Hi,

I have iPad2 iOS 5.0.1 jail broken by absinthe. But I have some problems like Cydia is not working since few days...
My question is, can I remove the current jailbreak and jailbreak again without restoring my iOS?? And losing data and apps????
Hope anyone can help?

No, it is not possible with an iPad2. The only way for you to remove the jailbreak is to restore the iPad.

When you restore it, you will have to install iOS 5.1, which is not jail breakable on the iPad2 at this time. It doesn't matter if you have SHSH blobs or not. They work differently now - and are not effective for the iPad2.

Apple has stopped signing the iOS 5.0.1 so no choice except to restore to 5.1

I am still on 5.0.1. If I save SHSH, then is it possible to restore to same 5.0.1 and jailbreak again???

From your signature you are using iPad2, so the answer to your post is no.
Read the post directly above your from Marilyn that have a link to a more detailed explanation about SHSH blobs.

It was not possible to restore, because apple don't let restore to 5.0.1 again. You have to update to 5.1.1
