    Yes - I made a very serious mistake here and I apologise most profusely. You were quite correct the 'no downgrading' applies only to 3G models. I'm very sorry to have misled you so badly. I will go and do a penance and use a Samsung Galaxy Tablet for a day.....

    There is a fundamental difference in the so-called baseband part of the iPad2 with 3G.

    It wasn't THAT big a mistake, Tim! You're forgiven - no need to punish yourself!

    To be clear, he didn't. It is not possible now the 4.3.5 signing window is closed.

    Hi Rudy,great to see you've done this downgrade process.
    I've recently bought my iPad 2(wifi 16GB White) with iOS 5 installed out of the box,no previous version shsh backup - which according to my knowledge,is essential for downgrading iOS devices to older iOS version,such as iOS 4.3.3.
    I've heard many of my friends say there's no way to downgrade to iOS 4.X without backup shsh files,and I'm really disappointed.
    While now you've done this,I just wonder if this also works for me,. Did you back up your shsh file(at least once) before upgrading to iOS 5?
    Thanks,
    Jack

    Hi Jack!

    Unfortunately for you, yes I (unknowingly) did.
    At the moment of startting this post I was confused about some errors that iTunes gave me while downgrading.
    My 4.3.3 SHSH blobs were saved by Cydia once my iPad was jailbroken earlier.

    But your iPad is on iOS 5? Lucky for you, it isn't 5.0.1.
    Mine is on iOS 5 now too, waiting for the upcoming jailbreak. Hopefully it comes soon!
