redsnow can only JB 3.0 to 3.1.2/3
Being an i can be a lot of pressure. you have to live right up to the small point.

Go to the Dev Teams site and read their release notes. Make sure your version of your phone is compatable. If it is try DL another IPSW.

Edit: FW might not be recognized because you are not pointing at the right firmware version in Redsn0w or you have downloaded the FW in .rar or .zip format, in which it needs to be in .ipsw format. Try downloading firmware from Google Chrome, Firefox, or Opera. Those will download the file correctly. You can also try changing the file name from .zip or .rar to .ipsw.Last edited by i.Annie; 08-10-2010 at 02:32 PM. Reason: Automerged Doublepost
