Seas0npass keeps crashing once my AppleTV is in DFU

Legacy Seas0nPass
1

Hey,
After accidentaly updating to 5.2.1 I tried jailbreaking my AppleTV again, but no matter what I do, Seas0npass keeps crashing once my Apple TV is in DFU mode.

I tried 4 different computers (3 macs and one pc) all with different operating systems, but I always get the same thing. I read somewhere that its supposed to work when you put your AppleTV in DFU mode before starting the process in Seas0npass, but that didnt work either. I really don’t care if the Jailbreak is tethered or untethered since its almost always turned on, I just want it to be jailbroken again. Any help would be really appreciated.

Hi Andrew.g..  Have a look at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXvOJAH9KAo

I’m not saying you haven’t already done it this way, but at least you can rule it out :slight_smile:

Hey Andrew,

 

I am having the same problem.

I was having problems with my jailbroken ATV - it became unstable and crashing a lot (and 'lots of script errors). I tried to rejailbreak it but it looked like it bricked (all black)…so, as a last resort, I restored it and it upgraded to 5.2.1.
Now,  With the updated Seas0npasses (including the beta) – once it goes into dfu, Seas0npass crashes.  I to have tried all variations of when to plug in and pull out the usb  and/ or power cord and I have put it into dfu before starting Seas0npass and it still crashes… I have even opened itunes before Seas0npass and had it in dfu, but the itunes shut down and the Seas0npass… crashed.

What’s really strange is if I use the old Seas0npass 0.8.9 (665) - the one I did my original jailbreak with before i updated to 5.2.1 - I can do everything but restore (with the prompt “apple tv could not be restored this device isn’t eligible for the requested build”), so I know it might be possible.

Tell me if you had any luck jailbreaking your ATV… and if anyone else has any advice, it would be greatly appreciated.
