Hi all, I did every single step in this tutorial, but after trying to restore my custorm IPSW I had error 1604 3 times, error 10 1 time and error 4 2 times. I did the PwnedDFU, I did the NO_BB IPSW, exactly as written in this guide.I have a 3gs old bootrom, 5.12.07, was already jailbreaked and unlocked on IOS 4.1.Now my iPhone is dead. Any suggestion?Tks a lot in advance

The article states that it's a tethered Jailbreak. So which is it? :/
-
Hopefully you saved your SHSH on Tiny Umbrella or Saurik's server. Try Sn0wbreeze on next attempt if you have a pc. Also can try going back to 4.1 *modified ipsw* s(o you don't upgrade your BB) and then try Sn0wbreeze (windows) and Redsn0w. If you're having trouble getting out of DFU mode then redsn0w have options to get out of recovery mode. Goodluck and post your results. I got around the errors upgrading my resetting my hosts file to use only apple servers when I upgraded.

Ill Wait for UNTETHERED jailbreak.... good job on the jailbreak tho.
-
I did put in DFU mode, but that step "Step 12: Redsn0w will run the Limera1n exploit" didn't happen. Once I created the IPSW file and my iPhone is in DFU mode, do I need to do something on redsn0w app? Because it doesn't show any Limera1n exploit message.Thanks
-
i restored it to default and kept the basebands. jailbroke it twice, and installed ultrasn0w twice. after each ultrasn0w installation, my 3gs kept rebooting on it's own
-
Now it worked. After the IPSW was created and the iPhon was in DFU mode, I needed to click on "Pwned DFU"
-
MMS works fine with iMessage becasue that is through WiFi, but I do not have the button to change my MMS settings in my network settings, so I cannot input the correct MMS information.
-
Try using the "Just Boot" option on redsn0w when you reboot it.

Hello.I have installed iOS 5 to iphone 4.i did all the same as said in the instruction in jailbreaknations.com .Everything ok till i turning my phone off. When i turning it on i cant enter to cydia , safari, youtube.Plz help me
-
This blows! but thanx for the thered! jailbreak on!
-
Tethered my friend!
-
I have a 3Gs, untethered with 4.3.3/6.15.0.0 BB and unlocked using ultrasnow. Now if I upgrade to iOS 5 will I still have Untethered JB or will it be tethered. How about the Unlock, which I am most worried about.RegardsGW
-
Unlock will work as long as you use Redsn0w with PwnageTool (Mac) or Sn0wbreeze(Win) to preserve supported basebands and then reinstall Ultrasn0w.

Hi guys,I have a iPhone 3Gs new bootromJailbroken using RedSn0wUntethered.Is this possible? Cause I can restart without the help of redsn0w.
-
Need to boot with Redsn0w to use Cydia. Thats what tethered means.
-
Verified untethered on OLD BOOTROM 3GS with Sn0wbreeze.
-
Mine also restarts, however Cydia doesn't work on my new BR 3GS. Does your Cydia also work without a Redsn0w reboot?
-
I have read somewhere that iphone 3gs on an older BB can still be untethered? Can someone confirm this? I have the 05.11.xx bb.
-
Thanks for all your hard work.iPhone 3gs previously unlocked with pwnage and jailbroken, running iOS 4.3.1 BB 05.12.01iTunes 10.5All goes great until step #16. There is no "choose" button, only "open". Select that and see "extracting software" then "verifying iPhone restore" then it stops and gives error message "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. This device isn't eligible for the requested build. Never get to the point where I am asked to setup from a previous backup or as a new phone.Any ideas?Thx.
-
Hi Nestor, did you solve your problem? I have your same setup: unlocked iPhone 4 with BB 1.59.00 on iOS 4.1 and I was going to update it to iOS 5 until I read your post. Please let me know if you were able to fix this. Anyone else?
-
Before i update, I want to know, Should my cydia say SHSH blob 5.0 because currently it says 4.1 & 4.3.5 only.If it should than how do i create a blob for iOS 5 before updating? or can i update without having one?
-
"This device isn’t eligible for the requested build". Any idea how to fix this?
-
@ 9kids!!!i found the solution to our problem. If you see this message (“The iPhone “iPhone” could not be restored. This device isn’t eligible for the requested build.) during the restoration process, you need to edit your /etc/hosts file. people who install tiny umbrella might have this issue because tiny umbrella changed your hosts file. you need to put a "#" in front of the apple IP address. if you need to know what that ip address is, go to Terminal, and enter "ping apple.com" the replying ping will be the line you will put the # in front of. Hope this work. If you still have trouble, blog this page an i will try to help you future...
-
Thanks so much! You were right about TinyUmbrella. Worked like a charm. You rock!
-
Same problem here, no help on the other blogs. Anyone?
-
Ok, sorry to be a newb, but how do I edit the file? I just switched to mac from PC
-
I mean PC to Mac...
-
i have the same white icon and when i run the boot it says no data fetched
-
I am still not certain, is this JB tethered or un-tethered for a 3GS with old bootrom???
