Default clarifying bootloader

Hi,

I would just like to understand clearly what's happening... Thx

In March, I bough an 3G iPhone with version 2,1. I've jailbreak & unlock : no problem.

In September I upgrade to v3,0 + jailbreak & unlock : no problem.

End September I buy a 3GS and want to give my 3G to my mom... so I reset & erase all. In the process the phone got freezed. So after several attempts, I succeded to restore it in 3,1. Now I jailbreak & unlock and my modem went to 5,11,07 + my bootloader is in 5,09 meaning basically that it doesn't work anymore...

I understand that my modem firmware has been upgraded but I think my bootloader was always the same. No?

If it was always the same, isn't there a way to simply "format" the phone and go back to 3.0 or even 2,1?

Thank you

Pwolfy

your booloader is always the same, you can not uppgrade/downgrade, itīs hardware.

your modem/baseband IS uppgradeble but NOT downgradeble
(unless you are on bootloader 5.08)

you can downgrade your iphone fw to 3.0 or 2,21 but baseband/modem will still be on 5,11,07

Thank you for your answer Micked!

So I got it : I was always in Bootloader 5.09 & my baseband did an upgrade.

Still : isn't there any way to "flash" the phone and/or "format" it completely so it goes to its factory settings?

Or do I have to wait for lovely magicians doing a new Fuzzyband?

thx
