    You can wait for Chronic Dev team to release an updated version of Absinthe 2.0, which includes support for the revised iOS 5.1.1 file.Or you can tap on the shift key (Windows) or option key (Mac) and click on the Restore button in iTunes, which will give you an option to select the iOS 5.1.1 9b206 firmware file that you've downloaded to downgrade back to it.Please remember to take a backup to iCloud and iTunes so you can restore it back from the latest backup.

    Rename the file extension to .ipsw, for some reason windowns converts it to a zip or rar file.

    Here is how to downgrade it step by step:1)Download 5.1.1 9b206 from http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/ (If you use Internet Explorer you will have to change the file extencion from .zip to .ipsw2)Then open itunes with your iphone conected and hold shift and click restore.3)Then search for the downloaded .ipsw file and restore it4)Enjoy it ;-) btw this will work till apple stops signing the 5.1.1 9b206 ipsw so if i were you I would do it fast :),and lastly sorry for my bad english cuz im from PUERTO RICO :D... Hope this helps!!

    Download the older version of 5.1.1 and jailbreak like normal. I don't know where you could get the older version though...

    Does anyone know if Apple keeps on signing 5.1.1 build 906? I've already downloaded 906 restore but I don't want to try to upgrade to 5.1.1_908 because I don't want to lose JB on my iphone 4 (5.0.1).

    I just Restore my iphone yeaterday and the new revised update really is espectacular. I was having trouble with performance and now it runs smoothly, wi-fi had issues now all gone, safari is faster than ever, coverflow is much fluid, the animation runs more fluidly than it did since tbe 5.0 update. The camera has more stability, the hiccups it had when switching app windows is gone, multitasking (app switching cause this aint multitasking) is more reliable, email work much better, apps dont crash (98% of the times, thats an improvement), the battery issue is still there so im convince is hardware that doesnt play well with 5.0 update. Im still testing so ill keep you updated.
