Help with jailbreaking and Cydia for iPhones, iPads, and iPod touches.


How to jailbreak iOS 6.0-6.1.2 untethered on all iOS devices (and 6.1.3 tethered on older iOS devices).
Apple has released iOS 6.1.3 and 6.1.4; do not upgrade/restore (if you want to keep your jailbreak). You cannot downgrade/upgrade/restore to 6.1.2 using SHSH blobs on newer devices; older devices that can use SHSH blobs are iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, and iPod touch 4th gen. Learn more.

Hi Folks,

I just received a new-to-me iPad 1 with iOS 5.1. Hence, there are no SHSH blobs for it. Is there any way I can downgrade to 5.0.1 (for example, by restoring using an IPSW from http://appldnld.apple.com/iPhone4/041-3308.20111109.Fvgtr/iPad1,1_5.0.1_9A405_Restore.ipsw)? Or, will I just have to wait for 5.1 to be jailbroken?

Thanks!

No SHSH, no downgrade

No way to downgrade to 5.0.1 without SHSH saved. Yes there is an iPad 1 5.1 JB but tethered using redsn0w 9.10b6/9.10b6b.
