    I have followed these steps for 2-3 times now and my Iphone 4 always gets to the "pineapple logo" after I boot tethered with the redsn0w "just boot". But nothing happens, even if I wait for half an hour or more - the pineapple logo just stays on the screen.I have downloaded the iPhone3,1_5.0_9A5220p_Restore.ipsw and I am using the "Select IPSW" each time I jailbreak or try to boot tethered.Anyone having the same problem? and a solution? Thanks

    Update: If I add the "-v" flag when booting teethered, I get the following repeated lines in the boot up:com.apple.launchd 1 com.apple.launchd 1 System: Still alive with 0/0 (normal/anonymous) childrencom.apple.launchd 1 com. apple.securityd 0 (com.apple.securityd) Mach service is still activeAnd if I wait for 10-15 minutes it continues into normal boot sequence (not jailbreak) - i.e. Cydia does not work.

    did all the steps, worked great, until it boots and tells me I need a valid sim. Is this normal? i don't have the original sim. Even if you've answered someone else a million times, pls answer this post too. i've read thru the whole thread and didn't find the answer.thanks
