Okay. That's good.
So all you have to do is use redsn0w 0.9.10b8b to rejailbreak. I would recommend you DO NOT use the very latest version. I don't recommend that because the Dev-Team said the new redsn0w has all new code...and should only be used for downgrading A5 devices, and if you want to jailbreak (or rejailbreak) that you should use redsn0w 0.9.10b8b until the bugs are worked out in 0.9.11 redsn0w versions.
But if you want to restore fresh then you MUST have 5.0.1 SHSH blobs, which I'm sure you have. If you don't have SHSH blobs for that firmware then you cannot restore to 5.0.1.
If you think you need to restore you have to use Sn0wbreeze v2.9.3 or iFaith v1.4.2 to make a 5.0.1 iPSW that has you 5.0.1 SHSH blobs stitched into them. Then you MUST enter PWNED DFU mode and restore to that custom iPSW.
You will also need to download the latest version of Tiny Umbrella to download the SHSH so you can select them when you are building your iPSW. You will also need to 5.0.1 iPSW for your device model.
It is best you make sure contacts and everything else in Settings> iCloud is toggled on before restoring. Because if you restore you SHOULD NOT restore from a backup....not from iTunes backup, not from iCloud backup. Problems get backed up with all other data. But even after restoring and setting up as new device anything toggled on in Setting> iCloud will automatically be restored to your device when you select "Use iCloud" when initially setting up the phone after restore.
Sn0wbreeze makes an iPSW that is already jailbroken...so you don't have to jailbreak after restore...Cydia is already installed. If you do use Sn0wbreeze to restore you must select "iFaith Mode" so that you can select your 5.0.1 SHSH blobs.
If you use iFaith, it will restore stock firmware and will have to jailbreak with redsn0w after restore and syncing with iTunes.
Hope this helps.
