With iOS 4.3 released today is anyone updating their ATV2's? I presume we lose the jailbreak and xbmc along with it.
Anyone already freshly jailbroken their 4.3 ATV2? Any problems?

Not to sound like a n00b here, but I'm new to all this.
Currently I have a jailbroken ATV2 running iOS 4.2.1 with XBMC. Am I to assume if I upgrade to iOS 4.3-- I'll lose that functionality? At least until a 4.3 jailbreak comes? And what happens to my current XBMC install during all of this? Is it 'deleted' or something? Much thanks. |

I would wait if I were you. Also hopefully you ran TinyUmbrella. If not.. oops.

I haven't updated ANYTHING and I've disabled iOS auto-update (just being paranoid). I used greenpois0n to do an untethered jailbreak under iOS 4.2.1. I'm going to assume I need to wait for an iOS 4.3 untethered version, as well? Once again, BIG thanks for all the help. tril |

Yes, you have to wait for an untethered jailbreak for 4.3. But why the rush? Just disable auto-update and you're ok.
TinyUmbrella saves your SHSH blobs. These blobs are unique for each device and iOS version and allow you to revert to a previous iOS version if you accidently upgrade, for example. To save the blobs, just connect the Apple TV (jailbroken or not) to your computer and run TinyUmbrella. It will automatically save all the blobs it can. I believe that Apple is still signing the 4.2.1 so you're still on time to get the blobs. In a few days they will stop signing it and you will have no way to revert to 4.2.1 Please note that saving the blobs is not mandatory, but is recommended. This process makes no changes whatsoever to your device. TinyUmbrella just uses your device to contact Apple's servers and retrieve some magic numbers
