i have an ipad 1st gen it came with 4.3.4 on it with no blobs saved
is there anyway i can downgrade it to 4.3.3 without the blobs this is beating me because i have jailbroken all my iphones ect since 3.1.2 and with this ipad i restored to 4.3.3 with the aid of tiny umberella and it went fine itunes popped up saying device has be restored the normal thing but but the ipad never reboots and u have to boot it tetherd to get anywhere but itunes never gave any errors any help would be great

Unfortunately, without those 4.3.3 blobs, you aren't going to get that version to run on that iPad. Ever.

Since you have an iPad1, you can use the tethered jail break for 4.3.4 and 4.3.5 as created by redsnow (specific details are in the tutorial section of this Hacking area).

You can't restore to 4.3.3 without blobs.
And the redsnow jailbreak for 4.3.3 is untethered.
You aren't making any sense.
