iH8sn0w Finds Way To Downgrade A5 Devices! [iPhone 4S, iPad]

He doesn't have retrograde. Thats why we don't see it out in the open. Its all BS !!!!!

first, how about jailbreaking ios 5.1. when are they going to release it. or are they just for show to increase sales of the new ipad.

Of course, downgrading is pointless. Why would anyone want to downgrande to 5.0.1 once 5.1 is jailbroken. You should concentrate your efforts on jailbreaking, not in downgranding. One the jailbreak is realesed, the time you wasted in founding a way to downgrade will be trash.

People need unlocks for many different reasons. Also not all of us are underage children whose parents buy IPhones for them.WTF

hi mate having some problems with my 4s when i got it i updated it to 5.1 then realised i cant jailbreak once upgraded. is there anyway u can send me step by step intructions on how to downgrade to 5.0.1 plese, thank u

This is great news but the article should not be posted until the actual way to do it has been released!

They need to stop announcing these like this. Just say "there is a way to downground". Dont give any details, Apple will now study apticket system to find the loophole. It's best to leave it unsaid until the JB is released. Then make it open source, who cares then.

Is there any chance to jailbreak ipad 2 at the moment? I am on 5.0.1, but the absinth does not work :-(.

Yes you can jailbreak the iPad 2 on iOS 5.0.1 using absinthe.

Yes you can jailbreak your ipad2 with absinthe.. Are you using Mac or windows? I just exchanged my iphone4s from apple store for my daughter it came with 5.0.1 I jailbreak it in less than a minute You must doing something wrong.. It still works.. Are you sure your on 5.0.1? Use Mac like I said it will work Hope this helps you.. Good luck

Hi, I am not new in this stuff :-). I have jailbreaked few iPhones, touch and one iPad 2 (5.0.1) already, but this time it is not possible :-(. I tried both versions of absinthe mac and win without success. The main problems are two - I am not able to start VPN on iPad and I cannot restore 5.0.1. I am on 5.0.1. but I read somewhere that restore could help. I think the problem is that Apple is not allowing restore to 5.0.1 (shift+restore) but only to 5.1. Did you do JB in last 14 days after 5.1 release?

I just jailbroke mine on march 21 2012 thats when I picked up my Iphone4S..No problems ... I would delete absinthe and reinstall it ... I would also reset your router

U're the man. Good to see some progress has been made, long overdue.... I think there should be a law of phones being locked to a carrier. After your term, you should be able to unlock it without any questions asked. At the end of the day it's your phone for which you paid for.

whats the point of downgrade if you can't even unlock the initial baseband? jailbreak only?

Jailbreaking purposes mostly. Basebands cannot be downgraded.

I agree. It is almost 2 years since anyone unlocked a baseband. Just jailbreaking is no fun!!!! C'mon guys, we need an unlock.

Who the hell wants an unlock? Unlocks are no longer needed... Apple already sells unlocked phones... We only need untethered jailbreaks. I really hope nobody ever spend their valuable time looking for unlocks.

Jailbreaking makes the phone AWESOME, unlocking just makes the poor people happy. If you want unlock, PAY FOR IT like many of us did. Factory unlock + Jailbreak + Downgrade possibility = AWESOME I hope an unlock NEVER comes out so that you people start buying factory unlocked.

Ok great. What is it?????
