Coincidence?

[DarkSmoke]

I don't know if this was just coincidence..
But while i was trying to flash my iphone many times and failed due to a bad usb as i explained in another thread... I had saved my SHSH in TinyUmbrella and i had the ones for 4.1, 5.0 and 5.1b or something like that.. now i read that the only way to get an shsh is if Apple opens signing or you had the firmware version installed once already on your phone.. So next day after i discovered were my problems were before trying to flash my phone again , i pressed saved shsh on TinyUmbrella and somehow i got the 4.3.3 SHSH... now i never had the 4.3.3 installed on the iphone altough i tried alot of times installing and failed... so i start the server and tried to flash my phone to 4.3.3 and it went on without problems...

How did i get the 4.3.3 shsh ? was it just coincidence?

TinyUmbrella most likely request the blobs from Apple for you when you had the 4.1 firmware but had not yet updated. You may have selected this without being aware. Alternatively, Cydia may have cached them (although this is unlikely if you never had the firmware). Having valid blobs for 4.3.3 would mean that they were obtained at some point when Apple was still signing that firmware, which occurred from May 4, 2011 to July 15, 2011.

So if you are still on 4.1 without already yet updated and TinyUmbrella would request the shsh blops from apple they would give them but most likley would be fake ? Am i Understanding this correctly ? if not correct me.

Altough they weren't fake because I successfully updated to 4.3.3, So my gues would be that the previous owner had sometime installed 4.3.3 and Cydia cached them.

Just wanna learn, because I'm new to the scene and i found this not normal from what i read
