Downgrading ipad from 3.2.2

It's very frustrating isnt't? Read lot's of tutorials and all with no luck. I am afraid that we must wait till the Dev Team release a new Jailbrek.. Hopefully they don't wait till the release of the iOS4 for iPad!!
 
I can appreciate the level of frustration of those not able to downgrade. To me it goes beyond frustration though, it makes me feel like Apple has become far too arrogant.

Imagine if you will that Microsoft released an update that made it so that only MS software or it's affiliate software would run on your PC. People would be outraged!

As an owner of an Apple product you have every right to jailbreak it - the courts have given the green light on it so what gives hey!?

Bingo!!!!
 
Apple, apple, apple.

Apple is really arrogant and prideful about their products and it causes problems. Sure their stuff is almost the best available to the common person, but really, if people payed $500+ for their iPad then dangit! Let them hack it!:ipad-back:
 
Ok, I am crazy: Sold my iPad that I bought last saturday, to buy a new one with firmware: 3.2.1.

Cost me about 50 Euro's (+/- 63 dollar)..

Why I doing this.. It's just like a addiction.. Thank you Steve Jobs :(
 
im one of the lucky one?

I just downgraded from 3.2.2 to 3.2.1 last week with no problem using tiny umbrella, and after reading this past post, im really sorry to those people that getting errors or couldnt downgraded anymore. i think i wouldnt own an ipad if i cant jailbreak em. well hopefully they will have the solution for this.
 
Hello, I just want to make sure of one thing. So if I just purchased my iPad yesterday and it came with firmware 3.2.2 already on it, would this still work? Because I know in the instructions for the downgrade it says it's only for users who have backed up their SHSH. Now obviously I haven't because I just got my iPad, but I saw a bunch of people saying it worked without the whole backup SHSH thing. Would I be able to perform this downgrade since I haven't even been on firmware 3.2.1 or anything besides 3.2.2 for that matter? Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!!

I think you are as everyone else is with 3.22 ..piss paddle, turd canoe and crap stream. Lyc0s and myself had 3.22 and for some reason last week it worked for us but this week people don't seem to be able to make it work unless they had their ssh blobs previously saved. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
 
It didnt work for me..!!!

I just tried to "save my shsh" with the tinyumbrella software but all I got is :

.................................Asking CYDIA for SHSH blobs for iPad3G 3.2.1 (7B405)...
08/24/2010 15:00:59.751 This device isn't eligible for the requested build. 08/24/2010 15:00:59.764 CYDIA DOES NOT HAVE YOUR SHSH FOR iPad3G 3.2.1 (7B405) THERE IS NO WAY FOR YOU TO GET THEM. SORRY. YOU ARE JUST TOO LATE.

I dont know why it doesnt work, too bad for me, can anyone help me? :(

Regards..:confused:
 
Strange....I am in admin mode and I DID edit hosts file....but this is what I get in umbrella:

"08/24/2010 18:16:41.860 NOT running as administrator OR your hosts file is not editable - Cannot listen on port 80! TSS Server will not work!"

WTF?
 
Nevermind....was running from WITHIN the dmg file. DOH!!!

Simon I think that you could refine your topic a bit by doing the following:

1.) Explain that your original instructions are WINDOWS instructions....NOT mac.
2.) You do not mention WHERE to put the files needed ( example being that you are not to run from within the DMG file, where to put the firmware file so that iTunes can see it, etc )

Just some helpful advice. ;)

Here are some changes that you should include.

1.) On MAC you do not Shift click....you ALT-Click.
2.) When you do that....iTunes asks you where is the firmware file. Direct it to that and there ya go.
3.) Run Umbrella OUT of the DMG file on MAC....otherwise the server will NOT start.

Following those steps I am BACK!!!!!!! Woot!!!!!! 3.2.1 and jailbroken.
