I messed up...

I wasn't thinking and I updated the ATV2 software... So I lost my jailbreak.

That was the hub of my entire living room... I can't watch TV I can't do anything.

Is there anything available?
 
Yes, I updated mine to iOS 5 at the weekend and wanted to go back to the old jail broken firmware so I just reused the current 4.3 - 8F455 version of seas0npass and it worked ok. Give it a try.

How is that possible without saving SHSH blobs (which I do routinely now)? Just curious.... is Apple not signing 4.3 updates for ATV2 currently? That would be weird.
 
No idea, all I know is that my ATV2 was jail broken on 4.3 using seas0npass, I updated to ios5(4.4) at the weekend, didn't like it so I re-ran seas0npass and it's now back to jailbroken 4.3 and I'm using Plex once again.

Edit:-

Yep, just to make sure I'm not losing my mind, I just upgraded to iOS5(software version 4.4) again and then downgraded back to jailbroken 4.3 using seas0npass with no problems. So, for the time being at least, it's possible to downgrade.

Thank god!

Thanks for your help, I will do that tonight!

I want airplay mirroring but not at the cost of not being able to watch TV.
