEP blobs, and how can I use them? I know A9 is compatible with blackb1rd so it is possible to set the nonce and stuff. I saw an option in tsschecker to supply a SEP nonce, but how do I know what to set that nonce to? Is it related to the normal generator (I have it set to 0x1111111111111111)? And does futurerestore support using SEP blobs instead of using a signed SEP?

Thanks gir, i will

i'm not sure blackbird can actually set sep nonce

#

the thing with sep blobs is that you can use them but they have to be used immediately after grabbing them

#

how does one get the SEP nonce though

carmine perch
#

sep nonce is included in TSS response iirc

#

blackbird may be able to set the sep nonce but i think the problem is there isnt a tool that uses it

minor mulch
#

tsschecker's help says that it uses a random SEP nonce if it's not provided

minor mulch
#

and does futurerestore support using sep blobs?

#

i think nyu had a modified version that allowed him to use sep blobs

#

but that was more to prove that you could use delay ota sep blobs

minor mulch
#

hm

carmine perch
#

he still had to use them immediately after requesting them

#

i think

minor mulch
#

damn

#

because were kind of running out of time to save valid SEP blobs compatible with iOS 14 and 15

carmine perch
#

yeah...

in all honestly you're probably able to save blobs and then just wait and hope a SEP downgrade tool comes out but idk how to actually get SEP blobs

minor mulch
#

i can save them with tsschecker

#

but i wasn't sure what to set the SEP nonce to

#

because i don't know if it's linked to like the generator or APnonce

Sep blobs are a part of all blobs

#

The only thing invalid is baseband if you don’t specify bbsnum

#

nothing else needs to be done

#

just have to wait for someone to figure out sep downgrading

minor mulch
#

okay thanks

#

so i don't need to set the SEP nonce in the blob to a specifc value depending on some generator?

turbid kite
#

well unless the sep thing allows skip nonce you need to set it and make art valid and happy

minor mulch
#

not sure what that means

turbid kite
#

art is antireplay token just another factor that will prevent downgrading

minor mulch
#

ahh, do i need to save that?

#

wait, antireplay, is it even saveable lol

#

so basically just by saving blobs i'm already as prepared as i can be for unsigned SEP restores?

turbid kite
#

doesn't need to be saveable

#

just need to have sep set a new one for the blob you want

#

this is raw art

#

I'm sure its encrypted after the fact

minor mulch
#

ah nice

#

so until someone makes a sep restore tool i have done all i can?

turbid kite
#

yep

minor mulch
#

awesome

#

thanks for your help!

turbid kite
#

might as well save baseband blobs if you have an iPhone

#

if you don't u don't

minor mulch
#

my blackb1rd phone is a 6s so no need hehe, and the other is A13 so no blackb1rd

#

still thanks for your tips!
