i understand ur problem....
first u wanna plug ur phone into itunes...
then after that... hold the sleep and home button UNTIL ur phone DISAPPEARS from itunes... RIGHT AFTER ur phone disappears from itunes, let go of the sleep button but keep holding the home button until ur phone pops up into itunes again... ur phone should have a black screen and ur itunes should say "detected iphone in recovery mode" and click "ok"
after that, restore it into 1.1.1....
i'm guessing u know how to do that...
u should get an error at the end (1015)
click "ok"
then close itunes and go to ziphone or ijailbeak or independence.... watever u prefer... then click "activate", "jailbreak", and "unlock"...
activate is very important
or if ur on ziphone... just click "do it all"
then just wait....
at the end u should have wat ur goin for!

tell me if this works for u!
plz let me know
