If you try to downgrade your iPhone 3GS to any version from 4.2.1 all the way to 4.3.5, you will get error 1015 and tinyumbrella wont work. This is because every time you update your iPhone, iTunes automatically updates the baseband. When you try to downgrade it, iTunes tries to update the baseband but is unable to because your baseband is higher since it was already updated in the past and you’re trying to go back to a lower baseband which is not possible. You can skip the baseband update by following the step-by-step video below.

You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something that I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I’ll try to get the hang of it!
I was suggested this blog by my cousin. I’m not sure whether this post is written by him as no one else know such detailed about my problem. You are incredible! Thanks!

Hi,
i have a iphone 3gs on 4.2.1 with ipad baseband 6.15.00. i tried updating to 5.1.1 with redsn0w and successfully upgraded and jailbroken and unlocked with ultrasnow. after that i installed redracoon 5.1.1 for unteethered jail break. Still i could not switch with out redsn0w. also i observed that after some time, the iphone automatically switched off as soon as it entered into sleep mode. I had to connect to redsnow again and again to start the iphone. after that i tried to downgrade from ipad baseband option in redsn0w to downgrade from 6.15.00 to 05.13.04.
Now my iphone is shows blank screen and never turns on. When reboot from redsn0w, it shows white screen then bright white screen for few minutes and goes back to black screen.
I tried updating to NO_BB ipsw using redsnow, but i get a 28 error.
please help me.
thanks in advance

Hi, I bought a 3g iphone long agon was unlocked and jailbroken. When i got to itunes it gave me an error and got stuck on recovery with the slide and emergency call only. I used ireb,tinyumbrella,recboot,limera etc, because the power button is stuck and this software don’t need nothing else to fix recovery but i am still stuck with emergency calls when i put my tmobile sim again it fills the signal bar but its still stuck. What can i do in this case?
