  • IMPORTANT :

    For everyone who is stuck at "no firmaware download ...6000ms" and "searching..."problem here is what I did :

    1- restore your iphone to ios 5.0.1 with the original firmware not the customized one.

    2-jailbreak using redsn0w , and check install ipad baseband and install cydia.

    3- install ultrasn0w.

    i tried it with my iphone 3gs ios 5.0.1 bb 6.15.00 and its unlocked and jailbroken.

  • thank u sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oo much u saved me man seriously i am gonna make a donation be sure of that

  • Thanks big time for this Video, was getting scared after crash and had to restore my 3GS which I have for a while now.

  • will this work on my 3gs which has already been jailbroken? i upgraded my 3gs to whatever that is in itunes. and it says, no sim card.

  • for some reason it did not work

    and know it wont turn on now Scared

  • or do i need to remove it

  • can i keep the sim card in the tray

    

  • thx dude its really works thaks alot :))))

  • hey, my iphone is working again thanks to you, but like yours the Cydia won't install correctly and the safari don't work. what should I do?

  • você é foda!

  • i followed all the steps and i still cant get past the sim screen, it says "SIM not valid",, HELP PLEASE!!!! ASAP!!!

  • are you that guy for breaking bad?

  • @Dainelli100 LOL.

  • this saved my life, thank you so much may god bless you !

  • mate you really save my life after three days of struggle!!!!! cheers

  • dude i went through all that only to be told my sim card is not supported

  • mine wont turn on now. I followed all the steps up to 12 minute mark in your video. When it finished the pineapple screen, it turned off then showed the apple then it freezes on the rotating time clock thing.... please help me !!!

  • Holy S***! IT WORKS!!

  • can you use a sim card that is not active?

  • I have the same problem on 4.1 same BB and 3GS if i choose that will it work for me?

  • @icrack96 i have 5.0.1 but in theory it doesn't matter which version you have as long as you flash the BB again using redsn0w and have the proper IPSW loaded into it, it should make it so the phone reads SIM cards again..

  • Great work. It worked for me. I have a 3GS iphone with that same BB so I didn't know what the problem was! Turns out you have to flash it again using redsn0w.. You're explanation was very clear and I just want to thank you for doing this.

  • You are Amazing Ian! :D Thanks a million bro! :) God Bless! :) Worked in India too :D

  • @ian559fresno how do i do that

  • its work thnks dude....

    

  • @Nherwyziant You're the retard that can't even follow simple steps. Your YouTube channel shows that you copy other people's work and claim it as your own. That's because you're too stupid to make stuff yourself and need to steal other peoples work.

  • @Nherwyziant Sucks not being creative enough to make your own videos. If you cant make your own videos and need to steal from the producers then more than likely you're too stupid to follow simple step-by-step directions. :)

  • @Nherwyziant Are you fucking stupid. Tell me why it doesn't work? That's right dumbshit...I'm teaching u how to jailbreak it...wtf last time I checked installing the iPad baseband was to unlock not to jailbreak..isn't this searching problem caused by baseband corruption? Yeah that's what I though dumbass

  • thank you man this saved me a lot of time and monny

  • I have iPhone 3GS ipad baseband ios 5.0.1, Windows 7 32bit, use redsn0w 0.9.9b4. Do same as you, and when trying select ipsw i see this - Unsupported IPSW is not supported by this version of redsn0w. Which version need to use for full working?

  • I am using iphone4

    and i got the same problem.

    It display "Searching".

    Under setting i see no WIFI, no Bluetooth, and blank in baseband.

    I can not event make the SOS call "112".

    :'(:'(:'(:'(:'(:'(:'(:'(:'(

    So I would like to ask you will your video save my iPhone4?

    I am looking forward to hear from you as soon as possible,

    Best Regards,

  • At last!!! Thanks a lot man, youre a life saver.

  • You are hero.. My iPhone 3GS stuck @ No Service for last two months (right after I upgraded to iOS 5.x). I have been searching for solutions and paying monthly bills without using phone. I went to Apple Store but they asked me to throw the phone as it is gone. Your video helped me to bring my 3GS back in service. Thank you very much.

  • Hallo my friend please tell does it work on 5.0.1

  • it dosnt fix no service you idiot ? you it just jailbreak guide retarded kid ...

  • @Pl0x100 are you stupid. You think 400 just liked this video for the hell of it. And I cant even understand what you're trying to say. You're calling me a retard yet you spelled "dosn't" wrong, used a question mark wrong, and the last part doesn't even make sense.

  • @ian559fresno dude lisent i have a ihpone 3gs with no service and i tryed that and i still just have no signal it only get jailbreaked by this video thats what im trying to say sorry 4 the lang i just had a bad day i tryed to fix my iphone in 4 months now and no guide give any help ....

  • @ian559fresno He means that it didn't fix the 'No Service' problem. You just taught us how to jailbreak it. And you are retarded too.

    That's what he said. Obviously, it's understandable, just common sense. This video didn't help. You sir, truly retarded.
