Restoring an iPhone 2G that has been unlocked with Bootneuter

[Simon19]

Is it safe to restore a iPhone 2G that has been unlocked with bootneuter? Im not gonna end up with a bricked baseband? I'm juat a little worried about knacking the thing. From what ive read all BB repair methods require jailbreaking back on 1.1.4 and none of the repo's even exist anymore.

Best regards and thanks.

Nothing will go wrong with a restore. Those bricking days are all in the past really...especially with an older device with no new updates for it as far as 3.1.3, it should be fine.

Many thanks, the bricked baseband stories ive read have been fairly recent (Sept/Oct 2010) but gagin it looks like user error in most cases. Fakeblanking the BB and then doing a restore to a different version causing bootloader flashing of the wrong version. Why bootneuter doesnt warn you that fakeblanking is for baseband hackers only beats me.

Cheers, thanks again.

:/ TBH you'd really have to try or be really bad with technology to brick an iPhone. Don't worry too much about it.
