It's was connected to a network for months, and hasn't received an OTA update. I've got it in airplane mode now though, just in case.
I looked at both directions for 5.4 jailbreak thread and the <5.8.8 thread.
Odd thing though, I don't have update.bin.tmp.partial, a jailbreak file in my /documents directory, or a /mrpackages directory.
I'm guessing from what I've read I just need to factory reset my device and then downgrade to 5.4.3.2 (by not ejecting/disconnecting before restarting) and proceed with the 5.4.3.2 jailbreak instructions?
Also, is there anything odd about not getting an OTA? Is there anything worth testing or pulling from my device before I factory reset? |
Follow the <5.8.8 directions, completely, exactly as written.
They will direct you to another thread at the proper point and remind you to return.
Why not try the "test" package attached to the <5.8.8 post?
It is not unusual for older devices to fail to update OTA - Don't complain, its a feature not a bug.
