Default Help with iPad 2 Jailbreak

I've just been given an iPad 2 which is on OS4.3.1. As far as I can work out (Google!) I can't Jailbreak this?

It appears to be impossible to upgrade to 4.3.3 and use Jailbreakme and 4.3.5 can't be Jailbroken.

Am I missing something?

Thanks for your help,

Steve

No you are not missing something, it cannot be done The problem is that there wasn't a JB for iPad2 4.3.1, and you cannot put 4.3.3 on it as Apple has closed the signing window for 4.3.3 and you don't have the shsh 'blobs' to enable you to activate it without talking to Apple's servers.

You could use iOS 5, but i would steer clear as it is not ready and apps may need updating to use it. There have also been reports of it being a bit flaky, which is to be expected as it is a beta OS. It should be out by late September or early October so you could see if there is a JB then

yes i'm fully aware of this, but the op question is he can only do it on 4.3.3 which apple have stopped signing, so therefore he can't jailbreak the ipad 2

and the link jura posted clearly states ipad2 is not covered .


now back in your hole

but its not though is it, look at the link he posted that may i add quoted just to clarify it was pointing to his link.
just incase you missed the fact heres a pic


i was replying to the op question not jailbreaking in general as what the op wants to do cannot be jailbroke on the ipad2 right now.

what part of that don't you understand.

So you come along and post a useless link that doesn't help the op as markus has already cleared the issue up so you can try and prove me wrong.

you sir need to get a life
