Seas0npass downloads 4.3 8F455 but ATV2 ends up with 4.4.4

Seasopass says it is downloading iOS 4.3 - 8F455, does it’s magic and after answering “YES” to auto-iTunes install and setting the AT2 in DFU-mode, ITunes installs firmware just fine.

But after connecting to my TV, the AT2 ends up with v.4.4.4.

Anybody tried this before ? Did it twice, just to make sure.

Seasonpass is the latest version according to it’s own version check.

Try manually selecting the ipsw - i.e. shift > create IPSW and browsing for the 4.3 one? Might work.

Just tried it, but ended up with iTunes error 1611. Now retrying your suggestion, just to make sure tx :slight_smile:

Good luck!

This time i ended up with iTunes error 20. But 3rd time lucky, except now the TV is occupied - waiting for commercial break to test ATV2.

 

Well that got the ATV2 back to the original 8F455, but a new try with Seas0nPasss and iTunes returned 1611 again.

Wonder if the “Auto upgrade” in Itunes just  misses the jailbroken ipsw and just hits “enter” on “upgrade” in iTunes ?

Trying useing a newer PC or Laptop i found my desk pc will not work with out errors showing everytime i tried to install  iOS 4.3 - 8F455

I used the same usb cable on my son’s laptop it installed fine every time.

I Found that some Older pc desktops do output  enough power to enable the usb to work at it’s best haveing tried 2 different old desktop pc’s

 

iREB-r4 ( Google it ) is good for putting the Apple TV into DFU Mode first

 

 

I did actually get the ATV2 upgraded to 4.4.4, so it must have been in DFU-mode.

I ended up with a plethora of 1611, 20, 21 errors. So will give it a try on another laptop. Only problem : This is a one-W7-laptop household…

Finally made it : iREB4 did the trick first time over. 

First iREB4 to set DFU mode, then a restore from iTunes with SHIFT+Restore the jailbroken ipsw. Worked flawlessly.

Same laptop, same cable, same W7, same Seas0nPass jailbroken 4.3 8F455 ipsw.
