Is there a way to make the entire long jailbreak process begin again? Running Absinthe again (see my reasons for wanting to below) just runs the short "looks like you tried to jailbreak and failed" process. When the "Recovery" is complete, I still don't have the Absinthe Web clip I deleted...I accidentally deleted my Web clip for Absinthe, in a fit of troubleshooting the "connection failed" errors of earlier this afternoon. Re-running the Absinthe application doesn't fill it back in on my iPhone. I was hoping that using Safari to get to greenpois0n would jumpstart the restart process (VPN isn't making my phone restart), but haven't had any luck getting my phone to restart. How can I finish up the jailbreak process? The long part of the Absinthe jailbreak install went fine. Thanks!

Nothing positive or informative to add huh?

It worked for me but after I installed a app and reboot my phone it won't come back on, it's in the loading screen it keep vibrating and won't leave that screen what to do? Please help

Same here

Have had the white screen and "Error establishing a database connection" error more than 50 times (no exaggeration). I've tried toggling on VPN (I have never set up VPN so it's the only configuration in there) and waiting out the error until it reboots but it never does. So I tried rebooting it manually but that doesn't work either.. I have tried the above mentioned steps after disabling the passcode too. Also tried restoring my phone once to redo the jailbreak but that didn't work either. Might restore and redo jailbreak tomorrow if it still doesn't work. I give up for today and will continue tomorrow...
-
And now (for the second time today) I don't get an error or white screen when opening Absinthe... and it doesn't open Cydia either.. I just get the greenpoison website opened up inside the app.

Dev Team is awesome. Took a few tries, but the trouble shooting tips on here did the trick. MyWi 5 doesn't work in the WiFi mode but it does work thru bluetooth. I'm sure now that the jailbreak is out they'll give us an update.

I am having the same issue. I got service back temporarily by reinstalling mobile substrate in Cydia. It lasted for about a minute. I'm on Verizon, if it matters at all

greenpoison for windows users please... how long still to waill for the release??

You want to rerun the entire process? If so, restore your iPhone (make sure you have a recent backup for that). If you had iOS 5.0 or iOS 5.0.1 (previous build) and you don't want to update then get a previous build from here and hold the alt button, click restore and select the file you downloaded. It will then first restore to factory settings and in iTunes you can then restore from your backup. Afterwards you can retry the entire jailbreaking process. Try disabling the passcode from the beginning of the process.

i had the same problem ..mac pro.i just restarted in safe mode and tried it and it worked right away....
-
How will I know when it worked? It will reboot from the white screen?

Just to let you know, Absinthe (the update) worked flawlessly, no problems with the iphoto camera roll either... It was totally worth the wait and YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME !!!!! Somebody with a lot of money should hire you (but then that would stifle your creative freedom I suppose) Keep up the GREAT work !!!

Same thing. Ive tried everything. I mean everything.
