    Success. Kept getting the error. Erased and reset...but just kept on failing. I had updated to 5.1.1 via wifi. So I did a complete restore to 5.1.1. And it was a breeze. So if you are having problems. Backup. Do complete Restore. Thanks POD2G

    When you finish the jailbreak, you click on the absinthe icon in your springboard. That adds cydia to your springboard.

    Search for Cydia using Spotlight, it may not be on the first Home screen page.

    Tried 5 times on an iPad 2 Wi-Fi 5.1.1. Same as everyone else, it hangs and then tells me to "retry." I'm not a techie, so I don't know what's meant by "turn off passcode lock" or "pins." What can I do?

    I don't believe your claim. If I got $500 I would spend them on another phone. Dude, be real!

    On iPad 1G I kept getting the error after the "Waiting to complete" message, so I did:- Downloaded the 5.1.1 iPad 1G firmware- Updated to the downloaded firmware (Shift + restore in iTunes then select the file)- Selected "Configure as new iPad" on the iPad screen- Jailbreak tethered with redsnow- Installed from Cydia the "Rocky Racoon 5.1.1 Untether" package- Reboot - Update from backup- Sync apps
