Buggered, and not in a hot way...

    I picked up imame4all during the brief window over Christmas when it became available on itunes.
    This was great news.
    I procured many files to test on this and popped them onto the unJB'd Ipad2 via iexplorer and they all seemed to work flawlessly.
    This was even better news.
    My 40th is approachine and my better half announced, just yesterday, that she went out on a limb and bought me an icade!
    This was some of the greatest news of all time!
    The I went to check out the compatibility of the imame4all and icade by having a gander at the app....
    It was gone!
    No sign on the Ipad2 at all!
    She had deleted it in error the previous day.
    And, of course, the app itself was withdrawn from itunes within a day or so of going up!
    This is very, very bad news...
    I hadn't synced the ipad2 to anything, cloud, itunes, nothing, so it seems I have no way whatsoever of recovering the app.

    I went to see if I could JB the ipad but, given my recent run of luck, ios 5.0.1 is, as yet, not supported on an ipad2, so no Cydia way of getting the software onto the ipad2.


    Anyone got any ideas?
    Or do I just sit on my hands, waiting for the JB to turn up?
    I am told it's only around the corner, but, well, I hate waiting!

    That's great, if you could give me a walkthrough I'll do it myself later as well.
    Looks, well, interesting tbh, certainly I'll have to source xcode from somewhere.

    Forget that, I've no Mac, arse!

    You could run it on a virtual machine

    I'm going to follow this tutorial

    Scratch that, you need a developer account to transfer it to the iPad, sorry, you didn't on older firmwares 3.x.x

    I was thinking I may be able to downgrade the firmware back to pre-ios5 days, but I don't believe this device was ever JB'd before, and so no way to access the shsh blobs.

    Is there a way to check?
