Restore iPhone 3GS to 3.1.2 Using SHSHs on File with Cydia | Windows
This Windows guide will teach you how to restore your iPhone 3GS to 3.1.2 instead of 3.1.3 using the SHSH details stored on Cydia for your 3GS.
This method also works to restore iPhone 3GS devices to 3.1.2 instead of 3.1.3 for many that have encountered an error with sn0wbreeze (as long as you haven't panic'd and done a normal 3.1.3 restore via iTunes already).
If you have already restored on stock Apple firmware 3.1.3 via iTunes this guide may leave your phone unable to connect to the network (the 3.1.3 baseband and 3.1.2 firmware may not work well together).
The first requirement is that Cydia has your SHSH details stored for 3.1.2. If you have opened Cydia and seen green text at the top "This device has SHSHs on file for iPhone OS: 3.1.2" then you can restore to 3.1.2.

You need to edit your host file to connect to Saurik's server instead of Apples to sign the 3.1.2 firmware when you restore.
Download iPhone 3GS 3.1.2 firmware
Windows Vista and Windows 7 users make sure the program Notepad has Administrator privileges (find Notepad, right click, select Run as Administrator).
On your Windows PC Browse C->WINDOWS->system32->drivers->etc
(if you installed Windows on a different drive letter browse to that on instead of "C")
Right click on hosts and select Open.

Choose Notepad and click OK.

Add "74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com" at the end of the file. Save it.

Before continuing enter restore mode. One way to do this is disconnect your phone from the computer and turn your phone off. Start iTunes. Hold the home button on your phone and plug it in. Continue holding the home button until iTunes indicates you are in restore mode.

Now you'll be at a screen similar to the one below. Hold the Shift key while you click Restore.

Browse to the 3.1.2 firmware file you downloaded earlier. Select it and click Open.

Click Restore.

iTunes will does its thing.





Once done your phone will reboot and you'll be back on 3.1.2.

i got the error 3014 after i selected the firmware from itunes.

thanks for you help! im still getting the error
"the iphone "iphone" could not be restored. this device isnt eligible for the requested build"
does this mean my info isn't on his server? or would there be a different kind of error?
thanks alot
software not compatible error.
WORK LIKE A MAGIC
I LOVE ISRAEL
i got error 1015
Thanks.
denebola, I'm confused about your post? You still have to use saurik's host file thing to be able to restore any 3.1.2 ispw.
Why is your ispw any better than the original ipsw.
your quote "no need to
Restore iPhone 3GS to 3.1.2 Using SHSHs on File with Cydia"
this one didnt work for me. this sucks…. my phone wouldnt connect to wifi so i followed apples suggestions and did the "erase all settings" or whatever and it messed up my phone.. so i hit restore and it put my phone to 3.1.3
ergg!!!!
didnt work for me… got 1015. Tried denebola's firmware as well and it just got stock on "waiting for iphone"
I had the same issue. I read that the baseband cannot be downgraded, but the software can. I spent a few hours trying different things but the one that worked for me was this:
After 3014 error:
Run redsnow (0.9.2)
Select yes when it asks if your 3gs is newer (regardless if it's old)
Redsn0w then gives options to jailbreak or tethered boot. Select Tethered boot.
after 30-60 seconds iphone will start to boot.
Activate via itunes
start blackra1n
"make it ra1n" <- you should know how to go on from here
I did this with the older iboot 3gs.
I attempted to use only blackra1n, but i ran into a problem. The phone booted and blackra1n was on it, but the hackivation wasn't working, i could not get signal. I'm assuming this was because i was still using the newer baseband. redsn0w let me boot up the phone after the 3014 error and activate. I also couldn't get redsn0w to initially jailbrake, which i think is because of the activation process.
Again, the baseband stays at 05.12.01, and cannot be unlocked.
Im getting this error please help Iphone couldn't be restored cuase the firmware is not compaitiable
I am on windows 7, i signed in as administrator, after editing the hosts, it wouldn't let me save, asking me to save to my documents, and so I did. I then copied it back and replaced the original hosts with the new one. Haven't tried restoring it yet cos I don't need it right now. Just testing the hosts pointing to gs.apple.com.

