IOS – iPhone apps won’t stay on

You can't update your phone to iOS 5.0 Not even if you have your SHSH saved. So nothing you do will allow you to install 5.0 right now. At least for the time being. Your only option is 5.01. The problem is that apple is no longer signing 5.0 and no shsh blobs will help you neither because a new security measure implemented on all 5.X

So if you need an unlock in order to use your phone I would highly recommend not updating to 5.01 because UltraSnow is currently not working on 5.01 despite of what baseband you have. No even with 1.59 baseband (but this is just until ultrasnow is updated to work on 5.01) If you don't need an unlock then you can safely update to 5.01 and do a tethered jailbreak using the latest redsn0w and pointing the ispw to 5.0

And before doing anything please update to the latest iTunes.

I hope this helps.

He can't go to settings it's impossible the only way to fix is to restore everything and avoid winter board on ios 5.0.1 untetheted home screen is all that works after I went threw this once I found a cydia tweak app that can put my phone into safe mode and let me fix problem if it ever happens again since Im pretty sure u need winter board for sbsettings I can no longer use it for safe mode. Avoid winter board till there's a fix for ios 5.0.1 untethered.
