So I finally got my iPhone 4 unlock processed by AT&T today, but I've run into a little issue in trying to keep my jailbreak while updating my unlock on the phone itself. Everything I've seen online mentions that if you have an untethered jailbreak, you can avoid having to restore (which is usually necessary to process the unlock) by using the Deactivate feature in redsn0w.

The problem is, when I try to follow the steps to do that, redsn0w tells me that my phone is already jailbroken using rocky racoon (installed via the Absinthe jailbreak) and won't allow me to go any further. Has anyone else run into this issue? Any solution short of a full restore?

Solved. In case anyone else is wondering, the solution is to simply power down the phone before running redsn0w.