for andyharp, wel, I dont understand why it
for andyharp, well, I dont understand why was working for me with the firmware i had mentioned earlier, but i did`n backup any cydia shshs stuff of my phone, maybe it`s because my previous firmware was pwened and that why worked
i guess im one of the ones whose shsh's file did not back up on cydia properly, itunes says error for requested build
ok i have a problem, my service right now is flat out frustrating, im on 3.1.2 (7D11) with my serial number 4th and 5th digit 46, im currently jailbroken using blackra1n and my service jumps constantly (going in and out of service while im sitting in the same spot, it's pretty unreliable..my ? is what do I do? I don't want to upgrade to 3.1.3, but it can't function properly with the jailbreak i used, I was trying to restore using the above method and it doesn't work im getting the "software not compatible" error. I was thinking of re-jailbreaking using redsnow instead of blackra1n but I have to get it restored first to 3.1.2…..Also my baseband is 05.11.07
Any tips would be really appreciated!!
These kinds of problems are why lots of us are waiting for the official dev team jailbreak.
I am sitting at OS 3.0.1 with baseband 04.26.08 using ATT Carrier 6.0 and everything works correctly.
Just because Apple comes out with some goofy update …that doesn't mean we should all embrace it
and then mess up our jailbroken phones.
I get error 1015, any fix?
Worked great! Thanks!
one job of restore is done , nice ? but iphone is asking to put in a valid sim ; now what to do please help
Need some help. I cant open the ipsw firmware on windows 7 ultimate. can someone suggest what program i need. made the mistake of update with 3.1.3 from snowbreeze and it updated baseboard. just wondering if im sol and have to wait now till dev team hopefully release a method for this
do i need cydia 4 dis??
This didn't work. I'm on 3GS, apple 3.1.3 firmware on new bootrom. Oh well, was worth a shot.
Thanks, I can downgrade (3.1.3 to 3.1.2), But I cant unlock it,
This is my 1st day with my jailbroke iPhone. I didn't see green writing on the Cydia but I did choose the "make it easy for me" option on Cydia. Will it take time to be saved? I also tried all of the steps to restore to 3.1.2 and I am also getting "this device isnt eligible for the requested build" My phone is frozen I can't do anything. Is there any other option but to restore to 3.1.3 Thanks Baroda
Okay people, I've read the comments and guides restoring the 3.1.3 to 3.1.2 and I can say that after a few real hours with it, I was able to do so. My 3GS was already jailbroken with 3.1.2 and froze up and the only thing I could do was force it into recovery mode……I will say that after multiple attempts, I was a bit frantic as having jailbroken my phone, I've become quite spoiled with it……Soooooooooooo here goes. With my 3.1.2, I did follow the guide (the 1st one (http://modmyi.com/guides/?p=3146)) but it didn't work. I tried multiple times just to confirm and still no joy. My phone would get to the last part and then go back into Recovery Mode and iTunes through up an error. Now it is said that you cannot jailbreak a 3.1.3 phone however, I was like f**k it and tried anyway. It went through the jailbreak process and it completed however (I was only able to make emergency calls) it was still in Recovery Mode. I then attempted again to restore back to the 3.1.2 and guess what???????? IT WORKED!!!!!! I'm not sure if the preceding steps involved other than downloading 3.1.2 made any difference but you may just try forcing a recovery on your iphone, then jailbreaking it, and lastly, restoring it using version 3.1.2. I hope this helps……..
This is what worked for me……I forced my 3GS into Recovery Mode, ran Blackra1n and jailbroke it again ( it will still be in recovery mode but you can see the slider and make emergency only calls) and then ran a Restore from iTunes to version 3.1.2 from 3.1.3…I hope this helps!
i upgraded my 3gs (old boot rom) to 3.1.3 by mistake…….went crazy for a while thinking i wasnt gonna be able to jailbreak it for a long time, then i just followed the instructions above and it worked. itunes did give me a 1015 error and my phone was stuck on the cable screen but i used quickpwn to activate it.
I tried in four different computers with xp, vista and windows 7 in last few days. Finally, I go back to 3.1.2 (3gs new boot rom), and did not save SHSHS before. But the baseband stays in 05.12.01. It means I can't get my T-mobile service back.
Any solution?!!
It works , thanks to Cydia Server , just did a custom FW 3.1.2 restore and Ultrsn0w to unlock amd works like a charm on my 3GS(oldbootrom)
Just followed the directions and it worked. Only thing I had to do different was copy and paste from notepad (run as admin) because the instance of notepad opening 'host' wasn't being run as admin. Copied and pasted to the instance run as admin and saved as 'host' (no file type, not .txt) and overwrote the existing 'host', after having added in the cydia server address. Other than that it worked like a charm.
I had to do the restore because even though Snowbreeze 1.5 worked, I was getting memory leaks galore and everything ran more slowly (on my 3GS). That and Phoenix3200's 'Music Controls' no longer controlled ipod.app and it kept running in the background even when other music apps were opened. In case you aren't familiar with 'Music Controls', it isn't supposed to work that way. So all is well and I'm back on the tried and true 3.1.2.
Thanks to all who created this handy and helpful guide!
doing mine rite now i think is working yeeeeee

