The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella: FixRecovery Updated - 4.3 supported
i have done this method twice now and both times it has broken coding in my phone app
meaning; right after i hang up on a phone call a screen will pop up showing "call failed".. at first i thought it might have been a bug with LockInfo since a majority of these calls were from my favorites in the lockscreen.. unfortunately it would happen from any place i made a phone call
then towards the end of the day i was dropping calls when and where i never have before.. jailbreaking is fun and all but when it interferes with the performance/workability of the device it's time to take a hard look at priorities
anyone else have any issues with this method?
FixRecovery Updated - 4.3 supported
I've set up a couple downloads for the external fixrecovery app (based on the amazing greenpois0n by Chronic-Dev) These zip files contain windows and osx executables for 4.2.1 and 4.3. Unfortunately, there isn't currently a way for me to put all of this in a single executable. I'm working on packaging this all together with TinyUmbrella but it's tedious since it requires separate executables currently. I'll clean that up soon. I just wanted you all to have the ability to RESTORE your iPhone 4 to 4.3 and keep your 01.59 baseband and be able to get out of the ensuing recovery loop.
USAGE:
Once you've restored your device to 4.2.1 or 4.3 and have entered the dreaded 'recovery loop'
KILL ITUNES
Put your device into DFU
Run the appropriate executable ie. fixrecovery421 for 4.2.1
...???
Profit - you should see the activation screen shortly...
Note that this app does /NOT/ hactivate. You must have a valid/official sim to activate your phone.
