Hey, i have an iphone 3gs with the ipad baseband, running 4. I know from ecperience that you cant just push restore, or shift restore, or a DFU resore, or even a pwnd DFU resore without sending it into the restore mode loop. This is where the iphone gets the sync witb itunes screen whenever you turn it on, and itunes says that it detects an iphone in resore mode, but gives you an error message whenever trying to take it out.

When i did this, i gave it to a friend to fix, and i have no idea how he did it, but it used to run 4.

Also, my computer is not connected to the interenet. No jokes please:. I think my backup file is gone how to i create a new one? My brother stole my iPod and jailbroke it, and now the whole thing is screwed up.