I can't seem to get this (or any other tutorial for a custom 3.1.2 firmware install) working. I've downloaded the necessary firmare, my Cydia says that it has SHSHs on file for 3.1.2, I've modified my hosts file and it pings to the new IP properly, but every time I try to restore in iTunes it only gives me a 'Restore and Update' option which then leads to 3.1.3 (I stop at this point every time since I know what a hassle it can be to downgrade from 3.1.3)
Anyone have any suggestions?
When I extract the downloaded firmware, I get an error at the end, stating "The path '1_3.1.2_7D11_Restore' does not exist or is not a directory." Anyone ever see this or know how I can fix this??? I've tried downloading from several websites and still get the same error. It's very VERY frustrating =|
I have 3Gs 16 gb at 3.1.2 jb and unlocked by blackrain thered though. i downloaded some stuff from cydia needed to boot but ip stuck in recovery mode ; i used cydia shsh file system and that worked for me , now i need jb and unlock too, i have two questions to know from community please help 1 -coming back to 3.1.2 through shsh ,Does this also reverts the baseband ? 2- what is the best method now to JB and UNLOCK ? waiting for help
The download up top isnt working.
the download works on my vista computer. but now its giving me an error, Does anyone know how to get around the error "The iphone could not be restored. This device is not eligible for the requested build"
works like a charm i had to restore my 3gs today to 3.1.2
You will have to change the file extension to ipsw if windows tries to convert into a zip file
i get error that your iphone is not elligible for restoe when i restore it to 3.1.2. i already have 3.1.2 but my wifi is not working and also at the time of restart my phone restarts after running blackra1n atleast 10 times thats also in safe mode. he
can any1 help me out of this?
I have 3Gs serial xxx31xx and model is MB 16 gb bought in january with 3.1.2 Fm , i messed up and successfuly reverted to 3.1.2 through cydia shsh file system, its still jb and unlocked , i want to know ' DOES THIS PROCESS ALSO DOWNGRADES THE BASE BAND ALSO' ?
If i have 3Gs running 3.0 & want get 3.1.2 update, but "made my life easier" few days ago, now Cydia show this "This device has SHSHs on file for iPhone OS: 3.1.3", what should i do? Little bit scary to start updating: hosts edited etc.
This guide worked perfect.
Thanks
I have the same problem like pinakin_2006:

denebola's custom IPSW worked for me. Saved me a lot of time as i got my iphone 3gs after the 3.1.2 sigs where removed so i couldnt backup to cydia server. Anyway if you get "software not compatible" error just use 7zip to extract the IPSW inside the IPSW to your desktop and then run restore through itunes. Worked like a charm. Thanks Denebola!
Hi,
i have iphone 3G[s] with 3.1.2 firmware (week 51 – out of luck)
when i bought the phone i was blackra1ning it and in cydia i "made my life easier"…
the device was pending TSS for 2 weeks, and now it say that "this device have SHSHs on file for iphone os: 3.1.3".
how come it was shsh'ing for 3.1.3 and not for 3.1.2? will i be able to restore original 3.1.2 firmware if needed?
thank for the help.
pargit
if anyone is gettin an error code when trying to JB after getting 3.1.2 on to their iphone TRY BLACKRA1N it worked great for me! i tried to used quickpwn and pwnage but to no luck!
Thanks a lot for the guide, I had to switch my phone off due to a network upgrade and it tried to update me to 3.1.3. Now I'm back with a jailbroken phone and a grin on my face you couldn't take off with sandpaper.
"the iphone "iphone" could not be restored. this device isnt eligible for the requested build" means you're still talking to apple, not the alternative IP.
If you're sure you did it right (use a ping) then check for a transparent proxy server upstream (maybe find a techie friend if this is too hard!) as they will resolve gs.apple.com all over again.
When I alter the"host " file and try to connect to iTunes I get an error to the effect that Itunes cannot access my phone if I then go back and undo the alteration to the "host" file and then try to connect to Itunes it immediately starts the restore process and I'm on my way back to jail with 3.1.3.. Maybe Apple has done its usual trick of countering our freedom seeking community again. I know this a game to us but to this Corporation loosing to us will cost them millions. They walk a thin line called "Unfair Trade Practices".
If they would allow VOIP over 3G I might even loose interest in this game.
Somebody tries to be intelligent…
T-MONEY
I normally dont leave comments but I followed the instructions above to the "T" and my 3gs firmware 7d11 was restored back to factory settings the first time. Kudos to the person/people responsible for this very simple and easy to understand step by step tutorial. Thanks a MILLION.

