What part of you can't do that do you not believe?
When I write:

Will this jail break work on my current firmware?
If the third field of your firmware version number: 5.8.7.0.1 is larger than 7 this jail break will not work on your device.
That means it will not work on: 5.8.8, 5.8.9, 5.8.10, ..., 5.8.99999999.
Please do not even think of asking if this message still means what is written. The message is kept current.
I really, truly mean it.
You need read no further in that post or in that thread.
Of course you are welcome to try, and if you can figure out a way to install an older firmware on a device running 5.8.10 (without a serial port connection), we would like to know how you did it.

The sticky jail break index thread certainly does mention a serial port jail break.
