Read the Macrumor rules you agreed to abide by when you registered, specifically the rule that forbids discussing stealing apps.

yeah so now im stuck how do you fix it?

Restore from itunes. If itunes doesn't see it, hard reset (hold down home + power button), then go into DFU, then restore.

Hi! Please I need help!

Oh boy the last time I did that on a jailbroken device I almost bricked it. Took me a few days of messing around with it to restore it .... Granted this was with an iPhone 3GS but still..... I would save your shsh and do a restore then re-jailbreak again. Stay away from the erase contents button while jailbroken.

I did that to my 3gs and now I dont know how to fix it! I have tinyumbrella and i tried to recover it but nothing happens! pleasee help me

Just Reset Network settings. My message is too short it says 123

Reset network settings

wish i would've seen this thread before i did what i just did, or asked some questions like ts did at least. Anyway, here's my situation:

I also want to sell my ipad 2. My ipad 2 was not jailbroken, so i went ahead and did the jb with absinthe, thinking it would completely wipe my ipad and it would be factory fresh with the jb in place upon completion. When it rebooted, i noticed the jb took effect but all my old settings, etc., were still there. So i then proceeded to erase all content and settings. My ipad rebooted to factory settings, but with the cydia icon still there. Except, when i click on the cydia app, it opens for a split second and closes. I also can't jb it again because absinthe says it already is jailbroken.

Help. What do i do? I want to restore this to factory 5.0.1 settings, with a jailbreak, for sale. Can i get there from where i am currently? Got ahead of myself, screwed up...