the iphone "iphone" could not be restored. this device isnt eligible for the requested build".

i have used blackra1n to jailbreak and unlock before, but for some reasons when i turned off my iphone and then turn back on, there was boot logo "usb and itunes" have to put the iphone into the recovery mode. if i want to pass by this boot logo, i have to use blackra1n to start up the iphone for everytime i turn off/on the phone……that's really suck….that's why i want to restore to 3.1.2 then try use redsn0w in stead of blackra1n………
is there any suggestions???? please help me…..thanks
My situation:
Got a Iphone 3gs 16gb Firmware: 3.1.2, 5.11.07
–> Restore with Itunes: Itunes wants to put the newest firmware 3.1.3 on it but of course i want to keep 3.1.2 so I downloaded this firmware –> "This device isn´t eligible for the requested build."
the reason i want to restore because i just used the blackra1n to jailbreak before. now, everytime i turn off the phoen and then turn back on, it showed the boot logo (usb and itunes), it put me into the recovery mode, then tried the step described above, but there was error….
So, i have to used blackra1n to boot the phone for everytime i want to turn off/on the phone….this really bad….is there any ways to avoid this? thanks in advance

I Used Redsn0w & Blacksn0w earlier to JB & unlock it. But,due to wifi & other issues I used the RESET the iPHONE & it bricked. Unable to restore…any advise please ?

i jailbroke my Iphone 3g and had 3.1.2 ShSH saved on cydia. However, my 3G was stolen and I recently purchased a 3GS that came with stock 3.1.3 and it is obviously it is a newer MC model. Is it possible to downgrade to 3.1.2 and jailbreak my phone using the saved 3.1.2 information ? If not is there any other way for me to tether my phone to share My phones 3G connection or internet on my Laptop. There are lots of reasons why I LOVE being free from my Apples grasp but this is one of them.
Can anybody help

I got my iphone and jailbreak it through Blackra1n. When i open the Cydia it says: this device has SHSHs on file for iphone OS: 3.1.3
Worked like a charm and all these days i have not switch off my wifi but yesterday when i switched off my wifi in the office. After going home when i was trying to connect my wifi – No network issue occurred. After reading on net found that i need to reset my network by going to Genera–> network and then reset Network. After doing that imy phone restarted and went to recovery mode (on Screen USB wire picture). I then try to run Blackra1n and geohot face comes on the screen and later it goes back to recovery mode.
I have never updated my iphone to 3.1.3. Can anybody help me out without updating my iphone to 3.1.3 how to solve this issue?
Whole night was wasted in this

I updated the sorik server IP address on my hosts file in Mac. I tried restoring the downloaded framework 3.1.2 to my iphone by pressing Alt+restore (Mac user) it says file isn’t eligible for this device.
When I used the same file on pwnage and created another file and when I am using that file to restore it throws 1604 error message.
Whole night was wasted in this
I will appreciate if there will be and workaround for this without restoring my phone to 3.1.3.
siddhverm I had the exact issue!!!!
Unfortunately, thats all you see for this kind of problem..Reset Network setting..which is completely wrong
There should be a forum that strictly states "If your wifi stops working do not perform a network reset but just reboot your iphone".
I found this out the hard way just like you. All I had to do was just reboot my iphone for the wifi to come back on not a network reset. I ended up returning my iphone (after restoring 3.1.3) & got a new one that luckly still had the 3.1.2 firmware.
So after JB'ing tmy new phone he samething happened, no wifi …so I just rebooted my iphone using SBSsettings and BAM my wifi came back on.
I read somewhere on here where someone was able to fix there phone w/out restoring theu itunes. Once I find it I will post it so there might still be luck

