Iphone 3GS 4.2.1 Ipad Baseband Stuck

First off let me start by saying i am new to the forum, I have jailbroken a few iphones/itouches with no problem in the past.

I currently do not have the 4.1 SHSH Blobs
Running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit
Running Itunes 10.1.1.4
Iphone 3GS 16g 4.2.1 New BootRom
Used redsn0w to jailbreak
here is a paste of my iphone updater log 2010-12-20 18:14:09.536 [1604:1078]: restore libra
That one was made with the 4.2.1 UPG

I recently used Redsn0w b5 to jailbreak following a few guides. I was aware of the consequences that would happen if i clicked on Ipad Baseband. The first time around i avoided that button and continued. the Jailbreak was a success After playing around with the phone Cydia and Safari were not working properly Also it was a bit slow. I decided to downgrade again and before the recovery finished i got the error as expected and now i am completely stuck in Recovery mode (With Ipod Wire+Itune symbol). I have read many guides and threads on this forum hoping i will come across a solution. Its been about 4 days and still no luck.

I will post here everything i have tried and things i have read.

- Mostly iPhone hacking: Data recovery: not just for iBoot-pwned devices
In this link i have read it changes the IPSW to Recover instead of Update. I used the 4.2.1 to create the UPG And it was recovering. Before it finished i got error "1015" I have read it is a common error and should just use the TinyUmbrella to kick from Recovery at that point.

I tried that as well and still did not work. Maybe i did the Tinyumbrella Wrong but this is how i did it. Once the error poped up i left it on the itunes screen opened TinyUmbrella and clicked "Exit Recovery" Then it loops as usual.

I also tried to follow this guide where this user has exact problem as mine except he is on 3G where as i am on 3GS.

Also i tried to downgrade to 4.1 but i get Error code "3194" i googled it and tried Some "Fix" And still problem occurs. i was reading this post and it seems Last poster is stuck where i am stuck at http://www.hackint0sh.org/f204/196391.htm

Also tried to get download a custom firmware of 4.2.1 and no go iether it hangs for a real long time at "Prepare iphone for restore" And then it errors out error code is "1604"

i also tried to follow this link with users having similar problem and still no luck http://www.hackint0sh.org/f204/196391.htm

Any help i would appreciate i am getting a bit frustrated.

Ah and also, i have tried with and without the SIM

Ok after many attempts later and digging deep. I Finally made a bit of progress. I was apple to run the 4.1 restore it seemed to work well Until i hit the "1015" Error code in the beginning. As i read this is very normal just need to run TinyUmbrella and kick out of recovery. Now my problem is i did this in DFU Mode so TinyUmbrella did not detect it. Also now my Iphone 3gs seems to be stuck in DFU mode. here is a pastebin

http://pastebin.com/3pL3Nmxy

Although tiny umbrella does not detect it in DFU mode. Itunes still does recognize it.

FUCKING YES!, Ok guys finally after some time. i was finally able to downgrade to 4.1 And booted into the actual OS 4.1 of my iphone 3gs It is not stuck in recovery no more!
Now some issues i am having which are very small. I have a sim card at&t but it says no service i understand this maybe because not on normal baseband and need to jailbreak further or install something like ultrasn0w. I did try UltraSn0w and to be honest it bugged out my phone once again Spring board was very slow and laggy. So i installed once more the 4.1 through itune restore. It now seems the only way to really turn on my phone is though redsn0w "Just enter tethered now" i don't even see the recovery any more (the one with the ipod wire) other than that now that i am back on 4.1 do you suggest i go ahead and follow the steps here

4.1 should not need to be tethered. You are using the wrong IPSW in redsn0w I think.

Are you using a 4.2.1 IPSW in redsn0w?

Hey bro, I don't know if the mods allow it, But sure here is what i remember doing.

I had added this to the host file
74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
74.208.105.171 gs.apple.com

and from there i had downloaded 4.1 Stock firmware for the 3GS i put my phone into DFU mode (Unfortunately it is stuck in DFU mode if i power it down or reboot NOTE: NOT Jailbroken yet again) I am trying to resolve the issue for this DFU problem.

Opened up tiny Umbrella and had Start TSS Server in background

I got error 1600 and googled around and found a fix for it using iREB did the process using iREB tried again and the 4.1 Stock firmware installed got Error "1015" since my phone was stuck on DFU mode tiny umbrella did not recognize so i cannot click exit recovery so i press "Ok" On itunes opened up Redsn0w 0.9.6b5 and loaded stock 4.1 This time i got no error and continued. I then click on "Just enter tether now" And waited for my phone to reboot (NOTE: SOmetimes it got stuck on reboot so i had to hold HOME+POWER/SLEEP untill it reboot, OR open up itunes and let it prompt me saying it is in recovery)

waited for the reboot and then it booted up into the 4.1 OS Got the Slide bar at the bottom with the Itunes+Wire. Connected it to ITunes and everything was set after that.

Hope this help bro.

I Still need some help from mods

No you are doing this right.. very strange that you have a tethered boot.

If it helps, Like i said before i am STuck on DFU mode i have checked all around and no luck yet. Maybe this is why i am having the tethered problem.

Also i have not yet jailbreak my iphone yet with the 4.1 after the second restore. But i did have to use the "Enter tethere now" Option on redsn0w to jump start my phone to boot up.


this link here has many of the same issues i was having and currently having with the DFU http://www.hackint0sh.org/f266/194926.htm
