I have an iPad 2 32GB Wifi only that is stucked on Recovery Mode. I tried the 15 s hold of both HOme and power. After 15 s the apple icon shows up then goes straight to asking me to connect Itunes and Ipad.

The story: I did jailbreak it on 4.3.3., Tiny umbrella won't save ssh.
Now i just want it to work .
It is asking me to restore. If i restore with itunes would it go to the latest firmware (5.1.1)? Would i even be allowed to restore to the latest firmware with itunes, if already jailbreak. How do i clean the ipad from scratch . I don't mind going to the latest firmware

If there is a setting called 'Reset to Factory Mode' or something like that, choose that setting. You still need to hook it up to iTunes, but resetting it to factory mode for some reason restores your iPad. If it doesn't for some reason, use your iCloud.

As I said,if you follow the directions exactly,your iPad will be restored to the latest version of iOs,in this case iOS 5.1.1.

You can only restore to 4.3.3 on your wifi iPad2 IF you have saved SHSH Blobs for 4.3.3 in TinyUmbrella or Cydia. If you do, use this tutorial - http://www.ipadforums.net/jailbreak...-your-ipad-using-tinyumbrella-shsh-blobs.html

Then that's all you can install, sorry. it's very important to save your SHSH blobs as you go. You can't get old ones after Apple stop providing them.
