Unfortunately, it is true. If you have a 3G iPad2, you cannot restore iOS 4.3.3 back onto it. If you need to restore, you'll have to use iOS 5.0.1.

Sorry.

It's the way the new iOS 5 has been designed. It changes the baseband of the 3G iPad once you upgrade to iOS 5. So, once you are on that version, you can never go back down, even with SHSH blobs.

However, because the WiFi-only iPads do not have a baseband, this "problem" doesn't affect them.

I don't understand much more of the technical details/reasons. Our resident jail breaking expert, f4780y, can give you all the specifics, plus he's written about it before (I just can't find his post to quote it!).

Suffice it to say, if you have a 3G iPad, do NOT upgrade off of 4.3.3, or you will forevermore lose your ability to downgrade, SHSH blobs or no

You covered it well Marilyn. It can't be done as things stand on a 3G device because the baseband install will fail and there is no way to recover from that error. End of.

I am so very sorry about that as I have the 3G in my iPad. My mail is the biggest hassle with the new IOS 5 - I feel I have snail mail !!
Have not had any problem with Safari as yet. I turned off most things in I Cloud (wonder if this is where my mail is stuffed so it takes so long to download from there?) I was unable to turn off the photo streaming as it told me I would lose all my pictures--do not want that !
Still have data on the iCloud though.
I have tried shutting down with the home and close button--did not speed up the mail :-(
The IOS 5 download was what prompted me to join your group. Could not believe that Apple did not make this work any better than THIS !

Kalau masih dalam 4.3.3 jgn upgrade.saya tak tahu apa problem awak. Jangan guna iTunes reinstall balik JB .IOS5 masih tak stabil untuk JB. Kalau boleh hantar screenshot kamu ke email saya .
