Apple stopped signing 9.0.1 long ago. You can only get the latest version which is I think iOS 9.1 which isn't jailbreakable unfortunately.

Yeah, they don't like people downgrading to jailbreak their device. Which is our device, we should be able to jailbreak it whenever we want.

I would actually be upgrading, running 8.1.2 right now haha. Not worth losing my Xmod on clash to update to 9.1..