This worked great up until yesterday. I lost my wifi connection in work and could not connect properly to the wireless router. After many attempts I decided to reset my network by going to Genera–> network and then reset Network. After doing that imy phone restarted and went to recovery mode (on Screen USB wire picture). I then try to run Blackra1n and geohot face comes on the screen and later it goes back to recovery mode. I can't get out of this loop!!! It keeps rebooting first showing the apple logo, then the recovery mode then geohot and then does the same all over again.

I changed the extension and tried changing the properties on what it should open with and I can't seem to make it into a recognized restore file for my iphone. Im reall stuck now and need some help.

when i am using notepad after entering"74.208.10.249" i am told "cannot create file make sure the path and file name are correct". what is the correct method of entering?
I tried everything and it's working fine until I got to itunes. It seems to want to upgrade my iphone to 3.1.3
I heard that 3.1.3 will mess my jail break/unlock. Should I continue or is there any trick around itunes, so I can I continue with 3.1.2 restore?
Worked for me. Thanks so much. My phone locked up. After trying to jailbreak it a few times with no success I decided that my phone needed to be restored. So happy I had loaded Cydia on my phone with the SHSH on file.
I had already jailbreaked and unlocked using Blackra1n. I never updated to 3.1.3.
Just wan to ask.. how to get the SHSH file? I think d reason i cant restore is because SHS file went on missing.. can anybody aid me?? Follow d steps but when reach verifying wif apple.. It says dat not eligible..
Force using DFU recovering oso failed.. hmmmm. I currently using 3GS 3.1.2 7D11 JB before… the thing different wif this guide is… when i open Cydia, on top shows that "this device has SHSHs on file for iPhone OS: 3.1.3" instead of 3.1.2… guidance from all the pros pls… T_T

Thanks so much everyone for your advice on this issue. My 3gs 16g 3.1.2 iphone just went into recovery mode for some reason. I tried to use Blackrain (make it rain) but it will not work, sauriks face does not appear on my iphone, just the connect to usb/ituens screen appears.
I tried restoring through itunes with the 3.1.2 firmware but get the message that everyone else gets "your device cannot be restored, the device isn’t eligible for the requested build"
I did not upgrade to 3.1.3 yet. This is the first time I ever encountered this. Can someone please explain to me the best action I should take? Unfortunately, when I jailbroke my iphone and did the shsh it was for the 3.1.3 not 3.1.2.
Thanks in advance everyone
Also, I just want it jailbroke to download things from cydia, I do not need it unlocked since I am thru At&T.
thx!
I hate when I know that this question may have been already answered. I've read that the only way to JB the iphone 3GS with fv 3.1.3 is only if you saved the backup of fv 3.1.2, is this true?

Something that would be a good idea to add to this guide: iTunes needs to be shut down before you save the host file, or it wont work. Some PCs may need to be rebooted as well after saving the host file, before continuing. Doing that fixed my problem during the authentication phase.

i have iphone 3gs fw 3.1.2 (7d11) modem fw 5.11.07 JB with blackra1n & in cydia i have SHSHs on file for 3.1.3 I can`t restor 3.1.2 to use spirit pls help
I do that but according to restoring got ERRor 1015, what can I solve it?
please somebody help me
I apologize if someone has already posted this, but I did not see it when reading through this forum. Anyhow, I downgraded my firmware from 3.1.3 to 3.1.2 on my 3GS (after I had accidentally upgraded to 3.1.3 through itunes) however, the baseband did not downgrade. It stayed at 05.12.01 & now I am unable to unlock it!!! So my question is, what's the point of having SHSHs on file to downgrade firmware? Just to jailbreak? But that can be done through Spirit much quicker than this whole process and that can be done on 3.1.3. I thought the point of SHSHs was to be able to unlock your iPhone again after accidentally upgrading to 3.1.3. I tried adding blacksn0w on cydia to unlock & nothing happened…I also tried ultrasn0w and nada….

