    Default HELP!!! 3gs 4.0.1 Jailbreak

    Hello Everyone....

    Apologies for being a complete n00b in this department... but anyhow...

    I bought a brand new 3gs 16gb and gave it to my sister for safekeeping, not knowing she'd use her brains and go update the damned thing. Now i'm stuck with a 3gs, no SHSH blobs, and 4.0.1 OS. I need to JB the damned thing so i can go ahead and get some sleep!! PLEASE HELP!!!

    *sob sob sob*

    Please! Someone! You'll be my personal idol i worship for this entire year!! I promise!

    That's the whole thing... I'm not able to go beyond the screen that says Emergency calls only. I've tried putting in a Sim Card and still nothing happens. What do i do now??!?!?

    Was it an At&t sim?
    Did you connect it to itunes after you put the sim card in?

    I did a restore to my jailbroke phone, and after I had to change the t-mobile sim to the old at&t sim and reconnect it to itunes. Then it asked again if I wanted to upgrade or restore. I just disconnected from the pc and jailbroke it again.

    I'm in India, and the SIM was probably Airtel. And yes, i think she let it connect to itunes. So what do i do now? Do i just like do a full restore and see if that works? 'Coz i don't think it will! Plus, this phone's NEVER been jailbroken. :-(

    I am not sure about the sim situation but I know when I restored mine I had to take the t-mo sim out and put the at&t sim back in for itunes to connect to it. Once I replaced the sim itunes showed the phone activated and ok to disconnect.

    I will research a little. Check this page
