As of march 24th2013 Apple has stopped signing out all the versions of appletv2
5.02.5.1.1 and the 5.2.I just downgraded last week all my apple TV to 5.02 which is awesome ios,its the same as the 5.1.1 on my 4s.
I bought an apple tv2 it came with a 5.1.1 like a dumb ass I upgraded to 5.2.1

pissed me off ..
So there is no way you can downgrade unless you saves ur ssh blobs

I’m in the same boat, does this mean we can’t go back?

And what if I didn’t save the old version (4.4.4) of firmware? My APTV2 has automaticly updated firmware to newest version 5.xx. I cannot downgrade…? I don’ like to install unthetered soft.

@8cdd8e7b5316cf7fd491e19175960866:disqus released PLEX plug in is not stable on 4.4.4. You have to use 0.9 beta release which works with 4.4.4. You could have just SSH into crashed ATV2 and removed PLEX plugin.
apt-get remove com.plex.client-plugin
rm -rf /Applications/AppleTV.app/Appliances/PLEX.frappliance
rm -rf /Applications/Lowtide.app/Appliances/PLEX.frappliance
rm /User/Library/Preferences/com.plex.client-plugin.plist
apt-get update
apt-get install com.plex.client-plugin=0.0.9.0.0-312c11b0

Screwed due to the fact SHSH Blobs were not save prior. I’ve done it plenty of times on iPhones, iPods, & iPads. Screwed myself on the ATV2 when I forgot to do so. I jail broke it and got to the point of installing Plex which crashed my ATV2. I could not restore OS back to 4.4.4. Instead I had to upgrade to Apple’s most recent iOS for ATV2…5.1.

I’m going to wait for untethered jailbreak for 5.1. Hopefully my ATV3 can be done eventually.
