Anyone use Dev-team's new Untethered 4.2.1 JB?

[OSMac]

Yesterday Dev-team released a untethered 4.2.1 jailbreak, anyone try it on your iPad?

If you were currently on a tethered jb,
did you have to reinstall app store and/or cydia apps?

I was not on a tethered. But the tool produces a custom firmware and makes you put the iPad into DFU mode so you have to "Restore". But then I think you can reapply a backup to get the app store apps back and Cydia has a pkg backup program you can use. I chose to set everything new again.

I tried it out, worked perfectly!

 

[OSMac]

Perfectly from what starting point ?

Anyone try to just Shift Update the firmware on a tethered JB 4.2.1 iPad?

Dont want to risk losing all my apps and related files.

My iPad was already jalbroken with 4.2.1 but I wanted to start over again, so I used pwnage tool 4.2 to create a custom ipsw, then loaded it in iTunes.

I used GreenPoison yesterday on my previously tethered iPad. Worked great and I did not have to reinstall any apps.

The OP is talking about PwnageTool.... with this you have to restore. If you do not want to restore, just use GreenPois0n.

I used it to JB my iPad a couple of days ago, all went well without any issues. Very happy with it

The same here, no issues to report. Everything is working as it should be, I'm happy with it as well.

I just did the jailbreak and everything works great. I do have one issue though, I can't find the Mail, Contacts, Calendar tab in the settings. Any ideas?

I fixed the problem. I use an Poof to hide some apps and when I unhid the my contacts and mail application, it came back. So it wasn't an issue with the jailbreak.

The jailbreak is working just great!
