Upgrade 4.3.5 to iOS5

**HybridParticle** · 10-23-2011, 08:20 AM

Okay.. I need help.. So apple is now signing iOS 5 and I'm at a jailbroken 4.3.5. How do I go about removing the jailbreak to upgrade to iOS 5??(Its untethered if it helps)

ALso from expierience, if I were to just update the firmware in my jaiklbroken state, it would just make my iphone be stuck at the apple logo loading thingy and well, by technological miracles, I managed to get out of it but I'm not risking it on Ios 5 since its a big update and what not. So anyknow know how do I go about doing this??

You on 4.3.5? And ya say it's untethered that can't be correct 4.3.3 was the las untethered they made.

Whoops my bad. you're correct. It's 4.3.3 I was looking at cydia and saw the 4.3.5 at the top and immediately thought that was my current version.

Update iTunes and hit restore to go to iOS 5 and you have to reinstall your tweaks after the jailbreak. Bear in mind , most of the tweaks are not yet compatible with iOS 5 yet.

What about the stuck at apple logo part?? Will I get that?? Also wheres the restore button???

also, I don't have iOS 5 yet. I'm still at 4.3.3

Frozen apple logo have two meaning. If you have a tethered jailbreak and if it reboots, then you tether boot it.
If you install or update cydia and it freezes up at apple logo, then tether boot will not help you.

So I just straightaway update from 4.3.3 to 5 without removing my jailbreak whatsoever??

Sounds risky doesn't it?

If you are very worried about the jailbreak still being on your ipad/iphone/ipod you can restore to the 5.0 software. This will remove your jailbreak completely. Sadly you will also lose all of your data when restoring

be sure to backup vie iTunes!

When you say restore you mean update right??

I'm sorry.. Im really not good with the technical terms

**2k1** · 10-24-2011, 04:15 PM

Updating will restore it.

**iYeow** · 10-24-2011, 10:06 PM

If you update it and do another jailbreak, you may face problems. It must be a restore.

**HybridParticle** · 10-25-2011, 04:25 AM

I do not see the restore button on itunes... when plugged in... only don't download/download only/download and update to ios 5

**2k1** · 10-25-2011, 04:32 AM

Click on the left side should say iPhone or whatever ya named it. When ya do should have ya info up top and then you should see the restore button

Do i need to do the shift alt thing?? and have the ios 5 ipsw??

**iYeow** · 10-25-2011, 10:45 PM

Run itunes, connect your iphone > you hear a beep > iphone connected > highlight your iphone name on the left side > On top > click on Summary > now you should see the Restore button
Shift key + restore will let you browse to your firmware.

I strongly recommend staying on 5.0 until unteathered is out but there is a teathered and semi teathered jailbreak if you want and for the backup problem use pkgbackup
