    Default Tried to snowbreeze my 4.1 to 4.2.1 - iPhone stuck on black screen. Help!

    I tried to snowbreeze my phone from 4.1 to 4.2.1 just now to update and preserve my baseband. I created a custom ipsw in breeze, ran the TU server, and restored to the custom firmware. It finished and my iPhone didn't boot up.

    I tried using iREB and 'Fix Recovery' in TU but is stuck in the black screen no matter what I do.

    Suggestions?

    I managed to get it to try and install the snowbreeze ipsw again, it installs, but loops back to the black screen after its finished. If I try to install the ipsw again, I get iTunes error 1600. I have to prep it for greenpoison again and do it all over again.

    i also tried redshow, it works, show my iPhone, but after I shut it down, it stays black unless I boot tethered. Still on 4.1

    Any suggestions? I'm worried now I bricked it.

    Update: When I use tinyumbrella to kick it out of recovery, it says 'Unable to find gbdevlist' and other things, loads greenpoison then loops back to the black screen of death.

    Update2: I tried installing a fresh 4.1 ipsw also. It installs, then itunes gives me a 1004 error. I kick out of recovery mode and then it goes to the unable to find gldevlist GreenPoison screen again!! I think the issue is with that.

    Ahh.. 6am and still can't do it!

    Point your hosts file towards apple server for verification of 4.1 restore as apple resigns 4.1.
    Restore to custom firmware of 4.1 again.

    If you are restoring to 4.2.1, make sure you start tss server with 4.2.1 shsh saved in Tiny Umbrella, otherwise it will end up in DFU mode.

    No shsh means you cannot restore to 4.3.3 and that is why you ended in dfu mode.
    Create a custom firmware of IOS 5 from Redsn0w 0.9.9b5 for Mac , put iphone into pwned dfu and restore to it through itunes to preserve your bb.
    Then jailbreak it with redsn0w and unlock with Ultrasn0w.

    Always stay away from stock fw , you don't want to loose your unlockable bb.

    I don't think you have any choice except you can always restore to custom firmware of 4.1 as apple resigns back this fw.
    Only thing is ibooks, not being able to sign in to get ibooks but you can download onto itunes and sync. Just jailbroke my 3gs with redsn0w at IOS 5.

    Can I restore to custom 4.1 fw (which program should I use?) if I have already restored it to 4.3.3 fw?
    Thank you!

    Have you tried a Hard reset. What version of snowbreeze did you use to restore your 3g or 3gs ( cos you didn't mention ).
