This already worked for me on my iPhone 4

Well im glad u posted, i was going to ask if this has any importance to any one. And so it does. Good job dev team.
-
Awesome. A bit late but what the hell.

Where do you get the iOS 5 firmware file for iPhone 4?
-
-
Is this working well???...wut differences are between this and snowbreeze???

I think you need to make one important change in the "Troubleshooting" section. Whenever you want to "just reboot," you also need at the same time to select the IPSW again. If you don't do this, you will get an "Unexpected build" error. So the process of re-booting is always twofold: first, select your IPSW, then select "Just Reboot" and follow the directions to get to DFU mode.
