Shift + restore and choose the firmware file that you have downloaded will wipe clean your iPad (Clean restore) and re-install the iOS

There is no Shifit + Update

Restore (without pressing Shift) does the same thing (Clean Restore) but iTunes will download the firmware file (which is prone to disconnection) that is why people recommend you do a Shift + restore as you download the firmware file outside of iTunes so you don't need to worry about iTunes failing to download the file.

Supposedly you don't have to do a clean restore with Absinthe but as I mentioned, a lot of users are reporting long wait times due to the fact that Absinthe uses the Backup/Restore exploit so the bigger your existing Backup, the longer it will take for the jailbreak process to finish.

Alamak, need to download 5.0.1 which the file is very huge..

But when iOS 5 first came out, I downloaded iOS 5 from Apple website, then hit Shift+Update to update my iPad from 4.3.5 to 5.0

Yes. Make sure after you update you setup the iPad as a new iPad. Then you jailbreak using Absinthe. Then after the jailbreak is successful, restore your backup.

I manage to restore my settings (Mail etc etc) but I had to re-sync all my apps. Dunno what happened. Did not have that problem with my iPhone.

Go to your iTunes Preferences and under the Devices Tab, it should have a list of your Backup. Check the time of the backup before your restore and that's the one you should choose when you are restoring your backup.

Absinthe will create a backup of your iPad 2 and it will be an empty Backup so choose an earlier backup file.

You don't restore from backup, your restore the Firmware which will wipe clean your iPad 2 (including the jailbreak) and re-install the OS.

1. Yes

2. Since you're updating your iPad means your backup will saved in the pc/Mac which you performing the task, therefore if you change to another pc you will lose your backup.

How do we scroll a page within a page? For example u search a user posts and if the post shown is long I need to scroll down, I know it's possible as I accidentally did it but kept trying just zoom, unzoom.

Also how do I remove the spelling recommendation function, it's annoying.

Apparently the battery life for ios 5.0.1 is not as good as when it is in 4.3.3... Battery drain pretty quick with just wifi on.

No problem syncing back from itunes after jb. make sure you're using itunes 10.5.3. to restore your data. right click on device (left panel) and select "Restore from backup" can liao. use on PC ok smile.gif

if you want to have multiple users for itunes on same pc, just create new user in control panel for windows

NO. If your iPad 2 is already jailbroken, the system files would have been moved by the process. If you do the erase all content and settings, the iPad 2 will be stuck in the Apple Loop.

If you need to erase everything in the iPad, do a Shift + restore.