Hi everybody, i have an iphone 3gs 16gb w/fw 3.1.2 & baseband 5.11.07, jailbraking w/blackra1n. Last nite, after updating TWC app (the wether channel) I restarted the device and the white apple comes!! Ok, don't despair, I do have the SHSHs file on Cydia for 3.1.2.
I do everything as posted here, change host file (74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com), enter DFU (method posted here home button for 20sec, with a plug and an itunes icon on iphone screen; and DFU with total turned off screen) using iTunes 9.1.1.12 (9.0.0.70 too) on windows 7 and XP, on 2 different pc's and nothing, itunes gave me 3194 error, "this device isn't eligible for the requested build".
Does this happen to anybody o you?
What I think is wrong is the redirection by host file (by the way, I checked and works great with other IP ex. google's IP 209.85.195.104). I think Apple changed its redirection of gs.apple.com, or something is not working well here.
Well, I hope to hear stories about your experience with this, good stories I hope. Thanx!!

my cydia has a 3.1, 3.1.2, 3.1.3 SHSHs, will i be able to downgrade?
my only question would be, is it save to use the new itunes 9.2 or do i need to uninstall it and install another vercion?…………………………..
any one that have error 1015 this is the solution,
just click ok, then just ran the blackra1n, and you should be OK
that is what i did, and now my iphone is 3.1.2 from 3.1.3
going to try update to 4.0 now
I am going to try the Same thing, StormRobot…..
I am Spirit JB'd… with stock apple 3.1.3
I am going to try to restore to 3.1.2 FW through Cydia (i am stuck on 3.1.3 baseband as this post states)
then i will run Blackra1n…..
Then I will update via the sn0wbreeze method…
here goes…..
There are no .ipsw files in the link given in the guide for 3.1.2 firmware.
Here's some info for those having trouble downgrading from 4.0 to 3.1.2 for jailbreaking with sn0wbreeze porpuses….
if you are getting a 1015 error after downgrading on itunes, and your phone is still showing the itunes icon and cable on the screen, DO NOT PANIC!, just blackra1n your phone and 3.1.2 will be working right away.
btw, if you will be using blackra1n you MUST save blackra1n.exe on this folder "C:Program FilesCommon FilesAppleApple Application Support" otherwise you will get a error about a DLL missing.
Once you do that you can just create your custom ipsw with sn0wbreeze as intructed on here…
http://modmyi.com/guides/how-jailbreak-iphone-3gs-4-0-sn0wbreeze-windows/
hope that tip helps, after hours and hours trying it , i finally got mine jailbreakd.
ABSOLUTELY works like a charm! I stupidly updated to ios 4.0 and lost my JB. Luckily i had my SHSH file on Cydia. I did the restore, received the 1015 error message, ran blackra1n and back to 3.1.2!
One thing, if blackra1n keeps failing and saying that certain .dll files don't exist, just move the blackra1n installer to C:/ProgramFiles/CommonFiles/Apple/AppleApplicationSupport/ and run it there.
Thanks everyone!
This does work, but after downgrading to 3.1.2, I have no service. Also, when trying to restore from backup in 3.1.2, itunes comes back with a message, saying that the software is too old to update, must update to 4.0. Anyone else have this trouble?
which version of itunes do i need ???
ive had all jailbreaks this isnt my first and im positive that im on file but i keep getting that 1015 error saying i cant. im kinda upset cause i thought i would be good but im not. hopefully they come out wit the new firmware jailbreak soon. im in need!!!

worked perfect no problems
Does not work. I got error code 23 after "Preparing iPhone for restore".
Anyone can help?
Wow, I understand how to do everything and have done it correctly, i'm getting error 3019 which i have not seen anyone else post about, hopefully someone can help! ty
i phone 3GS 4.0 can downgrade to 3.1.2?
I'm on 3.0.1 can I upgrade to 3.1.2 to this option?
I bought this iphone 3GS and it's already officially upgraded to iOS 4.0 through itunes. Is there anyway I can jailbreak it or unlock it?
I have searched everywhere in the net, but it seems that without having the SHSH blobs (which is my case here), it's still impossible to jailbreak it
Please if you know anyway to jailbreak iphone 3GS with official iOS 4.0 and with no SHSH blobs, let me know or direct me to a link.
It really sucks to own a phone that u can't really use :

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.
Thx =)
