    I've already tried both.

    When i tried restoring it to custom firmware it's stuck in a recovery loop.

    when jailbreaking with greenposion for some reason it switches on after the first jailbreak step that's after dfu mode.

    no he cant, its an iphone 4 and will probably **** up the phone if he tried to install the ipad bb

    your getting confused with unlock and jailbreak, 4.2.1 is the firmware or version and 03.10.01 is the baseband or modem firmware
    jailbreak is dependant on firmware, unlock is dependant on baseband and nobody knows when or if it will get unlocked
    Ok so I can still jailbreak even if I am in that baseband since I am not looking to unlOck the phone?

    Did this on iPhone 3GS in the wee hours of last night. Seemed to work fine.
    Noticed the phone has dropped connection to my wifi a couple of times though not sure if that's a problem with my Internet/router at home or the jailbreak.
    Anyone else have that issue?

    Will try the iPad later.

    I was using an app on my 3g it was to do with battery analyzer and it messed up my call settings and 3g so I went to restore.
    Its a 3g 16gig with 4.2.1 iOS and 6.15.00

    I know you have to use custom firmwares but it not working for me.
    It not in the logo with the usb cable.I Do the regular restore get error obviously but that gives 1015 error.

    So I use redsnow to try and restore it,I do with they say online but it never works.

    I use the orginal firmware iPhone1,2_4.2.1_8C148_Restore with redsnow and just tick the dfu box and thats works.

    Then Im supposed to use the custom firmware but everytime I click restore with the shift button pressed and open the custom ipsw,I get the error incorrect firmware.The file I use is iPhone1,2_4.2.1_8C148_Custom_Restore.Does anyone know what im doing wrong?

    You're using the wrong IPSW. That IPSW is for a 3G, You need to download an IPSW with the name "iPhone2,1_4.2.1_8C148_Restore"

    Sorry i edited my post,i am using a 3g phone.


  • Registered Users Posts: 773 ✭✭✭Jakmeehan


    Sorry i edited my post,i am using a 3g phone.
    You have to either build your own, or download a custom IPSW and restore to that.

    Restoring to a stock IPSW is not possible if you have the iPad baseband installed.

    Redsn0w is not needed then because you will already be jailbroken with the custom IPSW.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,099 ✭✭✭the whole year inn


    I got it working,I was just saving the custom IPSW instead of open with,got it restored and now im getting 0xEo8000065 error and computer doesnt pickup on the phone.

    You can run the latest version of redsn0w over it, only selecting the "Install cydia" checkbox.

    Try putting iPhone into DFU mode and restore from there


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,814 ✭✭✭Nemanja91


    Just did my first ever jailbreak on my iPhone 4 using green poison on my Mac and it was very easy.

    Thanks Guil for the help.

    Cant believe the Loader app didnt show up, kick in the teeth. Reds0w cant be downloaded for some reason.

    When I download that and run redsn0w.exe.. It extracts/loads etc, then says Please select the corresponding IPSW for your CURRENT firmware. And gives me the option to Browse????
