Hi everyone I just got my 64gb 3g ipad 2 here in Dubai prices here are good, I paid about £590 it came with screen and non original cover.

IOS is on 4.3.3 I jailbroke it and tweaked the hell out of it, including retinapad and whatsapp (used a youtube guide for that).

At first I was pissed with it as it would not update carriers on itunes and without that I could not use a 3g sim, I suspected that a restore would helo but that was a no go as apple is now pushing 4.3.5!!! in the end I fixed that by using ifile on a friends ipad to copy his carrier bundles to mine and it luckily worked!

Anyways my question for you guys is

Is it still possible to save 4.3.3 blobs on ipad 2 as that's the firmware preinstalled and as we all know apple has stopped signing it.

Something like Ifaith sounded good to extract the blobs but I read 1.1 won't work as it does not use the limerain exploit.

I also tried Ish**** and Tiny Umbrella anyone know how to do it?

No, sorry, there is no way to save your SHSH for 4.3.3.

worth a bump, although i am not trying to bump this.

reason...i just wanna congratulate you on your first post, as i am sure you did a little bit of research and kinda know a little bit of what you are doing, and did not come in here asking questions on how to do this and how to do that, when its already available and answered. Most people that join this forum, should not come on here and think that whatever they are asking, is the first question in that nature, and should atleast try their best to find out, cause deep down inside they do have belief that is was asked before, and too lazy to find out.

The few of us, and there is a lot, are here to answer and help those that is not trendy with their devices, but a quick search before would not hurt.

example: people come on here and ask stuff that is in that little guide/start up manual that came in the box with their device.


your question on the other hand, you knew the answer, and i am gonna guess, you wanna see if a genius on here have a workaround or knew something different.

Hey mate, thank you for your kind words I always do my research and usually only ask a question if I feel I have run out of options, I wanted an iPad 2 ever since they came out but refused to get one till the jailbreak came out, mainly because I love all the legal Cydia tweaks out there, apple have done well from me, I got my mum, wife and brothers an iPhone 4 and myself an iPad as well. Plus I spend a pretty penny in the app store.

Your right I kinda new the answer but as things on the iOS hacking scene change quicker than the price of ram, I was hoping within a week someone will find a way round it and hopefully even find a boot rom exploit

I dread having to do a restore and loosing my get out jail free pad, I'm scared like others are that we are approaching the end of jail breaking but then again I suppose as apple release new firmware then more holes are there to find.

I read something about comex being are best bet, hope he can pull it off again for iOS 5 general release.

So if anyone reading does hear even a rumour of a way to do it please come and let me know.

You can be sure it will be all over the forums mate. That's why we are here...

Open up cydia and see if your 4.3.3 blobs were saved.

Heres a screenie of my cydia. As you can see, cydia has my 4.3.3 and 4.3.4 blobs.

Good point man, I managed to skip over the bit where he is jailbroken already. My bad.

Chances are Cydia saved you. You should check.

Just checked it only has 4.3.4
