Cant jailbreak, Itunes restores

Hi,

When I jailbreak i must connect my atv2 to my PC. Itunes opens and after a while everything looks oke. I connect ATV2 to my TV and the light on the ATV2 starts flashing rapidly and on the tv sceen a picture appears that states that i must connet my ATV2 on my PC. Then Itunes recovers or something and puts back the old, not jailbreak/software but the official software back.

Can anybody help? Many thx in advance

It sounds as if you are not doing the tethered boot stage described in http://support.firecore.com/entries/387605-jailbreaking-101-seas0npass.   This is required as the current jailbreak for 5.0 firmware is ‘tethered’.

This is required any time the ATV2 loses power or does a hard reset.   When/if an untethered jailbreak becomes available then this need will then be removed.

 

I donwloaded this file in the above mentioned link but I had already this version. So I have the same question, can anybody help me? If i cannot jailbreak i wasted 40 dollars… Please help!

What has downloading a file go to do with the link I provided?    I was talking about the tethered boot stage that is mentioned in that document?

oke, sorry about that. I dont know what you mean by Thethering. Do you know what I must do?

many thx in advance

Look at the document I linked to.    Following the section on doing the jailbreak there is a section on doing a tethered boot.   The lead in text to that section says that this is only required for some jailbreaks - but the current jailbreak of 5.0 firmware is one that needs it.

YES! THANK YOU!

Generally, Tethering is the process of using a cell phone or smartphone as a modem for a personal computer. When connect ATV2 to TV, The problem is with either TV connection and the current version of jailbreak software, Try to use the latest version of jailbreak software.
