Using an iPod touch 4g, iOS 6... I was hoping that upgrading would speed up my slowing down device which was jailbroken, but with all this new lag and the barely working App Store I want to go back...

Is it possible to go back to iOS 5.1.1?

Whoever said this update should be released to the public without fixing everything should get sent to prison for sucking at life

Apple is no longer signing certificates for iOS 5.1.1. It is impossible to downgrade to iOS 5.1.1 unless you have your blobs backed up.

There is a possible light at the end of the tunnel.

Cydia itself might have backed up your SHSH blobs for every firmware that you actually accessed Cydia from. If your device was jailbroken on 5.1.1 and you ever opened up Cydia, it probably backed up your SHSHs for you. To check, you can download TinyUmbrella, connect your iPod, select it, and go under the Advanced tab. Under that tab there should be a toggle for "Request SHSH from Cydia." Check that toggle and click Save SHSH in the top-right corner of the application. If Cydia did back-up your SHSH blobs, TinyUmbrella will download them from Cydia's servers and you'll be able to restore to the appropriate firmware as your device is to the limera1n exploit, as it has an A4 processor.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
