try at your own risk as i did,you will have to do a stock restore and remove cable. i have cut the video length as it was 16 mins long but only the boring stuff. 3gs user on windows xp was os3.1.2 jailbroke with blackra1n. This actually does work, i tried it restoring 3.1.2 stock ipsw before trying 3.1.3 as i have my shsh with cydia so if i made a mistake pulling the cable out i could just keep restoring the 3.1.2 software, i ran ireb and my phone was fine, i’m on O2 so you do need to be on an official sim so itunes can activate, restored to 3.1.3 and pulled cable out at same point,done the same steps and guess what it worked,ran spirit but dont need unlock as im contracted anyway but can still unlock if i want as i still have 05.11.07 baseband….believe me i have tried about 20 to 30 times with snowbreeze and kept getting 1600 error when restoring custom 3.1.3 ipsw…..100% works these are the exact steps… restore ” “Verifying with Apple” “Preparing Restore” may take a minute or 2 “Waiting for ” apple logo with empty white bar appears on phone the bar will be just over halfway complete when you get “Verifying with apple” then pull cable out as soon as it says “updating ” and itunes gives error 9 so just close itunes run ireb 3.1.2 3gs loop fix then activate with itunes then rejailbreak with spirit. worked for me 100% again …

I made the video for the benefit of every 1 like me who wanted to keep the baseband but credit goes to andy jpn, I’m glad it helped and wouldn’t of took the time of making the video and putting it on here if I knew it would do harm to peoples iPhones…;-)

Thank you man, it realy works, i have a lot of problems wiyh my 3gs when I had damaged my software, and itunes had not alowed to restore to 3.1.2 I was scared that if I update to 3.1.3 I could lose old base band, but everything is OK now. It real WORKS. Thanks.

Credit goes to a lad called jpn andy, but I found no video proving it, I’ve done 5 of my friends phones this way and they are all fine and worked first time, I’m sure you can just download a custom 3.1.3 ipsw now that stops at the same point as pulling the cable out….did it work for you?

i had selected make my life easier on cydia but it never saved my shsh, i didnt realize until it was too late.where did u hear about this method, its brilliant.

Do you not have your shsh saved with cydia or on file, you don’t restore with custom ipsw 3.1.2 if you have?

You’d very good guidelines there. I did a hunt on the matter and observed that very likely people i’ve talked to will agree with your website.

Boa noite pessoal, realmente um torpedo web grátis está cada vez mais trabalhoso devido a restrição das operadoras de celular. Há ainda os websites que prometem entregar minha menssagem mas nem sempre chegam recepiente final. Alguns como o Mundo oi e o Oi Torpedo funcionam mas e para as outras operadoras? E os que prometem que mandam e nada chega. Para onde está indo as meus torpedos? E para a Tim, Vivo? Alguma Idéia? Ou significa ter de desembolsar?. É só um desabafo, realmente está difícil achar dicas para enviar SMS barato.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
