Jailbreak New iPad - Help Requested

[TwoJax]

Okay, I'm no newbie but I am stumped on this. Just got a new iPad 1. It came loaded with 3.2.2 (blow out pricing at Verizon). From all my reading, I can't jb this firm version. So, I dl'd the iPad 1,1 4.2.1.ipsw file so I could utilize the Greenp0is0n app (which, I gather 'used to' work on 3.2.2 but now requires 4.2.1). I shift-click (PC) to install that and Apple won't let me (natch, cuz it isn't 4.3.1). Since this is new, with unbreakable current firmware, I have no shsh blobs I can reference saved. So, changing the hostfile won't help me as there is nothing a cydia I can retrieve.

Question, in short, what do I need to do to jb this?

You cannot use 4.2.1 because the signing window for that is closed. You're going to have to just wait until a 4.3/4.3.1 jailbreak is released.

I was afraid that was going to be the answer. Thanks for the reply.

If anyone knows anything different, feel free to let me know...like maybe how to jb 3.2.2 at this late stage.

Who said you can't jailbreak 3.2.2? I thought that could be jailbroken with limera1n or greenpois0n.

You have a very limited window, see this thread https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1124940/
You need to run TinyUmbrella Now! Save your 4.3 blobs now...

Tethered jailbreak

You can use a tethered JB on 4.3.1 on iPad, that's what I have and it works great with all my fav tweaks.... here is a link http://www.redmondpie.com/jailbreak...ipod-touch-using-sn0wbreeze-2.4-how-to-guide/

can run tiny umbrella on an ipad 2. I tried to save shsh blobs and nothing happens. I did this on my iphoen last month and it worked fine

You can ONLY do a tethered jailbreak on 4.3 (or 4.3.1) currently.. as someone has stated here..

And only on iPad 1 NOT iPad 2, correct?

Get the latest version of TinyUmbrella. It needs to be updated each time a new firmware is released.

One would think he'd get the idea when it pops up and says "New Version Available, Please UPDATE NOW" whenever it loads. LOL, but alas, never OVERestimate people, hehe

I'm not 100% sure on that..
