I just uninstalled ovano on iPad 2 jailbroken and have lost my 3G signal. Is it safe to reset network settings and not lose jailbreak. I always look to this forum first for help, finally joined.

Resetting the network settings should not have any effect on your jail break. Want me to try it on mine first? It's an iPad 1.
I can do it as soon as I get home, about an hour.

Was that a yes as to restore network settings?

We'll know as soon as it reboots. I have the Apple logo. I have the changed font for time. I have all the icons in the places that they were before the reset. After I entered my static IP address information, I have Cydia.
I did not lose the jailbreak after resetting the network.
I'd call that a success.
Good luck.

Hi Leelai, I had nothing to lose. I have a good back up and it is an iPad 1. No problem with jail breaking again. And putting my apps back. There is not much on it. I didn't mind being a guinea pig.

As you are Jailbroken, I've moved your thread to our Hacking Section where you will receive a better response.

You probably don't have your network set up with static ip addresses. I chose to set it up that way so I could know who was wanting to use the wireless network since it is on a dialup connection. No sense in squatters slinking by and tying up the phone line.
As for Cydia saving blobs, I think it saves blobs for possible updates for your device when they are available. My iPad 1 had blobs for 5.1 long before I decided to upgrade..
