Jailbreak AppleTV 2 Untethered FW 4.4.4 & 5.0.1 Seas0nPass

This is the same process for any form of seas0n pass ATM nothing extra to do, mainly the systems UI was changed with the latest update.

Pre-launch checklist

Download and install the latest version of iTunes (check for updates through Software Update located in Apple menu).
Download Seas0nPass for Mac [10.6 or later] or Windows [XP or later] from HERE.
A micro USB cable will be required to complete the jailbreak.
Disconnect any iPods, iPhones, and iPads from your computer.
Jailbreaking

Step 1: Unzip the ‘Seas0nPass.zip’ file and launch Seas0nPass.

Step 2: Select the ‘Create IPSW’ button to start the jailbreak process.

Step 3: The latest Apple TV software will be downloaded and used to create a custom ‘jailbroken’ software file. (Note: If pre-downloaded you can direct Seas0nPass to it by holding shift and clicking create a IPSW)

Step 4:When prompted, connect your AppleTV using a micro-USB cable (leave power disconnected).

Once the light on the front of the AppleTV begins to flash rapidly, point the remote at the AppleTV and hold both the MENU and PLAY/PAUSE buttons for 7 seven seconds. (You may need to force the AppleTV to restart before doing this by holding MENU+DOWN button till AppleTV flashes rapidly then follow the above process)

Note: This step will require the silver (aluminum) AppleTV remote that was included with the ATV2. The older, white (plastic) remotes will not work.

Step 5: iTunes will open automatically and start the restore process.

Step 6: iTunes will confirm the restore when complete – your AppleTV is now jailbroken.



Note: To confirm the jailbreak was successful a (temporary) red FC logo will appear in the lower right corner of the screen – as shown below.



Done!

If for any reason you get an error use iREB to re-pwn in DFU otherwise Seas0nPass will restart the entire process.

Q: Why do I need NitoTV and how do I install it?
A: You don't need it but it can save you some time at the command line by installing various utilities using it's GUI (Overflow, MainMenuWeather, Rowmote helper, Bluetooth, etc).

Navigate to the Maintenance --> Manage Plugins menu and select the nitoTV item. Restart the AppleTV when prompted.

Ok maybe this is a silly question but I just got an apple tv with firmware 4.4.4 I've downloaded the latest seas0npass but when I click on create IPSW it keeps downloaded IOS 5 firmware how do it force seas0npass to use the version that will allow me to have untethered jailbreak?

You cannot downgrade to that iOS ATM you will be stuck with a tethered iTV for now, also when there is a way to downgrade you'll need your shsh blobs for the device if you didn't save them your sol.

Well, actually the seas0npass downloaded ios 5 but I didn't update my apple tv with it. I figured there had to be a way if I'm on an untethered jailbreakable firmware. After much searching I found out how to jailbreak 4.4.4 even though Apple stop signing old firmware. You just have to manually build the custom firmware by using IFAITH to dump your shsh blob and sn0wbreeze to build the custom firmware. Then flash it with Itunes.

Ya that'll work wasn't sure if you were using the new AppleTV
