Not until it's actually released by the dev team

The reason your restore did not work was because Apple no longer signs 4.3.3 (that's why you got the 3194 error)

I have read that even if you have the 4.3.3 SHSH saved, you WILL NOT be able to downgrade the iPad 2 3G version as the baseband will also need to be verified

BUT,

Since you NEVER upgraded your iPad 2 3G (4.3.3) to 4.3.5, you baseband may not have been upgraded and this may have been just the verification error (error 3194)

SO

Follow these steps to restore back your iPad 2 to 4.3.3 using your SHSH

Restoring/Downgrading iPhone to 4.3.3 using TinyUmbrella

This is for the iPhone, but it should be the same for the iPad 2

Sweet!, glad to be of help.

Added on September 25, 2011, 1:48 amWhere got iOS5 beta jailbreakbale for the iPad 2? The TETHERED JB for iOS 5 beta is available via redsn0w but not for the iPad 2 (heck redsn0w does not even work with the iPad 2)

The ONLY jailbreak for the iPad 2 is via jailbreakme.com developed by comex which REQUIRES you to be on 4.3.3, all other firmware FAIL.

You can only restore to 4.3.3 IF YOU HAVE THE 4.3.3 SHSH saved somewhere. Without it, no dice.

Nope, you only have 4.3.5 saved so there is no way you can downgrade to any firmware lower than that.

Can you try again with TU and go to the advance tab and make sure you check the box that says "Request SHSH from Cydia" and see if the 4.3.3 was ever saved there. Who knows, you might be lucky.

That is normal. Apple no longer signs 4.3.3 and are only signing 4.3.5, that is why Cydia can only get the 4.3.5 SHSH for your iPad. It just means that should anything happen to your iPad, you can only restore it to 4.3.5 so don't screw up the iPad

Added on October 1, 2011, 1:48 amThis is not necessarily true. Even if you are on 4.2.1, if you open Cydia during the time that Apple is still signing 4.3.3, then most likely Cydia will automatically save the SHSH for you.

No. In the first place, it will not work even for iPhone 4 but there are others who strongly believes that it does work and I will not go into the argument.

Second, it WILL NOT WORK for the iPad 2 as it is not vulnerable to the limera1n exploit.

Added on October 1, 2011, 7:32 pmI have read that downgrading the 3G version is problematic as there is not only the SHSH verification by Apple (which can be bypassed if you have your SHSH saved somewhere), but also the baseband verification which is problematic. Say that you accidentally upgraded from 4.3.3 to 4.3.5 but you have your SHSH saved, the upgrade would have also upgraded the baseband of the 3G iPad 2. So when you downgrade, iTunes will see that you have the correct SHSH (since you saved it) BUT it will notice that you baseband does not correspond with the firmware version and some people have been stucked at this point

BUT ......

Since you are still on 4.2.1 and you never upgraded but you do have SHSH saved in Cydia (you opened Cydia during the time Apple was still signing 4.3.3), then there will be no baseband conflict, you can upgrade using the SHSH, and also upgrade the baseband without any issue as the baseband version will be the same as the firmware version.

For iPhone 4, if you are on 4.3.5, redsn0w tethered jailbreak is a straight forward jailbreaking process. Just need to point to 4.3.4 IPSW file.

P/S: Sorry, should have opened the link ... I saw limera1n in the address and immediately thought it was the "Downgrade without SHSh method" page.

My apologies.

Huh? What do you mean? Are you hinting about some piracy or what?

Nope ... No dice with 4.3.5

As mentioned by wiraone, wait until the dev-team sets up jailbreaks.me and port all the necessary jailbreak tool there. Until dev-team notify us that it's ready, we have to wait.

Yes, and you CAN ONLY downgrade if you have your 4.3.3 SHSH SAVED somewhere.

No. Not with the iPad 2. For iPad 1 you can use iFaith as it is vulnerable to the limera1n exploit but for iPad 2, No. You can jailbreak it but if anything happens then the jailbreak will be gone.

Correct. You can jailbreak by visiting http://www.jailbreakme.com and it will jailbreak your iPad 2 but you cannot save your SHSH so if anything happens and you need to restore the iPad 2, you will not be able to downgrade down to 4.3.3

Bro, there's not even a tethered jailbreak for the iPad 2 let alone the an untethered on iOS 5.

Advisable for you to download the latest version of TinyUmbrella. Some TU version are not compatible with the latest firmware.

Ohh by the way, TU will NOT be able to save 4.3.3 anyway as Apple has stopped signing 4.3.3 a loooong time ago. You will need to use iFaith to save it or if you have jailbroken it before, you may want to check if Cydia has it and TU can get the SHSH from Cydia.

@aiman131, please edit your post.

NO PIRACY DISCUSSION PLEASE!!!!!!!!

Nope, no news. Only iPad 1 can be jailbroken (tethered) via redsn0w.

Most likely the repo is down.
