[1million]

I was hoping this could/would be possible. I'm so glad it is. I'm glad I saved my Blobs when I first JB 5.0.1.

Successfully downgraded from 5.1 to 5.0.1 (it actually upgrades to 5.1.1 first and then downgrades to 5.0.1 due to baseband change)

After 2 long months on 4.3.3 I am back on 5.0.1 job

Also I managed to install the 5.1 versions of apps with the trick that took my job away.

Sooooooo happy

I am back, too! It's great. You don't mean to say that you messed with the .plist again?!?!

Rush. Did you need shah blobs?

How did you do it? My Pages, Numbers and iPhoto didn't reinstall because they are for 5.1 I really would like them back but I don't want to gork my jail break again.

Cheers, Dan

I followed the same process of amending the plots version file. But once you reinstall your 5.1 apps, you must:
1. Change the plist file back to 5.0.1
2. Reboot the iPad
3. Check on "about" that the iPad effectively recognises you are on 5.0.1
4. Only then keep using your iPad.

Pls let me know if you need more help.

Chers,
G

Yes, blobs are a MUST.

Right. I have a question and I am sorry if I'm asking in the wrong place. I bought my first ever IPad 2 , 8 weeks ago. A5, Wi fi only. The only blob I was able to save was for 5.1. As apple were no longer signing earlier ones. Question is, with all the work going on at the minute by Pod etc. Is anyone currently working on a JB which I will be able to use? I'm a newb and all this activity is really starting to confuse me. Appreciate anyone's feedback.
