Hello all,

I read about downgrading from 3.0 to 1.1.4. I stupidly decided to do it, because I wanted to change IMEI and the current firmware I had's (3.0) WiFi wouldn't work.

I followed all the steps of downgrading, and when complete, all that will show up on my iPhone is the activation screen (frozen). I can get past this, but only after iErasing the baseband with kiPhone. After erasing baseband, I don't get any type of service. I know this is b/c of lack of bb...

But I try to restore/upgrade in iTunes and I get either error 23 or 5.

I read about virginizing, but idk how that's possible or how to find the files w/o WiFi on the iPhone :((

HELPPPP!!! Please!! Does anyone have any solutions???
 
Wow, sounds like you really screwed it up.
Maybe get it into DFU and see if that helps

lol. yeah dude i think you are the first person to successfully fully brick an iphone. i mean i think u actually turned it into an actual brick, not like when people brick their phones and its possible to restore them with different methods such as dfu mode and stuff, but i mean YOU REALLY TURNED IT INTO A BRICK! well atleast now you have the coolest paper weight in the world.
