Tips, as I mentioned above, What I did was to backup my iPad 2, restore it to factory fresh condition, set it up as a new iPad (don't restore the backup yet), run Absinthe to jailbreak and once the jailbreak is successful, restore back my Backup. Restoring from backup wont lose the jailbreak?

You won't loose you jailbreak by performing the task. Then if wanna warranty claim how to remove the jailbreak if restore doesnt remove it?

I am still "was-was" bout jailbreaking.. I mean, I dont want to do a clean restore.. This post has been edited by Boy96: Jan 23 2012, 05:14 PM

That's a tripod. Senior Member 3,848 posts Joined: Dec 2009 From: Ampang	QUOTE(azraeil @ Jan 23 2012, 06:14 PM) 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
