I know this is nearly my 10th thread today but problems seem to get worse and worse!

Ok so I've currently got four 1.0.2 iPhones and I unlocked/jailbeak/activated them all using this method http://www.hackint0sh.org/forum/showthread.php?t=6378

This worked perfect on 3 of the iPhones. BUT the 4th one, I followed all the instructions though still says Incorrect SIM. I decided I'd virginize it because I might have made a mistake. To virginize I read that you need AppSnapp so I downloaded the installer and installed it with my iPhone connect to USB, seemed to install fine, though it never showed up on my iPhone. So I tried to re-install thinking something went wrong. This time all these errors came up on my computer and it wouldn't install.

I then decided I'd re-install the firmware so I put it in recovery mode and opened iTunes and went to restore my firmware. It extracted the firmware, then BAM! It says error, cannot restore firmware.

Now I'm stuck in recovery mode! Can't get out of it and I can't restore firmware! Am I completely screwed? I'm very desperate for help I've got 12hrs to send this iPhone unlocked to a buyer. If I can't fix it I'm in debt $700!! Thats why I'm willing to pay someone to help me out here.

PLEASE!! I'm desperate!

BTW iBrickr won't recognize it as connected and neither will PACAY. iTunes only recognizes it when its in recovery mode.

Maybe will sounds stu*id, but... do you try to install iNdependence and run it?

Like this way you will can go out of the Recovery Mode after a minute or so.

Cheers!

If this didn't work, just Restore that phone at the 1.0.2 and let iNdependence do his job. You will can try to unlock and jailbreak again.

probably your phone is in DFU mode

use independence

I have windows will Indepencne work with Windows? Please say yes!

nope it won't. I always use iBrick to kick the iPhone out of the DFU Mode. Just klick boot phone, hopefully the iphone screen turns red.

/edit:

sorry you edited the ibrick bug while I was typing.

Hi Aussie,

what about a little more info:
Which firmware version did you try to install using iTunes? The 1.0.2 again?

Regarding iBrickr: Did you try to put the phone into recovery mode, then use iBrickr? Or will iBrickr also not recognize the phone in recovery-mode?

Well I tried re-installing firmware 1.0.2 and it didn't work and exactly the same thing happened with 1.1.1 when I tried that. It doesn't even attempt to install as soo nas it extracts the error comes up.

Yes iBrickr won't recognize it in Recovery Mode.

Did you download the firmware to your harddrive? Or is iTunes trying to make an online download?

If you have the firmware locally, did you try to unpack/rename the file or anything?
What extension does your local file have?

Bergheim

PS: Do you have some ICQ ID - might be easier...

I did it locally didn't edit the name or anything like that. I've finaly got iBrickr to recognize it and I'm trying to restore 1.0.2 but its asking me whether the screen goes red or green. Its gone blue! I don't whats going on.
