First, you need to know if you have any blob saved in cydia, go check with tiny umbrella if you have any. You may need to find out your ECID and manually input into TU in order for you to download the blob from cydia.

TU won't recognize if your iphone is in frozen mode, dfu or recovery mode as a device. You need to find out your ECID and manually input and request blobs from Cydia.

Look under general tab, if it is 4.3 blob, then you can start tss server running.
Create a custom firmware of 4.3, put iphone into pwned dfu mode, run itunes : shift /option + restore to this custom firmware.

You can use snowbreeze , redsnow 0.9.9 b7 (mac only) or Pwnage tools to create cfw.

You can try the latest sn0wbreeze now that you are already on BB 6.15 and create CW. Read it somewhere that you can upgrade under that baseband. Just try, I don't have 3gs so not tried yet.
Good Lucks!

Go check your baseband again, is it still 6.15.00
Did you hactivate your iphone or you use a sim to activate it ?
If you hactivate, try installing SAM , google search if you don't know how.

If you have the official sim, try restoring to custom firmware, let it activate , do your jailbreak and unlock. Setup up as a new iphone.
