Brand new PW5 is on 5.14.0.1. Is it possible to get it to 5.14.2 then jailbreak?

Is there a way to update to 5.14.2 and not the latest unbreakable firmware?

Or should I just jailbreak as-is?

Sorry, I see now that I need to get it to 5.14.1.1 to jailbreak.

Is there a reputable source for older firmware files? All I've found is a french site called touslesdrivers.

You can get them from amazon.

Read this (short) thread:

You will have to alter the details.

Also, do a post search of this forum on "firmwaredownloads" (no speces) and read those posts.
