    Unhappy Have I completely killed my phone?

    Damn, I should read stickies!

    ---

    So I finally made the jump to upgrade my 3GS from 4.0.1 to 4.2.1. After a couple of initial hiccups, I did manage to sort out the upgrade and the jailbreak, then proceeded to install all of my usual things from Cydia when the problem started.

    One of these 4 is what I believe caused the problem:

    - Lockscreen Clock Hide
    - Silent Charge
    - LockInfo
    - LockInfo 2Do Plug-in

    I can't pinpoint the culprit since I haven't been able to use my phone since. After the install it asked me to reboot, and then it got stuck on the lockscreen. I couldn't unlock, bring up SBSettings or do anything else.

    So naturally, I tried restoring through iTunes. I downloaded and tried restoring to the official 4.2.1 IPSW, but that gave me error 1015.

    I've tried putting the phone in DFU mode using redsn0w, then loading custom 4.2.1, but then it gets to the point where it says that the phone will reboot in 10 seconds... and then the phone gets stuck in DFU mode until I try restoring to the official firmware where I get the 1015 error.

    Any one got any suggestions or have I bricked it?

    I have the SHSH blobs saved on Cydia and locally.
    The iPhone is on the iPad baseband. Latest iTunes, Windows 7 64-Bit.

    Any help will be appreciated!

    You didnt brick it. The stock restore isnt working because of the iPad baseband. Try finding another custom firmware to shift + restore to that either already has iPad baseband included or does not touch baseband at all.

    Thanks for the reply. I've got the phone up and running thanks to the sticky.

    I was going to report this thread to get it deleted, but I'm still wondering though, why one (or more) of those 4 caused the iPhone to crash so badly.
